The W. G. Clagett Company,
Strawberries.
Mr. Ed Dietzel, the moving spirit of
the Dietzel Produce Co., appeared be
fore the Business Men's Club last Tues
day night and recomended that some
steps be taken to get the farmers inter
ested in the strawberry crop. Mr.
Dietzel stated in making this recommen
dation that the old berry growers, those
who are well known in Gibson County,
had testified to the fact that the berry
crop had yielded a net earning averaging
$50 a year or more for a period of ten
years. The berry growers and truck
ers of Gibson County had become land
owners and men of independent means
instead of tenants. Mr. Dietzel, who
is trying to take care of the berry crop
here for market, says that there is not
enough for car shipments, but he is
going to market it anyway. Now, the
most important statement he made
was that Obion County has grown bet
ter berries this year than any of the
samples coming from Gibson County.
He had Mr. Elva Caldwell to verify,
this statement. G. A. Stroud had a bet
ter crop than any of the berries he had'
handled from Gibson County, and Mr.
Stroud states that he made on five acres
last year over $380 net. His are the
Klondike berries. Mr. Dircks, another
berry grower, substantiates the state
ment that wo can grow line berries for
market in this county at a better profit
than either wheat or corn. He says
that berries will bring a profit of fifty
dollars or more per acre.
Now Mr. Dietzel wants to call a
meeting of those interested. Some
have already agreed to put in berries,
but a larger acreage is wanted, and a
club is to be organized for that purpose.
A committee was named with Mr. Diet
zel as chairman, and Messrs. Elva Cald
well and Sam'l D. Woosley as associ
ates for this work.

Miss Wingo.
Miss Cora. Wingo, than whom there
is no more popular teacher in this or
any other" school, has severed her con
nection here and has accepted a position
in the public school of Little Rock, Ark.
Our school board is now in the unen
viable position of having to supply a
teacher to fill the place so ably and ac
ceptably occupied by Miss Wingo for
fifteen years. During this time she has
left an impress for good upon over one
thousand children. Surely hers has been
agreit and noble work, affecting as it
has directly and indirectly so many
young lives. One of her former pupils
was heard to say the other day that
"Miss Cora," as we affectionately call
her, "had had more influence for good
on the boys of Union City than anyone
who ever lived here."
We hope that her work in the new
field may be pleasant, profitable and
productive of much good. We con
gratulate Little Rock. '
