Killarney, Ga., April n 1903.
Editor Early County News:
The young crops are looking
pretty just now.
It will soon be time for the fish
erman to start his yarns.
Mr. J. T. McMullen, our clevet
merchant, postmaster and farmer,
has a mercantile interest in Donal
son ville.
We have heard of the girls who
can make the goo goo eyes, but the
girls that we bachelors like are the
ones that make the good good pies.
Notwithstanding the busy farm
season, and the much sickness that
we have had in this community,
our school is holding its own much
better than we expected.
Our K>ads are needing some work
done on them now. We again
call your attention to the fact, Mr.
Road Man, you must not slight
south Early.
We notice that President Roose
velt is making a tour of the wes
tern states. He is hunting some
thing larger than a Mississippi bear
this time. For instance, it might
be the nomination in 1904.
So far not a single pot “still”
has been found in this part of the
county. The boys down here pre
fer to drink pond water and fight
mosquitoes. I hear Bill Snipes
now singing:
'v. “That skeeter fly high
That skeHgpr fly low;
If I get my loot on that skeeter’s
neck.
That skeeter won’t fly no more,”
There are more junior cultiva
tors and harrows, in this part of the
county than have ever been before,
and the farmers are using them to
an advantage, too. We wish some
of the o'd time *‘sagers” who are
opposed to improved farming im
p'emenls could see some of the j
woi k we have seen this week.
They would go away back and sit,
down and say: “Who would have
thought it? Sure’y the time has
already come, when the farmer has
learned new tricks, too.”
