The Prospect For Fruit.

Jacob Faith, the well known fruit
grower, who lives near Montevallo,
In q recent communication to the
Nevada Mail, made the following
statements in relation to the condi-
tion OF the fruit:
Apple trees, m most..varieties, formed
fruit buds for q full crop.
Peach trees, as usual formed and
matured ten fruit buds where one
would be enough for full crop.
The sleet Jan. Is and 16 killed
many buds on varieties tender In
bud, but all peach trees have more
life buds than the trees can mature.
Take into consideration the mild
weather fruit buds are not advanced
and are in good condition for full
crop. The same is true Of pears,
cherries plums and other fruit trees.
Raspberries and blackberries
growth large, healthy canes or stalks
and are In good condition to yield a
full crop.
Strawberries made good plants
and formed iruit buds for Q big crop.
At present the prospect vas never
bettse for al kinds Of fruit.

The Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbett
was a revelation to the prize fighters.
From the earliest days Of the ring the
Knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but II q scientific man
had told one Of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region Of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. DR.. Pierce is bringing

Some Educational Notes.
BY sUPT. A L. IVES.

BY SUIT. A l.. IVES.
Requests are coming to she county
superintendent from teachers and
pupils In regard to the date of the
examinstionsior county graduation.
These examinations will be held at
several places In the county on Sat
urday, April 13 and 20. This date
will mark the close Of most OF the
schools and doubtless will prove sat.
isiactory to large majority Of the
pupils Examiners will oe appoint
cd and places designated in ample
time for the examinations.
The legislature has passed bill
making 8 months the compulsory
school term instead OF 6 months as
heretofore. The bill carries the pro-
vision that il 40 cents on thu 500
valuation does not maintain On 8
months school, then fewer than that
number OF months may be maintain
ed. School boards should take this
into consideration in fixing the levy
upon which the people shall vote at
the annual meeting, as no other levy
than that given In the school meet
ing notices can be voted upon. Last
year about 30 schools closed with
shortened terms for lack OF money.
This year nearly ~ many will close
for the same reason. IL the people
OF q district want an 3 months
school, they should provide sufficient
funds to maintain 1t.
Too large a percent OF our boys
and girls drop out OF school at an
early age The way to keep children

be done which will make it, nexs TO
the home the most inviting place
for the children. When this Is done
fewer pupils will leave school before

To Raise His Salary.
fsyette Advertiser.


Is was given out recently that Mr..
Geo. B. Ellis would resign as secre-
tary OF the Missouri State Board OF
Agriculture, for the reason that his
salary did not justify him to hold the
place; that he could make more
money on his farm in Bates county
Now a bill has been introduced in the
Legislature to increase the gentle
mans salary In order to retain him
as secretary. While there are mum
Der OF men within the University
quadrangle who are drawing more
salaries than they actually earn, Mr..
Ellis Ia not one OF them. The Adver-
tiser believes that you might look
the state over, and you will not find
u more competent, more energetic,
harder working aud more accommo.
dating man for the place than is Geo.
b. Ellis. lie is peculiarly fitted for
the place. He is q man Of the high
est type OF integrity. He has convic-
sionG aud conscience and makes use
OF them in his daily business When
the whip Of bossism Is cracked over
George Ellis head, he stands defiant
and continues his labors in the inter
est OF the people OF the entire state.
Mr.. Ellis has been tested and would
rather forfeit his position than hold
it by panderipg TO the dictates OF
those who would control him for
financial gain. The bill proposes to
raise his salary from 81, 800 to 80 800
per year. II Mr.. Ellis can be retain
ed, the iii should be passed without
dissenting voice. No man has done
more iur tie G ivaurcment othgricul

Fire and Explosion at
New Home Mine.

Rich Hill Review.
The New Home Coal Co.'S mine
fire few days since was caused by
one OF .he miners, who were sent TO
unseal the mine, striking match to
light his pipe with.
The men were at the top OF the
shaft and were about to examine the
mine so ascertainits condition, VIXEN
this occurred. 1t is stated that there
was such a large accumulation OF
gas in consequence OF the mine being
sealed up since the former fire broke
out, that when the match was struck
an immense illumination resulted
and the entire shaft was set on fire.
Afterwards explosion followed explo-
sion and fuel was added by each till
the shait and farmhouse were de-
stroyed.
1t is now believed that 1t will be
impossible to sxtinguish the fire till
q tunnel is dug and the water OF a
creek near by turned into the mine
and the same so thoroughly flooded
that nothing iDfamable can survive.
Then 1t will be necessary to put
down a new shaft, no doubt, before
the mine can be worked.
There is q vast body OF valuable
coal In this mine, however, and 1t is
q question Of only a short time till
It will be re-opened. It's hoded the
owners will meet with no more acci.
dents to their property.
The men involved In the affair OF q
few days since were very severely
burned.
