BAIRDSTOWN.
, BILLY BOY.
—Planting with a rush this week.
—The straglers hunting work. Out
of rations.
—There are few darkies in our beat
who do no work at all and yet they
live.
—Mrs. John F. Cone went up to
Crawford last Sunday to spend John some F.
time with the family of Rey.
Cheney.
—Rev. R. S. Cheney, of Carlton,
came over to see his mother last Satur¬
day and preached a fine Bairds sermon church to a
large congregation at on
Sunday.
—We forgot to mention last week that
there is a fine boy at the home of II.
G. Young and all doing well. He will
soon be independent of cuffee—plenty
of labor at home.
—Mr. Marshal Boatwright, of Hele¬
na, Wilkes county, made a visit to our
burg Saturday evening last on his bicy¬
cle and spent the night with the family
of B. T. Herndon.
—Cotton seed to plant are in great
demand in our vicinity. The low
price of cotton last fall caused the
farmers to sell down too close. Don’t
fret, brother farmers; there is plenty
of seed corn. Just plant the land in
corn and peas and you will hit it right
next fall.
—Plow 3tock is too short on many
farms to prepare the land and get the
crop in in time, and not an idle horse
to be found anywhere. A man asked
me the other day what became of all
the ten-dollar mules that was herea¬
bout last fall. They are gone and are
at work somewhere. That is, the live
ones.
—April coming in od Monday will will
bring our court on the 15th. It be
pressing business that will take the
average farmer out of his field and car¬
ry him to court at that time this year.
But little cotton will be planted and
not many ready to plant. So we guess
that the town will not be crowded
much that week.
—The little rise in cotton now at
planting time is noticed by the papers
and people and often spoken of, but
you don’t hear a word about the rise in
the price of corn and meat. Those
who will have to buy bread at present
prices to make o-cents cotton with will
be out in the cold next winter. It is
just simply impossible for a farmer
who is a renter to pay for rent, guano
and bread and live at the prices the
different articles are bringing. Sugar,
coffee and clothing bills cannot be met
although he be ever so industrious.
Prevention
better than cure. Tutt’s Liver
Pills will not only cure, but if
taken in time will prevent
Sick Headache,
dyspepsia, biliousness, malaria,
constipation, jaundice, torpid
liver and kindred diseases.
