Health good in this section.
The weather conditions have
been very unfavorable for thespast
two weeks. Several heavy rains
have fallen and farm work has
been almost at stand. Crops
are getting very grassy and unless
the rain abates low lands will soon
be another failure as they were
last year.
Farm labor is very scarce, it
seems in fact, labor of all kinds is
very scarce.
RegistraSan day. the 5th inst,
passed off very quiet lythroughout
this part of the county. At
Spring Hill the boys just walked
up and registered without any
demonstration of any kind, not
even a flag. 1t seems that our
people do not want to violate the
laws of our land.

nifty organized Sunday School

Mr. Sanders, of Corinth, Miss,
representative of the American
Snuff Co., and Chas Miller, Of
Golden, Miss, stopped over one
night last week in this community
1t seems thst the farmers of
Tishomingo are up against it just
now or a majority of them are.
Crops late, very grassy, very
poor stand of cotton and in most
cases labor is very scarce. There
seems to be a shortage of labor
among mill men, il short it seems
that more people are trying to
raise crops of their own than
usual. 1t is hoped that they will
succeed. Random.
