were members of his staff.
This offering of respect touched
the hearts Of the people of Alabama.

AS far as we can see farmers here
are commencing new operations for
the year in dead earnest and seem de-

hard times, and put their shoulders to
the wheel and fight for living as
much az ever. It is true the times and
way is hard, but "they are heroes in
this Est,ife." AS far az the weather
admits they are pushing ahead with
their ploughing, and good deal is
done in places together with other
work in that line. Don't think that
near az much fertilizer will be used
as last year. The grain crop is good
generally, owing mainly to the mild
ness Of the weather, for We have had
comparatively speaking, very little
cold so far. But later on, during
February and March, we may expect
it. Our winters best has, from all ac-
