Tufts, of Medford, who was formerly a resident of Somerville, has spent a great deal of money in the past few years in establishing a village, with all the progressive ideas of a live New England community, in the pine region of North Carolina. "Pinehurst,"' as Mr. Tufts has named the village, all of which he owns, comprises a large modern hotel, with every conceivable convenience; a "Casino," or boarding-house, equally comfortable, but less fashionable, per haps ; about forty cottages, fitted with electric lights, running water, and other modern conveniences; a new village hall for entertainments and church services, stores, and a post-otlice ; a schoolhouse with an up-to-date northern teacher, a circulating library, an extensive nurs ery tilled with a great variety of trees, shrubs, plants, flowers, and fruits, 50, 000 of the trees and shrubs having been brought from abroad; a complete system of water works, a sewerage system, a power station furnishing besides electric lights the motive power for a private line of electric cars running for six miles from the railway station at Southern Pines to Pinehurst, the whole village having been beautifully laid out and adorned by Olmsted, Olmsted & Eliot. Altogether Mr. Tufts bought 5,000 acres of land for the purposes of his village, which has already grown so that it occupies 100 acres of it. No land or houses have been, or will be, sold, the place being designed to afford rest and recuperation for those who need the benefits of a Southern climate, at prices which, while they are high enough to cover necessary expenses, are still so low as to make the enterprise one of practical philanthropy. The latest addition at Pinehurst is a bright weekly newspaper, Tiik Pine hurst Outlook, published by F. T. Spinney, formerly postmaster of Med ford, and ably edited by Arthur II. Spinney, recently of Portsmouth, N. II. It is an attractive, small quarto, printed with new type on fine paper, and illus trated with half-tone pictures, showing the attractions of Pinehurst and vicinity. In a word, the paper and the place match each other perfectly, and in both New Englanders should take more than ordi nary interest. Somerville (Mass.) Journal. Anecdote of Rev. B. A. Goodridge. The following anecdote is related of the Kev. 15. A. Goodridge, who formerly edited the Pine Knot at Southern Pines. Like many children in Puritan, New Eng land, his mother had taught him to duti fully say, when asked whom he loved best, "God first, and mama next." "One of his greatest likes at the table was to matoes. While enjoying them one day, when about two and one-half years old, he suddenly exclaimed: "Mama, I love "matoes best I do Dod.' We have good reason to believe his taste has since undergone a change. "Gentlemen," wrote the editor of the Hoomville Terror, "the Klondike fever has hit this community hard. Please send me at once, by express, four pounds of cap Ks anil the same amount of lower-case ks. Can't get this paper out till they come." Chicayn Tribune. T HE HOLLY INN, S A Pinehurst, N.

C Dr. Benbow's Opinion of Pinehurst. Editor Pinehurst Outlook: Dear Sir, I take pleasure in re ferring to my late visit to Pinehurst one of the most complete ideal winter resorts anywhere to be found. The soil and sub soil furnish dry walks even when rain is falling ; the more it rains the tinner the ground. Then to nature all the comforts are so lavishly supplied one could hardly suggest additions. I desire especially to express my gratification in visiting the farm and dairy, for no department is more essen tial. With plenty of milk all things good and pleasing can be placed upon the table ; without it nothing can be proper ly prepared except bacon and greens. The cows look well and are fed on the best, consisting of corn ensilage, wheat bran, cotton seed meal and dry pea vines. No better food for cattle can be found anywhere, and your beautiful, broad acres have produced an abundance, all of which has been properly cared for. 1 congratulate you not only for the ideas but for the careful management. Your land is especially suited to the growth of corn for ensilage, pea vines for hay and rye for green feed, and under the system I found there I am sure each year will show increased crops, and, of course, milk products. Only prudent use of a large outlay of money could show such strides in so short a time. May the good work on, for nothing is so educating as object lessons, success and profit. Dr. W. C. Ben-bow.
