 Quite an exciting incident happen ed in this community on last Fri day night. A one horse buggy going in the direction of Green Forest seemed to be occupied by man and woman or girl, the woman being in great dis tress and crying very loud. In fact, she was heard almost a half mile. Telephones were immediate ly brought into use and the news phoned on ahead but no one succeeded in stopping them to learn what was the matter or who they were. Several ideas have been advanced by different parties, but the real cause and the parties to trouble seems to be somewhat mystery to be solved yet, by the people out this way.
 The heavy wind that passed through this community Saturday morning biowed quiet lot of rail fencing down and scattered the wheat that was in the shocks.

Valuable to Farmers.

The Tribune is in receipt of a request from the Department of Agriculture at Washington to announce that the bureau of plant industry has recently issued a number of publications on diversified farming. While they are especially designed for the benifit of cotton growers of southern states, the suggestions are nevertheless good for the people of Carroll county, as the soil conditions are much the same and The Tribune is positive that the suggestions will serve the same general purpose they will in the cotton producing sections.
 These works, any or all of them, can be obtained free of charge by dropping the department a request. Among these works are:
 Yearbook 1905 Reprint No. BIT, Diversified Farming in the Cotton Belt," giving general description of the soil, climate conditions, methods of farming and the various types of farming that are proving successful in the

 Farmers Bulletin No. SIS, "Cowpeas," giving the latest de- velopment in cowpea culture and showing how it is fast talk ing it's place among the com mercial products of the farm by use of improved implements and in harvesting and threshing the vines.
 Farmers Bulletin No. 326, Building up Rundown Cotton Plantation,' telling of an old cotton plantation which yielded only fourth of a bale of cotton 1905, and in 1907 yeilded without commercial fertilizer of any kind more than bale of cotton to the acre.

THE present "hard times" should serve as an object lesson to the class # citizens who have felt an inclination for "city life" -or have moved to some me- troplis' not so much with the hope of bettering their condition, perhaps, as through spirit of unrest and desire for excitement incident to city life. Today with thousands of residents of the large cities out of employment and in actual want, it is the rural district that is looked upon as haven of aid to the unemployed. Here we find the people living a life, which to our city consins may appear "slow," but it is the pace that wins in just such troublous times as these. And after all the simple rural life contains more of the real good, health and happiness, than all the ex- citement of the city.

Opposes the Road Law.

Guy Lewis, one of the teachers in attendance at the institute here the past two weeks, in con- versation with The Tribune editor the other day, dropped some ideas concerning our road tax law that may possess merit.
 Mir. Lewis is farmer as we'll as a teacher and while he has no immediate symptoms of breaking into politics, it is evident that his manner of agitating things may lead him off in that direc' tion.
 "Our present road law,o said, Mr. Lewis, Sis a success in that we have had some practical demonstrations as to the manner that roads should be built, but as for general road improvement it is a dismal failure, for it is evident that the roads, take them as a whole, are in worse shape today than they were under the old system of warning out the hands.
 "The roads leading into the towns, as a general rule, are in better shape by considerable odds than they were, but take it back five or six miles in the country districts like it is where I live and there has been prac- tically nothing done to the roads since the old law was repealed, True, the overseer may have been busy and all that, but that does not give us passable roads. The farmers have to pay the road tax yet they get practically nc benefit.
 "What 1 want is a combination of the old and the new law. Let us have the roads districted as they used to be and all men of prescribed age subject to at least ten days road duty and an over- seer to serve without compensa- ton. Then give us tax with which to buy tools and equip each separate district and make it obligatory to take care of the tools and to put in the time Then l believe something can be accomplished. I know that il can be done if the law is rigidly enforced."
 Mr. Lewis went on to say that there is a determination on the part of the people in his locality to insist upon the passage of a law of this char actor at the next legislature and he would like te hear others express themselves upon this subject.
