REALTY TRANSFERS
SHOW SUBSTANTIAL
MONTHLY INCREASE
$4,000 Is MARK SET BY AUGUST,
1915, AGAINST $56,27o FOR
LAST YEAR.
YEARLY GAIN OF FIFTY PER CENT
$414,010 Is Increase For First Eight
Months of Year-At Present Rate
Transfers Will Break Records for
Year-Value of Land More Evident.

Real estate transfers continue to be
made in Maury county at hitherto
unheard of rate. During August, $73,
400 worth of Maury property changed
hands. Although this in itself is not
a record-breaking figure, 1t brings the
grand total of transfers made in the
county during the first eight months
of the year to the astounding figure OF
$1,372,980, which is almost fifty per
cent increase over $95S,S9O, the total
for the first eight months of 1915. The
actual increase over the corresponding
time of last year Of the first eight
months of 1916 is $414,O1O.
August, 1916, with its figure of $73,
400 is $17,13O greater in the value OF
the transfers than August, 1915, which
amounted to $56,27O. August is usual
ly the"dullest month in the year for
the realty traders. The mark OF last
year was the lowest recorded during
the first eight months. The mark for
August, 1916, is lower than any month
in the first eight months Of this year
with the exception of May, which had
only $67,320 in transfers.
II the present rate of transfer is
kept up for the remainder of the year
the total for 1916 will be $3.50, $40
which will be one of the very highest
totals ever reached in the history OF
the county. The great value Of Maury
realty is becoming more and more evi
dent to all; substantial increases are
expected to follow each other every
year.
The transfers for the first eight
months of 1915 and 1916 follow.

did not vote and the chairman declar-
ed the motion adopted. l. H. McKib-
bon and Hayes Denton, members of
the advisory board from the fifth dis
trict, both recommended the estab-
lishment Of the school.
j. |. Finney, editor Of The Herald,
who Is a citizen of the fifth district,
appeared before the board and urged
that before another school was es-
tablished in Maury county that the
members of the board Of education
make a personal inspection Of the

pleaded with the board not to abandon
its splendid record for the consolida.
ton of public schools in Maury coun-
ty. He urged that no backward step
be taken in this matter, but that the
members be sure before another
school was added to the burdens of
the taxpayers that it was not only
necessary but was in harmony with
the enlightened policy Of present day
education. He said to do otherwise
would be to adopt a reactionary policy
that would rise up to plague the mem
bers Of the board.
Mr.. Russell thought that the board
should go slow in establishing new
schools: that it had been very conser-
vative in the matter OF consolidation
and that 1t should be equally as con-
sentative in the matter of creating
new schools.
The motion was adopted as above
stated.

Probably the best hill OF corn ever
shown In Maury county was brought
here this morning by ]. H. Hardison
of the Fourth district. The corn was
exhibited at The Herald office and was
very greatly admired. 1t consisted Of
one very large stalk with two suckers,
one on each side of the parent stalk.
On the parent stalk and on each of
the two suckers were two well devel-
oped, matured ears of corn, making
six ears in the stalk. It is estimated
that II one had an acre Ike this hill
with a perfect stand he would make
200 bushels of corn to the acre. Mr.
Hardison used Meals Paymaster corn
and said that if he had used this Va.
riety exclusively he would have In

by twenty-five barrels.
