weather this last week, which, of course.
put quictus on farm work. Very
little cotton seed have been planted,
put our farmers are now ready and ara
putting the seed in the ground Mt n
lively rate. a large crop will bc plant
cd this year. but we don't believe it
will surpass that OF last year, for n
large amount OF tho land is sown in
grain.
Plenty of corn is being planted, and
VIC think that some farmers IRE begin
nlng to realize the great Importance
and necessity of making their own sup-
plies on the farm.

The picnic season is almost upon us.
and the young folks, of course, hail
with JOY these social gatherings, when
much merriment Is pleasantly antici-
pated. AS this is election Year the
dear candidate will also have his share
OF the fun. Yes, they will be there
every. time, and will entertain us with
speeches concerning their platform. It
to behold the Candidate as he stands
before the people pleading for office.
he speaks long and earnestly at such
gatherings, and no doubt it Will weary
us all, for we expect n goodly number
OF them this year on the chess board
OF politics. The political pot is not
boiling as fast as some of the preced-
ing years, but when it does commence
we fully expect it to boil beyond its
bounds, and great will be the overflow.
put the farmers have endured q whole
lot, and perhaps they can continue to
put up with it. One thing we have no.
ticed, too, and that is they are not
making themselves known as early as
usual. Maybe they are waiting to see
If the "other fellow" IS going to run.
