Esteemed editor and readers. when
fail to use the opportunity of writing
few lines from the grand old Lone
Star" state, feel like have neglect
ed duty take it as privilege
extended by the kind editor that
should not be neglected. We can talk
to our friends through the columns
of the good old News and keep in
touch with many that otherwise
would be forgotten aud pass out this
life and we would know nothing about
them. Then it is pleasant to see &C.
counts of old friends. Yes, I think
the News should be appreciated more,
aud be in the home of every family in
the valley. and surrounding country,
and in the home of everyone that has
left the dear old valley. Everytime /

quatchie Valley, as it was the home
Of youthful days and pleasures. Yes.

a friend there that would love to

little, thereby helping make better

of it, to say nothing Of looking out
for the news of the country. If edi-
tors and their families had not have
got into the extravagant habit of eat
ing and wearing clothes. they might
hire few hundred reporters at sal
airy of few thousands a year to get
out and get these items, Would that
we had more like "Lone Star" Those
who appl eciate the difficulties of get
ting out newspaper without proper
support are found. like angels visits,
few and far between. Ed.
We have one of the finest crops of
grain, vegetables, melons, etc, that
we ever had here. Corn is about
made. Cotton looks fine, but cotton
can promise more and at picking time
yield less than any other crop. You
can't figure safely on cotton crop
until you have gathered and sold it.
