If we g. ta good cryp of potatoes, turnips, collards, and the old h ns are faithful, while *ggs are too high too high to cook when the prea cher comes, we people are going to live bett r the next year than we have the one just past. Our cotton crop is real short, but the price looks good; and if governed by the prospect on our ;-ide. will still go higher. Since my last letter I have traveled oyer our country some. The roads are generally in very good condition except the rocks, and some places have had ruts or gulleys, The machine raked the rocks up but they have not been thrown out of the road. I found! two places near church's where ^ people had to travel over or go|'|'f v Jrom two to five miles around to * s ‘~‘ r get to church that are pi-acti- j cally impassable. These, as well as other such places, sh aid be fixed. There are some places near here that are claimed to be public roads and supposed to be kept up by the county that are in just as bad shape. Is there no help for the people who pay tax and live on these by-roads ? The children, relatives and friends of Aunt Martha Smith spent Ihr 88th anniversary with her on September 16.
