MONTEREY.

Dear News, it is good to visit you again
after several weeks absence for unavoid
able reason.
The last few days have been very cold
and clear, and we hear of number of
hogs dying.
Mr.. J. w. Taylor killed several nice
hogs last Friday and we hear that the
doctor visited him the next day. We
don't know what is the matter with him,
but the neighbors say that they don't
think that he had pneumonia. We hope he
is better now-as advice is cheap, we
advise Wesley, IF you can't be good, be
careful"
Quite crowd was disappointed at the
Methodist church Sunday. The congrega-
ton assembled to learn that the regular
appointment had been changed to the
fourth instead of the second Sunday. The
usual inconvenience of change was felt
by all.
We are indeed sorry to note the sad
accident that befell little Julius, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Harvie Afford, last Fri
day. He went to Jackson with his papa
and was left for few minutes to hold
what had always been very gentle team.
In the short absence of the father the team
became scared and broke to run. Julius
chung to the surry until he was carried
about half of mile to the river bridge.
Here the team ran into loaded wagon,
throwing the little fellow upon the bridge.
He was quickly attended by the best ply
sicians in Jackson and was found to have
sustained a fracture of the skull He is
now in the sanitarium and is reported to
be getting along nicely for so serious an
injury.
Farmers are showing some signs of
life. Many smokes of burning logs and
trash are seen, and some blowing is be-
ing done when the weather will permit
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris Afford are in
Jackson with their injured son this week.
Our school seems to be moving along
nicely.

good thinking in Mr.. Williams address.
There is no question in my mind about
the great Mississippi Legislature doing
the right thing in selecting the lamented
McLaurin's successor. The electors aim
to do right, and the Great Ruler of all

he be whom he may, he will be our SEN

BOIL WEEvIL WILL CAUSE 4
GREAT REDISTRIBUTION.
Hopes to Control the Bug through The
Nosu Poison, Arsenafe of Lead-Smait-
est Yield of Cotton Since rS99-Says
Mr.. Hunter, of Texas.

The cotton crop of the year 1909 is
going to be the smallest since 1899, ac-
cording to statement of w. D. Hunter,
of Dallas, Texas, expert in the depart
ment of agriculture.
at is due, "said he in addressing the
house committee on agriculture ito the
weevil in Louisiana and in portions of
Arkansas and Mississippi and to the ex-
tream dry weather in Texas. The boil
weevil, he declared, undoubtedly would
cause a remarkable redistribution of the
production of cotton, first in large areas
What were large centers of production
formerly, he said, were going to show a
reduction and more than that, there
would be a redistribution of the small
lest plantations
"In the large back-from-the-front
production is going to fall off. Ac-
cording to all we know about fighting
the boil weevil cotton cannot be planted
prohtably in such situations as these back
lands, with poor drainage. But the soil
of almost every platation in the South
will permit the planter to continue to
raise cotton proftably despite the boil
weevil. Recent experiments with. a new
kind of poison powdered arsonate of
lead-seem to indicate that even where
the weevil is most numerous certain de-
gree of control may be obtained.

DEATH OF DR. c. r. NORMAN.

DR.. c. X. Norman died at his home at
D'Lo last Friday, after an illness of about
three months. He was in his Sznd year,
having lived in this county, near Cato,
for over 50 years, practicing his pro-
fession.
DIR. Norman leaves an aged wife and
three children--one son, Hon. Thos. Nor
man, a prominent attorney of Oklahoma,
and two daughters, Mrs. Freddy and Mrs.
Ellis Patrick. Z.
His remains were laid to rest with
Masonic honors in Cedar Lawn Cemetery,
NJ Jackson lat ..snna-y.
At all times under all circumstances
DR.. Norman walked in the well beaten
path of righteousness and when fully
conscious that he was nearing the last of
earth, he appeared to be fully impressed
with tlie idea that at the end of time
eternity began, and that the bright faith
which sustained him during those trying
hours of suffering would only grow
brighter and brighter as he journeyed
toward the Infinite and the final gloom
of death be dispelled by the radiance
of Gods love. Could all live the just
and upright life DR.. Norman lived, and
die in his trusting faith, death could no
longer be called "The King of Terrors"
for he inspired no terrors there. The
dying man and sorrowing family looked
forward with the same eye of faith to the
brighter future where this temporary sep
aration would end in an eternal reunion.
Peace to his ashes.

SAM AMMONS.

"PaIe death approaches with an equal
step, and knocks Unfortunately at the
door of the cottage and the portals of the
palace"
Death has seldom claimed for his own
one more ready for the summons than
Sam Ammons, the intelligence of whose
death on Monday morning, January 10th,
shocked and saddened this community.
Everybody knew him here and "none
knew him but to love him, nor named him
but to praise" Some one has said, "Men
in general do not live as if they looked
to die; and therefore do not die as if
they looked to live" But of Sam Am
mons it can be said without contradiction
or equivocation that his life was the ex-
empli6cation of Christianity
Sam Ammons was born thirty years
ago in Scott county, the oldest of family
of eight children. On the death of his
father some twelve years ago the parental
responsibility of the house fell upon his
shoulders and right nobly did he do
his duty. He was faithful and consis-
tent member of the M. E. church of
Pelahatchie; Knight of Pythias and
Woodman of the World.
He was a young man of most modest
demeanor and gentle and retiring dispo-
sition Never by word or act was he
knnown to- intentionally offend anyone.
He lived a life worthy of emulation. AS
a guardian in the home he was watch
full, loving and indulgent. Brothers and
sisters looked to him as to devoted
father. As member of the church he:
was true to every vow, proud of his
membership, and ready always to respond
to the call of service As a citizen he
practiced all the term implies He was
honorable always, never hesitating to stand
for civic purity.
The sympathy of the town and of all
who knew Sam Ammons goes out freely to
the bereaved family. His godly life-his
open Christian character is splendid
legacy to his home, and may it be an.
inspiration to all who knew him
so his life has flowed
From the mysterious urn a sacred stream,
In whose calm depths the beautiful and
pure
Alone are mirrowed, which though shapes
of i'll
May hover round its surface glides in
light,
And takes no shadow from them"
JOHN RUMBLE.

YOU CAN'T BEAT BRANDON.

On the 9TH of January the following
special was sent from Brandon to the
Times-D emocrat:
Brandon, Miss, Jan. THE mer-
curry registered degrees above zero here
this morning, the lowest temperature in
twenty-five years. Ice one and a quarter
feet thick formed"
The weather was rather cold here in
Jackson, about this time, and other towns
reported sleet and snow, and some ice
but none of them this side of Winnipeg
reported anything to compare with the
conditions at Brandon. But then, the
country has come to understand that Bran
don always leads, and is not surprised
that it should report ice foot and quar-
ter thick.
The boys and the girls of the old town
must have had high old time "skeeting'
on the ice "Busick's pond'' and "Shelby's
hole must have been places of great re-
sort for a few days, and many's the hard
bump some of the skaters must have got
ten.
II has been remarked here during the
Senatorial caucussing that Brandon is
not in the running for once in her exis-
tence There are not many men living
today who can recall the time when Bran
don did not have candidate for Senator,
or Governor, or some other old Office, when
anything akin to state convention was
on-and this Democratic Legislative eau
