EAST MISSISSIPPI HMTirh and WEST ALABAMA MJK LA Hslbert An American Girl. a On Thanksgiving day there was a general hog killing throughout east Mississippi and west Ala bama and some fine hogs were slaughtered. Most ot the farm ers of this section have for several when Miss Evie, his lovely young daughter, was married to Mr. T. u. uivmgs, a popular . young farmer, of the Rye neighborhood. A host of friends, including this Bureau, join in wishing their path years made enough meat for their i through life may be strewn with flowers of blessings and that no trouble will meet them on their way. We regret to report Miss Janie Groves quite sick. -n . 1 mm m rne estimaoie wire 01 our es teemed friend, Cass West, who has been sick for quite awhile, we are sorry to learn is no better. Mr. J. F. Kolb, of Union county, Miss., an oia uaieaonia dov. is visiting relatives and friends in and around his old home. We are glad to welcome Frank back and hope his stay will be a pleas ant one. Mr. John Evans, of Border Springs, left last week on a busi ness trip to Tuscaloosa. Mr Evans is acting as advertising agent for the Caledonia Soap Co. Mrs J as. W. Dodson of Border Springs, visited her daughter, Mrs. J. C. Swanzy, at Elbethell last Wednesday. "T1 1 rnanKSfriving exercises were held at Woodlawn last Thursday, and thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended. Dinner was served on the ground and the Rev. Gal- cerin of Caledonia was the orator of the occasion. Mr. and Mrs D. M. Wood of Flinthill, spent Sunday pleasant ly with Mr. and Mrs. Jas. W. Dodson. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Smith of Flinthill, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Sam Darnell in Cale donia. Mrs. A. R. Ege-er and her laughter, Miss Pearl, went to Columbus on a shopping expedi tion Saturday. Mr. Guy Jameson of West Point, spent Thanksgiving Day with his parents in Caledonia. The infant of Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Smith of Mayhew, died on Sun. aay tne zotn uit , ana wa3 in- own use but this, year they have made more than ever and a nice lot of east Mississippi and west Alabama hams will be put on the market in Columbus. Mrs. D. M. Wood, of Flinthill, has for several years put up sausage enough to do her family from one hog kill ing time to the next and it seems as though all of our farmers' wive3 could do the same. Mrs. AVood puts her sausage up in fruit jars, first frying the meat and putting in the jars covers with the grease that was used in frying. If there is not enough to cover the meat heat fresh lard to a frying stage and pour in enough to cover. Meat canned in this way will be as fresh next summer as when fried. At these hog killings there is often held a family reunion. One of these enjoyable affairs occurred at the home of Mr. Fulton Partain on Thursday when the young folk gathered in, killed the hogs, made the sausage, dried the lard and made crackling bread. Sweet, happy home! No place like home on the farm in east Mississippi and west Alabama. Mr. Henry Watson, of Clay county, has his eye on this sec tion. While others are investing their money in town property Mr. Watson is investing his in farm ing lands in northeast Lowndes. Mr. Watson must have faith in the railroad coming this way. It is reported that he wants to in vest $150,000 in land in the Cale-! donia section. Whether the rail road is built or not this is the ideal farming country of the state. Mr. Sam Dodson, better known as Sheriff Dodson. has opened a cotton market on Seedtick road and is offering 11c and telling the farmers to take no less from any buyer. He is paying 35c for eggs and expects to sell them in Co lumbus for Christmas at 50c. Last Sunday at two o'clock p. m., near New Salem, at the home of Mr. Nealy Kolb, Miss Nora Cook was married to Mr. Robert Adair, Rev. J. A. Egger officiat ing. The bride is the sister of Messrs. John and Tom Cook, a young lady of many charms and graces; the groom is a prosperous young farmer of Monroe county. The marriage was witnessed by a ' large number of admiring friends who join this Bureau in wishing the young couple a long life of unalloyed happiness. Mr. C. E. West, of Flinthill, is three lengths ahead in potato raising. He raised this year on three-fourths of an acre 215 bushels. At 40 cents a bushel the crop would bring S86 or $114. G5 an acre. Could King Cotton beat this ? The Caledonia lodge A. F. & A. M. on last Saturday held an in teresting meeting. Mr. C. E. West, of Flinthilli was elected Worshipful Master, Mr. E. O. Harper, Senior Warden, Mr. R. A. Kilburn, Jun. Warden, and J.: L. Egger, Secretary. This lodge continues to do business. Sev eral new applications are before the lodge and three or four candi dates under making. Mrs. John Darnell, who was re ported in last week's paper as being quite sick at Mrs. Jern igan's, was well enough to return to her home in Caledonia last Tuesday and is rapidly improving. There is an epidemic among the young people of east Mississippi and west Alabama, Every few days we hear of a runaway couple getting tied up in Columbus and two or three a day getting the knot tied at their respective homes. Last Sunday evening a new case broke out in tile home Kaufman Bros.
