NOT BUFORD HAYDOCK
Possesses

BY one of those ai5h!v regrettahle
mistakes quite impossible TO explain,
the name of Buford kaydCek was
substituted for the naG1e of Dixon
LYDIA in a news item in last weeks
Hustler. The item said that Buford
Haydock was the taIlest man and that
his wife was one of the shortest wo-
men in Henderson county and that
they were interasi I'd spectators at
the Owens trial.
Everything was perfectly correct
except that it was Dixon LYDIA and
not Buford Haydoek who WAS at the
trial. Mr.. Haydock was not there
neither was. his wife. H was. as al
ways, too busy with his duties at Bat
Cave, where he is the competent over
seer of large tract of land owned by
the Sisters Of Charity Mr.. Haydock
lives at Bat Cave and not at Edney-
Vile and both he and Mrs. Haydock
are reckoned mong the most estima-
BILE people in Henderson county.

CITY HAS GREAT
FUTURE, SAYS
The CITIZEN

Under the caption ''HendeEsonEiIle
Does Things" The Asheville Citizen
said, editOrially, On July 25:
"HendersonyilIe people know that
the way to prosperity and Community
accomplishment is by york and
doing things. The French Broad
Hustler in a booster building edition.
tells the story OF a haIf-million do
lars to be spent by our hustling
neighbors on business establishments
and residences. The building pro-
gram includes a new hotel to COST
100000; residences valued at $50, 900;
the Home Ice and Oil company, $780,
900 for developments which will in
clude a storage plant; new Garage
for the Hendersonville Automobile
company; $4,000; the Citizens Ma
tional bank an dthe First Bank and
Trust company will erect new Office
buildings at a cost of 100000 each;
there will be new apartment build
ing and a new Office structure as we'll
as additions to hotels and other busi-
ness houses.
While other communities are wait
ing for cheap lumber and other build
ing supplies Henderse1yille is doing
it now" #6f
The ice and oil company is new
concern whose principal stockholders
are: J. o. Bell, president of the
Green River Manufacturing company,
Brownlow Jackson, John T. Wilkins
and E. ]. Rhodes.
1t is not exaggerated praise to say
that the community spirit of enter
prise and determination to do things
assures Hendersonrille OF a great tu-
ture."
French Broad hustler., 1919-07-31
j. O. BELL INVESTS HERE

J. o. Bell, president of the Green
River Manufacturing company, is be-
coming more and more identified
with the growth of Hendersonville.
Mr. Bell has comparatively re-
Gently bought many parcels of land
here. At the auction sale of the w.
A. Smith land last week, he purchas-
ed none of the Main street frontage
but all of the remainder, including
that fine residence of E. G.. Stillwell.
Mr.. Bell is one of the principal
stockholders in the new company
about to erect a cold Storage plant
here, is a heavy stockholder in the
Hendersonville Automobile company,
recent buyers of the Sample property,
and with Brownlow Jackson is owner
of the lot on Fourth avenue opposite
the postoffice upon which is to be
erected the citys first apartment
house.
1t is quite needless to say that this
successful man of affairs is firm be-
lever in the future of Hendersonville.

THREE SALES Of
LAND HERE THE
COMING WEEK

There will be three different land
auction sales in Hendersonville next
week, all conducted by Penny Bros,
the men responsible for the very
successful sale of the w. A Smith
property last week. The land to be
offered is highly desirable in every
way, and at the present low values
for real estate here offers certain
and safe investment.
The famous Toms hill will be sold
on August 5, at 1880 in the morn
ing.
S. Maxwell will sell his superb
property on Fifth avenue-certainly
a street where no chances are taken
by investors, and where thousands of
dollars is now being spent for new
homes. This will be on August 7,
at 3 80 in the afternoon.
j. 81. Ripley will sell fifty lots on
Third and Fourth avenues. This sale
of desirable city lots will be held on
August z, at 1880 in the morning.

Henderson County Superior court un-
til that day comes when a new and
much larger county court house will
be required, which will be some little
time. AS to its politics NJ. L.
Shipman, has always been editor OF
The Hustler. In the face of diff
culties of which the outside world has
had no conception, The Hustler has
always kept the faith.
The devil says, and so many unwise
suggestions dome from the devil, that
before the old Hustler dies he would
like to see iften the plain, unvarnish-
ed truth about some things. He says
he would lise to see wedding written
up as it should be-with the BRIDE
groom PLAYED up in the headlines and
the bride dismissed with an talso
present" But the devil is of an inn
petuous disposition with a love for
flowers, az all who enter the Hustler
Office maS see. For those struggling
plants in AN interesting variety of tin
cans aret the devils and even has he
planted lowers alongside the building
and facing an alley! But devil is
devil, always. There was a devil in
the old Hustler Office, on Main street
in the building owned by Mrs. For
rest. The power there was gasoline
engine 6of uncertain temperament at
best and the devil experimental with
the engine and there was no paper for
several days. s.
But this is about all the Merg will
be able to stand. This, therefore, is
the last issue Of The Hustler with
which NJ T.. Shipman and T. r.. Bar
rows will be connected g They were
conaected with it years ago, went
apart. and came together for a few
weeks pending this final change. Mr..
Shipman is the Commissioners of La
Dor and Printing Mr.. Barrows will
be connected with the paper In dim
sort OF way for awhile, when, some
time in the fail, probably. he will as
su1ae his duties 40 publicity man for

