variety in Advertising.

A writer in one of the adyer-
tisers' magazines says that a ceF-
tain type Of advertisement is
about as interesting as a heap OF
clam shells in a vacant lot. The
kind of lad" he is criticising is
the sterotyped, cut-and-dried
'tcard," which still represents the
most advanced form of publicity
in the conception of some business
men. it is safe to say no adver-
tisement is a good advertisement
which merely makes known the
existence of the business it ex-
ploits. The public is not inter
ested In the fact that the business
exists-ft wants to knew why it
exists. The "card" does not tell.
The space it occupies on the page
of a newspaper can always be
used to better advantage in Civ
ing the advertiser some real news
about the advertiser business
than in presenting to his attention
an enlarged extract from a page
of the city directory.

Corn In The West.

A member of the State Board Of
agriculture, after examining the con-
dition of several state test farms in
western North Carolina, declares his
deliberate belief that there is enough
potash in the soil of that section to
asst for 400 years and that the far
ners should give their attention to
nther forms of fertilizer. He found
plat in Pennsylvania county
which had made an interesting re-
cord. For five years successfully it
lad been planted in corn with increas-
ing yields per acre ranging from 16
bushels the first year to SO the last
and this without the use of any ccm-
mercial fertilizer except acid phos-
been laid by, crimson clover had been
sown, and this had done the trick.
The Scriptural description of "hills
laughing with corn" (meaning wheat,
"cweverl seems to no in a fair wav
. be made most %pointedly applicable
TO our western counties. With tho
-ich natural potash contained in the
-oil and the improved science which
's now being devoted to the profess

SAYS HE WANTS A BABY SHOW.
Editor Hustler:

'OlIOl I1uSI1C1
The supreme and ~unquestioned su-
oeriority of Hendersonville babies to
all other babies. not only in the South
hu' in the world, is no longer ques-
toned.
If it were, the question would soon
be settled by a jury of Hendersonville
mothers.
Now, would not this summer be an
excellent time to have a baby show
held here?
Let the competition be open to the
Notwithstanding Columbia which is
IN South Carolina.
While the conclusion of the fair and
impartial jury which would have the
awarding of the valuable prizes, is, of
course, a foregone conclusion, still it
would afford the thousands of visitors
here in August a chance to see what a
really pretty baby looks like.
The competition should be open to
all babies, single babies or twin
babies, boys or girls, from two weeks
old to four years.
Please agitate this important and
interesting matter through the col
umns of the Daily Herald and thereby
confer a favor upon many fearless
parents of Hendersonville.

Commercial Club Active Agency.

GA0A O4uO AOGANC ASCMCyO
Not much has been heard of the
Commercial club of late but that by
no means indicates that the club is
not active in it's efforts to further Hen
dersonville's every interest.
Secretary Drake has score of COM
munications on file in his office from
people all over the country who are
interested in this town. There is a Mr..
Moore and his family here now from
Florida as a direct result of the clubs
efforts through Mr.. Drake.
Mr.. Dwight Little of Salisbury, Nd,
writes inQuiring about trucking pros
poets here, and he may finally settle
here.
Mr.. j. A. O'Brien of New Orleans,
has been carrying on an extensive o r
r~espondence with the secretary as to
the d~esirability of H~endersonville as
a summer homeland he writes rs one
who means business.
General Passenger Agent G.. H. Cat
tbs of the Georgia and Florida Railway
has been furnished with photographs
of Hendersonville scenes for adver-
Using purposes. This is a new field
for this town to enter and will RESULT
beneficially.
There are stacks and stacks of sim
liar letters on file in the secretary's
Office, all of them answered and many
of them to result in adding to Hender-
sonville's summer or permanent pop
ulation.
The Commercial club was formed
to advance the interest of this town
and it is certainly doing just what it
was organized to do. It's field is large
and wisely directed efforts will bring
forth a great harvest.

Lincoln Beachey Makes Success
full Biplane Flight Over the
Falls.
Niagara Falls, N. Y. June e7.-
With the whir of his biplane motor
drowned in the roar of the catar-
act and man and machine moiren-
tarily obscured in spray and
mist, Lincoln Beachey, the Cali
fornia av ator yesterday after
circling above the falls, swooped
beneath the arches of the upper
steel bridge and &c wn tte gorge
almost to the whirlpool. Rising
again between the preclptious
sides of the lower river Beachey
scared to the Canadian side,
where he made a successful land
ing. 1t was the first time that a
bird man had cut through the air
currents and mist clouds and leap
ing form caused by Niagra Falls
and rapids that have lured so
many adventures to their death.
Throngs on the American and
Canadian shores gazed with fas-
cination at the aviator. as he rose
to a height of about 1000 feet,
twice circled above the cataract
and then made the long swoop to-
ward the narrow passage under
the bridge. His biplane came rae
ing over the horseshoe falls so
low that he was lost to view for
an instant and then winged close
to the water. It seemed almost
to skim the water as he made the
bridge passage.
Beachey continued on down the
gorge almost to the Whirlpool rap
ids, clearing the water by not
more than 80 feet, before soaring
aloft again.
cit was the most exciting trip
Of my hfe," said Beachey.
The space through which he
few is 1913 feet in height and bareJ
" 100 feet from side to side. The
distance from the brink of the
salls to the. bridge in which he
made the dip is about 400 yards.

