Some Fine Tobacco. Mr. Alex. Madry brought to our office Friday a bundle of his first curing of tobacco. It is a very pret ty sample. It shows a plenty of life and body and was a most excel lent cure.

How anxious we all are to see our post office in larger and better quar ters. This section experienced quite a wind and rain storm late Sasurday afternoon. We have had root-wetting rains the past week and the crops are cer tainly growing. There is still a plenty of work that can be done here towards breaking up this whiskey selling. We are told that it costs less to buy a screen door than to get sick and lay off for a month. The work of tearing down the wires and poles of the old telephone exchange is about completed. We still have reports that the crops are growing, especially is this true of cotton and young corn. Mr. J. S. Coleman has recently im proved the appearance of his resi dence by adding on a nice front. We would be glad to receive for publication reports of all the social entertainments among our young people.

Our new telepone exchange is quite an up-to-date thing in every re spect and it is now a pleasure (ex cept for finding the numbers) to use the phone. Last Friday and Saturday are con sidered the warmest days of the summer. The heat and oppression was 'almost unbearable. This hot wave spread over the entire country.
