and the forces were as busy as it was
possible for them to be.
The fowls put on the market thus
far have been of specially high grade
and what is better, they are nearly all
of this years flock, though grading
up to the required weights in the
special orders. There was perhaps a
car load of turkeys dressed and rre-
pared for shipment here Wednesday
by the Columbia Produce Co and VIM.
Barker, two of the heaviest dealers
in Middle Tennessee.
This means a handsome little sum
to the farmers of this section. a car
load of turkeys in the aggregate
amounts to $1,000, and the dealers
say that they will probably get out a
car a day Of this product the remand
er of this week This will mean $4,000
to $4,000 cn the turkey crop alone
in the county by the dealers here,
while shipments are being made from
other sections, and are being pur-
chased by the dealers at bther places.

Some Of the combinations of fate
were very apt.
After the merriment over the sew
eral fates, the bride was asked to
come into the living room, where on
a table were piled up the gifts-hand-
kerchiefs, fancy embroidery pieces,
household linen, silver, cut-glass and
beautiful hand-painted china. As the
bride opened the packages and read
the good wishes and clever verses,
the other guests gathered around,
seemingly rs much interested as she.
Then the dining room was thrown
open and the guests invited to the
table, with its flowers, cakes and
minis, presented a pretty combina-
ton of pink and white. Dainty re-
freshments of Russian tea, malxue-
rites, saltines and cakes were served
by Mrs Belts and Mrs. Stewart, as
sisted by Misses Stella and Eulla
Bolts.
Mrs. Whitthorne leaves on Friday
to join her husband at Palatka, where
they will probably make their home
in the future. She will be missed
here, particularly by the congrega-
ton of the Christian church, where
she was m active member OF the
Sunday school and Endeavor society.

scene Of merry miscellaneous show
er for Mrs Whitthorne, formerly
Miss Alwilda Spaulding, who was
married to Mr.. Whitthorne on Octo-
Der 90. The parlors were decorat-
ed with great punches of white wild
flowers, pulmosa fern and white iasa-
mine. Mrs. Bolts and Mrs. Whit
thorne received the guests in the
large reception hall. The bride wore
a beautiful white serge gown, trim
med in ornamental lace and fringe,
and a white hat and veil.
While the friends of the bride were
arriving z unique entertainment for
the guests was furnished. In the
book of fate had been placed many
fortunes In the form of pictures of de-
sirable articles, and the designation
of the calling of ones future fate.
Each picture was attached to string
and as the person selected string,
the book was allowed to open and the
person received her fate. Among the
fates was ring, piece Of money,
thimble and paper Of needles, which
of course signified the usual early
marriage, wealth, old maid and busy
life of patching. There was quite
lot of amusement as, after the draw
ing each lady told what she had
drawn and made a few remarks.

The New Government Land
Ruling.

We have just received the fol-
lowing letter from the Dodge
City land Office:
For many years IL has been
the practice 6f the government
to accept a homestead proof
where it was shown that the
settler had established his resi-
dence within six months after
making entry and continued
such residence for five years
after the date Of entry. Under
this practice only d years actual
residence was required.
1.-The homestead law requires
five years residences but years
ago it was held by the secretary
of the interior that the first six
months Should be considered as
constructive residence where
actual residence was established
within that period.
THE present secretary of the
interior, on Aug, 4th 1911, rend-
cred g decision holding that
there was no legal authority re-
cognizing the period of construc-
tive residence referred to. The
former decision was overruled
and it was ordered that hereafter
full five years actual residence
on a homestead must be shown.
However, to allow settlers to
become advised as to the new
ruling, it was ordered that same
shall not take effect until Dec. /,
1911. ...
"The present PRACTICE regard
ing Communication proof is not
changed or affected by this new
ruling. Syracuse journal.
