NO. 12. h ft' i f .JUL. w ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST Gathered at Random from Random Sources Thono peoplo who think Hayti 1b uubu, ia a iinng 01 tuo pnet or has no future, nro linblo to find that thoy have reckoned without their host. Homo times it is wiso not to talk too muoli, and we know several things wo aro not talking about just now, but time will tell. There is overy reason why Hayti should be a good town, and it will bo well for our reoplo to be come more united and cultivate u bet tor feeling, if thoy expect to recoivo the full benefit that ought to be theirs. Hayti boasts of the only macadam ized road in Pemiscot county. The silicaroad put down as an experiment, a distance of about half a mile, from the city to the Alfalfa Farm residence, Jng up under hard usage. This was, "perhaps, the- worst piece of road in the j county, and if this material will stand on this road its future is assured, and so far it is as solid und firm as a rock. The Alfalfa Farming Company are doing more to boost Hayti and the country around it more real hard down pushing, talking and advertising for Hayti than any one else has ever done, yet it is in a quiet way and but few peoplo are aware of their great efforts. We only mention this fact as a pointer, for wo feel that the people should know their friends. The Modern Woodmen had an in teresting meeting last Friday night, it being their annual installation.
