News and Views or Pisgah.

Pisg7h. Jan 27.--A warm sunshiny
day would be u luxury indeed. The
cold has injured the oats a great deal
on the light places. Wheat loks well.
The cold did not hurt 1t.
Some fine hogs have been killed
here There are some more to tap.
Owing TO the wet farm work is ut q
stand still. As yet nothing is doing
but that Is no sign but what all things
will come right In full time to plant.
Farm labor Is more plentiful and
cheaper than last year. 1 think
very little guano will be used. More
attention Is being paid towards home
manure which is best after all.
L am glad to see such men as Coker
and others are against the cotton re
duction law. for 1t is a slap In the face
OF the farmers. Those people who
want State guardian over them
should move TO Russia. then they
would have boss right. / am sur
prised To see an intelligent man ad-
vocating the right of the State to dic-
tate and manage private business
Such people have a poor estimate OF
liberty.
We need Andrew Jackson for pres
ident. He would show Great Britain
what Is right in a short time.

on the present stage OF action. would
doubtless feel like he had come from
