The latest venture for Union City

it his moneys wcrth-and then
some.

ASKING FOR BRANCH PLANT.
The Childs Speciality House May
Enlarge the Business.

President Foust and Secretary
Rocks, of the Humboldt Business
Mems Club, spent Monday in Union
City looking after some busincs, mat
ters and visiting the manufacturing
enterprises OF the town.
They visited the Childs Speciality
House and inspected the largo plant
in operation. A branch plant Of this
rapidly growing concern is what
Ham boldt sent two Of her live-wires
here to procure. The visit here was
pleasant and probably Profitable.
Mrs. Scates and the Messrs- Beck pre-
dict the. necessity of another plant
and assured the Humboldt citizens
the town they represent offers by far
the best field of any town in this en-
tire section for permanent location.
They say the unprecedented and
unexpected dena,.d for Childs Spe-
cialty products just now he's over
taxed tie capacity of the local plant
and they have about completed ar
rangements to take care of the pres
ent emergency by establishing tenn
porary 25-machine sewing Plant at
Martin. This will likely be done
within the next few days.
Orders from tie North and East

employed here are unable to furnish

New Taxing District.

The friends of Troy Special High
School won in the referendum last
Saturday to establish a new taxing
district in Number Six. The vote was
2S3 to 79. This was merely an agree
ment to memorialize the Legislature
for an act establishing said school
district. 1t is remembered that the
former taxing district was abolished.
This included the entire civil dis
trict. The new district includes a
much smaller lea, with the provision
that those outside of the district can
take advantake of the school by pay
ing tuition fee.
1t settles practically question
that has given the people of Troy and
vicinity a great deal of trouble, and
is probably more equitable Il AN the
former arrangement.
The friends of the school are to be
congratulated. The petitions were
both for and against the taxing dis
trict and they were kept by Revs.

Now that the motoring season is back again and the roads and streets are crowded with motor vehicles all should caution themselves again against reckless or careless driving, or anything that resembles it. AL most daily we read of accidents many of which are fatal from colliding au- tomobiles. You may strictly observe the road rules yourself, but you must remember that the other fellow may not do this, or he may innocently make bonehead drive. You can't tell which way the driver in the other car, or even COW is going to turn. We have been fortunate in not having any of the more serious accidents here.

Tff that he can't raise large crops of corn because he has to have something that will bring in money. Maybe home grown corn won't bring money, but we have noticed that these too num- erous car loads of corn arriving here regularly from Oklahoma generally arc paid for in cash. True you can't always dispose of this crop at gather ing time, but it doesn't cost so much to make the crop and the corn grower doesn't need so much money all at one time. We are not advocating a one crop system, but believe that solid crop of corn would pay more returns from Red River farms than a solid crop of cotton any year.

Lookout Mountain Potatoes
For Fall Planting.

The Lookout Mountain Irish
potato is bred for fall planting. ln
this latitude they should be plant
el q little earlier than the Trl-
umph, say, between July 10, and
and August |. The tubers of this
potato should be cut in the same
manner as when planting spring
potatoes. For best results COM
mercial fertilizer should be appli-
ed at the rate Of 500 to LOCO
pounds Of equal parts acid phos-
phate and cotton seed meal per
acre. This fertilizer should be
put down several weeks before
planting, so as to give the cotton
seed meal time to rot.
The ideal time to plant is on a
cloudy day or late in the after
noon. 1t will be much easier on
the planter and much better for
the potatoes. The land, Of course
should be in the best of condition
for best results,
The Horticultural Department
of the Louisiana State University
will be glad to cooperate with
buyers in securing the Lookout
Mountain seed. Arrangements
should be made as soon as possl-
bic to secure this stock as the de-
mand always exceeds the supply.
