DEAR PHL;-
Your Almanac has gone back on rs.
/ wish they would quit torecastins the
weather, it briass SO many disapp7ipi
ments and we have enough already.
/ took a trip over in the prairies last
week, and OF all the roads you eyer saw
or ever heard Of thew are the worst. r
is a sin to ride "a horse over them, in
fact, you cannot ride the roads, you
have to swim and founder about and do
the best YOU cam met DR. Jones, and
asked him how he managed to visit his
patients. He said he would swim some,
wade some and prize his horse ont once
ia awhile, These people surely do not
realize what comfort a good road is
aud how much more valuable their
lands would be if they only had good
roads, for It's a fine country. At W.
D. Windham' :, DR.. Cooks and other
places, YOU will see as fine clover, al
falfa,, melilo,us. timothy, herds grass
and many other grasses, as fine as you
wish to see, aud is now ready tor the
mower.
Mr.. W. D. Windham has breed Of
hogs that are very valuable; he calls
them ''Non Rioters, says the way he
got the breed, he put rings in their nose
for several years and now this genera
ton will not root. Any one wishing
any further information about these
hogs can address w D. Windham,
Stone, Ala,
Dr., J says he does not know what
the ladies would do without the tele-
phone, and tsat they send a petition mp
every night to the good Lord, for Drs,
c. and P, and you know they need it
The young ladies' want the phone fixed
so they can tell their best fellow some
things they alone would like to hear,
and they will rise up and call them
blessed.
Everything is IN a push, planting
corn, cotton, gardens &c Vegetation
is growing rapidly and if it were not for
that Almanac Of yours, things would
look brighter,
Dr.. ana J W Paulette are putting
up a regular network of telephone wire
over the nolthern and eastern portion
Of the county. We need more progress.
i've men like the Paulettesi they have
about fifteen miles Of wire netting and
barbed wire around their lands, That
is the quickest and easiest way to get
rid of the worthless and triAng Niger,
they ale preparing for il, for it is bound
to come.
I see the Governor Of Wisconsin wants
our little Governor to send delegates to
Atlanta to discuss Mr.. Niger. Now,
what have We in common with the
yanks, to discuss the negro with him,
If they will let the negro alone, he does
not need to be discussed. He should
have told him what Governor Jelks of
Alabama told the Governor Of Georgia :;
mo negro question to discuss in his
state.
Now, can't you prevail on the Board
Of Supervisors to issue about $50, 600 in
bonds and make start on the roads?
In every issue of your valuable paper
l see more fellows want Office, A good
man offers himself for the Legislature,
Ed Patty. He would make a good rep
resentatiye: highly educated, carried
/ off first honors and prize in his law class
a. Oxford and is nicely fitted 10 90 tc
the Legislature, and then, too, he
should be elected, for his father was &
friend to the whole people, aud they vii
find Ed chip off the old block. Ed i
running on his own record and thinl
he will make a record that we will b
proud of. UNCLE NED.
