A GOOD DOG.

Early in the spring 1 wrote a few lines which was unfair to the dogs and I was glad it did not appear as since then I have made friends with a number of good dogs. It is true that there have been lots of mad dogs this summer north of the river, that 1t takes lots to feed them and that it is almost impossible to raise sheep and goats because of the worthless dogs, but all these things should not cause anyone to kill or dispose of a good dog, nor cause us to become ungrate- ful to the dogs for the many noble acts performed by them At the same time we must remember in the pres~ ent war in some positions one dog is

HOW TO PLANT WHEAT.

piow your ground as soon as con venient to give the weeds time to rot. After the first frost, but not before the latter part of October and up to the middle of November. Take q pail or tub of water according to amount of wheat you are going to SOW and put enough vitriol, or the stone, in it to color the water q little blue, and put your wheat in it for fifteen min utes, or until it begins to swell, then take it out and roll it in air-slaked lime. The late planting prevents the fly, the blue stone prevents smut and Inc lime fertilizes and sweetens the soil. The above advice is from C. J. C. Nelson and ] w Stuart, two of the best farmers in this county.

 Once l had neighbor away down near the gulf coast This neighbor had killed a man. He wanted to be sheriff of his county, so was trying to get up a reputation for bravery. There was a physician in the county site who was afraid to drive through the county without guard. He, too, had killed his man, so he employed my neighbor at good pay to go along with him and guard him, but my neighbor had to go about fifty miles to market. When he had to go he al- ways begged me to go along with him. On our return the last time l went with him I saw 8 man jump up with a gun and turn around in a confused sort of way then looked puzzled as though he did not know what to do. called my companions attention to him and he said that the fellow was the man who was threatening to kill him. Neither of Us saw him until we got to him and my companion did not see him until 1 called his attention to him. He was bad man all right, had killed about a dozen men, but We learned afterward that he had tanked up on whiskey to get the proper cour- age for this job, gone to sleep and when we came by seeing two instead of one man, not being fully awake, he was afraid it was too big a job for him. After this experience with brave @ men have about concluded that the game is hardly worth the candle.

The first person saw was Shep, who was playing with Flossie, the only one of her pups she has ever been permitted to keep. She was determined to bite me. possibly because she had read the item but as the paper containing it had not been received I concluded it was because she was afraid 1 was after Flossie. The folks said she was never unfrienIy to strangers until lately, and they sup posed it was all because she was afraid some of them would carry off Flossie. l made friends with her be- fore leaving as well as with the chil- dren, the white rabbit and the pretty calf MT.
