business at WaNahachie the money
to renew but he hated to see me
walk there for nothing so he gave
me a dollar and now he is one star
subscriber, being paid up till Febru-
airy /, 1911. f. F. Phillips the gin
and cotton man at Red Oak on being
told his time was out very cheerful
ly gave me a dollar. He is one of
those quiet men who talks very lit
tie but you will like him lust the
same. Mrs. Mollie Hinkle lives on
good farm not far from where she
was raised on Red Oak /. A. O. Yam

G. l.. Lyon came to Red Oak
number of years ago comparatively
poor but by industry and the use of
good business tact has accumulated
competency and is president of the

its depositors during the panic. w.
A. Owen lives on r. n. COUGHS place
near Sterrett. He has been reading
T. L. Eubank's paper for about a

l.. Eubank of the Sterrett communi-
ty had the misfortune to get his leg
and arm both broken in runaway
about two months ago. They were
very bad breaks and heal very slow
" but he is standing it like a man
and will soon be out again. X. n.
Couch was there and | accepted
seat with him in his buggy to Wax
ahachie. E. NJ. Couger, Dr. Carmen
and Levi Cavitt returned few days
ago to their home at Red Oak from
prospecting trip to McMullen
county, where they bought quar-
ter section of land each. Gene says
that is a good country. 0. M. Bruce
on Waxahachie No. 5, is the man |
told about raising good corn short
time ago. 1t is a mystery to me far
mers do not raise more corn, for
take it one year with another it pays
as well as cotton and it does not
take a whole year to raise and gath
er it.

| E. P Clark, a retired farmer liv-
| ing here, renewed. J. w. Laney from
Maypearl No. l, though over road
age, has consented to look after two
F., or three roads in his vicinity. By
the use of the grader and the drag
| he has made fine road out of what
had been considered very hard
proposition. There is no commenda-
ton too great for the road builder.
Personally, it makes no difference to
me but | like to see those who ride

hachie No was in with a load of
seed cotton today. He told me he lost

am out of material, so good bye
