Annual Inspection.
The Qary Watte Guards, Capt. Lock
wood, tho only military. organization
in this county, will be inspected by
Adjutant and Inspector General Watts,
on Saturday afternoon next, at 3:30
o'clock, at the New Prospect School
House, near Boyds Cross Roads. The
public are invited to be present, espe
cially the ladies. Gon. Watts and
Sheriff McOravy are expected to do
liver speeches on tho occasion.
To The Ladles.
Now is the time to look well after
your strawberries. By tho 15th of No
vember the plants should be in the
ground. Select a loamy soil. Manure
very highly and when you think you
have been generous add more. Pre
pare deeply and pulveriso thoroughly.
Eighteen inches In rows two feet apart.
Three hundred plants will supply an
ordinary family. Got tho largest
varieties and this will save time in
gathering^ It is the surest of our fruit
crops. If Bryan gotb in we will have
sugar free. McKinloy also is friendly
to sugar. Think of great oval red
luscious borries smothered in cream
about tho ides of April By the 10th
of Decomber mulch but not deoply
with partially rotted loaves of last
wintor.
Our Game.
In a previous issue, wo called atten
tion incidentally to our game laws In
connection with Col. Woodward's effort
to stock his county with tho Phoasant.
Tho quail, our socallod partridgo, is
native here and notwi< standing bad
treatment and dostri o practices
manages to survive It tho greatest
luxury our farmers onio>-?it is one at
thoir doors, if they take stops to pro
teot tho birds. Besides nil 6mall birds
to dostroy insects are of great concorn
to farmers and tho?o who grow treos.
The game cannot bo preserved, nor tho
small birds, oxcopt by onforcing the
laws. This will not bo done by indiv
iduals. What Is ovory body's business
Is nobody's business. We suggest
therefore that tho gunners and sports
men with tho farmers form clubs In
every neighborhood In the connty tor
the purpose of enforcing the game
laws of tho State. It will help tho
sportsmen because game will soon be
plentiful. Tho landowner will readily
entor Into the arrangemont and will
be glad to have his friends pursue the
f;amo on his grounds?but he would
iko to havo tho selection of his frionds.
In a fow years the woods would bo full
of turkeys and no moro complaint of
insoots destroying our corn and fruit
troos.
A nice all wool red ilannol at only
124 cents at Jamlcson's.
To see our lino of capos and jackets
means a purchase. Capos from $1 25
up to $15.00 at Jamlcson's.
A solid button 3hoe for ladies for
only 75 cents worth $1 00.
Seo our all wool filling home made
jeans for only 22* cents at Jamieson's.
To Masonic Brethren.
According to tho action of tho Grand

tion. Lodgo dues to that body must
be paid ten days before tho annual
communication. Mombers of Wallace
Lodge, which meets 31st instant will
please come prepared to squaro thoir

Hall's Catarrh pure is tlio only
positive cure inown to the medi

stitutional treatment. Hull's
Catarrh euro is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and

thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving Iho pa
