TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF oP.
PoRTUNITY TO WORK IN
FIELDS.
BREAKING THE CORN LANDS
Demand for Grass Seed is Active and
Large Area Will Be Seeded; Heavy
Rains Of Winter Have. Been An
Advantage.

While the farmers Of Maury county
have not been literally making hay
while the sun has been shining, they
have been preparing for the hay crop
of the future. Every day that It
would do to work in the fields has
been taken full advantage of.
A large portion Of the oat crop of
the county has been sown and few
more days Of favorable weather
would have put the major part of
this crop in the ground. Glover and
grass seeds have also been extensively
sown during the past week. The
demand for grass seed this spring has
been good and a considerable area
will be added to the permanent grass
lands of the county unless drouth
should overtake the crop during the
summer.
Farmers have been busy breaking
corn lands Very little Of this land
had been prepared during the winter
because of the constant rains.
There is one consolation in the
heavy rainfall of the winter and that
is that the streams generally are
fuller than they have been in two or
three years. Many of the creeks OF
the county had run very low during
the dry years but the volume Of
water begins to resemble that Of
former times

in their manner, giving US but little
encouragement to love them. But
my dear friend, do not wish to weary
you by this recital of my experiences
and will bring my letter to close by
asking you to give the comrades Of
your G. A. r. my kindly and brother
ly regards. We are without doubt,
comrades, for what can bind men
much more closely than the recollec
tion of the deprivations and dangers
we passed through and endured, while
each without hatred, was endeavoring
to do duties expected of US in the
gigantic struggle of the past. Our
trials had the effect of drawing us In
sympathy together, and even in 2
stronger tie than Masonry binding as
the Blue and the Grey in ties of warm
AFFECTION and interest. Again with
most kind regards to yourself and
your comrades, l am most sincerely
your friend.
