I.N. Young’s Letter

—

The air fleet of forty-five ships arrived in Winter Haven Friday and spent the night. They gave some flying stunts. It was a nice sight to see them like a bunch of birds flying through the air, made one wish they could be with them. One very sad feature was the fatal accident to one of the ships at Barton, sixteen miles from Winter Haven. One of the pilots from New York was doing some air stunts and while 2,000 feet in the air something went wrong and the ship fell and hit struck in a dead tree killing the pilot and seriously injuring his companion. No one knows what the trouble was.

Winter Haven is greatly excited over the fact that the Florida Citrus Exchange will move from Tampa to Winter Haven. When it was decided to move the Exchange Orlando, Eagle Lake, Lakeland, and some other places entered the race to have the head quarters moved to their community, each city offering sites and inducements to get it. 1,500 growers bought and offered, free of cost, a building at a cost of $79,725 to the exchange. Just what this exchange is or does I am not well enough posted to give any accurate information, but I am told about 200 persons are required to operate it. These people will have to be housed and fed and will naturally help Winter Haven financially.

Thursday night of this week the queen for the Orange Festival will be chosen, also her maids of honor. Any girl from anywhere can enter the race. The buildings for the Festival are about complete and the Fair will be next week.

The Negro settlement, just outside Winter Haven, had a private killing Saturday night. Two Negroes got into a little scrap and one of them plugged the other with a bullet, killing him instantly. I do not know why they do not go on with the good work. Suppose they must be out of powder.

The sale of the forty-five used cars advertised by the Ford Motor Co., was pulled off, just how many cars were actually sold is not made public. The men working up the sale were from Danville, Va. They conducted the sale fai[r]ly giving notice they were selling used cars and would not guarantee anything but said any and all would be allowed to go over any car they wanted to bid on and could have anyone they wished to try out the car before the sale. Many presents were given away.

I was sorry to see in the Gazette of last week an account of the death of Mr. Bourne. I had known Mr. Bourne for a long time and always found in him a friend. This adds him to a list of friends who have departed since I left Grayson.

I had a letter from my daughter at Marion, Va., telling of the death of my cousin, Mattie Wolf. She was a sister of the late F.M. Young. She and her daughter, Stella, had kept the home fire burning for a number of years, while her son, Joe Wolf, who lived just across the road, looked after them and saw they did not want for anything. She leaves a large circle of children and grandchildren to mourn her passing. She lived to complete her 90th year. In the passing of Cousin Mattie I have lost a true friend. To the children I extend my heartfelt sympathies and to them I would say live as mother lived and you will make your life worth while.

I will not broadcast any Florida Air this week it is too chilly.

The many friends of J.F. Spainhour will regret to hear that his wife is perhaps seriously ill. In a letter from him yesterday he said she had been confined to her bed for two weeks with low blood pressure and weak heart, but was some better at that time.

Heavy frost in Florida last night.

STEVENS CREEK NEWS

—

We presume that we might be able to write another news letter. We hope we will not have to concoct the entire thing.

Isaiah 28:20 reads, “For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.”

Purchases Tags

Several car owners of this neighborhood have got their 1931 automobile tags while others have parked their cars until later on.

Have those New Year’s resolutions proved to be fragile? No, we will not disparage them.

Extremes

Old residents of Stevens Creek prophesied last summer, when we were having such extremely hot weather, that we were to have a severe winter due to the adage, “one extreme brings on another extreme.” It has been very cold this winter and although the writer is not much of a prognosticator, in our opinion we are going to have more cold and severe weather. Anyhow we are going to appreciate Spring.

Mrs. Arthur N. Moore has returned home from the Galax hospital and is doing nicely. We hope she will continue to do so.

Mrs. Grat Stanley, whose illness has been mentioned before, is getting better, we are happy to report.

Master Clyde Mallory has about recovered fully from his recent illness.

Master Warner Waller is able to be out again after a serious illness of pneumonia.

Mr. Pugh moved last week, to Buffalo, from Williams street.

Is the 18th Amendment a fiasco? We answer candidly, no. We don’t believe Prohibition has failed to prohibit and undoubtedly it will not be repealed, jeopardizing the gain it has made in eleven years.

The news letters from Ivanhoe, Route 2, are always interesting and worth reading. We like the way that correspondent words the news.

