Spring
With the advent of spring all ma
ture seem to spring into life. Inc
trees that have been so dormant
through the winter months seem TO
vie with each other in presenting
their swelling buds to the shlhlns
sun. -,
The grass so green and VelVetry
seem to present a scene Oh rdle
beauty. The flowers that bloom Dy
the wayside seem to know the ap-
nroach of spring and lift their droo-
nv heads to kiss the morning sun
and shed q radiance that Is matcn,
less. Not only the trees, grass anu
flowers show their appreciation OIL
tbe approach of spring, but man. tne
greatest of all, sees the season !oI
work has arrived and put forth ms
hest efforts that his crops shaIl 10
in the ground on time. -
So we will find everywhere whe-
+bar from a business or tarmlns
standpoint the advent Of spring Puss
new life in everything. Ihe DiIuS
whose voices have been stlileu
through the desolate winter seem 10
not onlv get new life, but Durst
forth in the sweetest songs in praise
70 Him Who sends both the winter
and spring months to the WorIu d.
large. .so,n,o+ion
In a few weeks the transformauoni
will he complete. The trees VIII
nu+ on their new dress OF IeaVes'
the grass will become more lovely
the flowers that have been urVop-
inc will awaken from their steep
and mt forth a scene of matchless
beaufv. Nature will in every way
ssserf itself and will resurrect anu
hiring forth a panorama OF magnln-
cence. greater than ever seen De-
fore. l. o,.o,,,
The fields will soon begin to gro"
their crops, and will yield to man
who cultivates them a shower "
good things that bring INTO MS
treasury something that Will Keep
tba wolf from the door during tne
winter months. Hurrah for spring.

Soy Beans - oron
Sow beans seems to be the crop
that farmers can clean up some
ready money. The land in this sec
tion seems to be adapted IN ralslns
this very profitable crop. Many IaI
mers are clearing their land anu
getting ready to plant a large acre
see of these vegetables. Lima peans
and string beans will be grown tnls
year more than usual.
The demand for this class Oh can

matoes firmly fixed, the farmers
will be able to grow this crop at
profit.

Death of John p. Holland
The sudden death of John ?. HoI- 6
and which occurred at Milford on :
Thursday, March 20, casted a gloom
,ver this community-coming as II :
