AN OILY OH, WFH.

There are a number of oil wells in the county bored for oil, but you can't get enough oil out of them to make greasy spot on a white hand
 kerchief, but l again visited Mrs. Lewelwyn's we'll, which was drilled for water and found enough oil in it to even oil the earth. When the oil was first discovered 1 did not think 1t oil, but 1t is the real genuine article now, which she draws from the we'll. When the last, which was from the top of the bucket, ran out on the ground, 1t showed all those beautiful rainbow colors by which real oil is distinguished. It was not necessary to see that, for before then I could see genuine oil on top of the water as 1t ran from the bucket. This oil has been analysed and found to be rich in parafine and contains some six other ingredients, which makes it of very superior quality and the first of the kind to be discovered in Amer ica, though 1t has been found else where. A company has been organ ized and will go to drilling as soon as the rig can be placed on the ground. It is located at MartindaIe on R. F. D. No, 7, Little Rock.

also visited at V. K. Browns and got to the home of John White, Sr., a little after they had eaten dinner, but that did not prevent them from fur nishing me with a splendid meal. This is one of the places 1 cannot avoid happening on to just at meal times. It must be because they want me, for I am always treated most hos pitably.
 Late in the evening 1 got to the home of ". H. Kanady, on Fourche Bayor, near Panther Creek. MT. Kanady was born and raised in the county and is a son of Green Kanady, who IS now in very feeble health. MT. Kanady is a very interesting talker, and had many interesting narratives to relate of that section. It is a wild country around him. During the summer wolves caught thirty-nine goats for him. His son, Fay, could have told me of an interesting ex- perience while hunting the Saturday night before, but modesty, suppose, prevented. With bunch of men and boys they heard a lady panther scream, then her husband and a bunch of younger ones, and then they all screamed together, or rather gave a concert. My informant told me that the whole crowd, that is the men and boys and not the partners, re- membered 1t was their bed time, and went home. Another crowd, hearing the screams, thought it was lady in trouble and went to the home of J. J. White, where they imagined the sounds came from, to see what was distressing Mrs White and the girls, but found nothing wrong there. l suppose this family is travelling the country and 1 hope they will not fail to come by my place and sere- made me before departing.
 This reminds me that 1 would like to get a good hand, who understands fishing, hunting, Fording and improv- ing a new place to do such work for me through the remaining winter months at a reasonable price. Until l marry he would have to help with the cooking also.

T. C. Brown, Fred and Charley Knabe are near neighbors of MT. Kanady, and none of them can do without the Pulaskian. Nearby is the Rev. Avery, a Baptist preacher from Kentucky, who recently bought a farm and has a very interesting fam fly Then comes Henry Bland and Frank Knabe. Mir. Knabe has built the finest poultry house I have seen in the county. It is twenty by thirty feet and the lower portion of the south side is one solid string of win dows with six more near the roof. It is very tasty building He is also finishing a concrete building for storing sweet potatoes, canned goods and perishable vegetables, with basin in the center for water to set milk in.

This was my first trip to Mir. and Mrs. Prothro's since the death of Miss Edwina. Her sudden death was quite a shock to me, as the whole family has always been so healthy and happy that 1t was impossible for me to think of their home being in vaded by the dread visitor, Death.
 An apology is due the family for no notice of her death appearing in our columns by our editor. He was so busy at the time with the meeting of the State Press Association, State Fair and other matters, that it was un- intentionally omitted even after notes being taken for it. It will frequently happen in a newspaper office that mention is omitted of those nearest to the editor, because he thinks he can not forget them, and that is why this has happened. Mrs. Prothro is one of our oldest correspondents and boosters, and the least person in the world we would slight intentionally.
 Miss Edwina was charming, agreeable girl of fine manners and education, with host of friends. She was born December 8, 1902, and died

FRUIT TREE DELIVERIES
 FINISHED

My last date for delivering fruit trees was at Roland for Wednesday, November 30, but with the aid of my Ford l finished the day before. Our fruit trees were so much better this year than common that we have been compelled as rule to deliver trees one size larger than was ordered. That is, for two to three foot trees we had to furnish three to four and so on.
 am still selling trees, either for immediate delivery or for spring de- livery. Getting little ahead of my story l wish to say here that the more l see and learn about Pulaski county, the hrmer becomes my belief that 1t is in many respects a better fruit coun- try than Benton and Washington counties. In two important respects 1t Is better, there Is more successful fruit growing here than in those coun- lies without spraying. That is, some sections of our county are free of dis ease, and second, we can beat them on peaches and other fruits affected ad- yersely by severe cold weather. Third, we have cheaper land, and four, a better home market.
 Mir. W. H. Kanady told me of orchards lying out for years and grown up into wood again near Panthers' creek, with apple trees up to twenty-eight inches in diameter, from which his father ate fruit be- fore the Civil War, and peach trees about as old and twelve inches in diameter.
 The weather was very threatening, but l made the trip to Roland with Chas. E. Walderns, and returned

There are four young children at home yet in the Prothro home, being Miss Dorothy, who considers herself a young lady, which she is, and three small boys, Adolphus, Winston and Harold l remarked that 1 was go- ing to buy a steel trap to catch the rats eating up my yams. feel sorry for the old fellow 1 wrote about a while back, but he had to bring an other wife home with him and is now trying to feed another family off me, and l can't stand for 1t. Winston, the next youngest boy, told me that 1t was not necessary for me to buy a trap, that he had bought six and would loan me one, when 1 got ready to start 1 found he had put three of them in my car, so ] told him 1 would go halves with him on what I catch in them.

The Union and Mercan- tile Trust Co. donated the cash, from which prizes for the school children were paid at the Pinnacle Mountain Fair, and Miss Lawson had each of her pupils write the bank letter thanking it for the donation. I was privileged to read the letters. They were we'll written, in good business style, and were a credit to the school.

Track Track! Track! was the cry
that assailed the ears OF pedestrians

by the younger generation, who were
In search OF thrills and fun. The soft
wet snow that fell was just the right
consistency for packing and the fin
est sort OF coasting track was con-
trived by coasters after a few trips
down the hill.