Two or three solicitations have failed to elicit a letter from Mr. Charles L. Vaughan. We believe a majority of the readers of the good and grand old Gazette (which we all enjoy) are always glad to read Mr. Vaughan’s letters from Washington.

The interest in the Methodist Sunday School, at this place, is enhancing, it seems.

The Epworthians at this place are doing nicely.

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Pennington are the proud parents of a nice boy, who made his arrival recently.

Mr. and Mrs. Homer L. Beckner, Miss Katye Mitchell and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Mitchell were week end visitors at Mr. W.V. Ward’s at Independence, R.F.D. Mrs. Beckner and Mrs. Mitchell’s uncle, Mr. Sam Ward, of South Dakota, are visiting relatives in that community after a prolonged absence.

Pleas accept our best Ground Hog Day regards.

IN MEMORIAM

—

Time speeds on—few days have passed,

Since death its gloom, its shadows cast;

Within your home where all seemed bright,

And took from you a shining light.

You miss that light and ever will,

Her vacant place there’s none to fill;

Down here we mourn but not in vain,

For up in Heaven we’ll meet again.

Written by her niece Mrs. Myrle Evans, Oxford, Pa.

Speedy Relief for Sore Throat

This Doctor’s Prescription Requires No Gargling

No longer is it necessary to gargle and choke with nasty tasting medicines to relieve sore throat. Now you can get almost instant relief with one swallow of a doctor’s famous prescription. This prescription was refilled so often that the druggist who originally filled it decided to put it up under the name “Thoxine” and make it available to everyone.

The remarkable thing about Thoxine is that it relieves almost instantly, yet contains nothing harmful. It is pleasant tasting, and safe for the whole family, and is guaranteed to relieve sore throat or coughs in 15 minutes or money back. Put up ready for use in 35¢, 60¢, and $1.00 bottles. Sold by Smith Drug Co. and all other good drug stores.

Agricultural Column

Winter Plowing

Every good day we have during the winter may well be used plowing the land for spring and early summer crops until the job is completed. All sod land and heavy or clay soils should be plowed during the early winter. Winter plowing gives times for the old sod, and all other vegetation to decay thoroughly, and the constant freezing and thawing of the plowed land during the winter aids greatly in pulverizing the soil in good condition before planting time. All the vegetation that is on the land should be plowed under, and not burned off. In many sections the practice of burning over fields to make plowing easier is entirely too common. Any vegetable matter plowed under now will have time to decay before crops are planted, and will add to the productivity of the soil. Early winter plowing also destroys weeds and kills many insects that may injure the crop. One of the most important advantages of early plowing is that land plowed now will absorb and store up a much greater quantity of moisture for the crop than when plowed just before planting time. Land plowed in the early winter should be left rough until time to plant in the spring. Where the top soil of a field is not already 8 to 10 inches deep, it is a good practice to plow deep enough during the winter to bring up an inch or two of subsoil. This system will in time give a top soil of 10 inches over the entire farm, which is desirable for all of our most important crops.

Stubble land, land without covering or light sandy or open soils where there is danger of washing, are best plowed in the early spring.

Makes Seeding Easier

It is particularly desirable that land intended for spring crops be plowed early, so that the seed may be sown quickly when planting time comes. One of the chief reasons more oats are not seeded early in the Spring is because when seeding time arrives it is hard to catch the soil in order to plow.

D.T. Painter, County Agent

FORD

SMOOTHNESS

The new Ford has more than twenty ball and roller bearings

EVIDENCE of the high quality built into the new Ford is the extensive use of ball and roller bearings. There are more than twenty in all—an unusually large number. Each bearing is adequate in size and carefully selected for the work it has to do.

At some points in the Ford chassis you will find ball bearings. At others, roller bearings are used regardless of their higher cost. The deciding factor is the performance of the car.

The extensive use of ball and roller bearings in the new Ford insures smoother operation, saves gasoline, increases speed and power, gives quicker pick-up, decreases noise, and gives greater reliability and longer life to vital moving parts.

Other outstanding features that make the new Ford a value far above the price are the Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield, silent, fully enclosed four-wheel brakes, four Houdaille double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers, aluminum pistons, chrome silicon alloy valves, three-quarter floating rear axle, Rustless Steel, the extensive use of fine steel forgings, and unusual accuracy in manufacturing.

LOW PRICES OF FORD CARS
