Hon. W. A. Garuthers is at
home busy seeding his land to grass
and clover. Instead of taking a
frolic on a junketing tour to the
Inauguration, he preferred to come
home and attend to his farming in =,
terest. He is a model farmer and
always makes it pay, but he does it
by attention TO grain and grass
and by raising fine stock.

Mr.. A. j. Coates in passing
the store of Jones Bros. Sunday
morning discovered the back door
open. After shaking the front door
and finding il locked, he went in
search OF some one conn ected with
the store to find out the cause.
On returning, an examination Of
the house was made, and three or
four dollars in silver was found to
be gone from the cash drawer.

broken into, Saturday night and
robbed.
There is nothing more disa-
greeable or dangerous to the health
of ladies than to work worn our
sewing machines. It is a pleasure
to sew on a machine which runs
easily and performs work quickly
with very little LABOR. Barrett
Bros, of Bolivar have a we'll assOrt~
ed stock of light running machines,
which they are Offering extremely
low: Go and examine their stock
if you have any idea of purchasing,
and if the machine which you now
have has become hard to work and
is tiresome and unpleasant, it is a
duty you owe to your wife to make
her present of new one. 1t
The remains of Major Henry
.Faw were brought last Wedn esday
from the grave yard at the poor
house and reinterred at the old
family residence near Dunlap
Springs beside the graves of his
daughters in neatly enclosed lot.
1t was the request of Major Faw
that this be done, and a few kind
friends made up a purse for that
purpose. Major Faw was a noted
man in the community. Coming
from North Carolina at an early
day, he lived for half a century
within a few hundred yards Of
Dunlap Springs, Overtaken by
poverty in his old age, and sulviv-
ing all his relatives who were able
to care for him, he was sent to the
poorhouse, where he died in hi;
Goth year. Harmless, honest, al
Nays cheerful and kind hearted
he died as he had lived, without al
enemy in the world. Peace to his
ashes.
Col. S, H. Clinton is one of our
| advanced farmers. He owns &
large tract Of bottom land which by
skiIlfuI management he makes ex
coedIngly profitable. BY judiclou
seeding to herdsgrass he has raise,
immense crops of the finest ha,
which he bales at home and sell
on this market. We no lOnge
look to Yankeedom for grass ant
hay. We can and do raise a bette
quality Of hay than our northern
neighbors, and all that is needed /
a little common sense and the us
of improved machinery. Col
Clinton with his hay press can pu
up easily one hundred and fit
bales per day. His hay command
the best price and justly so. Ifyo
want TO know how to make farm
ing profitable in Hardeman count
Just 90 to his farm and see for you
self, With his practical knowledg
E and improved machinery he is coir
. ing money, and at the same tim
0 be is improving his land ever
= year. We cannot too strenuousl
y urge our farmers to try the ne
