valuable paper I find that ilierc has
been 110 report from (Jreenbrier for
some time. The farmers are through
gathering ami ginning last years cotion
crop. but there is a good deal of
evil son in iht- '-onntry. Several of our
farmers have been holding their cotten
hoping that the price would advance:
but the; will .-ell for a great
deal less than the cotton would have
sold for in the fall. The winter has
passed oil* verv pleasantly. There
were several entertainments given for
the benefit of some young ladies who
were visiting in the community. All
who attended seemed to enjoy themselves
very much. There have been
several new buildings erected during
the winter. Mr. T W lJufl'has moved
into his handsome residence. He has
al*o built three nice tennant houses on
his place. ' ('apt. J. K. Dcllcncy and
Mr. A rther Hays haver each erected a
large barn, and several nice cottages
for their hands to occupy. There arc
a great many other improvements in
this line, and the log hut. will soon be
a thing of the past in this community.
Comfortable houses will almost always
insure good labor. The farmers
arc very busy (or rather would like to
be) preparing for the coining crop.
They have been greatly thrown back
by the wet weather, (and still it rains.)
There lias been a pretty fair oat crop
sown, and more corn will be planted
than last year. Our farmers are beginning
to farm on the intensive system
and will use a great deal more
fertilizers thau last year. But few of
our farmers have sold any cotton seed
this setson, consequently they will
use tliein as a fertilizer. There will be
about live hundred tons of guano delivered
at lJockion.

the Englishman iirst at the horse: the i
American looks at both together. Our
countryman is quick to appreciate the
complimentary relations of both. It
is this bro-ul perspective that lead the
American to so prepare his medicine,
a complimentary mixture, une ingredient

| crease the prosperity of a country, has J
j and is being thoughly demonstrated |
in this part of Arkansas. The lirst
and only railroad that has yet penetrated
this county was completed last
July. Now to give you some idea of
, the wonderful change tiiis road has
brought about, 1 will lirst give a brief I
| description of that part of our county I
I through which the road runs.
i From the "Overflow Hills'* west of
Bayou Bartholomew, which in prehistoric
times was doubtless the western
banks of the great ever changing
Mississippi River, to the Chico County
line, a section ten miles wide, and ex-'
tending north and south, the entire I
length of the county, is an alluvial j
district. The soil is of a black >andy i
loam exceedingly feitile. The surface
while apparently level is sufficiently j
inundating to allow of successful:
| drainage. The ea??e with which this j
| soil is cultivated, and its adoption to j
I the rapid growth and production of i
j the greatest variety of fruits, vegetables j
and field crops, together with the;
geniality of the climate makes it one I
of the most magnificent farming dis
tricts to he found in the world. The ;
timber in this section h unexcelled i
either in quantify or quality. Along
the bayou there are extensive cypress j
1....O'.,..,!;,,.,- ltiilliiKK nf of l

the finest kind of building material,j
j ami away from those brakes, when the i
| sip-face is more elevated, I here are
} great fore>t of white oak. gam. hick-'
[on. walnut and many oilier varieties
I of valuable timber now in great de-;
maud in the manufacturing centers of
! the North and East. And yet with all |
I the natural resources and attractions!
I of this highly favored ?eciion, there
| had been scarcely a visible sign of pro- j
gress or development for many years j
I past. There was no demand for the :
timber because there was no way of j
getting the lumber 1o market. For
the same reason the farmer had but
little encouragement to increase his j
business, his only chance for shipping j
his cotton and other produce, and of
obtaining supplies, was by means of
boats on Bayou Bartholomew which
is only navigable about four or five
months in the year, and as a natural
consequence farming was carried o>i
in a slip shod way, and a spirit of
careless indifference seemed to prevail
everywhere.
Less than a year ago the const rue1

lion COUipilMY 111 llIUll HUIIV yj. 2lau'"o j
and laying' the track, of the now great;
Huston, Centra] Arkansas, and North- j
ern Railway reached this place, which j
was then only a field of cotton stalks, j
upon which s:ill hung' a scattering;
remnant of the previous years crop, j
llight in the midst of this field the !
constructing party commenced the
work of building a large and attractive
passenger and freight depot, and at
once the owner of the farm had ten
acres surveyed out in lots 40 by loO
feet which sold rapidly at $100 per lot.
The writer being the first to get. a deed
made to ;i lot and commenced building.
Since then so magical has been the
growth of the town, that strangers are
astonished to learn that it is ret but
little more than half a year old. There
arc now eight good business houses,
all crowded with goods and doing a j
lively business, representing' the
various branches of merchandise
from the Chinese bakery and confectionery
to the fancy dry doods and
no i'.n store. A large livery and feed
stable is doing an enviable business in
that line. But the most attractive
feature of the town, and the lirat that
claims ;ne attention of the visitor is a
large u-1 beautifully painted two and
a half story hotel lately completed a.id
Inrnis-tied in the most elegant and exquisit
style by Capt. \V. J. Caminack
itie lucky owner of the town c-iie.
Several handsome residences already j
gn.oi the town, and still the work of!
building goes on. The Mithtdists'
arc taking subscriptions for the purpose
of building a church this fiimmtr, j
a: d the African Baptist who are very j
strong here having a membership ofj
owr hundred in one church, are
geiting-ready to build a new church 1
that i? to cost about $3000.
The whites and the negroes have
ea< h a school in operation, and besides I
these the infant town boast? ot a lite- j
rary society, a Masjnic Lodge, with a !
1'nii- inrmlwrfhin. an<1 in ihc Henri
future will have a K. of P. Lodge. I
So much for t.'ie lown, which after all i
is but lhe outgrowth of the pu-h and j
enterprise that is g..i?g on in the {
country all around. The blowing of I
engines and the nuisf of machinery on
every hand, ?reat piks of staves and '
square timber along Ii-.c railroad track,:,
ami the many car loads of sawed lu:i?-1 j
ber that is being shipped to other and j
distant markets, furnishes undeniable !
proof of the rapid development of the
country. The timber alone on lands !
that could have been bought for $.3 !
and $10 per acre a year ago, is now j i
selling for $'Jo and upwards per acre.
The increase in t'r value of forming i
lands has i;-> ueen proportionally '
great, though in many places it has |!
more than doubled in value. More i
i i

and new housrS arc to be seen in ! ;
every direction, and a spirit of enter- j
prise and get there, seems to possess j .
all classes. In short this part of the |
moral vineyard is on a great boom ,
ju?t now, all caused by the building
of a railroad. More la er on.

SCROFULA
It is that impurity ir. the blood, which, accumulating
ic the glands of the neck, pro
duces unsightly lumps or swellings; which
causes painful running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which developes ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin of pimples, cancerous
growths, or the many other manifestations
usually ascribed to "humors;" which,
fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption
and death. Being the most ancient, it is the
most general of all diseases or affections, for
very few persons are entirely free from it.
"TIT CURED j
By taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, vrhich, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have faded, has
proven itself to be a potent and peculiar
medicine lor this disease. Some of these
cures are really wonderful. If you Suler from
scrofula, be sure to try Hood's Sarsaparilla.
"My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrofulous
sore neck from the time she was 22 months
old till she became six years of age. Lumps
formed in her neck, and one of them after
growing to the size of a pigeon's egg, became
a running sore for over three years. "We gave
her Hood's Sarsaparilla, when the lump and
all indications of scrofula entirely disappeared,
and now she seems to be a healthy
child." J. S. Carlile, Nauright, N. J.
