Esq. w. o. West aud wife went
out to Texas last week to visit his
son Brice West and other friends in
Ellis co. They will be gone sever
al months.
Willie, second son of D. B.
Carrot died Thursday night. He
was thrown from a mule in July
from which he complained of hurt
on the head. 1t soon passed away,
but returned at intervals with in
creased severity; all that medical
skill could do failed to relieve him.
He was a particularly bright boy
Was loved by every body, especial
~ his school mates and was the
idol of fond father. He was about
13.
That terror to humanity-hy-
drophobia has broken out with
alarming frequently among. dogs.
There have. been a number of mad
dogs killed in this Vicinity and a
great number of dogs are believed
to be bitten. Mr.. w. j. Wilsford
had a three quarter Jersey heifer
that went mad on Saturday and he
had her killed and burnt. There
never was seen SO many stray dogs
without owners roaming over the
country. 1t is thought that many
of them belong to negroes who have
gone to Arkansas and abandoned
their dogs. w. G. Carter lost three
find sheep the past week, killed by
a lot of these stray ours. He shot
three Of them. War to extermina-
ton should be declared against all
dogs found from home by every
body.

lis. Mimi, who was at T. G.. Blu
ford's last week securing PAGERS Tor
himself and some friends, bought
a mare of Mr.. B. for $3.50. Mr..

him for $500. There are now

DIR. w. D. Pepper paid his an
nual visit to friends and relatives at
Aspen Hill this week.
Our mule men who have annu.
ally bought 8 or 10 cars of mules in
Kentucky and let out to farmers to
break and make crop with, this
year decline to buy, owing to the
depressed condition of mules south
and it is making work stock ex-
ceediDgly scarce with the small
farmer. The biggest oat crop ever
sown in is nicely put in this year.
Clover seed are so high that it will
amount to a prohibition of sowing
with many.
DIR. Geo. Dodson has opened a
dental Office and is fixing up grin
ners and grinders for the Lynnville
folks. His wife was summoned to
the bedside of her father at Kin
ston, N. c., last Monday, who was

since brought word he is much
better.

after a very severe case of maIarial
