BEING THANKFUL

Today North Carolina celebrates Thanks
giving day, attending church services, foot
ball games, eating turkey and simply being
thankful.
Many are disturbed over the fact that
some of the states have already observed
this American holiday. But history reveals
that even in North Carolina where Tar
Heels cling to tradition, Thanksgiving
dates have not always been the same each
year. ps--:s, .,s,,.a..s,.. PCS
We have come long way since that
band of hardy Pilgrims observed the first
Thanksgiving in the new land, over 300
years ago, but now as then, Americans
have many things for which to be thank
full. Those same principles for which our
forefathers stood are still of paramount i'm
portance to us.
Today in many countries religion is
frowned upon, and churches are destroyed;
men die or 90 to concentration camps for
expressing opinions; other men write or
speak and the citizens must read or listen;
the people have little voice in government
and are hindered by regulations in their
travel; war ravages many countries, and
others are paralyzed by the fear of it.
But here in America, the land of the free,
we worship as we please without molesta-
ton; we enjoy the freedom of speech and
read only what we want to; we listen to
the radio or cut it off as we so desire; we
operate our government and we travel
where we please for the price of ticket;
above all else we enjoy peace and prosperi-
ty. These are few of the many things for
which we can be thankful. Does it matter
greatly on what day we observe Thanks
giving as long as we are truly thankful?

COOPERATION FOR CHRISTMAS

There is no finer demonstration of the
Christmas spirit than that of cooperation,
or working together. Man cannot live by
himself, but is dependent on his fellowmen
to a large extent And when we stop to rea-
lie we can see that it is through helping
others that we help ourselves. By being
good neighbor, we make good neighbors OF
others.
Economists reveal, that according to sta
tistics, this should be a generous Christmas,
that Christmas buying will be around ten
percent higher than it was last year. II
business is ten per cent better in Ashe
county, everyone here will be that much
better off, The way to make business bet
ter here is to keep it here; for by trading
with hometown merchants we help our
selves indirectly through helping them and
this section.
Every one likes to get the most for his
money, and we would not advocate trading
at home if prices were beyond reach or II
selections were poor. But here in West
jefferson, merchants offer the buying pub
lie values comparable to those found any
where else; and here too you will find
wide selection to choose from. Give them
the opportunity of serving you and if they
cannot do it, it is their fault, not yours
Let's make Ashe county more prosper
Gus this year, and make this more gene
rous Christmas by doing our shopping with
hometown merchants. Let's have one-hun-
dred percent spirit of cooperation along
with the Christmas spirit.

LET THE
SPARKS
FLY"
by
G.. F.
MESSICK
~. t.H. 4


To the farm wife the electric
range means no more sweating
over a hot stove; no more keep
ing a wood box full; no more
carrying out ashes; no more SCOT
and smoke. It also means that
more and better cooking can be
done in a fraction of the time re-
quired by the old method.
With an Electric Range cook
ing becomes a pleasure instead OF
dreaded task. The farm wife is
free for other work or recreation.
For instance, if she wants, she can
put her meat, vegetables and 9TH
er dishes in the oven, set the in
dicator or time clock so that the
current will snap on and off at
the selected time.
Many delicious dishes can be
prepared by the farm wife on the
modern range, and in its oven
without the unpleasant, some
times runious after effects of
smoke and smell, not to mention
elimination of fire hazards. The
electric range also gives the ad-
vantages of regular and easily
controlled heat.
One of the most important fac
tors in the economical operation
of an electric range is intelligent
operation, which means the fol-
lowing of each suggestion as
these
For Surface Units
/. Turn switch to Glow" or me
dunn" as soon as cooking process
has started.
2. Turn switch off a few min
utes before cooking is finished
and allow food to finish on the
stored heat.
3. Use pans the right size or
duplicate or triplicate pan, to
cook several foods over the one
burner. Be sure the bottoms are
flat to insure close contact with
the heating unit.
: 4. In cooking vegetables use as
little water as possible.
5. Do not use a double boiler.
A heavy aluminium pan with heat
| turned low will give better re-
suits.
For The Oven
l. Cook as many dishes as pos
sible in the oven at one time.
2. Avoid opening the oven door
except when putting in or remov-
ing food from oven.
3. Do not pre-heat the oven ex-
cept when necessary.
4. Utilize stored heat in the
oven

CONGRATULATIONS TO BOONE

One of the most successful civic enter
prises and one of the biggest assets to this
section of North Carolina, Virginia and
Tennessee is the recent establishment OF a
Burley tobacco market in Boone.
Starting in 1880, the production OF tobac-
co in the northwestern part OF this state
has increased each year until now nearly
1000 farmers in Ashe alone raise Burley.
Tn Watauga, as we'll as in other counties,
it has also become one of the leading
crops in comparatively short time.
Along with this growth in production
the marketing problem has become more
acute each year. The nearest markets nave
been too far and season after season 1t has
been more difficult for farmers to sell their
tobacco after they took it to the ware
houses because of blocked sales.
Being in the center Of Burley produc-
ing area and realizing the need for better
marketing facilities the progressive and
public-spirited business and professional
men of Boone went to work in earnest last
spring and labored diligently and faithful
ly until they secured full set OF buyers,
raised the necessary amount OF money to
construct modern, $25, 900 warehouse. Not
a stone was left unturned and we congratu-
late the fine citizens of Boone and Watau-
ga county in the establishment OF the
Mountain Burley Market, which will open
on December 18th.
This paper advocated the establishment
of tobacco market here long before Boone
launched their movement Some effort was
made to obtain one, but the program
Jagged, partly because of several other ac-
tivities, including the fair and hospital pro-
iects which required lot of time and mo-
ney.
Again we wish to congratulate Boone
and also The Watauga Democrat, which is
sued last Thursday one Of the finest special
market opening editions that we have ever
seen.

Farmers Can Get
Phosphate Under
3-AProgran Now
ProposiFnn for 1910 is More
Attractive. Orders Are
Now Being Taken.

Triple super-phosphate viii |
again be available to farmers un-
der the soil conservation program
of 1910 end the proposition for
next year is more attractive than
it was in 1889, according to in
formation obtained from the
Ashe county farm agents office
yesterday.
Last year a charge of $3.50 per
bag, to be applied against pay
ments earned, was made and in
addition to that the farmers had
to pay 80 cents per bag for trans
portation charges.
The 1910 program provides
that the transportation charges
can also be applied on AAA pay
ments, making the total OF
amount per bag $1,8O, with no
cash outlay from the farmer at
all.
Another beneficial feature is
that under the 1910 program a
small farmer can earn mini
mum of $4,000, which would give
him at least 1000 pounds Of triple
super-phosphate, if SO desired.
Orders are now being taken at
the farm agents office for phos-
phate and deliveries can be made
within two weeks time.
c. J. Rich, county agent, point
ed out that the application OF
phosphate to pasture lands and
meadows is just as effective II
applied during winter months as
any other time of the year.
He also stated that farmers l1v-
ing in and around Lansing can
haul from Lansing if they Will
get up enough orders for car
load at one time.
Arrangements are also beng
made to take orders for lime in
the near future.
