A MuIfi-IneIIon-aire.

Our old friend j. p. McKissick. the
veteran in the melon raising business, is
preparing to meet the expectations of
his friends again this year with fine
melon crop. In Il conversation Il few
days ago he said he had several
acres of ground devoted to melons, and
while his watermelons are not showing
up as well as he expected, he has very
fine prospect for good crop of cant;,-
loupes. lie has 800 hills of them nearly
AL of which are up. If Jack can't raise
them it is no use for others to try. r.
member he don't live very far from
town either, boys. Such nice place TO
spend an afternoon.

"But n they did not command China,
