Another Attraction Added

The Charlotte Observer thinks that
by raising peanuts here it will cause
the southern tourist to finger lon
ger among the beautiful mountains.
This is what it says:
"A correspondent of The Hender-
sonville Hustler suggests the FEAST
-bility Of raising peanuts in that al
ready favored section. If the luscious
COOLERS are added to. its products,
Henderson county would probably be
'overrun by the larger and more dis
eliminating portion of the popuIa-
ton of South Carolina the year round
instead of during few months only,
as at present.
Let 'um come we are going to raise
everything here.
