Mnsei'ra Items. Christmas has passed and the new year is now before ns. Mav we form good rules and |may we be governed by them., for we know not whatTmr troubles*and tribu¬ lation's will be the coining year. Some of the farmers are clean¬ ing oil’ their laud preparing for the coming crop. Most of them have about secured their labor for an¬ other \ ear. From the present out look of some of our most pro ineufc farm¬ ers there will probly be a large crop of cottorf again this year, as there are several large tracks o! land being cleaned up near this place for that purpose. The young people enjoyed sev¬ eral parties in this community last week. Miss Leila Webb, of Goshen Valley was visiting relatives and friends in this vicinity last week.

A reception was givenbv Mr. and Mrs. Moore, to the Sunday school of Ceres during the holi¬ days.
