Mr., A. J. McKimmln' spring
sale of horses and cattle will take
place at Nashville next week. These
sales have always attracted large
crowds of buyers from distance,
and better prices, as a rule, have
been received at them than at other
sales held in the state.
We found that the CITIZEN does
good service in Nashville, being
regularly read by several families
who do not pay for it Subscribe,
Mr.. Stingy. Don't swindle US and
trouble your neighbor borrowing.
When you read think how mean it
is and send us two dollars at once.

his wife set a hen on fifteen eggs
and she Matched twenty-five chick
ems.

hings go with a rush. 1t is proba-

ates a large crowd and a gay time
here this summer.
