She cannot be too cautious in

If you could visit this plant,

amazed at the wonderful cleanli-

Improving Hickory Plant

The T. w. Minton G. Son Hick-
DRY Mills here are making sever
eral important improvements to
their plant. They are building
additional warehouses, installing
another $50 horse power boiler,
and three more large machines,
which will greatly increase their
efficiency and output in ali de-
partments. The work of building
and installing the additional ma
chinery is not in any way inter-
fering with the operations OF the
mill in their spoke and dowel de-
partments, which are running
full time. When Improvements
are completed they will employ
40 to so men.
The first car of logs was re-
ceived over the new railroad last
Monday. They were a fine bunch
of the best hickory to be found.

in the new styles of Spring hats
at the millinery store of Misses
Sail e Hoskins and Laura Hays,
and a beautiful array of hats was
on display. Several hundred la
dies of this city as we'll as a num-
Der from Artemus, Warren,

Worth While

In last weeks issue Of Coal
Age, a leading magazine and
trade journal devoted to this in
dustry, of New York, special
prominence is awarded an article
translated from the Sla1lsu IAN
guage into English by Prof. &.
Britain Lyttle, Baroouyil.o
teacher of Spanish, aided by some
of his advanced pupils, with rel
erence to recent reports Of the
department of geology in COlom-
bia, South America regarding cE-
tensive deposits of gold, plati-
mum, coal and other valuable
minerals in that country, probab-
ly the richest in America n
natural resources. In future the
feature of employing his more
advanced pupils in aiding with
work of this character ana shar-
ing the generous remuneration
awarded will have even greater
prominence in Prof. Lyttie'S ed
ucational system than it has been
given heretofore.

From the above, can be seen
that the general average of the
entire school is above 95 percent.
The program given by Miss
Pelly's room, the second and the
third grades, last Thursday even
ing was quite a success. and we
wish to thank the citizens and
patrons for their hearty cooper
alton. The proceeds will be used
for buying some necessary equip
ment for their room. Five large
handsome pictures, a bookcase
and thirty supplementary read
ers have already been ordered.
The Old Paper campaign is
rapidly progressing. Already
about SOC pounds of paper, mag
azines and other old paper have
been collected. The storts, print
ing office and public firms have
responded heartily and we thank
them and ask them to continue
saving paper for us. Now, will
not everybody who has old pa

their way at home, phone and

only too gladly remove it? How
many pounds can we collect this

farms by erecting new buildings
and fences, buying more and
better stock, building siIos, pur-
chasing fertilizer; etc.
The officers elected were, J. A.

INCREASED ACTIVITY
NOTED IN THE EREC-
TON OF BUILDINGS.

With the coming Of Spring and
good weather. there will be in
creased activity in all lines of
business in Barbourville especial
ly in the erection of buildings.
The large lot adjoining the
Pos. Office has been divided into
four nice lots and on them will
be erected four business houses
by II. W. Bowman, Hinkle g.
Walker. A. w. Hopper, and DR..
J. S. Lock. Brick and other
building material are being placed
on the lots now and within few
weeks will be seen the compile
tion of these buildings which will
complete the block from the Pub
lie Square to Walnut street.
These buildings. of uniform
height, will add greatly to the
appearance of that part Of the
city. The lot fronting these lots
and across the twelve-fOot walk,
which extends from the Public
Square to Walnut street, is the
property of l.. NJ. Cole and W. H.
Detherage on which these gen.
tlemen are contemplating the
erection of a three-story brick
building. John M. Tinsley will
erect a three-story brick on the
corner of Public Square and Riv-
er street, to take the place Of the
wooden structure recently de-
;troyed by fire.
S. B. Dishman is having the
rubbish removed from the lot
IN the corner of Walnut and
High street, where fire recently
destroyed the Dishman Flats,
preparatory TO erecting q three
story apartment building. c. b.

pletion and Mr.. Miller is prepar-
ng to move his stock Of goods
in and purchase n ore goods to
ill this large building.
A number of residences will
also be built this Spring and
Summer. An empty house is
h nd to find in BarboU vile, and
With the development Of the oil
fields in this county, the increase
in population will Justify the
erection Of a business house or
