Your humble correspondent has been

We know of very little sickness in
West Pike at present. and the people
here are hustling and taking advantage
of the beautiful spring weather prepar

It seems like the f armers here have
not gone wild over 15 cents cotton, but j
are going to try to raise their own hog
and hominy at home. There is too
much risk on an all cotton crop, on ac
count of the scarcity of labor, and the
farmers cannot afford to take the risk.
They have decided to raise their own
supplies and all the cotton they can.
Good decision, brother farmers, be
