Belton is a synonymous of the
"words growth and progress.
Twelve years ago the town of
Belton was a mere country vil
lage with, perhaps 5Q0 or 600
population. That about describes
? the Belton of twelve years ago,
" but those few hundred people be
lieved in Belton-they realized
that the town was located to good
advantage, situated in the richest
section of the State, and that Bel
ton could not help becoming a
town of importance, and they
vcfit tc tiggrfc to build Belton. As
a result the town's growth has
been something marvelous. In
just twelve years this population

BELTON TO~HAVE A NEW j
TpIGHWAY TO ANDERSEN.
Belton hopes in.the near future
to have a new road to Anderson.
The proposed road will run < be
; tween W. J. Moorhead and John
A. Horton and on through the
Rice, Stringer, D. A. Geer and J.
N. Willingham property and will
intersect the Anderson road at
the Pepper place. This is a little
change in the first route planned.
The first route would have struck
the Poore property. This route,
together with the changes already
granted by the property owners
at Broadway Creek; gives Ander
son and Belton an ideal highway,
a long felt need. The proposed
new route will not exceed a 4 per
cent jjrade. A very bad piece o?
road just outside the city limits is
responsible possible of the new
route.

? We hssriilv srr?? With
friend. Cotton "dresses on the day
of the Belton Fair aud every day
for the next two years would cre
ate a greater demand for cotton
goods. Our ladies, if they will
come together through the cot
ton states and buy and wear only
cotton goods, we believe that the
price of cotton will advance more
rapidly. We promised the writer
that we would make a request
for the ladies to wear cotton
dresses oft the day of the fair, and
we are glad that he called our at
tention to it through the Journal.
