A writer in ward six, who signs
the nom de plume of 'Butch,"
sends us word that health is good,
except a few cases of measles;
crops good, but somewhat in the
grass; people progressive in TAX
ing in more new lands and putting
the old in better cultivation; corn
crop of last year was big, and
enough on hand to last through
the summer, but this year will be
larger still; country settling up rap
idly: at ether Johnson's or Phil
lips saw mill one can get anything
from rough edge to the finest
matched flooring and ceiling; good
schools, good churches and good
people. All of which is very good,
but as Butch" failed to send his
real name, which we always re-
quire, we have butchered his com.
munication as above.

The ''first watermelon of the sea-
son" materialised in beautiful
shape on last Saturday, 9th instant,
when Mr.. J. b. Wilmut broughtus
in a fine ripe melon about as big
as a water. bucket. He said it was
his fifth melon for this season, the
first having been pulled and eaten
June 9th. This takes the cake for
early melons, being about ten days
earlier than we have ever known
them to ripen in Grant parish.

Editor Colfax Chronicle:

AA<A<.s >>>>~
Editor Colax Chronicle:
Seeing letter in the last Issue of
your paper from c. K. Nugent, asking
if Grant can come up with VIM and
show open cotton, or claim to have it,
I wish to reply. Now, Mr.. Nugent, you
know what the good book tells us, and
we don't propose to claim that we have
open cotton nor would our friend
Charley, if he had not gone blind and
mistook a bloom for the cotton. We
can boast of blooms down here, and
good. crops, but can go no further on
cotton. We can also boast OF fine fish,
ing, and l wager we can knock the
bottom out of our friend for fishing
grounds. So. friend Charley, como
again, as we like to hear from you and
your parish; but 1t is impossible for
you to compare Winn to Grant, as
Grant is a century ahead. bid you
bye-bye and so-long, sweet Charles.
Your friend, KENO.
