of winter, causing US to increase our
heating in our homes.
Mr.. R. C. Tassie created quite an
exciting time Tuesday morning as he
went on swift trot with his black
span of horses, taking one of the
smaller houses from near the Office
on skids and carrying it to near the
lake to be used in his new chicken
ranch.
I am glad to know that there are
plans for a more extensive advertise

ty. am glad to give any information
l can to further this interest at there
are so many real advantages in our
county and especially for summer
residents.

our summer advantages here are SUI
perior to Florida as winter resort.
The splendid cool soft water springs
are many and the splendid building
sites in so many parts of the county
where they can get the very best
crisp vegetables from their quick
growth. Advantages are also offered
to those who wish to cultivate the
soil for any purpose, especially the
farmer, who can produce one of the
best and most profitable fertilizers
right on his own ground by using the
limestone found in abundance in diff
ferent parts of the county.
A quarry and kiln was operated
for years between Frankville and
Bond until the B. and 0. thought it
necessary to dispense with that side
track for the safety of the east
bound trains. Another has been OPP
Grated just south of Crellin, and
others could be opened along Sang
Run where there is quite cavern and
northward to either side of Gap Run.
From this last mentioned place the
farmers about Accident have made
their farms very productive.
There is also a lime kiln near Bear
creek, just south of the State road on
the Friendsville route, which has been
in use for some time.
