Jeffersonikeeds at Once, a Building
and Loan Association.

The first question asked by
parties seeking information of
Jefferson is: what do dwellings
rent for, and can good, comfor-
table dwellings, be had? This is
a hard question for me to ans
wer, for it is a well known fact
that there isn't a rent dwelling
to be had in Jefferson and this is
going to be great drawback
When new Corners want to locate
among us, we should get busy
and not overlook this most inn
pOrtant move and arrange by
which dwellings could be put up
on short notice.
What Jefferson needs and
never needed as much before is
a Building an Loan Association.
Who will start this good move?
Why not organize a stock com
pany to build homes for new
corners!

JEFFERSON WANTS
An OIL MILL

nv UUb WJbL
No city in the State III Texas
offers more inducements or more
natural advantages for al Oil
Mill than the city of Jefferson.
We have Cypress River which
has never been known to run dry
and will afford water the year
round for fire protection and
which can't be excelled for boil.
crS.
We have excellent railroad ia
cilities, the r & p, NJ X & T.,
and j & n W., which would en-.
able us TO get seed from neigh
boring counties and afford every
convenience and service for
marketing the products of the
mill. Jefferson receives enough
seed which is shipped to other
mills, that would easily operate
three or four press mill four
months in the year, which would
work at least fifty men, with a
monthly pay roll of from So, 900
to $4,000 and the seed that is
marketed here now with the ad-
ditional seed which an oil mill
in Jefferson would bring here
from other counties, would total
an outlay of at least from $780,,
600 to 100000. This would be
bought and paid for right here
in Jefferson and the greater part
thereof would be spent with our
Jefferson merchants.
An oil mill could also, with
small additional expense and out
lay for machinery, operate
thresher and huller for peanuts,
and encourage the farmer to
plant on a large scale peanuts,
knowing that every pound raised
would find ready market at the
Jefferson oil mill, thereby open
ing up new industry and farm
product that has been sadly
neglected.
Jefferson is conceded by feed
ers of cattle to be the best point
to feed and fatten cattle any
where between the far west and
Chicago. and with an oil mill
here, we would have no trouble
at all to induce some cattle deal
to feed here, for we have pastur-
es of bermuda grass and running
water. two of the most essential
needs for cattle.
If our Progressive Club will
put forth their best efforts and
subscribe at least half the stock
necessary for an oil mill, | feel
confident that | will be able to
induce several experienced oil
mill men with strong financial
backing, from South Carolina to
come here in the near future
with the purpose Of locating an
oil mill in Jefferson. But to get
these parties interested to make
the trip here it will be necessary
for our citizens to take firm
stand and say positively if they
want an oil mill. If they do, how
much stock will the citizens Of
Jefferson take in an oil mill? To
sesure an enterprise of this kind,
which would mean so much to
Jefferson, it would be absolutely
necessary for our citizens 10 take
the initiative, for remember that
Charity begins at home. " What
will you do?
