Hebron,

If this be the sunny south Ger
tainly we have been living on tn,
shady side of it several months
The energy of our farming com
munity compares with any, but We
are in arrears in consequence of the
continued bad weather. Great
fears are entertained that the wheat
crop is ruined and clover is badly
damaged. Farmers throughout
the country are expanding money
more largely for clover and blue
grass seed. 1t is strange that we
don't have increased facilities for
gathering and husking clover seed.
Home made clover seed is one kind
that do as well as northern seed.

bank started the 18th for Texas.
" are sorry to see so many Of our
citizens leaving for Texas and Ar
kansas, and are at loss to under
stand what benefits they expect to
derive by locating in those states
that with proper effort can be OBJ
tanned at home. We do not believe
any portion of Texas exceeds Giles
county in fertility of soil, salubrity
OF climate, fine educational facilities,
or in opportunities for making
money, if a man be industrious
and practices economy and thrift
even to a reasonable degree.
Il am sorry to report that Mrs.
Tucker, the mother of the very nu-
merous family of that name, is very
low with old age, suppose. She
is now in her Tooth year and her re-
cOvery is doubtful Old Mr.. Var
brOugh has been slightly indisposed
all the winter. May he soon recov-
er and be long spared to US for an
example Of uprightness. Mrs. j.
7. Eubank had = virulent invasion
of the nerves last week. Smith
Eubank has been suffering intense
ly of late with shingles but we are
glad to report, however, that he has
recovered. A Mr.. Hilliard of
Maury county, brother of our teach
er, c. B. Hilliard, is going to school
here. He is a young man of hilari-
Gus companionship and we extend
to him q hearty salutation. We
have two schools in our community,
one at Smiths Institute taught by
Rev. J. G. Phelps, the other at
Hopewell under the supervision of
G. B. billiard. Both are very pro-
gressive.
Miss Matte Matthews, a beau
tiful young lady of Alabama, is
visiting her aunt, Mrs. w. r.
Hughes, of this place. Willie Eu-
bank, our boss bird trapper, who
has been trapping for them nearly
Ell the winter, has at last succeeded
in catching one old blue jay.

"A littls child of T. H. Brown
ing was seriously burned and after
suffering foUr days Of excrucia-
ting pains, was waited on angels
wings to the realms of eternal joy
and bliss. God loved it best and !
in mercy took it before its pure little
soul was tainted by sin, before it's
heart had known a sinful thought. !
