A bapi y new year to all.
Christmas has gone and everybody
seemed to enjoy the holidays splendidly
in oar community. The Christmas tree
was well attended and Robt. Brack well
received the moat valuable present ef
any who received presents. (The Carroll
Free Press.) He is not yet the head of
a family, but wants to be from ail ap
pearances and I don’t think he cares a
red who knows it. If all the boys who
voted in the election here on September
14th for a teacher are the heads of fami
lies there are a large number of families
in our community that are absolutely
hidden away and furthermore if all who
voted are patrons of the school,the num
ber woutd be 60 or 70 instead of 12 or
14.
Married at the resdence of the bride’s
father on the 29th nit., Mr. Bob Wood*
ard to Miss Ella Duke. May joy and
happiness follow them as they journey
along through life.
Mrs, M. M. Starr had a sale on the 1st
day of the year with the expectation of
going to Arkansas. Some fighting was

If we had all the dust that lies
On all the family Bibles, we
Would press it into bricks and build
An island in the Silent-Sea.
And we would people it with groans,
With sobs and sitrhs and vain regrets;
With tears that fall from orphaned eyes,
With everything that grief begets.
Foi all men’s woes and crosses, we
Would search the world on every hand,
And bear them in a shadow ship
Unto the Ilse of No Man’s Land’
The God should gaze benignant down,
Upon that sorrow-laden isle,
With every grief should change to joy.
And eyery tear become a smile.

Christmas has come and gone and we
are permitted to enter the year 1896
How thankful we should be to the Giver
of all good for extending our lives to see
the dawn of another year. Let us all try
to improve socially, morally and relig
iously and be wise and Intelligent. Let
us all study what is best for us all and
vote intelligently for that principle.
Stand square for principle that is sound,
both religiously and financially. I want
sound money, both gold and silver to be
worth one hundred cents in the dollar
and bank bills to be worth one hundred
cents in a dollar and let everybody pay
their just debts one hundred cents in a
dollar and that is uothing but just and
right to all. The above are my principle!
and I want to deal fair and square with
all men wbat time 1 live, let others do
as they think best. I shall contend for
honest principle every way.
There has been so many weddings
they are too tedious to mention them all.
Now we will just say let the good work
go on, as it is honorable.
There has been several sales and some
few moving west. Money being so scarce
property was sold very low.
I learn that S. V. Cole has rented the
M. E. Murphy place and will not go to
Arkansas this season. Just as I expec
ted, his Arkansas would be close by.
The weather has been so cold the far
mers have done bat little plowing since
Christmas.
H. D. Folds and hands aro still cutting
lumber at James Hartley’s. They will
goon move their saw mill outfit about one
mile and then we will get lumber closer
to us.
The farmer*, so far as I can learn will
not use very much guano this season
They will use compost mostly.
I will close, hoping that everybody
will make good crops and all be able to
pay theirjust debts. Good luck to all
for 1896. Mint ok Buck Creek

The Christmas holidays passed off
quietly. In fact so very quiet, that tor
the brilliant display of fireworks on
Christmas night, and the toys seen in
the hands of the children, there would
have been no ocular evidence of
Christmas. I did not see an intoxicated
man all Christmas.
The kind hearted mayor suspended
the town ordinance forbidding the ex-
plodiDg of lirewoiks on the streets so
far as relates to fire crackers, roman
candles and other harmless missiles, and
gave the boys permission (for a speci
fied time) to enjoy the favorite sport on
the streets, and on Christmas night they
made good use of their privilege, and
this practically closed the Christmas
festivities.
Mr. A. B. Davis, an old and prominent
citizen of this place, had the misfortune
to loose a valuable pony in a very singu
lar way a few days ago. His son
Robert had just bitched a pair of ponies
to a two horse wagon, to do some haul
ing, aDd mounted the front part of the
wagon to fix the frame, and the ponies
started, and as is the haoit of these
ponies, they moved off quite lively, and
before “Bob” could get hold of the lines
they were running at full speed. Turn
ing a sharp cunre in the road threw
them a little to one side when one of
them run square against a tree, doub
ling himself up betwsen the tree and
wagon, breaking the wagon up pretty
badly, and injuring the pony so that he
died in three or four days. Bob came
near being entangled in the wheel. He
had a very narrow escape but camo out
with a few pretty bad bruises.
It is with feelings of deep sorrow that
I chronicle the death of my much es
teemed and time honored old friend and
brother, Mr. F. A . Trussell, which oc
curred on last Sunday theSth at his home
near this place. His death was not un
expected, as he had been in failing
health for several years, with that
dreadful disease dropsy, and since the
death of his brother Mr. D. L. Trussell,
who died at his home in Carrollton a
few weeks ago, ho has bean linking
Tery fast. He attended the burial of
his brother, and was exposed to the
weather, and suffered a relapse from
which he never recovered. Of him It
may be truthfully said “A good man is
gone.”
Mr. Ben Cook of this place haa the

