JACKSON CO.
''''''' S BOY KILLED.

On the 18th day of March, in
Douglas, Wyo., Zeb Bumgarner was
shot and instantly killed by Mrs.
Thos. A. Lamb. The causes Of the
tragedy are practically unknown.
Bumgarner was born and reared
in Jackson county. He went west
about seven years ago and has since
been employed by the stock raisers
of y)n ing.
He came from one Of Jackson
countys most prominent families.
He was the grand son of the late
Col. Alley. who was prominently
known in all the westesn counties,
and nephew of Solicitor Alley of
Waynesville. His parents, Mr. and
Mrs. A. C. Bumgarner. still reside in
Cashiers. 1t is understood that Mr..
Alley will 60 to Wyoming in the
near future to take an active part
in the prosecution of the guilty par
ties. 1t is hoped that he may have
the greatest success and that justice
may be measured out to her.
Young Bumgarner was an up
right and honorable youth during
his stay here. He was loved and
admired by all who knew him and
his life leaves the same sweet re-
cord among his newly made friends
, of the west.
He has been ever thoughtful of
his aged parents. He has donated
his entire earnings to their comfort
, and support.
The deceased leaves five brothers
and two sisters in this county to
: mourn thier loss. and one brother
. who was with him in the west. and
, is sill there working on the case
y, against his murderer.
~ The deceased was a member OF
~ the w. o. w. and in good standing
, His remains were brought to Cash
iers, N. c.. and laid to rest in thf
q Zachary cemetery, where the las
- - and final tribute of respect was
IL paid by the members of Cashier.

M BONDS FOR farm
LIFE SCHOOL.
COWAN'S OPINION.

In the event the election for Farm :
life School carries a question seems
70 have arisen as to whether bonds
unon the county will be issued in
consequence of the election. | have
had inquiries from various sections
asking my opinion upon this point.
take this method of answering.
NV answer is, that no bonds will be
issued and if an attempt were made
70 issue bonds none could be mark
eted all for the following reason:
First. The order calling and au-
thorizing the election expressly says
NO bonds will b, issued" the peo-
nIe vote under this order for an
election the authority granted IN
the event the election carries can
never rise higher than the terms OF
the call.
Second. Under the call for the
election TIE amount that can be
levied is restricted to &c. on the
500 valuation rnd 18c on the poll.
If the election carries, no greater
ononnt than this can ever be lev
led, and by the last paragraph OF
the order of the election this is re-
stricted by Interpretation to the
$500, the part Of the maintain
ance to be raised by the county.
Third. No bonds could ever be
marketed for the reason that nc
bonding company will consider the
purchase of bonds until the legality
of the same has first been passed
upon by the most reputable bond
;ne attorneys in the United States
No reputable bond Attorneys Woul(
ever pass bonds when the authorl
tvupon which the same is base'
especially says No bonds will b
jssned" Moreover, bond attorney
are rigidly exacting and would nc
be likely to recommend the pul
chase of bonds whe'e no provlslo
is made for the payment OF lntere'
or the final liquidation Of the sam
Fourth. The State Superlnten(
ant of Public Instruction, the Coul
ty Superintendent of Pubic lnstru
ton, the County Board of Educ
ton the County Commissioners al
Speakers in advocacy Of the far1
Life Schoo! have all said that
bonds will be issued in Jacks
County for this School. We ma
reached that honorable standard
the administration of public alta
when such solemn declarations G
be relied upon. By every standard
morals and manhood such rep
sentations become a part OF the |
perative law Of public act
and guidance.
The county already has substantl
ly those things which are requl
to be provided under the statu
by bond issue. The few TIM
which the county does not ha
can, by good managemnt, eooo
ement and cooperation OF
friends of the school, be supplleo
very small expense without
sorting to bond issue even tho
it were authorized. but for the
sons aforesaid, a bond issue IS
authorized.

brings. We keep our hogs until they Q
arestWo or three years old before we g
can secure a carcass of desirable I
size, while progressive farmers of 6
other sections kill hogs weighing {
two and three hundred pounds at {
ten to twelve months of age. We
prefer to raise worthless dogs in
stead of sheep. Our chickens of
every conceivable combination are
forced to rustic for their living, and
the income from them is no more
than a fifth of what we could real
iZe. Before we shall ever realize the
possibilities of livestock on our
farms, we must learn much in re-
gard to the principles of breeding,
selection, testing, feeding, handling,
housing, and marketing the various
types and breeds of farm animals.
Each year we are throwing away
hundreds of dollars in buying and
handling commercial fertilizers, just
because we do not know the reeds
of our plants and are ignorant of
the composition. purpose, and best
methods of using these chemical
manures. Our farms are sOmetim S
poorly drained, or systems of under
drains must often be torn out at
great exrense because of mistakes
made in laying them out or in cover
ing. Our houses, barns, and out
buildings are many times poorly
). planned for the service they are to
: render. Mistakes are made in buying
and using engines, machinery
! Implements, and tools. Much may
g be shown us in all of these lines OF
: farm practice.

institution in our own county to take ,
hold of the life and conditions as :
they actually exist with us, and to
grapple with the practical every I
day tasks and problems of the farm
er and, if possible, find practical and
profitable ways of doing everything.
Will such school as is proposed
do this? We believe it will. It has
done so for other sections and we
see no reason why it should not do
so for us. About ten years ago a
county in Wisconsin established a
Farm-life School which proved to be
a success, and the farmers of the
county were gradually drawn under
it's influence, and by following the
progressive ideas taught and demon
strated by the school in all lines of
agricultural work they have become
loyal supporters of the institution.
Farmers were uplifted and made to
feel the Transforming power of the
school in their homes and on their
farms, and as a result there are over
twenty-five such schools in Wiscon-
sin to-day. These schools have been
worth millions of dollars to the state.
There mas not only been an increase
in production of farm crops, but
also in the quality of the crops pro-
duced. They are rapidly pushing
Wisconsin to the front as an agri-
cultural state; and yet she is be-
hind North Carolina in natural agrl-
cultural resources.

The Benefits of a Farm
Lie SCh0Olt to Farmers

at Webster, or not. This !;
is a school for the benefit of the :
farmer and those of his children who +
seek to prepare themselves for life
and work on the farm. Fully nine :
tenths of our citizens are farmers, (
and it is for them to say whether
they will establish an institution in
our midst which will be in intimate
touch with the agricultural condit-
ions all over our county and be
center from which agricultural
knowledge and methods of farm
practice may be effectually dissem-~
inated or whether they will, with
out the school continue the same
old and Intellectual practice of an
occupation which to many means
life of drudgery and meager susten-
ance. Every citizen should seek to
understand what the establishment
of such school will mean and then
decide for himself whether we need
such a school, or not.
Now, in studying this proposition,
we have viewed it from every side
and must say that from every view
point we are heartily in favor of
taking every step necessary to es-
tablish and maintain such a school
in our county. While there are many
reasons why we wish to see Farm
life School established in Jackson
, County, we shall try to present but
> one of these, and that one is possibly
!, one of the very strongest. We favor
! it largely because of the direct bene-
fit it will be to the farmer himself.
A great many of our farmers are
! ready to ask the question, How is
a Farm-life School located at Web
! ster to be direct benefit to me?'
. Let us see.

# act providing for the establishment
; and maintenance of County Farm

= that this faculty is also required t
