4 BIG FARMER

One Of the more prominent farmers
and stock raisers of Paradise township
and Crawford county, is Thomas MI
chaelsen, who lives and owns land
In sections %, Is, 81, 26, ~, Is and Z,
Paradise. Mr.. Michaelsen owns 1890
acres of Crawford county land and al
20 owns 24O acres in Oklahoma. OF
this large acreage 914 acres comprise
the old Geo. v. Jordan farm, so we'll
known as one of the best farms of
Paradise township. When we visited
M. Michaelsen on Thursday last we
f14nd him driving a fine bunch 81
ydhng cattle from one pasture to an
other. We also found five Of his boys
inH the corn field behind cultiyators,
anil they were making the weeds and
mSrning glories look sick, when Up
rooted and turned to the sun Thomas
l1dd been out in the hot sunshine just
loag enough to wish someone might
come along withswhom he might visit
Mhile, and when we stopped the
faithful Phord, he went around on the
ehady side, and on invitation told US
something Of his farming operations.
Il For many years Mr.. Michaelsen liv-
ed in section 1, Hanover township,
where he operated a 240 acre farm
with considerable success, but he had
q splendid family of boys who were
getting large enough to assist in the
farm work, and he needed more land.
He finally disposed of the Hanover
township land, and purchased the Geo.
V.f3Jordan farm in Paradise, and has
since added to his land holdings, I'M
til he now owns 1890 acres OF highly
imprOved land. The main farm has
one of the best sets of Improvements
imaginable, and the house is a very
commodious one, the main part being
3tx36, with a wing 18x4O. The main
pant of the house has 20 foot posts,
and Is virtually three stories, and
there are 20 rooms, aside from clos.ts
instthe entire house. 1t is modern
nino, oiled, and polished to queens
taste Hard and soft water, as well
asshot and cold water supplied all over
the building, and modern bathroom
ii sone of the recent equipments. An
eiuetric light plant furnishes light and |
power throughout the home, and Mrs.
Michaelsen is supplied with an cleo
tfic washer, iron, and other electrical
appliances. A hot air furnace is used |
to heat the house, and the windows
and porches are well screened. The |
home is one best adapted for a large
family and the tMichaelsens are per-
fectly satisfied with their surround
iiags. 6t Ak
IA barn 56x190, with 20 foot posts
and cement basement, houses 16 head
u horses, 10, head of cows, and all
the vehicles on the place, aside from |
the grain and hay. The grain is ele-
vated to the third floor with power
elevator. Another modern building !

when he sees good chance for in.
vestment he doesn't hesitate, but goes
right in, and takes his chance with
the rest. And his investments have
always proven good ones, and he has
made money, both on and off the farm.
For more than thirty.five years, Mrs.
J. V. Garrett has been a resident OF
Paradise township. She is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Zeph F>ienhold,
and now occupies ITO acres of nice
land in section IS. Her mother has
been residing with her since the death
of Mr.. Fienholdt and the death of her
husband, Mr.. Garrett. When we called
at her place, the two ladies were TAX
ing a short rest from their household
duties and had evidently been enjoy
ing themselves, because they were in
the best of humor. They have &C
quaintance all over the township, and
are noted for their hospitality. Mrs.
Garrett has three sons, and Fred, the
oldest one, was over at his uncle's,
Oscar Fienhold, assisting with the
work. Oscar has not been in the
best of health for some time. Fred
and a younger brother were doing the
farm work for their mother, and this
year they have in 35 acres of corn,
35 acres of fall and spring wheat, and
80 acres of oats. They also put in
some Sudan grass, but the high wa
ter flooded it, and it has not done
well. The boys are running IS head
of. mixed cattle. have IS head Of
shoats and Is head of brood sows Of
the Duroc breed. Five head of hogs
were sold a week or so ago for $40
per hundred, the five head averaging
275 pounds. They milk 10 cows, and
Mrs. Garrett said the cream checks
to between SIS and $50 a
month. Mrs. Garrett keeps an auto,
and whenever occasion demands, she
drives, and enjoys the excitement. 4

far as dollars are concerned. He has
always kept the best stock he could
get, and this season will prove no ex-
ception. Claude is renting his fathers

but If he can find a suitable small

and they are making money for the
Doctor and for themselves. These two
brothers went on this half section with
very little in the way OF worldly pos
sessions, but they were possessed with
an abundance of ambition and deter
mination to make the farm pay out
and they have succeeded even beyond
their expectations. But say, gentle
reader, these boys are workers, and
are not easily discouraged, and they
dig i'm from early morning until late
in the evening. They have only been
in America five years, coming here
from Denmark, but they mastered our
ways and customs, and are now. full
blooded American boys, in spirit and
manners. This year they have in 80
acres of corn, and a large acreage of
wheat and oats. They are stockmen
as well as agriculturists, and have a
number of head of fine cattle and some
sixty head of hogs. They recently
sold 80 head Of hogs for which they
received $19 per hundred, and they
averaged 1870 pounds. The Hansen
boys are fortunate in being able to
keep some very competent help on the
place in the persons of Mr. and Mrs.
A. C.. Conrad, and Mrs. Conrad is a
very intelligent woman, we soon found

