 A little fire in Tontitown recently gave us d great scare, but no damage was done.
 The entertainment given by the Dramatic Club under the direction or Rev. Father Bandini was quite treat. Two comedies were presented. The program was as follows:
 l. Selection" Tontitown Band.
 ?. Comedy An Only Pair of Pants" Prologue-The lawyer to outward appearance well-to-do, IS really impoverished. A friend m ike circumstances, yet not trying to con- ceal his diversity, receives an invita- tion to some social function and not wishing to appear shabby, little guess ing the poverty of the lawyer, begs of him the loan ot a black suit. The lawyer then confdes to his friend that his wardrobe consists of but one suit-that which he has on. He tells him. however, that he will lend IL to him. but that he must hasten ms re- turn for in the meantime he (the lawyer must remain concealed ln ms room, not having other clothes ln which to dress. Soon after the de- parture of his friend, the lawyer s partner calls to get the keys of the of- flee which, unfortunately, were left in the pockets of his pants. Out or this arises series of Imaginable com plications. which cease only when the friend returns two hours later with the pants.
 3. Selection, Band.
 4 Comedy. @No More Deaf People Admitted Here. !"
 Characters: \ notary public (deafl, P. Ardemagni: 4 land oYerSeer ldeafh P. Fiori: Mrs. Louise Martin, proprie- tor of hotel: A transient, J. Maestrl A police, M Morsani
 In the above so much trouble arose over the misunderstanding between the Notary and the Land Oyerseer, who were guests at the hotel and or dered their dinner together to cut eX- penses, the proprietor must needs call in the police to quiet them and force them to pay their bill over which the trouble had arisen.
 The merry nipples of laughter heard from the audience throughout the en. tire length of both plays testified to the skill of the youthful comedians. The latter were Misses Rosa and Ze. linda Bastianelli, Demenico and FL yidio Morsani: P Fiori, r. Ardemag. nj, J. Maestri and L. Pianalto.
 The stage was fitted out with new curtains and secenrY for the occasion and very tastefully arranged by the director, assisted by Anthony Tessaro and Pietro Fiorir The music was furnished by the Tontitown Band.

Now Is The Time.

If you have decided to grow fruit, this spring will be an op- perfume time to set trees. for now you can get good select trees at very low price. If you procrasti- nate and wait until we get d good crop and good prices you will hardly find conditions so fayora- ble for there will not one-half so many apple trees on the market next year as there are now. And the growth may not be so good and the prices are sure to be higher. If you intend to set out an orchard, do 1t now. Now is the accepted time. Don't wait until you see your neighbor rak- ing in the sheckles for 1 fear if you do you will feel like going around behind the barn and kick ing yourself as you very probably have done before, when you won dered why you didn't have an or chard.
 If you want to know where to get the good tree the really cheap tree in the long rum every one guaranteed to give satisfac- tlon and to be true to the name, see Alvin Dickson. Did you ever stop to consider what a guaran- tee from an old and established responsible nursery man at home IS worth? If not ask some of the many parties who bought peach trees several years ago from Tennessee nurseries and they C an tell you. They saved about one cent on each tree, but they lost many thousands of dollars because the majority of their trees were not true to name. (Moral: never try to get something for nothing ) My stock of apple and peach trees include long list of the best com- mercial varieties as we'll as many for family use. Also cherry, pear, qulnce, pluins, grapevines, evergreens. shade trees and small fruits.

confident That the
plans Adopted by This
organization U will be
Carried Our.

