Caught In Passing
I: seems the Sand Mountain
read is really going to be built
his time Not only have the
stakes been driven, as they
have so many times before,
we see they have cleared s;me
of the right of way. The same
company’ won he contract as
is repairing the Lookout Moun-
:a j n R 0 ad, so maybe when that
is finished work will really start
in earnest on the Sand Moun¬
tain road.
The gap at the top of Lock¬
out Mountain seems to be ge -
ting wider and wider as the
rock bank is blasted out. The
failing rock at times cover the
road bed closing the road but
we understand the old Sitton
Mill road has been made pass¬
able in dry weather. This is the
old dirt road which ccmes off
the mountain beyond \Pete
Round ree’s place and joins the
paved road at the large horse
shoe curve. Better not try it in
a car until you ask someone
first.
To you who have boys in the
service; it would be a help and
save lo[s of ,ime if - when there
is illness in the family and you
are going to want to try to get
your b:y home, you would stop
by or send someone by the Red
Cross office in the newspaper
office with the information and
who the doctor is. When we re¬
ceive a telegram it takes time
for us to find out where you
are to find out who the doctor
is so that we may verify the
illness.
This week, for the first time
in some weeks, we had some
ourists step by the office ask¬
ing for some information on
the ‘State of Dade.” All we had
to give them were the reprints
we had made from the July 4,
1945 issue of The Dade County
TIMES. When are we going to
get some circulars or something
which we can give tourists to
tell them about our county?
We see men with a gun across
their knees sitting on the Look¬
out Creek bridge gazing down
the water below. Shooting
is against the law but each
we seem to have some of¬
We saw one school bus go by
afternoon with the
open and children stand¬
down on the step and yell¬
and acting up. The bus was
overloaded, indeed it did
even appear to be full. This

Soil Conservation
Hugh Clark
The expanding cattle and hog
population’in Dade County has
increased the need for more
available stock water. This sum
mer several farmers have built
stock ponds.
Generally, the ponds built
with a bulldozer and without
pipe drains have cost from $50
to $300, depending upon the
pond site and the size and
depth of the pond.
J, D. Pike and W. E. Pike on
Sand Mountain, had ponds
built on their farms last week
The deepest pond depth for
each when full will be 8 or9 ft.
and will cover from Vg to 3 4
acres.
Other farmers on Sand
Mt. who have built smaller
ponds this summer are: James
Lancaster J. C. Justice, L. S
Summerford and others.
Burkett Miller on Lookout Mt.
has constructed a very nice
stock and fish pond. The pond
surface will be approximtely
1 acre and the deepest water
will be 12 to 14 f . An 8 inch
cast iron drain and riser was
installed to permit draining the
pond and to take care of the
natural spring flow after the
pond is filled. Most of the wa-
* er around the edges of the
pond will be at least 2 ft. deep
the banks were out down or
filled to give this depth.
