I carry in stock everything that it takes to build a house and the prices are right. W. E. YOUNG, The Shingle Man. TYRO. The speed in which some people are traveling in the destruction of timber is fearfn!. At the present rate of waste it will only be a few years before you will have to buy ] cool or haul wood from a long dis tance. What will a poor renter do ; when he has the same or more I rents to pay, buy wood and the j good Lord only knows what else; at I the present rate of wastfulness, not only in timbers, but in crops — careless gathering and still less care in housing. Take the hay crop, j There was any amount of it this year that could have been saved j but was thought too thin or too much trouble to save. Then the j weather was hot or its likely to rain, I may loose my work. So the grass ' npened and enriches the ground i for the tyrant and abused landlord. Then there’s but few who gather their corn. 1 can make from S'J to $5 a day picking up corn behind the gatherer. The cotton crop —the cash crop, the pay our debts crop, the buy us bread and meat crop, the king crop —is badly neglected —left in the field sometimes until it’s stained, ginned and tossed about in half enough bagging, and takes rain and sun, sleet and snow —a remnant left in the field because the weather gets cold and bolls are sharp and the fingers get sore in the pickings, and before you will pick it move to another tyrant and get on a credit what you could have paid cash for if you had saved the cotton, hay and corn. Then some are forced to live in very poor houses. First, because the landlord is too close or stingy to build, and if he did the tenants would destroy or not take care of improvements. One tenant burns up a garden fence, another a lot, and a third fails to work around the ends of his rows; lets the weeds and briars creep on him from every quarter of the globe. Another lets terraces go and water runs at radom over shallow plowed land and soon you have all bottom land, for the ton is gone to fill creeks and ditches, clog the water channels and make good bottom land a boggy sickly puddle hole. The tenant is not to carry all the burden, for an honest landlord can watch after his farm, make such contracts as they can easily comply with, then visit the farm often, encourage the tenant by kind words and in gentle manner point out the errors; pay him a little extra to do something he ought to do without pay. It will move most men to do their part. Stay away* from them if your temper is up, less you speak in a tone that belies your true feeling.

Recently they went about among one class invit ing them to a dance and to another set inviting them to the same place to a pound supper. 'They knew how to get the girls they wanted, and knowing, too, the nature of gay young hearts for fun would not leave even a dance, if they did 1k?- long to the church. I am sorry you girls were not brave an'd sacri ficing enough to go home when you are thus imposed upon. This with love to everybody and respect to whom it is due. Tyrant.
