I hope you liad a plenty of good dry wood It was more than we had. It may sleet and the wind blow, but our school continues large. I believe the peuple that have been practicing tu marry have all got married, at last. If. ever I get that far on. I think that 1 would want it real from the be ginning. IL' 1 were you and you --werer'?rer^id were to ask a girl to be your belter-half, and she were to say to you that "You scare me !" what would you uoi 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, bul. I tell you that il there are any more scaring go ing on it will be her, for I be lieve that it is unlawful to scare women. '. j ric hope that otu farmers iii this cou.nly wi!' wot go wibi ovei . -;rnton tin:' ye?r, i-.tr where Uteri . arc:as manv childi on ns there is kn ajar!boro n ? need loti rd li and hoioiiijand ii you dun i believe we have it, come up this summer when the days get long and hot to see pa. 1 know that he would be glad to entertain you for awhile, then, I believe you will say "yam, that am old ham." While we love money, we "also love to have "money's worth" the yetti- round. We can't do it it* we plant all cotton and, as labor is scarce, if we plant much cotton it will take the most of our time in the neld for Mr. h. D. Stubbs says that it takes about thirteen months of the year to make and gather a cotton croi), while in 0 weeks he can make a corn crop. Weare glad to say that Mr. B. I. Liles is much better. Mr. 13. E. Moorestill has some of that guano that he guarantees "no grow, ho pay " So, boys, if you want to make big crops on' a little place, come up and get some of the red stuff that makes the cotton grow. A SCHOOL BOY. February 2, 1004. Miracles anti Appetite. The minister of a kirk in a rather remote country parish in Scotland with his ruling elder went a long journey for the "catechising" of au old parish ioner. The walk was long and arduous, and when they arrived at their destination I heir appe tites, to say t he least, were some what "keen," and they did jus tice to the meal wfcieh the old parishioner offered ll)em. "Now Janet," said the minister, when he and his companion hud for awhile finished eating, "we will begin the serious business. Do you remember the text for last Sunday?" "Ay, I mind it weil," replied .Janet; "il was about (he miracle of the loaves and the li hes." "And have you ponder ed the subject during the week Janet?" continued the minister. "Deed have 1, .sir," said the woman; and Fin thinkin' the noo that if you and the elder had been there they wadna* have taken up sae many basket ? fuis.'"-'V. C. A Chilli co For Bargains.

Mr. Editor-I will send yju a few lines ?'rom this corner, as the now year has come in and ail who have decided to work this year have gone at ir. The cotton is not all picked yet, but the stalk cutters are running wheie it has been picked. It looks as if the sower will almost overtake the reapers io getting in the new colton crop. I saw that done for the first time the past year in the bustling town ol Clio. One man was cutting oats with a mower, (the oats we e blown down) au other was laying oil lands and sow ing peas; and just beyond them then was another man running a reapei and binder. This was on the lut now owued by Mr. H. J. Bennett, and Mr. A. J Huestess waa present at the lime. The people of our section have changed places considerably. Many have moved away and others have moved in ami taken their places, and ?ll appear to be suited. Labor ii scaroe ard ba.nl to get for wages they all want farms. There are some who do not know what they are going (o do yd. but I guess these will be c 'me planters later on. I see signs of a new saw mill going into operation nearby soon, which will give lumber to some who dislike to haul it so far. Well, Mr. Editor, I do not know what lo 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 the squire to move his business to a railroad tow n and that town will be D-, and in that case, if he should marry .of course he would board tho train and take a tour, and would have no "infair, and I would be left.

Thc victims of the recent bliz zard that swept over the northern portion of that state, killing thou sands of lambs and a number ot cal tie, are now being found with the passing of the triow. In near ly every ca6e the victims wore 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, whee sole friend, so far aa known, was a handsome shepherd dog which he had raised from a puppy. This dog could do almost everything except talk. When Shep, aa he was cialled ilraggou* himself into ihn little sho?p town ot Shelby, with tun of his lega frozen, thc atc pf^ Flu ruber wan kuuv.u. Ii ['WffH!'U8?lusi3 tb prosecute a search : him without the ?ii<i ot' the dog, and as the animal was, ap parently, too disabled" to make another move, it was proposed to wait Beveraldays before searching for the body of the missing man. Shep, in spite of his condition, waa ready to lead the party, how ever, and although the progress was slow and painful over tho snow-covered hills and vales, the faithful dog led the party to the hotly of his master. Crouching beside tho 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. Don't You Love Flowers ? It so, and you want some pretty pots of all sizes in which to place them, call at the Hardware Btore and you can be suited.

The foundation Bhould he dug eighteen to twenty-four Inches or until gravel Is reached. Where thls%is not possible the lower two feet should be tilled lu with large stones, on top of which are placed smuller atones nud gravel, until a smooth bot tom ls obtained. For a house twelve feet square a frame of 8 hy 8 Inch timbers is placed on thc brick or stone foundation for the base. A similar square frame ls made for the pintes, and this is sup ported nt the four corners with 8 by 8 Inch posts eight feet long and hy two or three 2 bj' S Inch studs on each side, with extra ones for door posts on tho front side. The outside is covered with rough pine boards, thc cracks be tween thu boards being covered with battens. Inch boards line the Inside up to the pintos, and the space be tween is lilied in with snwdust. The cheapest torin of roof is made of inch boards, with batten pieces over the ?rnck?, anti ls supported by three horl Eontal strips on each side laid across rafters. The rafters are scantling bev eled and nailed together at thc top and set into or spiked to the plates. Half to two-thirds of the middle of the ridge ls cut out. leaving ait opening three to live Inches wide, which ls covered by a cap raised several inches from the roof to permit of ventilation, but wide enough ;o prevent iain getting in.

Often there .re waste timbers or boards about the farm which can be made to answer very well. To protect the house from the bent ing rays of the sun it ls best to build under the shade of a large tree or on the north side of some larger building. Its effectiveness in keeping ice will thus be grejrtly increased. The Tide Toward New England. At the Massachusetts agricultural boord meeting Dr. G. M. Twt?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 an; multiply ing rapidly, here ls to be the great dis tributing center for manufactured products, here are the acres which will yield larger crops than prairie or plan tation, and here a climate adapted lo the growing of a 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 und worker have before them t^he greatest opportunity of their lives.
