Who Needs It Worse?

Who needs thorough course of Farm Bookkeeping and Busi- ness Training worse than the farmer? No one. That is just what the Tyler Commercial Col lege gives, in connection with it's course of Bookkeeping and Busi- ness Training, without extra charge, series of lectures on systematic Farming and set of books especially adapted to farm accounting. The farmer who at the close of each days work makes a complete record of everything done during the day, its cost, etc, is learning to study the details of the business, to watch and observe the little things, and he Is compiling val uable information for reference, and at the end of the year, he knows just what each crop has cost him; where his gain and losses come from, and by his close study and application, he will the next year lessen the los ses and increase the gain. The farm needs the trained mind as badly as the store or the railroad office. The farmer needs to be able to write good hand, to spell correctly, to figure rapidly and accurately, to know how to write deeds, or to know when they are properly written, to write mort gages, notes, contracts, etc. We would advise our young men who are farming or who expect to farm to give this matter care full consideration. We also give a thorough course in the Chasing and Marking of Cotton, a sub- ject of vital importance to our young men. The Tyler Commer- cial College has had many a young man to take the business course with the sole aim of going back to the farm and making the best farmer in the community, and a leader in all progressive movements.
 Write for catalogue, to the only commercial school in this coun- try that is devoting any atten- tion whatever to this subject, mentioning you are interested in Farm Accounting or Cotton Chasing.

New Force in Post Office.

k We now have, in the Monti- d. tlo Post Office, eur new allot- -o nts of Clerks, under the Civil ,e vice regulations. MT. Warner Id Cruce, most estimable 'i ntleman, succeeds Mr. Harry le Luckey, as Assistant Post IS aster, and Miss Lilly Higgason g. cceeds Miss Edith Luckey, as if erk, while Mr. Howard Bishop, is 10 has been in the office for the ,e e Il years, stillremains.
 " To the ex-Postmaster, Mir. E. rs Luckey, and his Assistant, W W r. Harry B. Luckey, the pres
 1t Postmaster desires to ex- leress his thanks for many acts of Kindness and courtesy extended during his term in the office and, Miss Edith, while she re- mained in the office, was atten- tive to her duties and was uni formly kind and courteous. Being new to the work :, every consideration has been shown us by Mir. E. T. Luckey and his brother and sister, all of whom carry with them our best wishes for their future prosperi- ty and happiness. It is in sim pie justice to Mr. Harry B. Luekey and his sister, Miss Edith, to state that neither of them stood the Civil Service examina- tion for eligibility longer as en- ployees of the Government, and, therefore, retired from the work :, on their own volition.
 In selecting Mr. Cruce and Miss Higgason to take their places, we feel that we have made no mistake, since both of them are highly educated, efficient and fully appreciate the import anee of their duties to the public, and being courteously inclined and anxious to please, and with Mr. Bishop, who is always ready to do his level best to give the public faithful service, and is thoroughly posted in Post-office- work, we feel safe in guarantee- ing a most satisfactory admins tration of the Post office, in Monticello. Of course, the new Clerks will require few days to thoroughly familiarize themsel- yes with the work; but with just little pactience on the part of patrons of the office, 1t will not be long until things will run smoothly and satisfactorily.
