POULTRY SHOW
AT HILLSBORO
Will Take Place Probably About
the Middle of February.
Webb Lands Building
MUCH INTEREST IN PLAN

Plans are being made to hold
a poultry show in Hillsboro for
the farmers of Orange county.
Probably it will take place about
the middle of February.
Cheshire Webb, the Hillsboro
merchant, has offered to let part
of one of his buildings on Hills
boro's main street be used for
the show.
The plan is to have no more
than one coop brought by each
exhibitor. The States greatest
poultry experts will be on hand
to act as judges.
R. P. Harris, the agriculture
teacher in the Chapel Hill school,
has been going about the coun-
ty these last few days enlisting
the help of the farmers to make
the show success. They have
expressed enthusiasm about the
idea, and are anxious to show
specimens from their flocks.
There will be White Leghorns,
Brown Leghorns, Buff Orping-
tons, Wyandottes, Barred
Rocks, Rhode Island Reds, Ply
mouth Rocks, Cornish Games,
and perhaps other breeds on dis
play.

Carrb0rO's New Lights
Town Is Figuring ON System of
illumination

1t is likely that the town of
Carrboro will have new street
lights installed soon.
The board Of aldermen have
been consulting with Messrs
Bennett and Graham of the Uni
Versity Power Plant and have
been getting estimates of cost.
No definite decision has been
reached yet, one of the alder
man said yesterday.
The cost of the materials and
the installation will no doubt
he evenly divided between the
town and the power plant, if The
scheme goes through, and then
the current will be charged for
at the rate of 81 a month for
each light, the same rate paid
by the town of Chapel Hill. The
idea is to have about a dozen
lights, distributed about Carr
boro where most needed.