Being one of Ibe county’s most en
terprising little towns, we have
thought to write for IliePnEts now and
then,so that W3 may become better ac
quainted. Roopvilie !s an np to date
city. She has fn-ly alive business
houses to cope with tier aister towns;
she toasts of two as good doctors as
will be found atiywhere; she haa am
ple ginneries, saw mills, grist mills
and smithing establishments; _ she has
for eitizens the very best of people and
this is yonched-for from the fact that
she supports representative churches
and $ fane school. So educationally
and religiously Roopvilie can’t be sur
passed. With such men ms J. K. Roop,
J. L.’TeAl, I). F. Pearce, B. H. Brock,
“Doll” Almou, G. W. Roop, T. T.
Simple* and many others too tedions
to mention, we * can afford to write
as we do, because they are active men
and are treasures to any community.
We are highly gratified to note the
exceptional progress of onr High
School Prof. Pendergrast opened
last Monday with sixty five pupils,
the best for qnile a while. He is a
young man of only two years exper
ience, yet his qualifications are as those
of many years in school work and we
feel sure ef this being oar school’s
most prosperons year. As evidence
of onr assertion, we observe that some
of his pnpils are following hitn. Hur
rah for Roopvilie and her school. Mrs.
Delany Wood Almon, a teacher of
many years experience, will assist in
the school. A better selection, or
more creditable acquisition, could not
have been effected. Let every one
unite aud swell our school number to
100. The material is available and we
should certainly claim it.
Mr, G. W. Roop left for Carrollton
this morning," where he will enter bas
inets with his brother, Mr. H. O. Roop.
He is an active, energetic business man
and commanded a fine trade while
here. Roopvilie is unfortunate in
losing so esteemed a citizen and Car
rollton will not possess a more public
spirited one.
A great many changes have been
made as regards moving since the holi
days. We have acquired several good
citizens in the rounds made.
Mr, O. H. Brock nas assumed the
principalship of the Heflin, Ala.,
school. Oscar Is an accomplished
yonng man and Heflin may well be
proud to hare secured his services.
Profs. Charlie and Odf Garrett left
last week for Edwardsyiile, Ala,,
where they will resume the exercises
of Cleburne Institute. Roopvilie is
very proud of them for they are two of
its representative yonug men.
Messrs. Russel Lane, of Frauklin,
Sims Shackleford, of Enon Grove and
Landon Woods, of Corinth, came np
last Saturday to attend school. We
are proud to nave them with ns, and
they are a valuable acquisition to the
school as well as society.

FERTILIZERS.
gome Pertinent and Practical Suggestions
on Home Mixing.
The following article taken from the
Bouthem Planter and written -by Dr.
De Ghalmot, is so replete with valnablo
information that we would be glad if
every farmer in the state could read
and profit Jjy it:
“The feasibility and desirability of
home mixing of fertilizers have boon
clearly demonstrated by the station*
The published results of investigations
by stations engaged in the exanunAttoa
of fertilisers leave no doubt regarding
the fact that “from such raw materials
as are in onr markets, without the aid
milling of machinery, mixtures can be
made on the farm, which are uniform
in quality, fine and dry, and equal In
all respects to the best ready made fer
tilisers .
“The advantages to be derived from
hove mixing are so obvious that it to
hardly neCfestary to do more than enu
merate them:
“1. Reduction is Expenses. — This
ie strikingly brought out in a recent
bulletin of the New Jersey station.
Home mixed fertilisers, representing a
purchase of 540 tons, gave an average
cost per ton of JK31.3B at the point of
oonsumptipn. The average cert per
ton of elgnt special brands, seleoted as
the most highly concentrated of 212
brands examined, was $48.50, or a diff
erence of $12.14 per ton in favor of the
home mixtures, which contained at
least $2 worth of plant food In excess
of that in the manufactured brand.
