LETTER TO CRAWFORD BROS.

Dear Sirs: We asked City Drug
Co, Crystal Springs, Miss, to sell
Devoe. They wanted to know, OF their
own knowledge. how it compared
with another paint they knew all
about-it was sold right there, and
considered good
They painted the house of w. b
McCluhey two coats on purpose to
test the two paints against one-anOth-
er one coat DevOe q gallons: the 9TH
er coat that other paint 10 gallons.
Difference of $40; 81 for paint, $13
for labor
That other paint is made in New
Orleans: is pure; is considered an ex-
cellent paint. and has good deal of
local goodwill.
But the standard of paint has been
low all through the southwest That
paint is thin; it is, you see, siX-tenths
OF paint. DevOe saves $40 over it
on half small job
1t is a case of local best compared
with actual best.
Yours truly,

In Memory of Little Lloyd
Pierce Roddey.

Little Lloyd Pierce Roddey, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. f. b. Roddey, aged one
year and twenty days, died April IL,
1907.
Darling Lloyd, he has left US,
Left us, yes, forever more;
But we hope TO meet our loved one.
On the bright and happy shore.
We had little treasure once,
He was our Joy and pride.
We loved him, ah ! perhaps too well,
Fer soon he slept and died.
All is dark within our dwelling,
Lonely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly,
Has forever passed away.
Another lamb has gone
To dwell with Him who gave,
Another little darling babe
Is sheltered in the grave.
God needed one more angel babe
Amidst His shining band,
And so he bent with loving smiles
And clasped our darling's hand.
Dear little hands, / miss them so.
All through the day wherever / go.
All through the night how lonely it
seems.
For no little hands wake me out of
my dreams.
| miss them all through the weary
hours,
| miss them as others do sunshine
and flowers.
Day time or night time wherever |
go,
Dear little hands, i miss them so.
MOTHER.

In the death of Mrs. Grace
White Springs The Ladies' Aid
Society desire to express their
sorrow and grief at our loss, and
to record upon our minutes this
tribute Of love to our esteemed
co-'aborer. We recognize in her
death a solemn and painful prov.

down while it was yet day." in
the meridian OF usefulness and
promise.
We know that God doeth all
things Alright and maketh all
things work together for good to
them that love Him; and this
separation, which has been
brought about by our Heavenly
Father, can work no evil.
"Though He cause grief, yet will
He nave compassion according to
the multitude of His mercies. )"
"For he doth not alllict nor will
ingly grieve the children of men"
but ''as father pitieth his
children, so the Lord pitieth
them that fear him." So, with
unwavering faith, we look up in.
to thy face and say, as she did,
"Thy will be done"
Our hearts are full of sadness
as we reflect that she will be
with us no more. We will miss
her bright, cheerful greetings,
her clear judgment, her energy
and skill in execution and faith
fulness in every duty. The good
her life has wrought will never
perish; would that we could do
the work that she has laid
down. This society has been
bereft of one of its most gifted
members, one Of its brightest or
naments, and each member of it
has lost friend. AS the years
break with increasing force up
on our heads, our hearts will
sigh:
"Oh for the touch of vanished hand.
The sound of a voice that is still"
We tender our heartfelt sym.

commencing them to the "Man
of Sorrows" and the abiding pre-
sence of the Holy Spirit, the
Comforter.

At pres ent every Democrat I meet, and they come here from all over the country, Is anxious to know who the Demo crats should nominate to beat MT. Roosevelt. Some think Mir.

The great fear seems to be that if Mir. Bryan is renominated for the third time, he will be defeated.

HOW NATIONAL FORESTS
 SERVE THE PUBLIC.

