farm work.
Mr. J. A. Arnold is still in the
rank, but he has a partner now. He
and Mr. L. T. Doles are the first to
plant cotton in this section, and Mr.
J. W. Bartlett says he is going to

mers, and show these men that you
can have cotton blossoms by the
time they do.

The debate Friday afternoon be
tween our school boys on the sub

the affirmative. We hope to hear
them again.

Elko News.
The teachers and pupils of the
Elko public school, with members of
their families and friends, enjoyed
their annual picnic last Friday at the
fish pond belonging to Mr. W. E.
Means. The occasion afforded much
pleasure to all, but the children es
pecially were in high glee.
The infant daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Shinholster died last Wednes

the entire community is with the
bdreaved parents.
Little Margaret, the 2-year old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. S.
Murrow,died last Friday night. The
bereaved family have the heartfelt
sympathy of their many friends.
Despite the recent heavy rains, the
road between Elko and Perry is in
fair condition.
Though much hindered by unpro-
pitious weather, our farmers are fair
ly up with their work.
It is earnestly hoped that the full
moon period will not bring freezing
weather. x * z *
Southern farmers need not spe
cifically curtail the acreage devoted
to cotton in order to keep that crop
y within profitable bounds. All that
is necessary to be done is to plant
liberally for plentiful food and prov-
endar crops. .
A number of saloon keepers in Sa
vannah were indicted last week for
keeping their places of business

the law.

Uneasy lies the head that has
a fruit farm.
Jiist now the full moon in April
promises to play havoc with the
fruit.
If not the heaviest, the most
damaging rain of the season fell
here last Saturday evening. Land
was badly washed and much corn
and cotton that had just been
planted was so badly sanded that
fears are entertained that a very
imperfect stand will be the result.
This is one of the years when
the early bird will not only catch
the worm, but—
Small pox still spreads at Den
nard, and under the present man
agement it will continue to do so
as long as there is a negro to car
ry it. The school at Union Acad
emy came very near being stam
peded last week, a case having
broken out in a negro cabin near
the school. The patrons met and
decided to apply to the Ordinary
for a guard, which was sent at
once, and school was resumed.
Rev. J. T. Mimms filled his ap
pointment at Andrew Chapel last
Sunday. He is well liked by the
people of the community.
—From Monday morning to
Wednesday afternoon when the
Home Journal was put to press,
the weather has been cold enough
to cause apprehension concerning
the safety of the fruit crop. This
weather was expected with the eas-
ter full moon (Wednesday) and
the suspense may not be relieved
until Friday or Saturday.
