Will it be the Florida plan, or the
South Carolina plan, or will our board
abide by its old record? The South
Carolina plan is to take snap judgment,
the Florida plan to canvass no returns at
all but let the Governor appoint the cleo

well, it is the dirtiest of all. 1t
means classifying returns, changing fig

Farmers are nearly done gather

A large amount of wheat is being
sown.
The cholera has visited this part

Many rorkers are finding their way

We have three Churches in this
neighborhood one Christian, or
Campbel!ite, two Methodist, respec-
lively Cool Spring, Chestnut Grove
and Cedar Grove. Preaching at
the latter two alternately by the
Rev. F. F, Pagan.
We have no school going on at
present. Profs. Scales and May and
Miss Bette Maultsby's were out a
short time since.
This vicinity is like all other por-
tions Of the county. Some land
holders and some renters and crop
pers. The customary price here
for labor is, the renter pays one
third Of the corn and one fourth Of
the cotton. The cropper gives half
what he makes on the farm. The
land-holders here are not as hard
on tenants as they are over the
way. I was told a few days ago
that the land holder was not salts
fed with getting one-third of the
corn and one fourth of the cotton,
but actually wanted part of the
children that had been raised on
the farm. L. n.

a r,ch treat to that people, and was
the subject Of favorable comment.
Mr.. j. w. Chapman, a model

the inclemency of the weather quite
Il large crowd collected TO witness
the ceremony. a fine dinner was
served up, and one fellow being too
timid to eat much at the table put a
turkeys neck IN his pocket for flu

ness in their matrimonial relations.
If this thing Of marrying continues
much longer in the neighborhood
there will be but few of US left, and
they will be bachelors, and Cupid

Many of our readers viii be glad

Texas and near LadOnia, ia Fannan
county / live near the line be-
tween the two counties; conse
quently Ladonia will be nv post
office. l therefore want you to
send me the CITIZEN to that place.
l must have it-can't do without it.
Ny subscription will be out some
time next spring and when that
time comes ] will try and send you
money to renew. I am we'll pleased
with this portion OF Texas. Think
it much better country to make a
living in than old Tennessee, espe-
cially one that has small means to
begin with, Land is much cheaper
and [ think better. There are three
classes of land here: the black
sticky, the gray or medium, and the
black-sandy. The latter is the most
sought for ana is the most settled.
The black sticky is evidently the
richest of the three classes, but very
disagreeable to cultivate, and not
so good for fruit and vegetables. I
see fine, thrifty young orchards on
the sandy lands that promise equal
to any in Giles or anywhere else,
but not so in the sticky land. 1
have rented a place of 70 acres in
the sandy land with a fine young
orchard of as thrifty looking trees
as ever saw anywhere. I bought
corn at 80 cents. Pork is worth
from 81 to 54 cents. Corn is in
abundance. Many farmers have
enough to do them two years, but
pork is not so plenty. 1 am anx-
ious to get the CITIZEN; so send it
along. MARTIN Fry.
