be a little reluctant over the matter,
hating to bring the reproach and dis
grace on the ones she worked so hard
to raise, and says she worked hard to
help them to have good home, aud
now she is without any home. But
such is life in this old cursed

Big Spinach Farm.

We were mistaken in our statement
last week with respect to information
sent us by W. Ell. Lasater about the
5O-acre crop of spinach raised in his
section of Texas The entire crop
brought $1,000. Mr.. Burns. the farm
er who raised the crop, gathered ten
acres and marketed it. for which he
received So, 600, and the remaining
forty acres was sold to Crockett Bros
of Austin. Texas, for 81, 900, they to
do the harvesting. Gathering and
preparing for market is quite costly.
Mr.. Burns stated that. all told. it
cost him not over ten dollars an acre
to grow the 80 acre crop. That is
some farming, one must admit. Dun

Highly esteemed editor and readers,
after prolonged slumber" and an
extended DELAY of duty as one of the
,, props and ''pushers' to our herald of
the tidings of old Marion County and
Sequatchie Valley. / thought would
make one more effort to pencil a few
items from this part of the disrupted
continent. Ye writer is just sorter re-
covering from another of his puny
spells, but is still compelled to stay in
doors on account of the wet and dis
agreeable weather. 1t rains, rains
and still rains. We thought yester-
day, Sunday. that spring had opened
up on us in lamb like style, but, a.
las this morning 1t is raining again,
and there are no prospects visible of
anything better. What we poor farm
ers are going to do if there is not a
change pretty soon is hard to see now
1t is now nsaring on to our corn
planting time, and but very few farm
ers have any preparations made for
their summer crops.
Well, it becomes our sad duty to
chronicle the sad, very sad news Of
the death of another Of our old and
highly respected ncighbors and
friends, viz, old Grandma Billings
lev. She was the widowed loving and
bosom companion of our late friend
and neighbor, Rev James D. Bill
ingsley, who preceded her some four
years ago. We are very loath to give
her mp, but she has been with us here
three score and twenty four years and
according to Divine order she could
hardly be expected to stay with US any
longer. Mrs. Billingsley was born in
1892 and breathed ker last last Tues
day night. the Goth. She was buried
the 9tst in the Knox cemetery by the
side of her devoted husband. She
leaves to mourn her absence four sons
and three daughters and several grand
children, and quite goodly number
of great grandchildren, She had been
an invalid for quite a while with
rheumatism, and was forced to use
crutches to get around in the houses
and by some misstep some way about
a week before her demise, she fell on
the porch, and received injuries that
FASTENED her death. "Old Aunt Sal
iie'' as she was frequently called, was
good christian hearted neighbor.
She was and has been consistent
member Of the Missionary Baptist
Church from her youth, and as far as
known by her neighbors lived the life
OF good devoted christian. Bro

liging neighbor, Alvin Spears, is still
In the 'throes' OF this life. After
bis mother died his wife became very
puny and became unable to be any
help to Alvin. She became belfast
and had to be moved back to her CID
home at Graysville, Tenn. Alvin's
poor old decrepid father was and is
still almost helpless, and Alvin hav-
ing no one to assist him was and IS
still compelled to stay with his faith

who is still at her fathers in Grays-
