MOVING BLUEBERRY

Lawson Stapleton VIII Renew Elk
pertinent With Berries In
Higher Ground

Between four and five hundred
burberry shrubs brought here a year
or SO ago from Florida by Lawson
Stapleton and planted in bottom land
in Brooklyn Heights have recently
been transplanted into higher land
where he anticipates greatest success
in cultivation of this luscious fruit.
The cultivation of blue berries in
Sumter county is now in he expert
mental stage, though the crop prom
ises to become one of commercial
value within a few years. w. j.
Josey and a number of others besides
Stapleton have planted numbers Of
the shrubs, and it is estimated there
are now more than two thousand of
these scattered throughout Sumter
county.
The berries, which are said to be
highly priced by thousands for their
delicate favor, grow lururiantly IN
Florida on the poorest kind of soil,
and sell readily at good prices in
northern an deastern cities, as well as
in Jacksonville, Atlanta and Birming
ham, where shipments are made red
larly by FLORIDA growers.

More Than $4,000 Growers in

DALLAS, Tex, March. 6.-More
than $4,000 cotton growers in Texas
Oklahoma, Arizona and Arkansas
now market their products through
cooperative organizations, according
to reports from these organizations
G made public.
~ln Texas the Farm Bureau Cattle

Of the American Cotton Growers Ex-
change states that the cotton belong
ing to these members are placed in
warehouses and the grower is ad-
vanced money to the amount of so
per cent of the value Of his crop at
the first of the year. After this the
cotton is pooled and sold in an order
ly manner, preserving an average
price for the year.
However cooperative movement
appears to have made great head
way in other agricultural lines in
Texas, the Melon growers exchange
numbering AZ local organizations
while the Sweet Potatoe Growers
number 1876 members in Is counties.
The Wool and Mohair farmers have
organized what is known as the

All of these associations claim as

ARMY CADILLAC GONE;
FAMILIAR SIGHT HERE

The old Army Cadillac which has
been one of the most familiar con-
nections with Souther Field will
be seen on the streets of Americas
no more. This viii probably convey
to the reader the impression that
at last, Southern Field is really to be
closed. Almost daily the question is
asked of the army people if the field
is to be maintained for flying, if it TO
be sold, and countless other questions
that record their interest. Orders
were received by the Cadillac weeks
ago to proceed to BeiI.ville, ILL., Scott
Field balloon school for duty. The
shortage of railroad facilities at the
present time delayed the executing of
orders until yesterday, when with
many a groan and squeak the old
Cadillac was finally loaded for ship,
ment.
That the Cadillac, battle worn and
SCARED as any fighter who flew over
the lines in the great world conflict,
is still capable of groaning and
squeaking, is most remarkable fact.
It's duty during the station at the
flying field here has been for official
service.
This viii raise the question in many
minds just what is official business
with an army Cadillac. There has
already been a ruling that for Army
folks to return calls or perform So
cial obligations is actually official.
How far does that ruling go a young
woman recently asked-of the Com
handing Officer. It is official to take
a young woman to dance in the
Cadillac? A reminiscent smile from
the officer indicated it would depend
entirely upon who the young woman
was.
Is it official for an an officers wife
to be driven to church Sunday morn
ing was another question raised.
Silence on the part of the officer
questioned, indicated it was much
more official for him to drive to the
golf course Sunday morning or to
90 into town for bunch of Sunday
papers and some smoking tobacco.
SIS it official for the army women
10 attend parties or go shopping III
the Gadillac," some have wondered
eyes, most asuredly, if the other
cars were not running which they sell
dom were. Also if the officers of the
field had a pet diversion for hammer
ing on their own cars in the garage,
there by practically disabling them
most of Che time.
rs it ever Official, last, but not
least, many people ask, for an officer
to take the one of his choice riding on
fine moonlight night?" The OF
ficcr will tell you yes, directly.
The Cadillac has served the army
reople well, always answering the
call of distress when other means OF
transportation have failed.
7 And as a reward for its faithful
ness and service it will probably re-
ceive warm reception, perhaps even
few more bars or marks OF DIS
tinction7 when it is met and recog-
nizcd by Major Earl Schoteld and
his family who are now living at
Scott Field, to which place the old
Cadillac has linked its future des-
tines

A COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT
FOR BELINGTON HIGH SCHOOL

M
There are many reasons why the
Belington High School should have
a Commercial Department.
First, because high school is not
only established for the benefit Of
thise DESTROYS Of College and Univer-
sity careers, but, also for those
whose vocations destine them for
them for business and commercial
pursuits.
Second, Our department as it is
now exists is commercial one in
name only. We teach two subjects,
Penmanship and Bookkeeping, both
Of which are minor in comparison to
those disregarded, namely, Type
writing and Stenography. So, ma
turally, when our students have
completed their so-called course, they
are far from being prepared for a
business or commercial career.
Third, Lack Of such training bars
one from success. No matter what
business inclinations the student
might possess, he cannot hope to
succeed without specialized training.
Employers will gladly pay real
money for those properly equipped
and when we stop moment and
consider the insignificance Of the
money necessary to complete our De-
partment, q grave mistake or over
sight has been made.
The equipment necessary would be
few good Typewriters and text
books on Stenography.
It is our duty to give our boys and
girls the best. we can. Here and
there high school is found, that
has forged ahead, and gives it's stu
dents more knowledge, more power,
than other children get, and if our
children, in their battle of life, should
fall owing possibly, to our misplace
ed economy Lack of equipment then
that failure is due to us, not to their
minds. So in conclusion 1 ask that
you give this. matter your serious
consideration. Our reward will be
q hundred fold, and the blessings and
acknowledgements Of the men and
women of. tomorrow, for the fore
sight and progressivenessr of you Of
today will be dividends, impossible to
compute in dollars and cents.
