Mr. Editor, here I am again
We have had lots of cold and
gloomy weather. I hope you
hada plenty ol' good dry wood
It was more than we had. It
may sleet and the wind blow,
but our school continues large.
I believe the people that have

all got married at last. If ever
I get that far on. 1 think that 1
would want it real from the be
ginning. ICI were you and you
we?e ino, ?'t!\d were to ask a girl
to be your better-half, and she
were to say to you that "You
scare me !" what would you do i
Pa says for me to be quiet, that
it is "Leap Year," and that she
will be apt to want me to scare
her again, but I tell you that il
there are any more scaring go

we'also love to have "money's

can't do it if we plant all cotton

for Mr. L. D. Stubbs bays that
it lakes about thirteen months

a cotton crop, while in 0 weeks
he can make a corn crop.
We are glad to say that Mr.

Mr. B. E. Moorestill has some

Miracles and Appetite.
The minister of a kirk in n
rather remote country parish in
Scotland with his ruling elder
went a long journey for the
. "catechising" of an old paris Ii
ioner. The walk was long and
arduous, and when they arrived
at their destination their appe
tites, to say t he least, were some
what "keen," and they did jus
tice to .the-meal which thc old
parishioner offered iii em. "Now
Janet," said tho minister, when
he and Iiis companion had for
awhile finished eating, "we will
begin the serious business. Do
you remember the text for last
Sunday?" "Ay, I mind it. well,"
replied .Janet ; "it was about the
miracle of the loaves and the
ii hos." "And have yon ponder
ed tile subject, during the week
Janet?" continued the minister,
"Deed have I, sir," said the
woman; and I'm thinkin' the

DOTS FROM SWEAT SWAMP.
Mr. Editor-I ?ill eeud ym ft few
Hoes from this comer, as the new
year has come in and all who have
decided to work this year have gone
at ir.
The colton is not all pioked yet,
but the stalk cutters are running
wheio it has been pioked. It looks as
if the sower will almost overtake the
reapers io getting in the new cotton
crop.
1 saw that done for the first time
tho psst year in the hustling town ol
Clio. One man was cutting oats with
a mower, (the oats we e blown down)
an other was layiog off lands and sow
ing pens; and just beyond them then
was another man running a reaper
and binder. This was on tho lot now
owued by Mr. H. J. Dennett, and
Mr. A- J II lies tees was present at the
tim'1.
The people of our section have
changed places considerably. Mao)
have moved away and others have
moved in and taken their-places, and
all appear to bo suited. Labor it
Beare and In rd to get for wages
they all waot farms. There are some
who do not know what they are going
to do yd, but I guess these will be
come planters later on.
I see signs of a uew saw mill goiog
into operation nearby soon, which will
give lumber to some who dislike tn
haul it so fur.
Well, Mr. Editor, I do not know
what to write about further. The boys
it appears, have all about decided
not to marry soon. I hear nothing to
make me think I will get to eat tur
key-only an occasional rumor from
Wesley, and I have not banked on
that too much, for I look for tho squire
to move his business to a railroad
town and that town will be D-,
and in that case, if he should marry
,of course he would hoard the train
and take a tour, and would have no
"infair, and I would be left.

FAITHFUL TO DEATH
The Pioneer Preea, Minnesota,
prints the following incident which
occurred at Great Falls, Montana,
last spring.
Tito victima of the recent bliz
zard that swept over the northern
portion of that state, killing thou
sands of lambs and a number of
cattle, are now being found with
the passing of the snow. In near
ly every case the victims were
sheep herders who were caught in
the storm and frozen to death be
fore they could reach shelter. Al
most without exception these
sheep herders are men without
connections of any kind. One ot
the most pathetic cases that has
como to light is that of William
Plumber, an aged man, who'e solo
friend, so far as known, was a
handsome shepherd dog which he
had raised from a puppy. This
dog could do almost everything
except talk. When Shep, as he
was .eal led, dragged himself into;
tin little sheol) town ot Shelby,
wi th two of his Ifigs frozen, th? j
.it of.^Plkmber war known; 1> !
* ? h useless to prosecute a search'
loi him without the aid pf the j
tlog, and as the animal was, ap
parently, too disabled* to make
another move, it was proposed to
wait several days before searching
for the body of the missing mau.
Shep, in spite of his condition,
waa ready to lead the party, how
ever, and although the progress
was slow and painful over the
snow-covered hills and vales, the
faithful dog led the party to the
body of his master. Crouching
beside the frozen corpse the dog
worn almost to a shadow by the
hardships he had undergone, ut
tered a long, penetrating wail, and
then licking the cold face of his
master, expired. Plumber and
the dog were buried in the same
grave.

veulent size for tin ordinary farm. In
building care should be taken to secure
perfect drainage. The foundation
tdiould be dug eighteen to twenty-four
inches or until gravel Is reached. Where
thistis not possible thu lower two feet
should be Ulled in with largo stones,
on top of which aro placed smaller
stones and gravel, until n smooth bot
tom ls obtained.
Kor a house twelve feet square a
frame of 8 by S inch timbers is placed
on the brie!; or stone foundation for
the base. A similar square frame Is
uinde for thc plates, and this 13 sup
ported nt the four corners with 8 by 8
inch posts eight feet long and by two
or three 2 by 8 inch studs on each
side, with extra ones for door posts on
the front gide. The outside is covered
with rough pine boards, the cracks be
tween the boards being covered with
battens. Inch hoards line the inside
up to the plates, and the space be
tween is Ulled lu with sawdust. The
cheapest torin of roof ls made of inch
boards, with batten pieces over the
srarkti, und ls supported by three liorl
contnl strips on euell side laid ?eros?
rafters. The rafters are scantling bev

set Into or spiked to the plates. Half
to two-thirds of the middle of the ridge
ls cut out, leaving an opening three to
Uve Inches wide, which is covered by a
cap raised several inches from thc
roor to permit of ventilation, but wide
enough io prevent rain getting iii.
The doors are made of a single thick
ness of boards. Care should be taken
to have them tight so as not to permit
of circulation of air. To make them
more effective the space between the
door and-the boards placed on the In
side of thc door frame to prevent snw
dust or other packing material used
from fulling out can be padded with
Straw when the house is filled. The ex

depend largely on thc cost of material,
but should not exceed $20. Often there
are waste timbers or boards about the
farm which cnn be made lo answer

To protect the house from the beat

under the shade of n large tree or on
the north sldf of some larger building.
Its effectiveness in keeping ice will
thus be groirtly increased.
The Tide Toward New Enelond.
At the Massachusetts agricultural
board meeting Dr. G. M. Tw??chell pre
sented a very cheerful view of agricul
tural prospects. He believes that "the
outlook for New England agriculture
must be positive. Here are the mar
kets, here the industries are multiply
ing rnpldly, here ls to be the great dis
tributing center for manufactured
products, here are the acres which will
yield largar crops than prairie or plan
tation, and here a climate adapted to
the growing of n vast variety of food
for man and beast of a quality unex
celled upon the face of the earth. In
the constructive work for a more ag
gressive agriculture the student, pro
fessor and worker have before then?
\he greatest opportunity of their lives.
The conditions are favorable, the times
are auspicious, tho tide ls setting to
ward New England, and the currents
of thought uro centering here."
