PARROT PARAGRAPHS.

A large party of Parrott's fishermen
anglers, | should say, for the party
is composed of ladies and men-mo-
tored to Dead Lakes Monday, where
they will spend the week in search OF
the finny tribe. They anticipate great
fun and fine sport. We wish for them
the very best of luck, and hope they
will remember the less fortunate and
send lot OF fish home.
Only Three Weeks Without Rain
On account of the continued rain
and cold the crops in this section are
very small and backward and very
poor stand One farmer who has kept
tally on the weather says that only
three times since the first of January
has he been able to work a whole
week without stopping on account OF
rain. A good many farmers who have
never used poison for weevils before
will use it this year. Some have al
ready started to putting 1t on the
Young cotton plants, as they realize
something must be done to keep the
boil weevil in check.
Ran Over by Truck.
Mr. Arthur Kennedy, who has been
in the habit OF stopping every alter
noon and taking his little boy, his lit
tie daughter, Clarice James, and
one or two of their little friends tor a
ride stopped as usual Monday alter
noon. Two children got in the truck
and Clarice stood OH the running
board. Mr.. Kennedy held her securely
until it became necessary for him to
shift the gears. When he released his
grip the child fell under the heavy
truck and one wheel passed over both
OF her legs. In some miraculous way
no bones were broken, to the delight
of all She will soon be all right.
