When money is plenty, people can af-
ford to buy goods of their friends, Just to
patronize friend. But these times, when
money is so very scarce, people will
buy of the house that gives the best
bargains. We could tell where that house
is in the Hat and Shoe line, but it wouldn. It
look well in us to say, as we haye several
friends in that business. But if you will
keep close look out, you will see a large
double house with iron columns in the
center. Plenty of clerks, all busy waiting
on customers and enough hats and shoes,
seemingly, to supply all East Tennessee,
situated between Church and Clinch on
Gay street. A hint to the wise is Sufficient.

NIGHT SESSION.


The convention was called to order by
the President, who announced that the
subject for discussion was the second topic
on the programme, ,'What shall we sow
for forage and what for hay ?" and stated
as Mr.. E. Link, of Greene county, who
was to open the discussion, was not pres
ent, he would like to hear FROM Mr.
Meek, of Jefferson county. Mr.. Meek
statsd that he had not informed himself
much on the subject and would rather
hear from some one better posted But,
however, the best way to solve the ques-
ton was by actual experience, and gave
his. He is of tho opinion that
timothy and herds grass are one and the
same grass, but the herd grass of the pres
ent day was what is called red top. His
opinion was that timothy In high land
would yield more feed or forage than any
other, while red top would yield more in
low land. Clover, he thought, should
be used only as fertilizer, for which it was
certainly the best and would yield more
forage than any other grass.
The orchard grass was the most magnifi-
cent grass of all, and for the purpose of
grazing was the best grass of any ever
used in this country, and gave his views
from actual experience for his belief. He
also gave it as his opinion that clover rails
ing would reduce the soil more than
orchard grass.
