Ralph Burns, negro, In defense of his
own life and his sWeetheart's honor,
was acquitted by coroners jury dur
ing the day. The acQuittal met with
unanimous approval. The attempted
crime has not wrought up any great
feeling among the whites. Many OF
the negroes say that they are glad
that Burns was killed. He was re,
garded as a bad man and was feared
by many OF his own race.
The fact that no more arrests OF the

Of scarlet fever broke out, and the
county health officer instructed us
that if any more cases developed we
would have to close the schools, and
this led to our decision to close at the
end Of the eighth month. Some
people get calendar months and school
months confused. The school month
consists of twenty school days. This
is fixed by law.
There has been some comment in
regard to pay of teachers. The school
tOard has never adopted any schedule
Of salaries. They are fixed at the
beginning of each year according to
our resources. A teacher is employed
for the term, whether it be eight or
nine months. Teaching is a profession,
and teachers do not as a rule engage
in any other employment during the
summer vacation. Some attend sum-
mer schools where new methods are
taught; others in travel or study, and
as general thing, all teachers inter
esled in their work spend the Vaca-
ton months ftting themselves for
advancement in their chosen calling.
Teachers in our schools are not paid
more than in schools of equal standing
throughout the state, and when it is
considered that they are not employed
more than nine months, their years
income is no more than q reasonable
compensation.
Meetings of the school board are
public, and the board would like all
interested to attend. The books of
the board are open for inspection at
all times, and the clerk will give any
information desired in regard to school
matters. The members of the school
board endeavor to handle matters to
the best of their ability, and with the
cooperation Of all to the end that the
districts best interests be served. We
are not infallible, and may sometimes
, err in judgment. However, our great
est error this year seems to have been
in not levying heavier taxation, but
We are willing to let the people who
pay the taxes decide whether or not
this is grievous fault.
The present members of the school
board have served from six to ten
years. During the last six years the
west side school has been practically
rebuilt at an expense OF about $4,000.
Ground was purchased and the east
side school house built and furnished
at an expense of about $4,000. The
district was bonded for $4,000, and
the balance was made up from the
regular apportionment without any
additional tax levieS. Does this indi

The fact that the members have
been reelected from time to time
shows the high appreciation of theil
services by majority of the people
of the district, and the board appreci

Warm and Cold Winters.

According to the director Of the
weather bureau at the Missouri State
University, the time may not be far
distant when the United States wealth

months In advance whether the win

there are great world eddies Of air
sweeping around the globe which it is
thought cause the difference In our

established everywhere so that the
progress Of these,may be watched, the
bureau will likely be able to give in
formation by the last Of September

February and March.

The man who starts off his pigs on
the corn ration about as soon as he can
after they are weaned Is laying In a
store Of trouble for himself later. There
is trouble known to swine raisers as
contracted stomach, which results from
an improper ration. The animal Is ap-
parently 'off its feed" but the fact Is,
the ration has been SO poorly balanced
that the stomach has not grown with
the growth of the rest Of the body. II

Ing, eating Of soil and sod; as this is
their nature, 1t will not hurt them, but
if they are placed where one does not
wish the sod uprooted, then the AMI
mails must be ringed. If middlings
and oilmeal are introduced with the
corn ration there will be considerably
less trouble. Some Of the stock foods
on the market have their greatest value
to the swine raiser who does not feed
balanced ration and If these stock
foods can be obtained practically free
from drugs or condiments, they are
very valuable in such cases.

Cold Killed Weevil.

In the cotton-growing season the
farmer is prone to forget the many
new facts, developed within the past
five years, concerning the protection
of his primary crop against insects.
The leaf worm is easy enough. The
boil worm succumbs to poison and
machine gathering. The sharpshooter
and cotton-square borer can be sue
cessfully fought with paris green, ac-
cording to the best authorities. The
boil weevil must be studied further
before final results can be announced.
Fortunately, the severe winter just
past has put so many Of these pests
out Of business that the cotton crop of
Texas will be exempt from devastating
attacks from that source this season.

What Lime Does for Land.

Farmers often say that they do not
need to use lime, because they use
large quantities of it I'm fertilizer.
Ground bone and other forms of phos-
phate contain lime. We cannot obtain
phosphoric acid In ordinary fertilizers
without lime. Such farmers mistake
the most necessary function Of lime in
the soil. Air-slaked lime has chem
ical action which sweetens the soil,
makes it more compact or sets free
other forms OF plant food. This is quite
distinct from Its power to provide ac-
tual food for the plants. The lime in
the bone or phosphate may In time
serve as plant food, but the air-slaked
lime is needed for the more important
service.

CHAPTER VIII.

If there had been any doubts enter
tained or discussed as to the presenta
bility of Claud Tyars in polite circles
these were destined to an instant re-
moval when that individual entered the
drawing room of No. 1O5 Brook street.
His dress, If it erred at all, did so on
the side Of too scrupulous adherence tC
the latest dictates of society. His man.
ners were those of travelled and expe.
rienced gentleman. That is to say, he
was polite without eagerness, pleasant
without gush, semi-interested, semi-indif
ferent.
Oswin Grace advanced to meet him
with a quick glance of satisfaction at his
irreproachable get-up, which Tyars show
ed no signs of having detected.
The necessary introductions were
made, and Tyars displayed the same per
feet knowledge of social habits up tc
date. His bow was pure and simple ani
to the Admiral he offered his hand in q
calm decisive way, which somewhat in
terfered with the old gentemans digni
fed coldness.
II think" said Helen at once, with q
characteristic desire to make things pleas
ont, that we have met before"
She was looking up at Tyars, who
being very tall, stood head higher thar
any one in the room, and in her eyes
there was no speculation, no searching
into the recesses of her memory. The re
mark was without interrogative hesita
ton. 1t was the assertion of fact wei
known to her, and yet her color changed
"Yes," answered Tyars; II had the
pleasure of dancing with you on severa
occasions at the Commemoration three
years ago."

put in Lieut.. Grace.

He did not seem to think 1t wortl
while mentioning that his name was OF

What a good memory you have, Mr.
Tyars !" observed Miss Agnes Winter il

He turned to her with smile in whicl
there was no light of dawning recollec
