We are indebted to another this week for the major part of our items, not only the Subject mat ter" but for construction also as the quotations will show. We re- gret that part of the notes sent in were accidentally destroyed or lost. Alfred Dawson has his farm enclosed in an eleven rail fence. MT. Dawson says good fences make good stock, and good stock make good neighbors, which is pretty good philosophy, for no matter how low and weak fence may be, if stock gets into a man S field, he gets mad and wants to shoot, and "gun play" is trying on the temper of the other fellow who owns the stock, and the result is a condition fully of possibilities with plenty material for a full-fledged quarrel. =. Dr. J. F. Pairett went to Little Rock last week and bought him a new talking ma chine, derby hat and bill of drugs large enough to make man feel good on the creek fishing -. MT. Burgin hauled some wood to burn in the stove at the store, 1t was to Is foot poles and MT. Burgin says Proctor & Brown can chop them up, Proctor says they are short enough. We guess Proctor thinks they don't need 'em anyhow-such long poles for spring fires. They may be short enough, but green wood makes such hot fire. How is it, MT. Proctor?.
