Unless there should be heavy receipts it
is more than probable that there will be
a further advance. a few lambs have
sold here at $500, butawe would not care

Editor St Tammany Farmer:
We have been having very nice
weather in the past few days, but
not so good at present.
STOCK in the swamp have held up
very we'll this winter.
A jolly crowd of hunters came
out from the city last Sunday,
sporting among the birds.
We enjoyed an excellent party
last night. at Mr.. James Bilboa's,
which was given for the special
benefit of his brother.
We are pleased to see Mr.. James
Stockstill, of Hattiesburg, Miss,
mingllng with friends and relatives
of this place.
The railroad switch is being re-
built here, for the benefit of those
dealing in the wood business.
We have a good school here,
which is being taught by Prof.
VIM. Bush, of Isabel, La, whose
management has proved great
success in advancing the cause of
education. 1t will close the last
of March. While we much regret
to see the end come, we can say
that one of its brightest days was
enjoyed last Friday BY the students
and audience. The speeches de-
livered by the pupils were excel
lent.
Mr.. Thomas Garsen and family
recently moved to our town. We
hope they will be pleased with this
move.
We are glad to see Mr.. Thomas
Stockstlll up again, after being
