the town are unusually good, for a
town of its size. and the people seem
well satisfied with the progress the
town is making and arc confident of
the future. Last year 1900 bales OF
cotton, raised in the vicinity of the
town, was handled at the gin and ship
ped out by rail. Eoma has a good
hotel and automobile livery and is a
central point for travelling men who
desire 10 make the smaller places
throughout that section.
Two Canning Plants.

the vicinity OF Noma and q goodly

the Noma stores. Both Of these are

To Rave Water Works.
The town of Ponce de Leon some
time since levied a specla. tax to raise
a fund for the establishment of a
water works system for the benefit OF
residents and fire projection. The
amount collected under this tax levy
will be held in an Improvement fund
until a sufficient sum has been col
lected to enable the work on the wa
ter plant TO proceed. There is some
talk Of operating an electric light
ing plant in connection with one of the
ginneries, and II is considered highly
possible that this viii become an ac-
complished fact in the course of Il
short time. An ice plant, in conreC-
ton with the bottllng works is also a
possibility of the near future, and this
would prove a paying investment as
the cost OF ice at The present time is
rather high, in view OF freight charges
and meltage.
Many Fine Homes.
The population of the town proper
is in the neighborhood o. eight hun
bred, but there are several hundred
more in the immediate vicinity. There
are a number of fine homes in Ponce
de Leon and vicinity. several of which
are shown in the illustrations pub
lished in this edition of The Jour.
nal. A new brick store was recently
completed in the business section of
the town and a new building to be
occupied as a drug store is now being
erected a number of new homes and
business houses are in contemplation
and 1t is. more than probable that the
near future will see considerable in
crease in building activity in the town.
A new mill is being constructed by
the Vale Lumber Co. just west Of the
town and has sufficient timber to run
it for many years. The mill will give
to about 70 men con-
stantly. j. Fl. Long is manager.
Needs OF the Town.
The town of Ponce de Leon needs,
first of ali q bank, n institution with
about $4,000 capital. 1t also needs "a
cotton warehouse TO care for the i'm
mense amount of cotton that comes
in annually from the surrounding
farms and which, in connection with
a good bank, would prove a profitable
\ canning factory, to han
would do well at Ponce de Leon, and
a small IA Glory for the manufacture
Of furniture would also pay good div
idends. The town needs a bakery of
moderate capacity and it also needs Il
good blacksmith and wood-worker. An
all the-year hotel at Ponce de Leon
spring would pay well, and there is
some talk Of constructing a large tour
LIST resort at that point. There is also
need of a hardware store and cloth
Ing and furnishing establishment.
Business men looking for a suitable
location would do we'll to stop over at
Ponce de Leon and look the ground
