THE SPRING.
The farmers are alxvut through
pulling fodder and are now pick
ing cotton, but in won’t take long,
as the crop is short.
You can hear the sound of the
whistle, the hum of the gin and the
rattle of the wagon, but it won’t
he for long, as the short crops will
soon he marketed, and the farmer
may reflect on “what might have
been-” The farmer has a hard
time, and will as long as he farms
fora living and buys everything he
eats. Every farmer ought to raise

meat and bread at home. We will
never amount to anything as long
as we live out of a paper sack.
Cotton should be raised to buy

We have all sorts of laws—the
school law, the church law, the pos
sum law, the bird law, the temper
ance law; wo have state-wide pro
hibition and world-wide drunken
ness. If we violate the laws of
nature, sickness follows; if we
violate the laws of the state a pen
alty follows, and if we violate the
laws of Cod in hell we will lift up
our eyes- So of all these evils let
us choose the least and live at
home. This is what we need; Corn
in the crib and chickens in the
yard; meat in the smokehouse and
a tub full of lard; cream in the
pitcher and honey in mug
eider in the demijohn and licker
in tin' jug. Do no eh.
