There are several new advertisements

Mr.. C. G. Brandenburg writes us from

tile business in that town-which nov
dates back some weeks.
Last week a paragraph stated tina
Mr.. and Mrs. w. F. Kelly were visitor!
in Benton, but no mention was made o
their pretty little girl baby, now abou
six months of age. In fact, it was no
until after the Banner had been ISSUED
that we learned they we're SO fortunate.
We seriously hope the many acres t.
be cultivated this season by Bessie
farmers will produce abundantly ant
that all may share in another year 0
plenty. AS the planting season ap
proaehes bear in mind the Bossier Fai
and plant with view of growing some
thing extra nice to be exhibited. Also
your live stock and poultry should be Of
exhibit each year.
