by Mr. Slaten.
The writer was at Malakog (sic) on Saturday evening. Town was all alive, the merchants all smiling and the farmers loading their
wagons with groceries and implements.A. S. Tanner
Our old cotton buyer and friend is afflicted with rheumatism.
I will ask all the farmers to pick some pretty dry days and fire the woods; it will make the range better, destroy ticks and thousands
of other insects. If you remember last spring grasshoppers came out of the woods. If the woods are not burnt more than they have
been those insects are going to give us trouble.
Hurry for better roads in some sort of way for they are bad now.
The Farmer.
