township. All reports were good
Our people up here mean business
and we mean to stand to the rack,
fodder or no fodder. You know
some of our noble Lee and Jack
son men were Jonesvillians that |
stood to the rack where there
was no fodder at all. We don't
mean by this that we can do it all,
but we can do our part. L don't
think we should confinc ourselves
to the cotton question altogether,
we should talk over our farming
interests generally, and be OF some
help to one another in every posi-
bic way.
If YOU know better way to plant
corn than your ncighbor don't hes
itatc to tell it. We never know
what we can do for others until we
try.
We were to have Judge J. Nj.
Greer with us last meeting to give
us a lecture on our county life in

reason he did not come. | suppose
he will be with us at our next meet

in this month at three O'Clock.
Come out gentlemen and take Il life
policy, it will cost you but very lit
tie and you will always feel safer hy
having it. The cost is so little cv-
cry one can afford to take policy
in this company. | believe it to be
the hest way we can protect our
families after we arc gone. You
know it can't be long before the
most of us will have to leave ou1
loved ones and now is the time t.
prepare for their fortunes.