Mr.. Atwood Violet, of New
York, has issued under date of
February 2 the following:
My presence at New Orleans
last week during the sessions of
the cotton convention gave me
an opportunity of becoming fa-
mlllar with conditions that
could not be experienced in anv
other way-that is by coming in
contact with the delegates to a
convention which was the largest
and one of the most representa-
tive ever held in this country of
an agricultural character.
l am convinced that the in
tentlon to reduce acreage in a
drastic Way will be carried out.
will reduce Shes area to the ex--
tent of 25 per cent, as they
have bound themselves and those
they represent to do, but l be-
lieve that subsequent 20 their re-
turn and talking the matter over
with their neighbors, represent
ing the feelings and attitude of
the delegates from all sections of
the South when at New Orleans,
that the curtailment may be even
greater than they have commit
ted themselves by resolutions to
do.
This is the crux of the whole
matter, because as the cotton
world is convinced that the South
will carry out this feature of the
convention spinners' demand will
increase, and it would seem to
follow that the holder of what
remains unsold of the present
crop will be all the more tena-
cious and adhere even more
closely to his determination to
wait for the higher prices for the
staple, which the South generally
thinks is in store in the not far
distant future. | copy the fol-
lowing from The Times-Demo-
crat, New Orleans, January %.
The executive committee will
issue formal call tomorrow, the
goth inst, to. the farmers and
business men in the South to Or
ganize. The producers and bus
mess men interested in cotton in
each precinct throughout the
South are to meet February II to
sign the pledges binding them to
a reduction of 25 per cent. in
their cotton acreage and of Is
per cent. in their use of CONNER
cial fertilizers. On February 16
at each county-seat are, to be
held meetings of the delegates
sent up from each precinct, and
of all others who may attend,
each precinct having fixed a vot-
ing right. This meeting is to
perfect the county organization,
elect its county officers and COM
mittees, and, if deemed proper,
select and provide for the pay
ment of the inspectors who are
to act as the police of the organi-
zation in seeing that the farmers
. who sign abide by their oaths
, and that the farmers who do not
sign are made to wish that they
, had. On February 21 at each
) State and territorial capital there
i. are called meetings of the dele
, gates elected at the various
: county or parish meetings: These
: State and Territorial meetings
, are to perfect the State organi-
> zation and ratify the selection of
the executive, committeeman

1t does seem like that if cotton
was worth buying at all it ought
to bring a price that would pay
for its production. If too much
is made don't open the market
until it is needed. / say, give
me ten cents for cotton and l
will give you what you ask for

question which is in the minds
of our best men and I hope will
be settled to the best interest of
all concerned. will say more
on this subject later.
| cannot close without saying
something about our first quar-
terly meeting of Jonesville
charge. The stewards of the
various churches met at the par
sonage with the presiding elder.
E. c. Camak, preacher in charge,
made the assessment for the
charge which was unanimously
agreed to. A good report from
all the churches came in until the
secretary's table fairly shone
with white and green, which was
very encouraging. But one or
two that were there had only a
small mite. They kindly eased
up to the table and delivered
theirs and didn't make much
noise either. One of them was
your servant but of course our
people wont let us do that any
more. But we were not to feel
bad much longer. In a short
time we were called to the dining
room to a sumptious dinner pre-
pared by Mrs. Camak. You ought
to have seen those good-hearted
stewards eat. After dinner was
over we were treated to some
fine music by Mr.. and Mrs.
Camak which we all enjoyed
very much. We hardly knew
when to bid our host goodbye.

We're upholding the cruel
sport of cock-fghting, when
we came to the conclusion
that they, were just talking that
way to be "agin Progress. Just
like several measures the people
wanted, a new Court House for
instance, which went dead just
because the people wanted to be
"agin Progress. Its not right,
boys, to cut off your nose to spite
your face, for this is a great big
world and there is plenty of room
for everybody and everything.
And as factions speak louder
than words" / am justified in
concluding that Progress has a
license from the City, State and
General Governmental "butt in. "
And anyway, what difference
does it make? Progress wouldn't
do anybody any harm if it could,
; and no doubt it only wanted to
be enterprising and make a
"swoop" as the newspaper men
call it. We must give Progress
the credit of being sincere in her
uncompromising attitude against
fighters of all description, and
we cite as proof that in a recent
issue she even jumped on the
fire-fighters.
