Briggs, of the firm of Briggs q CO., has
leased the convict labor of the Tennessee
penitentiary, under the late Act of the Leg
islature, for period of four years, agreeing
to pay at the rate of forty-three cents per
diem for each hand. This is five cents more
than is paid to the State of Illinois, for a
similar use Of her convict labor, the rate
there being only thirty-eight cents to the
hand while in Ohio and Indiana, the price
obtained is forty cents, or three cents less
than what Tennessee has secured.
The lessee intends soon to fit up the peni-

"a secret-most mysterious [Cinder-Heel-ah.
The friends of the young couple were all
assembled, and among them many of the
customers of the two stores. Angelica and
Thomas looked as happy and as well as could
be, and the old gentleman was, if possible,
happier than they. The wedding cake was
about to be cut, when the old man called out
for the secret

At this iuncture, Angelica (for that was
the daughters nancy contrived to bring
about an apparently accidental interview be-
tween the parties After the old man had
become, through the Intervention of the
daughter, tolerably good humored, he in
quired with great earnestness of the young
man how he had contrived to effect so much
in one year, to thus extend his business, and
draw off the customers from the older stand
The young man evaded an answer; but
inquired if he had any further objections to
his union with Angelica.
"None," replied he, provided you reveal
the secret of your success to me"
This the young man promised. when his
happiness was made complete. The old man
commended his prudence on this point The
affair was all settled, and the marriage soon
took place.

Cutting Timber.

An experienced farmer furnishes the press
with the following information; If oak,
hickory or chestnut timber is felled in the
eighth month august in the second run
ming Of the sap, and barked, quite large
tree will season perfectly, and even the twigs
will rem ain sound for years; whereas that
cut in winter, and remaining until the next
fall, las thick as your wrist,) viii be com
pIetely saprotten and will be almost unfit
for any purpose. The body of the oak split
into rails will not last more than ten or
twelve years Chestnut will last longer, but
no comparison to that cut in the eighth
month. Hickory cut in the eighth month
is not subject to be worm eaten, and viii
last long time for fencing.
When I commenced farming In 1902, it
was the practice to cut timber for post fen
cling in the winter White oak posts and
black oak rails, cut at that time found
would not last more than ten or twelve years.
In 1908, I commenced cutting fence timber
in the eighth month Many of the oak rails
cut that year are yet sound, as well as most
of those formed of chestnut. IF the bark

leave the sap perfectly sound The tops Of
the trees are also more valuable for fuel,
than when cut in winter or spring

not last twice as long, I forfeit all my ezpe-
