Fulton County Minerals.

The writer not only loves to
write up short, interesting bits of
history about Fulton county, but
as well, the latest mineral devel-
opments that will bring thousand
of dollars to investors in Fulton
county lands. Possibly, but very
few people know that there are
thousands of acres of coal lands
in the County. Som e people
think that Fulton county has
but few minerals-that about all
mineral measures are barren, and
simply because but very little
prospecting, and no developments
have scarcely been made; but the
writer wants to say that this gen
GRAFTON, and future generations,
will see such richness of minerals
never dreamed of, and every
year, new and valuable minerals
will be found until all more full
ly understand why our Creator
made these lofty rugged noun
tains and beautiful, fertile val
leys.
The stigma of no railroad in
Fulton county has been so long
attached to it that many people
nave been led to believe it; vet
those who have been thoughtful
enough to look up railroad maps.
know that the East Broad Top
railroad penetrated the county
several years ago at, or near,
Woodvale, and in that section lies
the coal lands of the County.
South and East Broad Top rail
road, on Broad Top mountain, in
the northern part of Fulton coun-
ty, party of capitalists have
been prospecting for the last five
months with two diamond drills
in constant operation. The writ
er has been reliably informed
that one of or among the thick
est, most superior veins of coal
on Broad Top mountain has been
found there, besides other 5-foot
veins of coal. The prospecting
will be continued to find the eN-
tent of the coal field in the re-
gion, or at least, until the fund
$25, 900 set apart for that purpose
is exhausted. Mines will soon
be opened, the East Broad Top
railroad extended to them. and
the mining of Fulton county coal
began.

Boys Earn College Education.

When we read that young men
go to college and earn their way
by working at anything honor
able we feel like keeping tab on
them for reference. The follow
ing report is from State College.
Students earned $500 in the
village during the college year.
They washed dishes, worked on
farms, cleaned houses, did type
writing and clerical work and at
tended gardens. Catering and
waiting on table netted about
$1,000"
For the benefit of young men
who may not know, we will say;
State College is located in Center
county, Pa, in a village bearing
the same name-State College.
1t was organized a little over fif-
ty years ago under the name of
Farmers School. 1t receives
support from the State, and from
the United States government.
Its original purposes were to
teach better farming methods,
make experiments, and demon
strate up-to-date farm work of
every description. 1t now teach
es not only farming, dairying,
horticulture, animal and poultry
industry, but other industrial vo-
cations are taught. Students
must pay their own board, buy
several books, etc.; but the cost
ly up-keep of the college is met
by public funds. 1t is still, in
the main, a farmers school.
Here, the young men from the
farms meet on a great estate of
hundreds of acres; they receive
instruction along the line select
ed, and they have the opportu-
nifty of putting it into practice on
the spot. They see work done
as it should be. They see and
handle best of stock and poultry
see and help to make good butter
learn the values of fertilizers,
learn how to fight pests, in fact,
they get a look into a big world
of activities never dreamed of by
those who never saw anything
bigger than the old home place.
If they have ambition, they return
home with entirely new views of
life in the country, and, like good
students, they begin the stern
duties of life with vim and
fearlessness that can be gained
in no other way. We know
whereof we speak when we urge
all young farmers to take a trip
to State College, if but for a day
or a week. But if it is possible,
remain for at least one session.
1t will prove one of the greatest
pleasures that we can suggest
take our interest in you for that
statement, and go and see State
College farms. 1t beats any fair
you will ever see.

Eighth Township Heard From.

miles of road near Akersville.
They removed loose stone, and

They will not wait for the Cover