ASHEVILLE ROAD OPEN

The Hendersonville-Ash high
way is finally open clear through
and it is the devout prayer of an
motorists that it may remain open.
Among those who are thankful that
the road is finished are the drivers of
the Interurban busses-who have
had their troubles and plenty of them
in steering their big cars around the
detours. 1t is an indica-
ton of their skill, and of the care
exercised by the management in the
selection of their employees, that the
trips have been made on schedule
time and with never suggestion Of
any accident.
With the concrete finished there is
no more pleasant ride in the noun
tainsF: than between the. two cities.
About the finest view of the noun
tains may rbe had ON this trip, now
made so very conveniently and so
very safely that it is an out and out
pleasure. For this calls for NO trip
to the railway station, and then
another trip from the station at the
other end Of the ride. Passengers are
taken aboard and discharged in the
heart of the city, convenient to the
shops and ali business places. The
extreme popularity Of the Intsrurban
is indicated by the constantly increas-
ing business it is doing. 1t 10 q ten-

FARMERS ARE
PROSPEROUS,
He SAYS

There's money in farming these
days of high prices" said K. G. Nor
ris, of Smith, jackson and Morris,
'.and it's going to continue that way
for many years. It's the farmers
opportunity"
The firm of which Mr. Morris is a
member has an advertisement in this
issue of The Hustler that must be of
particular interest to all those con>
templating going back to the land,
or to those interested in financing
their propositions along safe and
most remarkable liberal lines.
Henderson county is fast coming
into its own so far as the farming
industry is concerned. The farmers
here were never more prosperous
than they are today, and they were
never more progressive. Tractors are
by no means rare things on Hender-
son farms, and of all other imple-
ments there are far more now than
there were but few years ago.
The firm of Smith, Jackson and
Morris needs no introduction to the
people of Henderson county. Their
advertisement would seem to be Of
peculiar interest to many at this
time.

GREATEST
YEAR BRINGS
THOUSANDS

There's spirit of joy in the air
The crowd IS summer crowd, we'll
dressed and out for good time. The
girls are pretty seem as care-free as
the wind, and they are, oh, so daintfly
SOwned, while the men make the best
show they know how, POOR things
But it's the womens dresses that add
the picturesque touch to that SLOW
moving throng on Main street-wouId
that it had some other name!
The magnifcently wide thorough
fare is, as always, blocked with num-
berleSs motor cars, any number of
them representing a comfortable for
tune. One of them bears a neatly
printed legend for the Girl
in Pink" Why this distinction is not
known, for the casual observer, even
though long married, feels like hur-
rahing for the girl in pink and yellow
and blue and all the other cOlors, too
Here and there one sees dreadful
looking spiders-feathery things that
would wobble and shlmm1e most
shamefully. A closer examination
reveals they are suspended from
trees bordering the walk, with one
end of the thread held in the hands or
some giggling youngster, who gigg-
les louder when the imitation spider
is dropped close to your face and
then jerked suddenly away. Beyond
some boys have attached a cord to
fat pocketbook. A woman stoops, the
pocket book is gone. and she, walks
on, somewhat pink of face. Medicine
men with wonderful cure-alls and
live rattlesnakes, benches filled with
we'll dressed iders, Oeggars of aims,
music drifting from the theatres, help
complete the picture.
The crowd is always moving, it is
never still. Just how many thou
sands of visitors are here now no one
seems to know-more is the pity.
Some say 5,0OO-others place the f.
cure at double that. The stores are
dlled, the streets are jammed-it is al
ready the greatest season Hender-
sonville has ever known, and the
flood has by no means reached its
heighth. And it is a different crowd
from that of previous wears Certain
ly there is more money being spent
here than during any previous season
and there is a different spirit in the
air. Perhaps it is because the war is
over, and that long dread is now a
thing of the past. Perhaps it is be-
cause most everybody is prosperous
for prosperity nearly always, but
not always, brings happiness, too.
But whatever the reason, the visitors
now here are the best dressed, the
girls are the prettiest, and the men
the most liberal, of any crowd here
since Hendersonville has been re-
sort.

MILK HIGHER

After August 1st milk in Asheville

The producers will get from forty

is no immediate prospect OF any
lower prices. Should the govern.

which would mean higher freight
rates, the chances are the price OF
