 To tell what little we know is an easy task, but to commit to the care of ink and paper is always a perpleXing thought to us. We might now mention several items of interest to your readers, but how to tell them is the tronble.
 AIlis is still alive, and is all life and business, these days.
 Spring has come once more, and with is gentle sunshine the green, green grass and beautiful -, we'll We are no poet, or we might write whole columns on the beauties of the season. But, with spring. work-time has commenced in earnest, with the farmers. The continued good weather, for sever al weeks past, has been very favor able to both farmers and early veg citation, so that erop-planting and farm work generally is a week or two earlier than usual. Most of the corn crop Is planted, and some preparations for a cotton crop have been made. The corn crop seems to be larger than last year, and, possibly, a little less cotton will be planted. The few wheat crops in the neighborhood, also the large oat crops, look very promising.
 Health, that which is desirable to man, is now reasonably good in this community. But in the family of of Mir. James Mckinney, who recently moved to Allis, there is considerable sickness, at present.
 Since our last communication. our community has been shocked by the death of most estimable lady-Mrs. Ida. B. Miller. Her
