An exchange asks: "What is a
dollar, anyhow" The question is
an easy one to answer. A dollar
is what some men promise to pay
for their county paper. tits some
thing newspaper man enjoys more
in anticipation than in reality. 1t
is the price of a days work for
some men and a single nights
drunk for others. 1t is what the
wife frequently needs, but seldom
has. 1t is a blessing in a small
measure and curse in many in
stances. It is mighty and scarce
No man ever had more than he
wanted and no man ever will. A

delusion.

J. Polk Gates, a wellknown farm
er, committed suicide at his home
in Henry County, three miles
southwest of Paris, last week by
taking a dose of strychnine. No
cause is known for the deed, as he
had just returned from the Mem

spirits. He was 58 years old and
was a Confederate veteran and
leaves one son, with whom he had
been living recently. He formerly
lived in Arkansas, but was a native
of this county and a successful
farmer.

tion, and I must say the best one

The soil varies here as elsewhere.
We have from the rich alluvial soil
of the Washita River to the spur
of rock that oyerhang the canyons
on the prairies. 1t is a mistaken
idea to think that every foot of
land in the great West is a perfect
bed Of deep rich soil that is mex
haustible, and all you have to ac-
complish is to wait till harvest
time and reap from the riches
thereof. The soil on the Washita
River will average about two feet
in depth and varies from a loose
red, light black to a red and black
gumbo. In lot of 20 acres you
can find some of each kind. This
land will average 40 bushel of corn
and 1000 pounds of cotton per acre.
Although some years it yields rs
bushels Of corn and1, 800 pounds of
cotton.
Those who are farming in Ten
nessee with one horse plows going
from s to II times to each row, be-
sides preparation for planting and
planting, would scarcely give me
credit in saying one man can make
$500 bushels Of corn in the West
and not go more than four times
to each row.
Just think of one man making
$500 bushels of corn with so little
labor. The prairie land or upland
that lies next to the bottom is as
good as bottom, but further out on
the prairies not SO good.
We have plenty of timber fo1
fuel along the streams-pecan, red.
bud, cottonwood, elm, red and post
oak. No hickory or white oak
We have plenty Of good drinking
water, both hard and soft, and oc
casionally well of gyp. Take it al
in all, this is a very pleasant place
to live. The farmers can max,
