 J. H. RAMSEY.
 Fruit growers are pretty we'll agreed that the late snow did little or no dam- age to fruit. All kinds except peaches present excellent prospects. These promise light crop on some varieties.
 Rev. Hatfield reports good success in securing homes for the delegates to the district conference which meets here May 4. He would like to have few more homes at his disposal, however, so as to make sure that all may be easily cared for. The prospect is good for large attendance and good interest in this meeting.
 THE TRIBUNE office begins the coming week the printing of an edition of 5 1000 catalogues, 50 pages each, for the Ozark Normal. This will be one of the largest jobs of printing ever turned out in the county and we expect it will be one of the very neatest. There is a limited amount of space in the book that can be secured for advertising purposes.
 Druggist R. L. Jernigan has this week installed in his store one of the latest improved soda fountains and will be prepared to serve his customers with all the latest fads in soda drinks during the hot weather season. This is move that speaks we'll for the enterprise of Green Forest and we doubt not that it will prove highly profitable invest ment.
 A letter to J. A. Buell. brings the information that J. o. Michell, former cashier of the bank here, has been re- moved from Cairo, Ill.,, to St. Louis hospital for treatment of the injury to leg caused by kick from mule several months ago. MT. Michell's condition was much worse than it had been and he is inclined to take gloomy view of the situation.
 Rich Davis, resiiing on the bench of the mountain south of town, is engaging in small way in the production of gin seng. A year ago he put out a few plants which produced him a sufficient quantity of seed to bring $20O on the present market. He has added 85 more plants this spring. Ginseng is becom- ing very rare production and the plants are now hard to find.
 J. A. and J. s. Trower, father and brother of w. E. Trower, and A. R. Grantz, brother of Mrs. Trower, all of Douglass, Okla., have been guests at the home of w. E. Trower here this week. The three visitors have been taking look at the country as we'll as visiting and it is not unlikely that we may number some of them among our citizenship in the future.
 F. N. Claflin of Eureka Springs was in town Wednesday, endeavoring to interest some of our people in new town building scheme in Oklahoma. Having been swindled once or twice in propositions of this kind our people are little wary on such matters. MT. Claflin, however, is reliable man and it is likely the town of Award, which he represents, offers some safe invest ments.
