' l WATERIN GFORD NEWS. Weill I'll be shiver my slats old woman if I'm not just a month behind! Why? Why, because the last week's Dispatch-News is dated July 21su, 1922. I thought I'd send in a little j news but that makes it appear too stale, but any way here goes. The hot dry weather continues and j crops begin to need rain, although cotton and young corn are not suffer- j ing^ yet. Messrs. J. W. and S. R. Ballingr ton of the Clark's Mill section visited ' relatives hereabouts last Sunday. H. A. and Mrs. Howard spent last Sunday with their son, M. M. Howard and family.

A motor road leading: to Camp Alice, which is practically the top of Mount Mitchell, will be opened to the public this week. The initial trip over this new highway was made last | Monday when a party of railroad of-1 ficiais and newspaper men ascended I the peak as the guests of builders. Itj is a truly beautiful route and the j *~r\r> n-o t r>nnQir?Arino' its- r??wr>?><sv! n rt r} i the dificulties of construction, is all that could be expected. It will improve. too. with each succeeding week of travel. Many South Carolinians have stood on the "highest point east of the Rockies," making the ascent by foot, muleback, or on the log railroad, j Those who went up in the last named j way are familiar with the route tra-j versed by the motor way for the two | are identical The rails and ties have j been removed and the highway built j on the railroad's roadbed. It is nar-j row and therefore a one way road? j ill travel being up in the morning and ! down in the afternoon. Some of the ! ! curves are sharp and the driver must j use care, but, as a whole, the road is satisfactory. Camp Alice is a familiar spot to all j vho have been on Mitchell, but to | :hose who have not made the ascent | it might be said that a climb of about j half a mile (maybe a little more) | must be made to reach the top of the tsy next year tne ounuers nuue iu uc ible to have the roadway to the top. The entrance to the highway isT>ade through a toll gate near Black j : Mountain, the entrance being made Trom the main highway leading out :rom Ashevilel.

Other towns will go one hundred percent cooperath'o as hundreds of acres surrounding the big markets' begin to gfow tobacco for the farmers' own organization. Thousands of acres more- will be addc-d to the real pool before the markets open, as comrrmees in evsry large tobacco growing county of South Carolina push the signup to the limit in the few days that remain J in which to sign the present crop.
