One of the measures passed by the
last legislature changed the election
law, the most salient feature being the
removal of the circle from the top of Il e
ballot. The first section of the new
measure provides that the ballots must
be white in color and of a good quality
of paper and the names must be print
ed thereon in black ink. The ballots
in any county must be inform in size,
| and every ballot must contain the name
of every candidate whose nomination
| has been certified or filed in accord
| ance withe The law, and no other name.
| The list of candidates of the several
| parties shall be placed in separate
columns on the ballot, in SUCH order as
the authorities charged with the print
! ing of the ballots shall decide. The
form set forth in the law is the same
as at present, with the exception that
there is no circle at the head of each
| column.

One of our prominent merCh ants has
requested us to call the attention of
owners Of COWS to the fact that the town

more than just to the property owners
that the cows should be tied. And he
is right. If there is anything calcula-
ted to make a man nave an attack of

will tie them at night there will be less
chance of their live stock being con-

IS A VERY OLD DOCUMENT.
J. D. Sturdivant Has in His Poses sion a Receipt Bearing
 Date of 1774.

The oldest instrument of writ ing it has ever bcen cur pleasure to lcok upon was shown us last Saturday by J. D. Sturdivant. It is older than the Declaration of Independence. The writing is getting somewhat dim and the paper is worn some, but consid- ing it's age, it is in a remarkably good state of preservation.
 It is highly prized as a family heirloom and Mr. Sturdivant in forms us that that the Samuel Forgey, by whom the receipt was given, Is one tf his ancestors on his fathers mothers side.
 There Is no doubt about it's genuneness and it will probably be placed in the county exhibit al the Worlds Fail.
 On it's back are some compu- tations that cannot be made out by the naked eye. The writings contained on it's face, however, are discernible to the eye. Fol lowing are the exact words which appear on it's face:
 
 Received, 9th of June, l774, of Wm. Sharp, the sum of seven pounds, six teen shillings and ten pence, part of the estate of Sam'l Forgey, deceased, and I do hereby promise and agree that if the above sum together with what I owe to the said estate by note of hand should amount to more than my just part as legatee I will pay back the balance.
 Witness my hand.

No Danger In 1t.

Some people are afraid to put much stable manure on the garden, for fear their crops will go entir- ely to weed instead of making fruit. There is an idea popularly held that tomatoes, peas, beans, and & few other plants do best on poor soil. The writer has done some gardning, and some fertiiizing, and has found the above crops very much like others, doing best on very highly fertilized soil. The best garden we ever saw had stable manure put four inches deep all over it, plowed in, cross-plowed and then harrowed.-Farm and Ranch.

Now Is The Tin,e.

Do not keep the alabaster boxes of your love and tenderness sealed up until your friends are dead. Speak cheering words while their ears can hear them. The things you mean to say when they arc gone, say before they go. The flowers you mean to send to there cofiins, send to brighten and sweeten there homes before they leave them. If a sermon helps you, it will do the preacher good to tell him of it. If an editor writes an article you like, he can write a better one next week if you send him a note of thanks.
 If my friends have vases laid away, with perfumes of sympathy and affection would be glad if they would bring them out in some of
