A Paying Investment It seems that an oil mill located iere would be one of as good pay ng investments as could be et ddished. Why not get busy and have tin mil ready for this season’s crop »f send. Have we not enough euterpris ig citizens in town and surround ing country to put an oil mill ii iperntiou lure? Sure we have I'hen why put it off? Is there not plenty of seed pro luced in the county to sustain tin ■ rganization? Judging from tin juantity shipped from here foi >ur or five seasons past, then voukl be an ample supply. It would furnish employment to lumbers of people who have to dt 'end entirely upon t heir daily labor o maintain themselves and amities. It would be profitable to its dockholders; an t would be one ot the best enterprises to build the town that could be erected. With a well organized baud of mr leading business men and sub itantiai planters standing nt its ie<.d, it would certainly be a success; thereby enabling the town to offer better inducements in sev eral ways. Our mercantile establishments ami other business enterprise? would cater to an enormous tradt that has heretofore been going out of the county. Let some of our most enterpris ng citizens get busy and apply for i charter at once for an oil mill to >e erected here. Delightfully Entertained. Mrs. S. Al.
