CORRESPONDENCE
BOlinger.

Tuesday, June 29.-Every one seems
delighted with the rains Of the past
week.
]. H. Goodwin and family are spend
ing a few days at Linden, Texas, with
Mr.. Goodwin's parents.
Quite number of the families here
are preparing to move to other fields of
labor since the mill has closed.
Early peaches are ripe. The Bossier
Fruit Company is shipping every day by
express. The Albertas will be ripe in a
couple of weeks. Then carload ship
ments will begin. The entire crop has
been sold.
The water in Phelps Lake is falling
very slow. Most all low land is still un-
eer water. This means that there will
not be much planting done after the
water goes off. It will be too late for
either corn or cotton. The big ditcher is
on the ground, ready for work on its con-
tract as soon as the water gets off. Dc
not become dismayed. 1t may be five
years before we get another overflow.
The saw mill of S. H. Bolinger &
Company cut it's last log June 23d, after
a constant run of twenty-one years. II
will take several months to ship the
lumber now on hand. MS.

When You May Hunt Deer.

From the State Conservation Commits
sion, with headquarters in New Orleans,
we have received the following circular
letter, which should be of interest to all
resident readers, and particularly to
sportsmen:
Acting under authority vested in this
commission by Act 2O4 of 1912, as
amended by Act Al of 1914, for the pro-
lection of deer,
Be it resolved, That the open season
for the killing of deer shall be from
September 18th to January 9Th, inclu-
sive, of each year.
That still hunting for bucks only shall
be allowed without the use of dogs from
the 18th day of September until the 18th
day of October, inclusive, of each year.
That bucks and does shall be allowed to
be taken and killed and hunted with
dogs from the 10Th day of October until
the 9th day of January, inclusive, of
each year. That no deer shall be killed
for sale, offered for sale, or had in
possession for sale at any time. A per-
son may take five such wild deer in an
open season and may possess two car
cases or parts thereof at one time.
The passage of this resolution cancels
all previous resolutions governing the
killing of deer and is in full force and
effect after this day.

Dear Editor: Please allow me space
for card of thanks.
During my recent illness I was absent

Hoss. l feel grateful indeed to them,
to those who visited me and to all who
in any wise ministered to my needs.
They have my heartfelt thanks and I
trust shall some day be in position to
return their favors. Among these wish
to mention the names of DR.. r. N.
Keoun, Mr.. and Mrs. Bolton, Mrs. Gray,
Mrs. Arnold and Mrs. Slack of Plain

Mrs. Addie Adams of Hosston. May
Heavens richest blessings be yours,
