Well, wc had one of tho hijr^est rains
of * his season Saturday night. Tho rain
was necompaniod by a high wind. Con
siderable damage wus done to the land
and roads throughout this section.
Tho grain crops in this section arc
looking (Inc for the time of the year.
Mrs. Leila Kierbow and duaghter
from near How-don Junction, visitci
Mrs. M. E. Key Friday evening.
Wo notice, according to tho newspa
pers of the county, that a geurtcr effort
will be mnde the coming season than
ever before to control the boll weevil,
and now'at this early date there ap
pears a cloud on the horizon—the scar
city of calcium arsenate—the only rem
edy discovered that is any ways effec
tive against the post; and then there
is another reason that will keep man-;
from using tho poison—that of a con
stantly advancing price—a price that
will bo prohibitive to many. It seems
to us, if wo were taking a random
guess, that tliej-e is a corner somewhere
As we look at this situation, and the
way tho price of food has risen in our
principal cities, and then think of the
conditions that obtained among th«
producers of the country when many of
them did not get cost for their products
—some of them letting their crops rot
in tho field—there seems to bo some
thing rotten “what ain’t in Den
mark. ’ ’
Mr. J. II. Johnson, who has been vis
iting his family hero for some time,
has Teturnod to Birmingham, Ala.

Mr. Alex Turner made a business trip
to Bremen Monday morning.
^ To our mind, oho of tho most inter
esting part of tho news of our county
papers is the news by the different cor
respondents of the county—that is
when they send real nows or items of
general interest—and not mere gossip
tor by these news letters wo can tell
what, our relatives and friends are do
ing, though we may bo far from borne.
