th< farmers, they have but very little

The farmers in this neighborhood,
started out this year to make some
thing. So far, they get to work
earlier, work Inter, plow deeper and
have made more manure at home this
I year t an they have in any two since
the war. Ami instead of thinking
alioiit what they need and must have. .
They think what can we do without.
Hope we will hold to that resolution
for a year or two, then we will e in- !
dependent of the commission mer
' chants and have money to loan.
Farming is the backlione of the world,
still the farmers are the most depen
i dent class of people in it. Why so?
Because they have to pay the mer

1 aixty per cent and take whatever they

Mr. John Pearre, one of Columbia's

he was hiking sad, not about his

Louis W illiamson also Ims been
i coming to mill on the Sabbath for
■ two and a half years and oeciisiomdly
twice a week. He has hitched his
horse Charlie, to n certain pine so
: long and often that he has gnawed
I all the bark oil of it mid stumped all
I the dirt off the roots. On one occa-
I sion some gentleman hitched his
h use to Charlie's pine and Louis had
to hitch him to the ruck between
J I e’s and /.b s horses; during the
night Charlie got hungry and as he
could not reach the pine he pulled
Ike’s saddle blanket, which was a corn
suck split open at ouch end, from un-
I der the saddle and got his head, eyes

third, its mineral water; sou th, its
