Sign Up for Farmers' Tour in August, June 27, 1924

Farmers’ Tour

The week of August 11th-16th is the time set for the farmers of Macon County to make a trip to East Tennessee and some of the counties of Western North Carolina.

The points on the prepared route are as follows: Canning plant at Newport, Tenn.; poultry fattening plant at Morrison, Tenn.; creamery and poultry fattening plant at Bristol, Va.; kraut factory and cabbage and potato fields in Watauga County, N.C., creamery and soy bean harvesting machines at Lenoir, N.C.; dairy, creamery, and poultry fattening plant at Hickory, N.C.; apple orchards and cheese factory at Haywood County.

The expense of the trip should not be much, since the nights will be spent in camps. Those wishing to make the trip should see County Agent Arrendale at once so that plans can be made.
