| We are having fine spring weather
/ now and small grain is looking fine
| and we hope for bountiful yield.
Planting time has about arrived and
some of our farmers have their land
ready. while others are somewhat
backward, but we hope all will try to
make their hog and hominy at home,
and not depend on cotton too much.

Misses Ethel and Blanch McCartha
spent Saturday night at Mr.. J. A.
Crout's.
Most of the farmers of this COM
munity seem to be cutting the cotton
acreage about one-half, and thus re-
ducing the fertilizer considerably.
We think this would be wise plan
for the whole cotton belt.

New Orleans, March 20.-Physi-
clans at local hospital today decided
to furnish a complete record for medi-
cal journals Of the case Of Ben Hoel-
zel so, who died Saturday after liv-
ing &c hours with his heart exposed
to the eyes of the hospital surgeons.
While working in a local coffee
grinding plant Friday Hoelzels left
sleeve was caught in machine. His
arm was mangled and a piece of
flesh the size of a mans head was
torn from his breast, leaving his heart
exposed, the ribs directly over that
organ being torn away.
The fact that the injured man lived
&c hours after the accident is said by
physicians observing the case to be
one of the most remarkable ever re-
corded in local practice.
