By Plow Boy.
These beautiful, balmy days,
after such dreary ones, make a
fellow feel like doing something
for himself or somebody else. We
have ventured to ‘ ‘garden’ ’ any
way; it is a pleasure that we
couldn’t put off any longer. Like
Bill Arp,I like very much to work
in the garden.
As yet, no corn has been plant
ed in this vicinity, but probably
will this week. From what I can
gather, a large acreage will be de
voted to corn this season, and the
preparation of the land so far has
Deen above an average.
The recent heavy rains have
hindered farm work, but political
work dosen’t know it ever rained.
It is an ill wind that blows no

—The “Literary Signal” is the
name of a school paper edited by
the Literary Society of Grady In
stitute of Fort Valley. The fol
lowing item from the “Signal” is
clipped from the Leader;
“Already one literary society
has been organized and we hope
to have another soon. Some of
us have resolved to have debates
and recitations about twice per
month, and to give our teachers
and fellow-pupils extempore
speeches on subjects with which
we are familiar, We are only

erty, the same being a part of tuC estate
of his wards, to-wit; Lot of laud No. 91,
containing 202^ acres, more or less, in
the TSfth district of said county, said
land bounded on the north by land of Z.
B. Means, east by land of J. H. Wimber
ly, west by land of Wm. Means, south
bypublio road from Elko to Hawkins-
ville, Ga. 8rd. Said land pays bnt little
income, owing to the fact that it is very
poor and broken, the buildings are al
most entirely useless on account it de

necessary repairs than said premises
would rent for,, and that tbo rents of
said land were only $50 annually for the