UNNECESSARY TO LEAVE FARM.

Old People Not Compelled to Move to
City If Boy Wishes to Stay and Run
Things.
Much has been said about keeping
the boy on the farm. But what will
become of the old folks if the boy
does stay on the farm? 1t is not
necessary for them to give up the
arm entirely and move to town as
many of them are doing.
Director A. M. Ten Eyck, of the FIT.
lays experiment station, in a lecture
. his class in farm management at
the Kansas State Agricultural college
recently, said: 81 don't believe that
one-half of the retired farmers that
move to town r satisfied. Some of
them know that they won't be salts
led before they move, but they feel
that they must get out of the way and
give the boy a chance. / think they
'~e mistaken. The farmer can build
mother home for himself or for the
10y On some other part of the farm.
TIL IN, While the boy is running the
arm, his parents can take it easy
at is no longer necessary to move
. town to get the modern convent
ences Of living.
at is to the interest of the farming
community as a whole to keep the
older men on the farm. The man
who o to town loses sight of the
'1terests of the community he lived
n and the community loses by it"

Evidently in anticipation Of this ac-
ton by the commission, practically

August 1, which are believed to be
material reductions in rates. 1t was

with those now in existence.
It also was announced that the fl

will be conducted as to rate, but

BIG CkUp OF
More Than Ten Cars Of Huckber-

MORE IMAM len OdTS O
ries Shipped North Past Week.
Rocky Mount, June 28.-OyeT
ten cars of blue huckleberries from
the Faison and A. and Y districts
of the Atlanta Coast Line have
been shipped north within the
past week and it appears that In
the words of a correspondent from
Faison recently: When the
people of a community can go out
in the<woods and bring to market
huckleberries that sell for $1,925
in one day, verify they have no
cause to fear perishing.'
This one day s work in no meas
ure accounts for the ten ears al
ready routed north, but instead
it is thought that the Faison ship
ment referred to, which was on
Saturday last, is only a very
small per cent. of the large buckle
berry crop that is now being ship
ped north by the people of that
section. The reports of the At
lantic Coast Line do not show
at this year Faison has been the
banner huckleberry market, but
instead Autreyville, Sampson
county, comes in for the honor
and there have already been pos
sibly half a dozen refrigerator
cars that contained the berries
that have been routed from this
small station to the north.

Your Uncle Sam Has Surplus of $685..
Washington Star.
One of the American characters
disappearing from the world
stage is the ""hayseed." He still
inhabits. the comic supplement
and the Imagination of people
reared in pent-up flats, but he is
nearly extinct in the hamlet, the
cross roads general store and the
village post Office. The daily
newspaper, the daily mail, the
rural delivery, the telephone and
the trolley have nearly annihilat-
ed him. Though some gentlemen
continue to wear trousers tucked
in boot tops, to nibble a straw
and to white fragrant silvers Of
white pine. the real "rube'' is
getting rare. He is now general
ly found in the cities-the best
places for the sale of mining
stocks, oil stocks, coffee planta-
ton stocks, rubber-growing com
pany stocks, gilt bricks and other
quick ways of breaking into the
millionaire class.
One Of the recent developments
of country life is the organiza-
ton of farmers dining clubs.
Think of Uncle Josh, by heck, as
a clubman! This country life is
the organization of farmers din
ing clubs. Think of Uncle Josh.
by heck, as a clubman! This far
mers' dining club idea appears to
have originated in Kansas, the
parent state of many strange
ideas. And this particular idea.
as strange ideas commonly do in
Kansas, seems to spread. And
every one knows, especially a
number of stand-patters, that
when a strange idea begins to
spread in Kansas it keeps on
spreading.
AT these farmers clubs there is
a good dinner-no light lunch.
mind you-but a plentora of boil
ed and baked food-meat, pota-
toes, cabbage, green's, aye, and
perhaps onions. too. After the
dinner cigars are served-cigars
not made of hemp-none of your
Savannah ref1ectors with long al
falfa filler and jimson weed wrap
pers-but a real cigar that a man
can smoke without waking up the
board of health, Shades of Uncle
Sails, Uncle Reuben and Uncle
Hezekiah, and their corncob pipes
with stems of reed!
After dinner the agricultural
clubmen make speeches. This is
a human failing. Life would be
happier for all men who have to
listen if other men did not insist
on making speeches, but some men
are always Indifferent to the club
