Important to Farmers.

Realizing the fact that our farmer
friends stand In need of a greater
amount Of agricultural information
than we are enabled to give them in
the DEMOCRAT. we have perfected ar
rangements whereby we can give to
every subscriber to our paper who pays
Is cents In addition to the regular sub
scription price, The AMERICAN FARMER,
q sixteen-page Agricultural Magazine,
published by e. A. X. Hackett, at Fort
Wayne, Indiana, and which Is rapidly
taking rank as one Of the leading Agri-
cultural publications of the country.
1t is devoted exclusively to the inter-
ests of the Farmer, Stock Breeder, Dali
ryman, Gardener, and their household,
and every species of industry connect
ed with that great portion of the people
of the world, the Farmers. The sub
scription price is One Dollar per
Year. Farmers can not we'll get along
without it. It puts new ideas into their
minds. 1t teaches them how to farm
with profit to themselves. 1t makes
the home happy, the young folks cheer
full, the growler contented, the down.
cast happy, and the demagogue honest.
Thus you will get first-class agri-
cultural magazine and your county
paper for the small sum OF slips.
Hand in your names at once while
the offer holds good.

Agricultural Bookkeeping.

Mr.. Perry Renfrow hands us the
following as the result OF his farm
ing operations for 1884:
Four acres in oats; labor days
blowing, 2 days harvesting. Result,
265 dozen bundles.
-Four acres In cotton; labor--25
days blowing, l6 days hoeing; result,
Ill2 pounds lint cotton, bringing an
average Of &c, $l00.08.
Six acres in corn; labor--25 days
blowing, 6 days hoeing; result, 420
bushels.
One-half acre sweet potatoes: la
Dor, 4 days; result, $50 bushels.
One acre in millet; labor, days;
result, about 2500 pounds Of bay.
The advantage that Mr. Rent ON
possesses over great many farmers
consists IN the keeping OF accounts
so that he knows the cost Of prnduc-
ton OF the several crops named. and
enables him to tell with a certainty
the net value of the same.
Let other farmers in Pope county
try the experiment another year,
and announce results through the
DEMOCRAT.

A Horrible Death.

A sad and distressing accident re-
sultlng in the death of young man
named Robinson. Is years old. oc-
Cured at Smiths mill, this place,
last Monday morning about Z o'clock.
Young Robinson and his brother
were engaged in grinding an axe on
a.stone run by belt from the main
shaft, and having finished, IN at
tempting to throw the belt, the un-
fortunate young mans arm was
caught up by a rapidly revolving
shaft, and being unable to extricate
himself, was whirIed around with
each revolution of the shaft, strik-
ing against floor and wall with such
force as TO break almost every bone
in his body. The terrible work was
done in few seconds, and it wss
impossible to stop the mill in ti,ne
to avert the calamity. The brothcr
OF the deceased was badly wounde',
in the face and chest while attempt

perilous position. 1t is thought h,
Was struck by the rapidly revoivlag
body, but he was so excited that he
is not positive on this point. AT
any rate he received terrible blows
OIL the arms aud chest and his front
teeth were knocked out. He is cen
fined at home and suffering very
much.
Tie Robinson family recently az
rived here from Alabama, and u
though among strangers, symratiiri
ic friends rose up to assist and com
fort them in their misfortune.
Mr.. Smith, the proprietor OF the
mill, Is deeply affected by the acci
dent, but OF course is in no wise to
blame.

DIR. j. H. Potts, of Atkins, is con-
valescent, and 1t gives the DEMOCRAT a
great deal of pleasure to note the fact.
Fresh attractions for close buy
ers are offered daily at j. L. Shinn's.
This is glorious Democratic wealth
err. and the beauty of it is it is enjoyed
alike by Democrat, Republican, and
that rare political anomoly, the Green
hacker. Let all rejoice.
Ivory Patent Flour at Shinn's
is unquestionably the finest brand
ever offered in this market.
sheriff John w. Quinn and his ef-
ficent assistant, NJ. ii. Baird, ESQ.,,
waited upon the taxpayers at this pre-
clint last week. The turnout was mea-
gre. The collectors are at Atkins to-
day.

dence. on Main Street, two lots, good

Last Saturday we were presented
by Mr.. Everett Morton with the finest
specimen OF sweet potato we have seen
in many day. 1t measured 20 inches
| in circumference and weighed seven
pounds. Mr.. M. takes the ribbon, so
far as heard from.
The continual rush and hurry Of
business which is observed every
day a: j l.. Shinn's is explained by
the very low prices at which he is
selling.
The DEMOCRAT tow line has been
snapped like brittle thread by the ad-
yocates of christmas trees. Every
church in town, we believe, has decid-
oil to have christmas tree. Well, we
hope everybody will be happy, and
amid the enjoyment the DEMOCRAT will
be happy too.
You miss it badly if you don't
go TO j. L. Shlnn's when you want
ready made clothing.
AS an evidence of the productive
ness Of Pope county upland soil, under
good management and favorable con-
ditions, it may be stated that Mr.. L. b.
Stewart, living few miles east Of Rus
sellville, gathered from acres OF
ground 5l60 pounds of seed cotton.
This would be considered good results
from bottom land.
When j. L. Shinn put his cheap
prices in this paper 3 weeks ago
people could not realize that goods
could be sold so low, but, now,
thousands can testify to the truth
fitness of the figures, and it is given
up that Shlnn's is the Boss Cheap
Store.
Pope county convicts will hercaf-
ter work out their fines and cost in the
Ouita coal mines, q contract to that ef-
feet having been entered into by the
mining company aud the Pope county
officials. This may save some expense
to the county, but involves principle
to which the Democrat is unalterably
opposed, namely, the working of con-
victs in competition with honest labor.
This is not intended MS criticism Of
our officials, for they have but carried
out the provisions Of existing law. 1t
is the law We object to, and we believe
the statute allowing the working of
county or state conyicts outside OF pris-
on walls, should be repealed.
Don't you forget to remember
that Sewing Machines are cheaper
at j. l.. Shinn's than anywhere else
In America.
