are confined TO the news of the.
county and to such other matter
as, incur judgment, best serves
the interest of Smith county peo-
pie. 1t is. our purpose to give
each section of the county pub
licity, touching it's advantages,
etc, and we feel that an article
about Dixon Springs will be read
with interest by the people of
Smith County and all other sec
tions where the paper goes.
Dixon Springs has so much to
boasU of that it is difficult in
writing of it not to become effu-
sive, but the object of this arti-
Gle is to better acquaint the pub
lie with the many attractions
which the town and surrounding
territory offer, something of its
enterprises, ETC., and if there
seems to be an exuberance of
good things related, it is because
plain statement of facts makes
it so. A brief description of the
place follows. as outlined by
Young, Burton & Young, real
estate agents:
Dixon Springs is situated near
the western border of Smith
county and about one mile from
Trousdale county line. 1t is 40
miles east of Nashville, z miles
east of Huntsville, terminus of
the L. &. N. Railroad, aud IL
miles west of Carthage, a termi-
nus of the Tennessee Central.
1t lies little over a mile north
of the Cumberland River which
Is slack water and supplies regu-
lar transportation and low rates
of freight the year round. Au-
tomobile lines furnish an excel
lent mail and passenger service
east and west daily including
Sundays, so that by auto and
train from HartvilIe or Carthage.
or by auto and interurban from
Gallatin. the run from Dixon
Springs to Nashville is less than
four hours. Rural mail routes
permeate the surrounding coun-
try, and two telephone systems
put every man in instant touch
with his neighbors and the world
at large.
1.-THE town lies in the midst of
a charming valley, in the Cen
trail Blue Grass Basin of the
state, and in section wonder
fully blest. The beauty of its
landscapes, the luxuriance of it's
pastures and the fertility of it's
fields are unsurpassed, and to
these lavish gifts of nature the
thrift and enterprise of it's peo-
pie have added handsome resi-
dences, good markets, good
schools and good churches. For.
hundred years this valley has
been famed for the richness of
its soil, and for the intelligence,
friendliDess, hospitality, and
high character of its citizen
ship. Impressed by these dis
tinguishing characteristics, Ben
ton McMillin aptly named it
The Happy Valley
This Happy Valley with it's
numberless streams of whole
some water, bounteous annual
rainfall, and a climate neither
severely cold nor severly hot
combine to make it an ideal sec
tion for livestock production as
we'll as tillage. Free from the
congestion of the cities, it is in
deed region of moral purity
and physical vigor. Nowhere is
the sunshine brighter. (nor the
shade more grateful, and bet
ter locality in which to live and
thrive has not yet been found on
the surface of the globe. -
Among The Enterprises of the
town are six stores, a bank, a
big tobacco warehouse, wagon
and a buggy mandatory,
