 The pillow. all delicately hlue and gold, beruffled and 6rnamented with hand-made, silken rosebuds of the pastel shades of a gossamer rainbow, arrived few days ago, coming with the personal card of the McCormacks.

Official notice has been given of the establishment of an agricultural de- partment by the Alabama, Tennessee and Northern railroad operating in western Alabama.

 Speaking of the department. John T. Cochrane, president, in letter to The Age-Herald, says:
 Our main object in establishing this department and putting capable men in charge of it is to join with the farmer not only in helping and encouraging him In the raising of crops but more especially in aiding him to market what he produces.
 "one way to do this Is to arrange for cooperative selling. or the get ting interested of buyers who, before the crops are planted, will guarantee to take a definite amount at the har- vest season. For, example, in the case of sweet potatoes or Irish potatoes, We hope to with the farmers aid, and by getting them to produce on the one side so many bushels of potatoes, get NAC poJ Sr ol lAtG OlhST Slue.f lO Iake off his hands when ripe definite number of bushels of potatoes at a specific price thereby putting both ends of the bargain in position to know what they can expect and in this way be justified in their plans ahead.
 Not only do we hope to, aid in the marketing of potatoes, but this same rule will apply to other products of the farm, and 1t may even be carried into an arrangement for the raising on the one hand, and purchase on the other. of cattle, hogs and sheep, for the raising of which there are won derful opportunities in every one of the five counties the A., T. l& N. oper- .ates through
