RARE KINDS OF FLORA AND FAUNA.

The nature-lovers will find Henderson
ville's surrounding country veritable para
disc. There is great variety of trees, birds
and flowers here, many of them considered
rare. and of extreme beauty A number OF.
the most famous naturalists in America have
odone's this section, and all report 1t as o
wonderful country for those interested In
fora and fauna. 1t is near Hendersony!lle
that the famous "sortia'' (sortia galacifolia)
was rediscovered, after search throughout
the mountains Of this country, extending
ever nearly half century.

Local Conditions Ideal for
Good Farming and Trucking

The conditions which serve to perfect con
ditions for the fruit grower and horticuIturist
contribute to the successful carrying on Of
other strictly agricultural pursuits in Hen
derson county. Greater interest In grain
crops and trucking is being manifested by
the farmers, and more scientific measures are
being applied each year. Noted improve
ment has been made in the matter of rota-
ton of crops, and in the use Of uplto-date
implements for making and harvesting the
crops. AS a result of all this, the yields are
far more profitable and expenses are re-
duced to a minimum. =
The season here is just too short for pro-
ducing cotton, but is of the right length for
the growing of many kinds of grains and
truck farming:
The soil presents an assortment indispensi-
BILE to an agricultural section. There is the

stiff red clay soil, sand-clay soil and a
rich soil known as Toxaway loan. in one
or another of these soils variety of grains
grow successfully, and the average, yield is
high 1t is estimated that about fifty car
loads of commercial fertilizer is used within
the county for farming purposes each year.
Labor is to be had at about the same cost as
In other sections. The average cost OF farm
ING lands hereabouts is hard to estimate, but
it may be said that the price is no higher
than for lands of the same class in other
communities It must be realized that the
price is mounting up each year, and good
lands are becoming more costly as time ad-
vances. Much of the best of it can not be
bought except at high figures.
A Splendid Corn Country.
1t is hard to overestimate the possibilities
of this section as a corn producing country.
Some large yields have been made, and the
Western Carolina Democrat and French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1913-1915, 1915-05-27

average yield. per acresis rising higher and
higher each year Special efforts have been
made by interested parties to increase the
amount of corn planted in. the county, and
to improve the qualit as well. ToA this end
fairs and shows are being held In various
parts of Western North Carolina, and SPLEEN
did exhibits are being made at the State fair
each year.
In December of last year the second an
nual Henderson county corn and potato
show was held in Hendersonville, and much
good was accomplished by it.. There We're
about fifty exhibits made from the county,
which is considered good, owing to the bad
weather conditions that existed at the time
of the holding of the fair.
Albert Cannon of Horse Shoe, who is 2
member of the State Board of Agriculture
had some remarkably fine corn specimens on
exhibit in Raleigh last fall at a meeting OF
the board. The ears were described as
"some of the best corn ever seen In these
parts.
1t is estimated that a least 100000 bushels
Of corn were made within the county last
year, some of the yields per. acre running
very high.
In addition to corn other grain crops that
do well here include rye and wheat. Con-
siderable quantities of both are planted an
nually.

THE c1TY,s NEW posroFr1cE.

Hendersonville' visitors will have nothing

An effort is being made to encourage the
larger planting of Irish potatoes In Hender-
son county. Conditions here are described
as ideal.''
All sorts of clovers can be grown with lit
tie effort, and by the use of a little lime this
crop can be made to pay good returns.
Sweet potatoes are cultivated here for
table use, but are not gone in for on com
mercial basis.
A Few Leading Farmers.
Some of the farmers who have made good
on large scale are here mentioned A. Can
non, T. B. Allen, John Hooper, R. M. Hooper,
Tom Osborne and Chas. Corpening, of Horse
Shoe; w. III. SUNNY, of Fletcher; r. L. Rush
er and John L. Orr, of Hendersonville;
Frank B. Hayne of Pleasant Hill; Major
Theodore G. Barker, of Flat Rock.

number of fires is relatively small and the,
losses small.
The citys small loss by fire is due first to
her eccellent water supply. The water is
hrou 1T to the nozzle direct from the top of
Echo mountain by the gravity system, and
exerts high pressure at the hydrant, doing
away with the necessity for much costly ap-
paratus. The supply is in no danger of fail
ing, and the citizens feel safe against fire
damages at all times.
The equipment Of the fire department
consists of horse drawn hose wagon, two
hand reels, and three thousand feet of new
hose. The members serve voluntarily, but
move is on foot to compensate them in part
for their work. The officers are J. w. Nc
Carson chief; w A. Garren, assistant; four
linesmen and four nozzlemen.
A fire bell has recently been purchased by
the city and gives prompt and efficient notice
Of fires.

AN EFFICIENT FIRE DEPARTMENT.

Hendersonyille has reason to be proud of
her fire department. Well-informed per
sons state that the fire loss here is extremely
low, and serious fires are almost unknown
in the history of the place. The fire insur-
ance rates are computed on the same basis
as such larger centres as Asheville and
Charlotte, which fact speaks for itself. The

WnaG ABOUT trucking EdCA4CAOS'
No mention of agricultural conditions
hereabouts would be complete and represen-
tative should horticultural conditions be
overlooked. The North Carolina State Sur
veyor of Soils is on record as saying that
the soil of Henderson county is unusually
well adapted to the successful raising OF
truck. Many of our most progressive agri-
culturists have gone in for truck raising al
most exclusively, and as result Henderson
county is noted cabbage country, taking =
high rank throughout the South.
Great quantities of tomatoes are raised

FARMERS WANT TO
TRADE N BEMIOJl;
GET MOST FOR MONEY
B.. A. Ronning
B.. A. Ronning

B. A. Ronning and L F.. Norquist,
farmers in the Moose Lake country,
were business callers in Bemidji Tues
day and report that considerable in
terest is being taken by the settlers
in that section in the new road to be
built, connecting with the main high
way into Bemidji. -....
No Funds Available.
This road has already been or
dered, upon the presentation of a
petition of seventy signers to the
county board of commissioners, but
at present there are no funds avail
able to begin work. The farmers
living in this district in order to get
to Bemidji are compelled to 20 by
way of Blackduck.
Road is Necessary.
1.-The farmers want to trade in Be-
midi, because they believe they can
DO better here than elsewhere" said
Mr.. Ronning in speaking of the new
road. II find that I can save more
than my railroad fare in dealing with
Bemidji merchants, and other farmers
in our community would drive here
for that same reason if the road was
put through. We all want to come
here and believe that if Bemidji busi-
ness men knew how badly we needed
that road they would help us get it
as soon as POSSIBLE"
Bemidji is Trading Point.
At the Merchants meeting Tues
day afternoon it was unanimously
voted to extend every. effort in assist
ing the farmers in urging the compile
tion of that road. A survey will be
urged at once so that the farmers
who use that road most, if they de-
sire, can cut road through prepara-
tory to grading. If the road is cut
out they will be able to drive over
it this winter. There are several
hundred families in that section who
will be benefited and who will make
Bemidji their trading point as soon
as the work is completed.