SThe use of the National Forests" |" a publication just printed by the De- pertinent of Agriculture, is a brief, clear manual for public information as to the forest policy of the National Government.
 It is too true. as the short preface to the public says, that many people do not know what National Forests are. Others may have heard much about them, but have no idea of their true purpose and use" It is the ob- ject of this publication to explain just what the National Forests mean, what they are for. and how to use them.
 In the first place, it is explained how their boundaries are drawn. Next their direct use and value are shown from the point of view of the home seeker, the prospector and miner. the user of timber, the user of the range, the user of water. and other users Of Forest resources. Third, it is shown how the Forests are intended for use, for the production of usable pro- ducts, and for the establishment and maintenance of homes; how on all of them the timber is protected from
  the forage on the range is increased and guarded from abuse; and how, in addition, they serve as great public playgrounds and as breeding places and refuge for game. Finally, the management of the. National Forests is described.
 Here it is that the great usefulness of the Forests is brought out most clearly and strikingly; for the Forests are managed by the people in their own interests, and every means is used to meet the desires and wants of all Forest users half way by deal ing with them in the main directly on the ground and in all cases with the utmost practicable dispatch and freedom from red tape.
 In a word. the special interest of this manual lies in its showing that the Forest policy of the Government, both in principle and in practice, is for the benefit of the ordinary man, for the benefit of every citizen equally. There is still a tendency to think of the National Forests as ''preserVes"

FARMER WILSON BEHIND THE
 TIMES
Shows How Much in Rear of Procession the Agricultural Department Is, With Its Old Advice to Farmers.
Especial to Reivew.)


 WASHINGTON, July 10.-Good old farmer Wilson who by the grace of Mckinley and Roosevelt has run the Aricultural Department for the last ten years, and as some claim run it into the ground, has become a laugh ing stock in Washington and Kansas. It appears that when the green bug was deyasting the Kansas wheat fields Farmer Wilson," out of the goodness of his heart, decided to give the Kan. sas farmers some advise how to beat the bugs" in the future. Plant tur- key red wheat, said Farmer Wilson, for in 1897 made experiments and found that turkey red spreads out and withstands the ravages of bugs better than any other variety. But the mill CTS and wheat growers all over Kan sas began to poke fun at Farmer Will son for making experiments in 1897 with turkey red wheat, as for ten years previously Kansas farmers had grown that variety almost exclusively.
 This shows how behind the times reforming. Its statistics are rotten and have been the sport of grafters; many of its so-called scientists are far behind the times as the turkey red wheat episode indicates; the scientists of the Weather Bureau, which is part of the Agricultural De pertinent, are still working on the er- roneous plan and theory of the winds and weather adopted 36 years ago and the weather forecasts are spoken of as not as reliable as Hicks predic- tions published a month ahead. The Department of Agriculture, as well as other departments of the government, is suffering from dry rot and grating brought about by so many years of control by Republican partisans, who that party cannot, if it would, get rid of from the party necessity of pro yiding for its camp followers, who if not furnished with what they have, or something equally as good, would turn and rend it. It is not the clerks who are to blame, though some of them are worthless, but the Republi- can politicians who are in charge of them. If the voters knew one half of the partisan and grating conditions in moat of the departments they would ioin in the cry turn the rascals out g

 The book is written by MT. Frederick E. Olmsted, whose intimate knowl- edge of conditions in the West and the policy under which the National Forests are managed especially fits him to deal with the subject.

LOGAN G BRYAN ON WHEAT. Special Wire to Duey & Overlook.

CHICAGO, July 10.-As usual, wheat traders were demoraliZed dur ing most of the session because of the arrival of the crop figures by wire from Washington. The report con- tained no special surprise as far as wheat was concerned. Seven-eighths of 1 per cent improvement in winter wheat condition from June report and a decrease of 1.5 per cent in spring crop conditions. These figures based on the acreage given for winter wheat in May and for spring wheat in June suggest a total crop of617,' 900, 900 bushels as compared with 7l5 900 900 last year. Very many ad- verse reports coming from North Da' kota and the northwest buying wheat here now. A very bullish situation is likely to develop in this market.
