berry is about the biggest man in the

The prospects now are certainly much
better than they were this time last
year, and If luck comes our way we
expect to float another pennant from
the mountain. Chigger Brown may
be out of the game, he says now that
he is not going to play because of his
diminutive size, but believe that
when the time rolls round to don the
uniforms again that Browne will be
one of the first to rush into the toys.
He will manage the team in the event
that he doesn't play"
Mr.. Faulkenberry doesn't think Van

and some little glory"

swEETHEARTs AND WIVES.

-TNni . HNO WIVES.
Y sTeethearts were sweethearts a
ways,
4 Whether as maid or wife.
No drop would be half so pleasant
In the mingled draft Of life.
But the sweetheart has smiles an,
bushes,
When the wife has frowns and
sighs.
And the wife's have a wrathfuI giltte,
For the glow Of the sweetheart's
eyes.
Il lovers were lovers always,
The same to sweetheart and wife
Who would change for future of
Eden
The joys of this checkered life?
But husbands grow grave and silent.
And cares on the anxious brow
Oft replace the sunshine that perish
At the words of the marriage vow.
Happy is he whose sweetheart
Is wife and sweetheart still,
Whose voice, as of old, can charm
him;
Whose kiss, as of old, can thrill;
Who has plucked the rose to find ever
Its beauty and fragrance increase
AS the flush of passion is melIowed
In loves unmeasured peace;
Who sees in the step a lightness,
Who finds in the form a grace,
Who reads an unaltered brightness
In the witchery of the face.
and unchanged. All, happy
Is he, crowned with such life,
Who drinks the wife, pledging the
sweetheart,
And toasts in the sweetheart the Wife! !

"DUNDEE's" LETTER
Tells Of the Farm Conditions, Etc,
in Bowman Section.

A general rush with "git-up-
and-git" move with the plows is be-
ginning to tell, and the cotton crop
is already showing its beneficial re-
suits. After a week or, so more
of comparatively steady blowing,
the familiar sound of "gee and haw'
will be hushed and the destiny of
the crop for the year 1909 will be
sealed, so far as plowing is concern
ed, and the gaded stock will have
comparative rest for a season.
Hon. Samuel Dibble is in for
another big crop Of sweet potatoes,
having made success in cultivat-
ing, harvesting and feeding them to
stock last season. He will increase
the acreage planted this year, and
doubtless much heavier yield will
be produced.
Farm work has made good pro-
gress during the past five 70 six
days, the weather being very favor
able for killing grass successfully.
The election on the Liquor Ques-
tion" is likely to result in favor Of
prohibition in this section. If it
had gone before the people at pri-
mary. it is question whether the
"wets" would have won, but in a
general election, many being debar-
red from voting, the "drys'' will no
doubt win. Some will win votes for
prohibition and turn right around
and operate blind tiger

This correspondent was very much
struck with patch of grass, the
seed of which came from Cuba, now

rient growth, averaging about four
