The jackson correspondent OF the
New Orleans P~icayune says that re.
ports come from all parts OF the State
b a the farmers, on account OF the
very mild winter, are very advanced
In the matter Of blowing. The winter
mas also been SO mild that many out
o Improvements have been made,
which In ordinary winters even make
IL Impossible Of doing. Fences have
oeen built, clearing done, and outhous-
es built. 1t is stated from all points OF
the compass almost that more care is
being taken Of stock than heretofore;
That better sheds and more OF them are
or have been built. The idea seems 10
be that cattle will thrive on less feed
when properly sheltered than when
not, and 1t is patent to all who have
had experience that it pays, and
pays we'll, aside from the humanity OF
the thing, to we'll care for a milk COW
during the winter.

the SENTINEL is one of the smallest to
be found iu any county in the Sate,-in
tact less delinquents than 10 any paper
we have seen. This certainly speaks

COTTON HELD FOR TEN CENTS.
Farmer Has Had It for Eighteen
Years and is Still Holding.

Fort Worth. Tex, Sept. 9-It
is not often that bale Of cotton is
held for period of eighteen years,
but an instance of this kind has
just been reported. The parties to
this peculiar occurrence reside in
this county, near Birdville. a
farmer named l.. w. Jones eigh-
teen years ago harvested his cotton
which consisted of two bales. The
price at that time was not as high
as Mr.. Jones thought it ought to
be and be made a vow that he
would hold it till the staple com
manded 10 cents per pound in this
city. he consequently stored the
two bales in the loft of his barn to
keep it until such time as he could
realize 10 cents for it.
Time went on prices fuctuated
from low to high and back again
but during Jones' lifetime prices
never reached 10 cents. Jones
died, but before the end came be
requested that his son continue TO
hold the cotton until il should
bring the coveted figures. The
son agreed and he still holds the
two bales, but expects to be able
to sell it this season at the price
for which it has been held (lO
cents. During all these years the
bagging on the cotton has three
different times rotted off, but the
staple itself is said to be in good
condition.
