From CartervlIIe.

Mrs. G. T. Mays, of this place, and
Mr.. Bennett, Of Springtown, Texas, are
visiting Mrs. Julia Orr, OF Texarkana,
Ark, this week.
Hurrah for N. w. Stewart and N. w.
Sentell at the Parish Fair! They were
apparently on the sweep for premiums.
Such interest is necessary to give us
good fair.
We are glad to state that our esteemed
friend, eddie Robertson, is fast improv-
ing and will be at home soon. We often
think of your long and lonely hours at
the sanitarium, eddie.
We hear some talk of Is cent cotton
by both union and nonunion farmers.
They all have the same views on this
question. Stand pat, boys, for Is cents.
It has cost about that much to produce
it, and it is worth the money now, so
why not hold out for it. You have every
assurance that this price will soon be
paid. We believe the Farmers Union to
be great organization, and that present
conditions demand that every enterprise
ing farmer take hold and help to turn the
wheel to a high mark of success.
We are pleased to note Mr.. j. w.
Elston's views on the road question.
This is the most perplexing problem
now confronting the Police Jurors of our
parish. On Jan. / of this year would no
doubt have been the opportune time to
make the tie-up proposed by Mr.. Elston.
Mules at that time were selling at fancy
prices, and they would have brought
more than will perhaps be offered again
soon. Something must be done to re-
duce expenses, or soon our great parish,
Of WEIGH we are all proud, must go into
bankruptcy. A great deal might be
said on this subject, but the writer be-
lieves in action and little talk. GIN.
