out Of the Southwestern part Of
Hickman county. and named in
honor of Robert Fulton. 1t is

by Hickman county, and South by
thefIennessee state line. It con
tains lS4 square miles, Is the last
county west, and IS literally cut In
two by the Mississippi river-so
that in going from the main or east
ern part of the county to the vest
ern ltamiliariy known as Madrid

about s miles of Tennessee terrific
ry. The county is divided between
Mississippi bottoms, subject for %
miles to inundation, and uplands;
lies well, has no mountains, and but
a small portion Of hill country; soil
generally good, a part very produc-
tive; timber good-the finest oak,
walnut, poplar and cypress; princi-
pal productions-corn. wheat. to-
bacce, stoc',-Taising aud lumber; the
streams-Iittlc Obion river, BAYOU
du Chen, Mud, Rush and Dixon
creeks.

of sixteen farmers in that immediate
vicinity. (purposely leaving out all
who inherited any property from any
source.) each of whom are worth from
$4,000 to $500. 900. and each COM
menced by working out for very low
wages. Some of them began by split
ting rails and cutting wood ut twenty
five cents a cord. The object is to
show that after money has been earn
ed. and saved TO purchase few acres
of land. an industrious man can raise
money enough to support himself and
family, and each year add to his pro-
ducing capacity until he finally secures
a competence; and that agriculture
has seldom failed TO repay him who
fairly and honestly devoted himself to
