"Blacksburg is making as much If
not more progress than any of the
towns in this section just now" re-
marked Reece NJ. Roark Of Blacksburg'
who was in Yorkville the other day.
"The town is building stores and resi-
dences and other buildings right along
and it looks like we are going TO have
a real town some Of these days. We
are also putting in n sewerage and wa
ter system" said Mr.. Roark. 1.-The wa
ter supply is to be Obtained from sew
eral big springs. There are fourteen
of them in all, / believe"
Depends On Next Two Months.
"As to how much damage the boil
weevil is going to do in York county
this year l think depends largely on
the weather in June and July" said
County Farm Demonstration Agent
John r. Blair the other day. IF there
is lot of rain during these two months
the weevil will likely increase into mil
ions and may take q trI of 60 per cent.
of the crop. If it is l city dry l don't
believe he will damag the crop more
than is per cent. 1 have information
that he is showing up even now in
practically every section Of the coun-
ty."
Farmers Blue In Georgia.
Farmers throughout Georgia, are
rather blue just now because of the
agricultural outlook, especially in re-
gard to cotton" said i. Bamford Car
rison of York No. 8, the other day. He
has i, just returned to his hong after
spending some time in Georgia. Al
though the boil weevil took the biggest
part of their crop in many sections OF
the state last year." said Mr.. Garrison,
they are going to plant cotton again.
In some sections they are going in FOR
sweet potatoes on q large scale; but
how they are going to market them all
is more than / am able to tell. IL
doesn't look good for the farmers in
Georgia"
Why Not Raise Dogs?
I've often wondered why more peo-
pie in this section don't pay more at
tcntion to the raising Of fine breeds of
dogs" said the other day, Mr.. Karl G.
Faris, of the Garrison-Faris Seed
company of Rock Hin, who was talk
ing it over with Views and Interviews.
Some time ago a collie that we had
gave birth to eleven pups. e adVer-
tised those pups for sale one, time ana
sold them like hot cakes at $40 each,
or s11O for the eleven. They were not
q bit of trouble and didn't cost thing
except a little feed There are no
eleven pigs in York county that would
be sold for such sum so easily. And
you would be surprised at the demand
for dogs" Mr.. Faris went on to say.
People want bird dogs, collie's, bulls
and other kinds for pets. Everybody
that is almost everybody loves dog
and if Il number of people would go
into the dog breeding business they
would find that there is good money
in it,
Vigor, Vitality, Vim. and Punch.
That's pep.
The courage to act on a sudden hunch,
The nerve to tackle the hardest thing,
With feet that climb and hands that
cling,
And a heart that never forgets to sing'
That's pep.
Sand and grit in concrete base
That's pep.
Friendly smile on an honest face
That's pep.
The spirit that helps when another's
down,
That knows how to scatter the black
est frown,
That loves it's ncighbor and loves its
town
That's pep.
To say Il wilr'-for you know you
can
That's pep.
To look for the best in every man
That's pep g.
TO meet each laundering knockout
And come back with a laugh, because
YOU know
You'll get the best of the whole darned
show
That's pep.
