HOMA COUNTY
HAS STARTED IN TIE
WESTERN PORTION OF THE
COUNTY TO HAVE A NEW CoUk-
TY-CARTER AND OTHERS

There has been an agitation start
ed at Wilson and IN other portions OF
Carter county, and likewise in some
portions of jefferson and Stephens
and Love counties, to cut off enough
territory from each of the counties
named and form new county in the
state, with Ringing as the county
seat. Just what this movement will
amount to is not known at the present
time, but the argument is advanced
that with McCrory as speaker of the
house he might WELD the big stick
with sufficient force to bring the
change about and add another county
to the list already claimed by the
state
County commissioner Taliaferro to
day stated that he had heard this
talk principally at Wilson and, while
he was not disposed 10 take the mat
ter seriously, still it might amount 10
something more than talk unless the
people of this county were awakened
to the fact that such thing might
be accomplished. The particular sec
tion of Carter county referred to has
been amply supplied with steel bridges
and other improvements paid for by
the bonds of Carter county, and the
commissioner stated that it was not
the purpose of Carter county to re
pudiate debt of any character
brought about by such changes as sug-
gested.
There has always been feeling OF
good will between the citizens of this
city and section of the county, toward
the western portion, and these seems
to be no valid reason why a change
should be made, unless as one man
expressed, that there were those in
terested who hoped to profit by hold
ing office in a new county should ono
be created. Those who are interested
in the scheme have gone so far as to
suggest three names to be submitted
for the county, viz: Wilson, after the
town of Wilson, Williams, after the
present governor. and Ringing after
the town OF Ringing

BENEVOLENT SOCIETY WANTS
TO HAVE OFFICERS REPORT
TO THEM BEFORE TAKING UP
COLLECTIONS.

Mrs. Curtis, county PROBATION Of
iicer and head of the local benevo-
lent society, requested this morning
that notice be served on all police
and deputy sherlfs in this city and
that they report 10 her any cases OF
want that are brought Ia their no
tice, and let the mstter be taken up
by the society.
This is done to protect not only
the officers, but the public as well,
as there are some persons going over
The city at the present time soliciting
aid who are unworthy, and " HON the
society has helped in the past, TO
no avail.
A case OF this kind was reported
yesterday to the society, and upon in
lestigation they found that they were
not only feeding a worthy one in dis
tress, but several sons and daughters
and their families as well, who are
able to work, and should have been
at some employment.
The practice of large families
moving from the country to the city
during the winter months, and then
depending upon the charity of the
society to sustain them is also getting
monotonous. Yesterday a family, con-
sist!ng of ten persons and two horses,
arrived in the city and asked assist
ance until they could find employ
ment They were not so modest in
their demands either las they desired
chops and hay for their stock, in
addition to the bill of stuff for their
own use. Mrs. Curtis informed them
that the society would not feed their
stock, and that the first was goine
to be the last bill of goods they might
expect from the society, so it is up
to them to get busy and find work OF
some kind.
The society is taking care of a
number of worthy cases in this city
this winter. and they are in position
to know the circumstances Of every
call they have. For that reason, they
desire the police to Immediately no
tify them when they are appealed
to for help.

Corn is king of all the crops More than 20 per cent of all the improved farm land in the United States is an- nually devoted to the growing of corn. In 1914 105 million acres were planted to corn in this country. producing 2,700 million bushels, which brought the growers 1900 million dollars. For nearly fifty years the land planted to corn has been equal if not greater than the acre. age of all other cereal crops combined.
 Corn from standpoint of acreage yield and value exceeds every other crop.
 Wherever corn is grown, there you find high priced land and prosperous people.
 No other crop can replace corn but corn can readily take the place of any other grain crop.
 Corn is put to a greater number of uses than any other crop that grows
 There are greater possibilities for improvement. yield and quality of corn than any other crop.-F'rom a lecture by P. c. Holden.
