Al Elegant Dinner.

Mr.. G.. K. Moore gave barbecue
dinner on Friday, July 4th., tc
about sixty of his friends. Barbe.
cue, fried chicken, brunswick stew,

abundance all present doing full JUS
tice to what was put before them,
That veteran cook. Isaac Powell, had
charge of the cooking of the barbe-
cue and that is assurance that it was
prepared according to the kings
taste. After dinner those present
gathered in the grove and spent an
hour in social chatting and passing
jokes and in trying to make one be-
lieve the other had made away with
more of the "cue" than the one right
by his side. But we are not going
to tell just how the vote really did
stand on the question Of who did
eat the most. 1t is sufficient to say
that all all former regulations were
sustained.
Mr., Moore has a fine crop and
everything around his premises bear
signs of prosperity.

Profitable Cows

Walter w. Mebane believes in
good cows and has quite a number
of fine Jerseys. Mrs. Mebane is
looking after the milking and
ehurning and selling of the butter
from four Jerseys that, according
to Walters claim, can't be beaten
in this section as mixers. MIR.
Mebane was telling a bunch of
his friends Tuesday that he saw
his wife that morning prepare
eleven pounds of butter from the
m lrning's churning. Mrs. Mebare
his sold since the 10th of October
enough butter to bring her the
handsome little sum of $40. Mr..
Mebane has ten Jerseys that will
b. giving milk by the first of May
unless he decides to sell some be-
t yeen this AMI that time, which
h hardly thinks he will do. The
buttermilk is fed to the hogs
which is no bad investment when
you consider the fact that pork is
selling at l21 cents a pound.

The Cincinnati whisky whole
salers, brewers and distillers, are
very much perturbed over the
whisky laws passed in Tennessee.
1t is claimed that Cincinnati houses
alone will lose more than million
dollars annually as a result of
these laws, They are packing up
aud getting out of Tennessee, re-
moving from the state all their
branch offices, teams, wagons, etc.
If this one million dollars annually
can be saved to the people of Ten
nessee who have been the con-
sumers of the Cincinnati product
the new laws will certainly ac-
complish great good.

The agriculture department at
Washington has planned the or
ganization of Pig Clubs for the

courage the growing Of more and
better hogs. The department has
already organized girls canning
clubs and boys corn clubs which
are proving very successful. This
effort upon the part of the gov

agricultural lines is very COM
mendable, and the organization
of these clubs will accomplish
great good.
