Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 2t.-Dis-
patches up to 9p. m. indicate that last
nights storm which swept over North
ern Mississippi and Central and West
ern Tennessee was one of great severi-
ty. Advices by the Associated Press

that the loss of life in the territory yis-
tied by the tornado already amounts to
tifty-one, and the number injured to be
over seventy-fve. Telegraphic com
munication to the region visited by the

'In reply to the correspondent of

gardard to free delivery in my last n

truth, for vast majority of the peop 9
are opposed to ii, and l will further
say that we in Washington county Rl-
preciate accommodations, especially y
when our congressman does it for our
benefit. Now it is said they will dc
liver the mail at every mans door, but
the way they are making the arrangc-
ments it is not the case here at Bow :
mantown. We will be day behind
getting our mail; with the star route
we get cur mail from the railroad In
the evening, with the free deliver
system this mail has to lay till next
morning, therefore we will be one day
late and it Will be that way in different

both democrats and republicans. ]

wife left their three little children at
home while they went to the field few
few hundred yards distant to dosome

about two, four and six years. While
they were absent some way the cloth

and she started to run in the direction
of her parents, but was overcome and
fell and was burned to death. 1t is
stated that the fire from her dress ig-
nited the grass around where she fell.
The two smaller children ran on tc
their parents and informed them oi
what had happened and on returning

dead. She is reported to have been 8
very bright little girl and the whole
neighborhood was shocked by the acci

STORM IN TENNESSEE.
Tornado Was Most Destructive Ever Known
In That State.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 9l.-Tennes-
see was swept early last night by the
most destructive storm ever known in
the state. More than fifty people were
killed and hundred more injured,
while the damage to houses, timber
and other property will reach figures
The storm entered the state from
Northern Mississippi, and swept across
in a northeasterly direction. Great
damage is reported from the counties
bordering on Mississippi and further
on. Columbia, in Maury county, is
the heaviest sufferer. Lavergne, No
lensville and Gallatin also felt the
winds fury, the storm finally losing its
force against the Cumberland noun

short course in agriculture this winter
The course will comprise lectures on
the anatomy and phisology of the do
mesticated animals and the treatment
of the more common diseases. Two
afternoons a week will be devoted to
the practical demonstration of the theo-
Ietical work provided in the classroom.
Students will receive instruction con-
cerning Judging and shoeing horses,
veterinary hygiene, dressing wounds,
removing ulcers, bandaging sprains,
poulticing, throwing and restraining

The Path of the Storm.

The path of the storm is about $50
yards wide and was through the north
western suburbs of the town. In it's
path everything is completely wrecked :.
Not even the iron and stone fences of
the arsenal grounds are standing.
The houses of Capt. Hydelott, the
Farells and other large residences were
demolished.
With the exception of these four
houses, the storms path was through a
section of the town populated chiefly
by negroes and the poorer classes, and
the houses were mere novels. It is es-
tlmated that 15O of them we're totally
destroyed and large number damaged.
The suffering of these people, rendered
homeless and bereft of all their goods,
is pitiable.

Horticulture in School

The most notable departure from the
old-time ironclad rule of the three RS
-'reading, 'riting and 'rithmetic"-
is the introduction OF primary lessons
on fruit growing and gardening in the
country schools. The movement had
its origin in the extension of nature
study and has taken deepest hold in
New York state, through Missouri
teachers have enthusiastically adopted
1t. Every country teacher has felt the
need of some form of general exercise
in which the entire school could partic-
ipate. The time-honored spelling
down" is one solution of this need
Arithmetic matches, news of the week,
stories from home reading-these and
many similar exercises have been in.
vented to interest all the scholars; but
in every one there is the difficulty that
the primary classes can not do the
work.
Let the country teachers try garden
ing, A box of sand and few seeds
will tell oil the children, old and young
new things of the beginnings of plant
growth and the effects of too much or
too little water upon the sprouting
seed, A peach twiw can teach the diff
ference between leaf and fruit buds to
the smallest child in school, and it can
teach the teacher the basis of good
pruning for that fruit. A comparison
of the fruiting wood of apple and OF
peach has in it good lesson, interest,
ing and useful. The dissection OF a
well grown strawberry plant will show
show fruit bulbs already formed, ready
for next years crop. How mary pupils,
even IN the advanced classes, have seen
for themselves how the young squash
plant beaks from its seeds.
These are matters of greater interest
and value to the country boy and girl
