From Jones County, Texas.

During the spring l noticed that
there was complaint in the VI
DETTE of farmers in Tishomingo
being behind with their work on
account of so much rain. Out
here we are behind because of the
dry weather and l am very much
afraid some of US will never catch
up. Would say to farmers in
Tishomingo who have land and il
paid for they had better stay with
it, for there is nothing like hav-
ing home, and poor man in
this country can never buy land
and pay for it, unless times get
better than last year and this.
There are plenty of people here
who will not make half enough to
do them. Everything to live on
has to be bought at the grocery
stores at Two prices.

Beautiful Iuka.

We spent the day very pleasant

And indeed this is BEAUTIFUL spot.
The hand of man has assisted ma
ture in making this one of the
most attractive spots to the eye.
Seven mineral springs set in con-
crete, with handsome canopy top
sheds, wide and long concrete
walks leading about over the
park, a large pavilion for con-
certs and entertainments, and best
of all, large, broad spreading wat
er oaks, elms and naples, making
beautiful shade. Rustic seats
and stand swings all over the park.
1t seemed the whole town had
come down to give us welcome,
but we learned later that these
were Visitors from a distance.
However, we made ourselves at
home. Mrs. Taylor and daugh-

MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Sc
rlous Consequences Of Neg
Iect.

"Fix me up something to knock the
malaria, DOCTOR" remarked sallow-
faced, sickly looking man, entering a
prominent physicians Office the other
day.
The doctor stepped to his medicine
case, took down couple of bottles, mixed
a preparation which he handed to the
patient with the customary advice to
shake we'll and follow directions and
resumed his seat.
"Such cases are frequent, replied the
doctor in answer to a question. "The
warm days and damp, chilly nights are
certain malaria breeders and are most
serious in those who have neglected to
keep their stomach, liver and bowels in
good condition. Such persons are full
of the impurities on which the malarial
germ thrives, and it is from this class
that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright's
Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim
most of their victims whenever these dis
eases are prevalent.
The proper way to guard against the
ma1arial germ and the serious diseases
which follow it is to get into good condi-
ton by taking reliable remedy that
will keep the bowels clear and the liver
healthy, and to continue with it at fire.

A dose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or

Working Roads By Contract.

Our present system of working
the public roads is a failure. We
mean by this that it fails to Sc
cure us good roads and that it is
a fruitful source of dissatisfaction,
worry and continued complaint.
So grievous and acute has become
this dissatisfaction that our pres
ent Board of Supervisors are con-
WINGED that the time has come for
a change from the antiquated and
imperfect to the more modern and
satisfactory method of working by
contract. The road law gives the
Board the right to adopt this con-
tract system and they are serious
ly contemplating doing so at their
October meeting. We are author
lied to make this statement so
that no one can complain of being
taken by surprise, and also to
give to every taxpayer the oppor-
tunity to present his objection, if
any he should have. This he can
do either in person or by petition.
The members of the Board are
representatives of the people and
would probably not be willing to
institute system opposed by a
majority of their constituents.
The working of public roads by
contract involves the following
salient features.
l, The requiring that every
person subject to road duty shall
work eight days each year or in
lieu thereof pay a mmutation
tax of three dollars.
2. That there shall be levied a
tax on property not to exceed B
mills. In incorporated towns half
of this tax shall be paid into the
town treasury and the other half
into the county road fund.
3. The Communication tax of SO
on persons residing in incorpora-
ted towns shall all be paid into
the town treasury.
4. Persons confined in Jail for
fines and costs, one or both, can
be worked upon the public roads,
the law compelling the contractor
to work them when asked to do so
by the Board. This, in brief, is
the contract system. Of course
the contractor will be required to
furnish adequate bond that the
work shall be done. This system
has been tried in a great many
many counties in the state and so
far as we know has given COM
plete satisfaction. The results
have been a wonderful improve
ment in the public roads and there
is no disposition anywhere to re-
turn to the old system. The bulk
of the property in almost every
county is owned by people ov,r so
years of age yet under the old sys-
tenn they are not required to con-
tribute one cent to keep the roads
in repair. The contract system
will remedy this injustice and
make them pay their part; but
above all it will give us greatly
improved roads along which we
can travel with some degree of
safety and comfort enabling the
freight wagons to carry double
the loads they now do.
