Having Just retained from a
prospecting tour through several
.ourties iii southea*t Missouri, J
concluded 70 offer a few thoughts
for the consideration Of your
readers, and the farmers among
them, especially.
am not very favorably i'm
pressed with your county for agri-
cultural purposes, in consequence
Of Il hilly, rocky surface, but l
was impressed with its advantages
AS fruit country. Ii is really a
better fruit country than that sur
rounding this place. The hilly,
rocky, portions of. New York
and other northern states are the
parts largely used in fruit growing.
Permit me to say in candor,
that the time. is coming when
vonr cities will be q great fruit
and vegetable growing center,
with population beyond the most
saguine expectations of your
people now.
The question IS: How long will
your people remain passave and
Indifferent when q united effort
could accomplish so much? A little
active interest would induce out
siders to come in and assist a sys-
TEN of. iruit farming that will
effect rotation of crops, yielding
rapid returns throughout the sum-
mer, insuring fHsh and prosperous
business the year around.
Several persons here intend to
90 nlswhere to engage in fruit
growing. They are seeking a
place where land is cheaper, l
shall advise them to go to Bollinger
county, for it is the, best adapted
to fruit growing and gardening
/ have seen. The considerations
that form this resolution in my
mind are .adaptibility of soil,
chaapness Of land, and shipping
facilities. mean the country in
Tie vicinity of rutesville and

there. Poor Nan was not permitted to
accompany the remains oi him she loved
SO well To their last, long resting place.
After the great door Of the family vault
had been closed, Doctor Remington,
whose invaluable services had so light

household during It's late gloomy hours,
experienced mo- difficulty in securing the

proper custodian, according TO agree

concluded, 81 came into the room az
Mr.. Wescott fell from Mnrsden's hands"
The testimony completed, the jury re-
tired and in few moments returned u
verdict, fastening the responsibility oi
the death oi Edward 4. Wcscott upon
one John Mars,lcn Lnyton's deadly
conspiracy was progressing.
Tie jury Dispersed and soon the I'M
dertnkers arrived TO prepare the remains
for intermcnt They were about to hd-
minister the cmbalming oils when
Remington, the young physician, entered
the room.
'It il the wish oI the family" he ex-
planned briefly, 'thnt the body he not
embnlmed."
"Are youcrazy, mani exclaimed the
director Of the operation, whose buzznrd
desire To glut his purse upon the dead
exceeded better sense oi propriety.
"Do you expect to bury him today?
"Thnt il not your affair."" the doctor
returned, curtly. "You have been IN
structed Prepare the rcmains Tor The
casket without the application oi the
preservativcs.
These directions were reluctantly iol-
lowed and the remains were soon depos-
tied in the rich, sombre caskct.
During the two days that followed
there was one person who stole frequent
visits To that silent repository Tor pur-
noses other than that Of paying rever-
ence to the dead or the fcasting oil a
morbid curiosity. Tint person was

study OF these symptoms, allowed To de-
yelop by all natural means, that he as-
sumetkthe authority oi forbidding the
process oi cmbalming TO proceedY Was
IL for this reason, he stole into the dcnth-
chamber and cut large air-hole IN the
lid 81 the caskct, leaving only the cloth
coyerinp intact TO conceal it2 We shall

cunning meshes Of conspiracy, insisted
by the law, were rapidly fastening to
him. as n newborn babe Scientific in

dumb lips could not tell. Remington
watched patiently during those two
days, imagining encouragement ut times
but still that timidity, naturally Mt