PUT BEST MEN ON GUARD

1t is quite evircat that the RovliUa.
t:oa Act Of the General Assembly u:
1919 means d great deal tC the future
progress and prosperity Of NORTH
Carolina and only men Of acknowledge
ed ability should be entrusted with
the machinery for putting the plans
into effect in the various counties OF
the State. The State Tax Commission
makes plain it's intention to select
men for county supervisors who will
discharge the duties of the positions
conscientiously without fear or favor.
The Commission is not concerned
particularly about the political pro-
clivities of the men they are to en-
trust with the direction of this SER
vice, but is is especially desired to
er;ploy those who will not fail to &C
cOmplish the purpose for which the
Act was written.
The tax dodger has never been a
desirable citizen in Nor<a Car1iIIa.
.Ee will be less respected in the future
and those who fail to list T. air prop~
city in accordance with the provisions
OF the new a law are going IT, be
IIGnted down AMI brought tC books
whatever the cost, Il is the jnten-
ton of the State authorities to put
every piece of property on the tax
books at it's actual value and those
who are not in sympathy with this
policy have no business on the COM
mission of any county. And they will
not be unless deception is used in ap-
piications fer appointments to the
State Commission, which has express
~ declared that only men of intellf-
gence, integrity and firmness Of
character will be selected to admins
ter the law. The Commission wants
real men for this work.
Ample time and adequate assistance
will be allowed the supervisor OF each
county and all are expected to ap-
proach the performance of their dut-
les with a correct conception Of what
the Law signifies in the matter of tax
alton. The county supervisors and
county commissioners are expected
to place only the best men on guard.

THE TAX ASSESSORS

The county commissioners have
named A. F. P. King, democrat, and
w. T. Clark, republican, as AK as
SCISSORS for this county under the pro-
visions Of the new re-valuation act.
The announcement came as a sur
prise to w. F. Edwards and A. B.
Freeman and their friends. These
gentlemen were strongly endorsed, but
this did not impress the commission
ers ycly ~serioTs:v. Mr.. King made no
fight fcr the position and Mr.. Clark
merely lied his application and let i.
go ut that.

are confirmed by the State Commits

The Rhodes Auto Company has
captured Mr.. Chas. N. Wrenshall, for
the past three months managing edi-
tor of The Hustler. The paper re-
grets to lose the valuable experience
and efficient service of Mr.. Wrenshall,
but in the race of life the longest pole
brings down the persimmom and the
Rhodes corporation landed a nice ripe
one in this instance. The loss to this
paper will be the gain of the new as

best wishes. follow him in his efforts
tc make life easier for those who
may be in a position to afford the
luxury he is now able to offer. He

MAKE A GOOD JOB OF IT.

There we're scores of applicants for
membership on the State Highway
Commission created by the Road Law
enacted at the session of the General
Assembly for 1919, and Governor
Beckett spent a lot of time in the eff
fort to ascertain which of the gentle
men mentioned il TIA: connection
measured up to his conception of
ab.:iy and f,Aess necessary to the
accomplish ncnt Of the tremendous
task contemplated.
The Governor finally named Messrs
Frank Page, OF Moore county, for the
~six-year term; John E. Cameron, OF
iLenoir, for four years; James K.
!Norfeet, of Forsyth, and James G..
S~tikeleather, OF Buncombe, for two
years each. Mr. Page was desig-
mated as chairman and, along with
the ,ther=. ~ar"cpteH tFe position ten
/ dered to Kim. Eiv. Cameron, who is
the Republican member, is said to
represent the eastern section of the
State, Mr.. Page the Piedmon section,
Mr.. ~Stikeleather the western section
and Mr.. Nordeet the State at large.
The Governor had a long list of
names from which to make q selec-
ton and it contained the names Of
many men, other than those desig-
mated as commissioners, who would
have Distinguished themselves in road
construction had the opportunity
been presented. However, there is a
pretty general feeling that the COM
mission fually constituted is compos-
ed of four gentlemen who realize
that the position is no sinecure, but
enc of great responsibility and posi-
bilitics that &-c ell nigh immeasur-

.YHF LONG WATCH

America was at wal exactly l4,016
hours, which time reduced to minutes
equals $40. $50. What does it mean to
have been at war $4,000 minutes ?
Well, for Gle thing it means that for
every one Of these minutes a watch
was kept by men on the sea.
When the United States declared
war the strength of the navy was ST.
900 men and officers. At the signing
Of the errn;a;;ce it was SOC, 1000.
The navy Ga not Rave many pecta-
cular engagements, the Sinking Ger
man war ships kept too we'll under
cover for that, but the kaiser's mys-
terious, gray weasels Of the sea were
at their deadly work night and day
every one of these 84O,95O minutes.
Cur men,, thousands and hundreds of
thousands OF tnem, had to be taken
a S the Ccean, through, mine
fialds and dcadlier submarines.
Well, We know that the navy put
'cIi acrOss"--TithOut the loss of a
single transport. More than two mil
lion men landed safely in Europe; it
WAS a ~stupendous success.
On bitter winter nights-and that
season of 1917-1918 was one of the
coolest il CIR hi3t0ry-those faithful
guardians Of the sea kept their vigils.
Standing watch through the black
hours. eyes strained to catch sight OF
hostile pcriscopes, each second was
measured by a heart beat-5O,4 57, 800
OF them in all.
IT vas a long watch, but it was
faithfully kept to the end. Will you,
too, keep the faith? The navy's work
is lot finished though the long vigil is
over. Transports are still busy
bringing the men home, but transports
cost money to run. Help furnish the
money so that these faithful boys nay
finish their job. Subscribe to the Vic
