Mrs. Jas. W. Havercamp has bought
from Vessel & Alexander six acres of
their farm southeast of town, said six
acres being cut off by the Jarnigan
road from the main farm and being on
the south side of that road and near the
J. X. Boyd home place. Mr.. Raver-
camp several months ago bought from
w. S. Latta his place just east of the
land mentioned, and he and Mrs. Hav-
ercamp are living at the Boyd place. 1t
is learned by The Falcon that Mrs.
Havercamp will at an early date build
a residence on the recently purchased

The editor ordered last week Grim
son clover seed to SOW his acre cotton
field next month. The seed will be
sowed broadcast and narrowed in light

the cotton is picked there should be the

when it is suitable) and again in the
spring, till the clover heads out and
then it will be turn d under for a fer
tilizing crop and the land planted to
corn. We have found this one of the
best, easiest and cheapest ways Of en-
riching land, as the pasturage pays
for all the expense and trouble. Sew
eral acres of land now in corn will be
handled in much the same way

do. Every part Of the county we bear
from there is the severest need of rain !
if any part of the crop is to be expect |

is holding its own remarkably well, but |
corn, hay, sorghum, in fact everything |
except cotton has suffered great loss
with the severe heat and drowth and
the condition grows worse every day
we are without rain. Pastures, too,
are suffering and many reports of |
