ROBINSON 1rEMs.-Wc have a lady
in our District, 81 years of age, who
has just cut wisdom tooth.
The roads are worse than usual
If we have any Surveyors, l don't
know it, especially from School
House No. 7, to the Presbyterian
Church, and from Col. Stewards to
Tippe:t's store.
James L, Knight sold two steers
last week, weighing combined, 4,lOO
lbs, for which he got s cts. per b.
Such cattle will pay to feed. He got
over 5000 for them.
Q There has been over 300 head Of
cattle, in this neighborhood, sold to
butchers alone, besides u large num-
Der sold to shippers, and TO men to
feed, such as two year olds, and some
calves.
That dreadful disease, pink-eye,
has made its appearance in this dis
trict, on the farm Of Squire Van
Matre. A gentleman from Middle
port come to his house on visit, or
on business, and had an afflicted
horse, from this the contagion was
the consequence. CARP.
Prof. W. J. Kenny, County Super.
intendent of Free Schools, started out
sona visit to the schools, Monday.
but owing 10 the bad and impossible
condition Of the roads, he had to re.
turn, and abandon the contemplated
visit for the present. Itseems to US
that wealthy and populous county
like Mason should take some steps
towards having good roads. The
plan Of making and keeping in re.
pair county roads by "unpaid labor
has been tried ever since the county
was organized, and it has been fail
ure, and the roads are no better now,
than when they were first construct
cd. It is time that some other plan
of constructing roads was adopted.
We understand q petition is to be
presented to the county court at its
next meeting, praying for the sub
mission to the voters the "Alternato''
road system. If this law is adopted
by the county, we may possibly get
good roads after awhile.

To the officers and members Of
Bardeaan Lodge Ne. 420 Fres and
Accepted Masons, your resolutions
in regard 10 the Geath OF our beloved
Brother, J. B. Young, beg leave to
submit ths following as their re
port:
Whereas, The Supreme Architect
of the Universe has seen fit ia his
all-wise providence to remove from
our midst our brother, J. B: Young
and while We do not question the
wisdom Of his decree, it is but nat
ural foE Us to indulge in those feel
ings of grief and sadness With which
the irreparable loss of our beloved
brother has impressed us and to de-
sire to extend to his stricken fam
i.Y the consolation of heart felt con-
dolsnce.
Therefore, be it Resolved,
1st, that in the death of eur
beloved Brother that the Lodge Of
which he was q member. has lost
q devoted Brother, and the fratern-
ity an ardent co-Eorker.
2nd, The Society in which ne
moved, has lost IN ornament, the
county a worthy citizen, and the
church 10 which he belonged a
devoted member.
3rd, Be it especially resolved
that bis wife has lost a devoted
and loving husband, his children n
kind aad indulgent father. And exer-
cising faith in God and the i'm
mortality of the soul, we trust
that our irreparable less is his eter-
nal gain in Heaven.
4th. That We wear the usual badge
of mourning for thirty days, and that
copy Of these resolutions be pre-
scented to his family, copy published

ER- EDEroE-I would Ike te
hear soEse testimony from sOme OF
youT readers who are experienced
and practical fruit raisers to c0rrob-
crate ay testimony in regard 70 the
great worth and value Of fruit to the
human family, and also for stock, es-
pscially for hogs, There is money in
raising frat, even for hogs, as it Is <
great saving Of labor, instead of Tas-
ing corn to feed them on entirely FOR
about Eve months during the huit
season, I have known hogs to be
kept on frat alone, entirely for about
four o. FIVE months, and we're in cx-
eellent order at thu END Of that time.
Ia time of & severe drouth = good and
large orchard is Of great value toward
sustaining hogs, if they have access
to the fruit. There are thousands of
old kelds and cid hill-sidcs in West
Tennessee that would be highly val
liable If they were turned into orchards
for the benefit of people and hogs,
When my father was county Sur-
veyor in this county, he seeded the
seed Of good and. luscious peaches while
Surveying, aud thereby acquired 4
variety Of good fruit. The fruit has
been highly appreciated by many.
Old hill sides could be reclaimed and
made valuable if they were thickly
planted with PLAN trees. Hogs could
be made fat, and proof against cholera,
and also the soil would be retained
hy the roots. She farmers should re-
feet and consider awhile. and con-
Glade to raise more provisions, and
raising fruit would be one good move
toward th&t object. Early fruit is in
great demand IL the Northern States.
l. i easily scised here, AID it is
strange that farmers haze r"n ram
pant in raising cotton to bug north
ern provisions With. would Ike to
hear the testiraonY 81 some practical
and experienced fruit-growers ia this
