We are having very bad weather
for March.
Some few have planted potatoes
and sowed a few oats, but the rain
and snow have stopped them.
We are disguised with the way our
Legislature is acting and will be glad
when they adjourn-the sooner the
better-or they will bankrupt the
State. They are trying to put all the
railroads in the hands Of the receiver
by legislating against them. Last
week the house approved the ~ cent
rate and the next night they re-
considered it and knocked it clear
out; consequently the railroads will
quit buying ties and building cars,
etc., and we will have to put up soup
houses. They have tried to create
new jobs and have tried to raise the
salary of all the judges, doctors and
guards at the penitentary, and begin
to create new inspectors for hay,
lumber, etc. ! am surprised at my
friend Damron making the move he
did against the ~ cent rates. He
knows the conductor. OF our railroads;
he knows when he puts them out Of
business we viii have a famine down
in this timber country. What will
become Of our ! e.haulere II the rail-
roads quit buying ties and lumber,

FRIEND AUGUsT-It is hard for me
with my limited comprehension to
understand just what You are driving
at, unless it be that because you
have trouble from the cows intruding
from outside the city, you want all
your neighbors to be similarly afiict-
ed. In this you are like the pious old
sister captured by the Indians. She
thanked God that "they've got the
preacher, too" If Herr Rieke has
such a hard time with the marauding
COWS now, while they are at least
partly restrained, won't he be trans
ferred from the frying-pan into the
fire by their wholesale turning out?
Won't his garden and his field need
stronger fences2 win it help him to
have his neighbors compelled to ex-
pend their money in building fences,
also? Does he think it right that I
shall be put to expense because he
wants to keep a COW without provid-
ing her with enclosed pasturage? AS
to the automobiles and the dust they
kick up, does he think that the free
COW law will abrogate or mitigate that
discomfort? Sufficient splotching
might keep the dust from flying, but
wouldn't such benefit, in smell and
unsightliness, ''cost much more than
it would come TOT" I say nothing Of
the changing bell--and / understand
my friend employs an unusually large
one-for that would enliven the town
and win us from oversleep. And let
me, as a friend, assure him that that
"boycottr idea Of his is but a Pigment
Of the brain-"all in my eye, Bette
Martini We all love him, for good
and varied reasons, and are content

Some more trading in this town.
Charles E. Bolch traded the property
known as the Sam Jackson house in
Annapolis to David Paris for his farm
one-half mile south of town, Mr..
Bolch giving a difference of about
eight hundred dollars. Mr.. Paris has
got him a good home in Annapolis
and will move to it in the near future.
A. Reese & Farr are on a trade be-
tween them but it is not affirmed yet.
One partner owns all of their belong
ings in Annapolis and the other
one all in Des Arc, which
would be a nice thing for both part
ners, But as there is no trouble be-
tween those two parties in business,
there may not be any trading done
for some time to come.
The old lady Sintha Brewer is very
feeble; not much show for her to
recover.
Harve Lloyd is stAi holding out, but
not able to be out of bed at any time.

If he can once get him filed up he
will make a cheap boarder, but it will
take a lot Of beefsteak and navy
beans to even start to filling him up.
Stay with him, Ben; it is a good place
to board for the winter. 1t means
about two months board for nothing
as he is not apt to be convicted in
court with the charges alleged
against him.
Walter Pennington has returned

ports work scarce out there.

I'm awfully interested. Wasn't it sim
ply terrible over there? And did you
really live in the trenches for weeks

you could stand it. Were you ever hit
by one Of those forty-two centimeter
guns? mean by the bullet, Of course;
not by the gun. But, then, Of course,
you weren't. or you'd have your arm
In a sling or something. Who do you
think is going to win? suppose l
shouldn't ask you that, though. You
soldiers are not allowed to tell mill
tary secrets, are you? Did you ever
really kill a man yourself, or don't
you know? My uncle, who was in the
Spanish war, says you never can tell
whether it's your bullet or somebody
else's that hits the enemy. should
think that would be awfully annoying.
Not that you want to know that you'd
killed a man, but still you'd like to
know whether you're wasting your am
munition or not. Oh, must you go Sc
soon? l wish you could stay longer
I've been so interested in hearing your
adventures. Call again soon, wont
you, Good-by."
