their future home. From forty
acres planted to cotton in Missis

ed only four bales. The boll
weevils took the other thirty-six.

that would be^ about enough for

the farmer always gets reward
for his labor.
Dr. J. L. Hare of Wynne came
over Tuesday, answering a con
sultation call in a case of serious
sickness. This gentleman is ac
tively engaged in doctoring, far
ming and banking—successful in
all. He says he would check up
a little and take life easier, as
his friends advise, but he likes
all his jobs so well that he can’t
decide upon which one to lay
down. Anyway, he is a good
farmer. He has in 400 acres
this year and says the plants
have recovered from the effects
of early adverse conditions and
now show prospects for a good
yield.
A Hearty Indorsement
The services at the Methodist

to the usual exercises of church
meetings, yet emphatically taught
throughout the great doctrine of

After performing the solemn
ceremony admitting three chil

brief account of his experiences
on his recent trip to the Confed
erate reunion and a visit with
his old home folk in the East,
which was very interesting, hu
morous in describing the quaint
folklore of the East, and touch
ingly pathetic in alluding to the
fast fading ranks of the old Con
federate soldiers.
Mr. Lark invited Dr. D. C.
Absher, who is in charge of the
campaign for better health in
Woodruff county, to explain to
the congregation the nature and
objects of his work. Dr. Absher
made a most convincing argu
ment showing that in the work
for health preservation “an ounce
of prevention is worth more than
a pound of cure,” and quoted
copiously from the Bible to prove
that “we are our brother’s keep
er in promoting the health of the
community. He appealed for the
co-operation of all and made a
good impression on his audience.
The pastor gave a most hearty
indorsement to Dr. Absher’s
work and closed the meeting
with an earnest prayer for its
success. _
