SAVANNAH, Tenn, Nov. %
Hon. T. w. Sims has advised the ap-
plicants for the position of post
master here that as there are num-
Der of his adherents DESTROYS OF Sc
curing the position, and that as he
prefers to keep the friendship OF all,
he feels that it will be to the best in
terests of all that a primary be held,
and that the people most concerned
select their own postmaster. While
there are several other aspirants, the
following are the ones whom 1t now
seem smost probable will enter the
primary: L. v. Sewer, R. L. Hamil-
ton, TT. Atkins, c. v. Weller, ]. E.
Meredith and T. J. Welch. From the
talk heard so far it seems that the
election will be hot one and the
running close. No announcement
has as yet been made as to who
shall be eligible to vote, nor any
plans made as to the time or manner
of voting.

FARM OF HENRY A. MOORE is AC.
CURED BY TWO HICKMAN
COUNTY FARMERS.
SPLENDID PRICE IS PAID

the County Will Be Utilized BY En-
terprising Farmers for the Raising
of Stock-Well Equipped.


Henry Arch Moore has sold his fine
farm on the Santa Fe pike to Messrs.
w. H. Cisco and o. d. Aydelotte, both
of Hickman county. The price paid
was $4,000 or $500 per acre. These
gentlemen have sold their farms on
Swan creek and came to Maury coun-
ty for the purpose of buying farm
close to Columbia, the greatest mule
market in the South. Mr. Aydelotte
is Mr.. Cisco's son-in-law and they
will make their home together. They
are both enterrrsing stock men and
will be a great asset to Maury county
The farm they have bought is one
of the best in the state for their bust
ness and is equipped with one of the
finest mule barns in the south This
barn was recently built at a cost Of
SO, 500 and is equipped with three
hay carriers, two large silos, thirty

progressive farmers and this old coun

is coming and the rural carriers can

about these conditions. But he must
be progressive carrier; he must not
be satisfied to sit still and wait fol
things to come to him: he must &c

must do his duty as a carrier and
then he must do his duty to his fami
lily by striving to get what he should
have.

SURVEYING DONE BY
FATHER OF NATION
IS STILL VISIBLE
WORK OF GEORGE WASHINGTON
DONE WHEN HE WAS ONLY
NINETEEN.
FOR LORD FAIRFAX OF ENGLAND
Lines Run With Primitive instru-
ments With Bonfires on the Hills
Are Found to Be Perfectly Cor
rect by Government Experts.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-George
Washington's surveying, done in 1851
when as lad of nineteen he ran lines
with chain and compass through the
wilderness of the Virginia hills for
Lord Fairfax, has been checked up by
government surveyors who have just
made their reports and who found
the work Of the immortal patriot per-
feet.
Washington, running his lines with
primitive instruments and bonfires on
hill-tops, left monuments and bounda-
ries in which technical educated sur
veyors using high power transits and
all the refined and accurate methods
modern instruments allow have been
abe to find no variation.
From the top of Middle Mountain in
the Massanutton range the old Fair
fax line may be distinguished with
out the use of instruments and can
be followed by boundary fences dating
from the earliest days and by blocks
of timber which come up from the
county lines and stand out like
squares on a checker board. Down
across the valley of the south fork
of the Shenandoah as far as the eye
can distinguish the line shows plain
ly.
Washington's survey blazes cut
into the trunks of trees and long
grown over have been rediscovered
and are several feet higher from the
ground than the woodsmen of today
would make. Some authorities con
tend Washington made them from the
saddle with long handled ak.
The government has been retracins
the old lines because it is buying lane
through the territory which they rur
for the new Appalachian forest re
serve.

the bridge, had persisted nobly, as be-
came an officer Of France. A monu-
ment was to be erected in his honor
in the Champs Elysees. The land
rang with his name.
"Well?" inquired Sayard, looking
up with a smile. ....-.-.
'Wellr' reiterated the head of the
admiralty. do you not understand
that you are dead man? Mutiny on

they. That night he broke into his

Baking

One Of the most important things about
at the start; in fact, in using a gas, oil or
gasoline stove. it is not necessary to light
tho stove until the cake has been put in.
Then there should be very low flame at
first. After the cake has doubled in bulk,
increase the heat and bake until q brown
crust is formed and the center will respond
to the touch. Never allow crust to form
over cake before the batter has doubled.
In wood or coal range, have o veryAight
fire in the fire box. After the cake is in the
oven, replenish the fire and by the time it
has burned up the batter. will have
doubled and is ready for the hot oven to
finish it. 1t is impossible to specify the
length of time to bake cakes, for the larger
and thicker the layer, tho longer it takes
to bake.
