Of David H. Lane, long political
potentate of the twentieth ward,
Philadelphia and for years one of the

queathed $500 to any man or boy,
named before Mr.. Lanes death, whose
name included Lane" David Lane"

The beQuest was understood by Mr..
Lanes friends to be an effort to ac-
knowledge posthumously the fact that
many admiring fathers had named sons
for him, and not to be due to mere
vanity.
Expected Many Applicants.
The executors of the estate expected
many applications for the $500 legacies.

provided that the claim be made with.

the executors explained that this provi-
sion was obeyed strictly.
Each OF the 20 claimants approved
received $500, making total of Sl4, 500
solely on the basis of a name. OF the
recipients only eight were minors. Mr..
Lane was IS when he died, and babies
had been named for him so long ago

for Mr.. Lane, and In each case both
father and son received legacies of $500.

1886 for the same commodity in 1912.

KRA FACTORY
INCREAoESOU OUTPUT
Operations Will Begin at Local Plant
Today; rs People VIII be Employ
ed to Produce Over so Carloads of

Next Year

Mr.. W. F. Miller, secretary treas
urer of the North State Canning
Company, is in town this week look
ing over the local kraut factory and
getting everything in readiness for
the cutting and canning season
which opens today, and which prom
ises to be the busiest thus far eX-
perienced. Five new fermenting
vats have been added since last sea
son with a capacity of so tons each
which exactly doubles the capacity
of the plant. 1t is expected to fill
the vats twice, making 1000 tons OF
the now famous Watauga sauel
kraut. Mr.. Miller will be here dur
ing the canning season, while Mr.
H. Neal Blair will remain as super.
intendent.
Last year, Mr.. Miller said, only 4C
acres of cabbage were used by the
factory, whreas this summer ~ 12
acres have been contracted. Under
the terms of the contracts the lane
seeded to cabbage is to produce Il
tons to the acre. Twenty-Five peo
pie will be employed during the can
ming season, and the work of cut
ting, fermenting and canning the
bumper crop will not be finished be
fore the middle of March. The
finished output will be equivalent tC
more than so standard guage cal
loads, or about 10000 cases, in ad
dition to huge quantities of Juice
which enjoys widespread distribu
ton and is considered a luxury a
the breakfast table.
Farmers of the county are urged
to sell their cabbage to the krau
factory, as it affords a dependable
market each year, and by disposing
of their product here they contrib
ute their part toward the rapiC
growth of one of Watauga's mos
promising industries.
Mr.. Miller tells The Democrat tina

lSAACS' MIDSUMMER VALUES
CAUSE RECORD SELLING

"Never in the history of our busi-
ness have we had such a widespread
response to sales event." said L. S.
lsaacs, owner of Isaacs' Department
Store, when questioned as to the
midsummer sales period, which open
ed at his store on last Friday morn
ing. The store was filled all day
Friday and Saturday with buyers
who had been drawn from over Wat
auga and adjoining counties by the
intensive advertising and the high
standard of the values offered, and
still they come. Business for this
week has started out so favorably
that Mr.. Isaacs has made no plans
as to the closing day, and the values
are just as enticing now as Oh the
opening day.
Mr.. Isaacs conducts one Of the
foremost dry goods stores in this
part of the state, features standard
goods and enjoys fine business His
sales, however, while the midsummer
offerings are on, have surpassed all
former records. Thorough and con-
sistent advertising, coupled with
compelling values, did really bring
home the bacon," according to Mr..
Isaacs.
Those who have not visited Isaacs'
since the sale began, will find re-
plenished stocks, and the same low
prices that characterized the selling
on the opening day.
