afternoon Two small boys at Will
sonburg, Arthur Floyd and Ben
Miller, made the CHASTITY find on
Simpsons fork Of Limestone a short
distance above Thomas I. Payne's
residence. The body was lying on a
little knoll under tree about one
hundred yards from the road. The
flesh had been eaten from both feet,
one hand and his face badly. The
state of decomposition was not bad,
considering the fact that he had
been dead two months.

brother Jake strayed away from the
poor house and was found frozen to
death at Reynoldsville Friday, Feb
3, Jake's body was inferred at the
poor house graveyard Jim attend

his dinner and was never seen alive
afterwards. He wandered away in
the blizzard which was not only the
coolest Of this winter but the sever
est IN all history.

male degenerates in the poor house

were born and reared near Meadow

father moved to Halls Run, this
county, where he died and left the

Mixing II Clear.

Somebody has discovered that a
Bermuda onion eaten raw will clear
the head. A Bermuda onion eaten
raw will do more than that. 1t will
clear an entire room. An active Ber-
muda onion is a complete clearing
house all by itself. Take one Bermu-
da onion-only one-and let the lips
Of beauty close upon it and love will
turn to hatred and honey to gall and
bitterness Clear the head? Why, a
Bermuda onion in fairly good health
will clear the head Of navigation.

FALL ELECTIONS.

Der election this year will fall on
the 9TH Of the month. Elections
will occur in eleven states. In six,
governors will be chozeu-Missis.
sippi, Massachusetts,, Kentucky,
Iowa, Ohio and Maryland.
Mississippi will elect democrat
and Massachusetts a republican.
The result in Iowa is expected to
favor the republicans, but the size
OF the majority is an interesting
matter for conjecture, as the prac-
tic has long been among political
statisticians to consider il an index
Of the drift of public opinion in
the Middle West. However, as lie
population is largely farming one,
and as trust depredaiions have
been severely felt by that class,
the party that has been nurturing
trusts so palpably since it came in
to power is liable to a severe rebuke.
Iowa has twice given a democratic
majority in recent years.
As to the three other states.
there is scant doubt that the dem
ocrats will carry Kentucky, as two
ears ago it was carried by Nc.

but early next spring when feed
for work stock will be very scarce,
il will prove OF the greatest posi-
BILE value. Plant on moist land at
the rate Of 20 or % pounds Of seed
per acre; seed usually costs 10 to

There is abundant time TO Sc.

REPLANTING FLOOD LANDS.

July u, 1899.
To THE EDIToR:-
The water will soon recede from
the many square miles of flood
land in the Brazos and other river
valleys Of this state, and the
planters are at once confronted
with the question: What Can |
do with these Lands, this Tenant
Labor, and this Work Stock p"
At the request Of a number of
Brazos valley planters, who have
nave suffered seriously from the
flood, | make few brief sugges.
tons through the papers Of the
State, basing the statements made
on experiments conducted by the
Texas Stations Cat this place and
at other points in Texas) and hope
that some Of the suggestions may
prove of value, by indicating the
lines Of work that may now be
safely attempted.
In considering the matter of
pitching crops, the farmer must
provide, % fol laborers, (2) for
work stock, 3) for sales crops,
and ! will therefore discuss the
planting question from these
standpoints.
