ACCORDING TO THE STATUTES

Center Hill is deemed the garden
spot Of the earth and the paradise re-
gained by the farmers and truckers
who reside there. But this i the way
official business is done there:
II came to the ear Of the mayor Of
this thrifty community that one of the
aldermen had violated an ordinance he
helped to pass and the mayor sent
him word TO step up TO the captains
office and come across. Instead Of
obeying the mandate Of the towns
chief executive the offender sent
very impudent answer. which - in
censed the mayor. though a much small
Ter man than the offender. he sought
out the man who had violated the law
and gave him a sound thrashing. after
which he was brought before his honor
and assessed the limit for his offense.
with the injunction To go and sin no
more. for as long as the law existed.
all men and all officials had TO obey
the same OF suffer the consequences.

THE MoRRIsToN SECTION

The Star had a pleasant call Mon
day morning from our old-time friend,
J. J. Johnson. one Of the sturdy and
successful citizens of the Morriston
section. He reported the material in
terests Of the community in excellent
condition. The cotton crop was large
and good returns were received for
same. The oat crop was unusually good
and il is a common thing TO meet with
farmers who have in their barns any
where from 100 to 500 bushels This
excellent staple brings readily 81 per
bushel
The only thing the farmers Of this
section had to contend with was hog
cholera. and in many instances this
caused the meat supply TO fall short.
as most Of the hogs taken with this
disease were fattened and ready for
the block.
Mr.. LawtOn Priest. one Of the most
successful farmers Of his section, lost
curing the past month twenty head of
fine fattened hogs. The price of pork
has advanced and now farmers are get
ting cents a pound for dressed meat

AN AGED BRITISH TREE.
cowthorps Oak, Reputsd 800 Years
Old, Flourishing In Yorkshlre.


One OF the oldest Of British trees 10
the Cowthorpe oak, which has been
standing near Wetherby in Yorkshire
for 500 years, according to veraclous
chronicle. 1t is a tree that has been
described often and has figured In
works OF fiction.
1t is related OF this tree that on oc-
casion as many as forty persons
have been gathered within the hol-
low of its trunk, although 1t must be
confessed that some of these were
children. The most recent measure
ment showed that its girth OF trunk
at the ground was "a feet 3 inches
and the cavity was IL feet by feet.
The tree is not now so very tall,
reaching only 81 feet into the air.
There are twenty-five props about the
tree to support the falling branches.
The cavity has been noticeable only
since the beginning Of the nineteenth
century Many of the earlier meas
urements show that the tree once
was much greater in girth than now.
Aged as it is the tree bore acorns
in 1901 and 1905 and always produces
fair amount Of foliage. In 1898 an
acorn borne by the Cowthorpe oak
was planted near by and a tree IL
growing up slowly as memorial to
the parent.
