Not only did he render service

but the deceased has been an
active, useful citizen in times of
peace. In the earlier years of his
life, be for ?J he was incapacitated
by the weight of years, he wa6
ever ready with a willing haud to
to aid in those things that con
tributed to the well-bo-iug of his
neighbors, his community and
county.
The deceased was popular with
all ages and.classes. Who did not

The epri?g days will soou be
here, and why not every house
wife have a flower yard this year?
We hear much of of our city
friends having what they call
"city beautiful". It see.ns -to me
thatevtry home in our town and
couutry could have its "home
beau'iful". It is the duty of pa
rents to make home beautiful
beautiful in IOVH, beautiful ni
words, beautiful in kind deeds,
beautiful in spirit and beautiful
in flowers. We are like Sam Jones
iu one particular we "love reli
gion and flowers.
Every family in our town h ti s
had some one sick in it last week.
For six days did j'our correspond
ent tus8el with the grip and we
are not entirely loosed from it yet.
.^Our neighbor Mr. F. B. Thomas
is still on the eick list.
Our teac'.iers were both eick
last week, also many of their pu
pils, so our Behool was suspended
for several days.
Some of our people sold their
cotton last week, eight can te being
the price. We have on-* en tire crop
yet-two baleB-which we are
.holding for teu and a half cent9
per pound. We could have sold
at one time for ten cents. We
want the half cent for interest.
^v?fcskavo 8ome_ iajyperjs^in^our
communityTKat raise their own
meat and corn at home and these
farmers are making money. An
experienced Missouri corn grow
er says that when a crop of sixty
bushels to che acre is raised the
corn coBts thirteen cents a bushel
to produce it; for fifty bushels it
is fifteen cents; for forty bushels
eighteen cents; for thirty-five
bushels twenty-two cents and for
thirty bushels thirty cents. If thy
ahove ?B true,-au au d. experien
ced corn farmer iu Kentucky says
the figures "are not out of the
way", there is no excuse for our
farmers having their corn shipped
to them from the west.
Last Saturday Mr. John Bus
say; sou of the late D. C. Bussey,
Si -, was killed by a freight train
uear his home at Evans on the
C. W. C. R. R. Mr. Bussey was in
the employ of C. W. O. R. R. aB
section master, and was on his
car with a squad of hands. An
extra freight train, that Mr. Bus
sey knew nothing of ran over him.
Mr. Bussey was very popular with
the road officials, and was regard
ed aa one of their very best men.
He was a member of the Woodman
of the world. Mr. Bussey leaves a
wife, three children, a mother,
three brothers and two tisters,
audahostof friends to mourn
his loss. He was buried at Red
