Are Drying Up Montgomery county crops are very badly in need of rain and just at present are being damaged more by the drought than for some time The ground is as Iry as a bone and in nearly every Field dust can be easily shoveled jp bcart loads Grass is burning up and water in the Holds is jetting very low causing stockof all kinds to have to hustle to get anything to eat The harandJ- Ilts crop have both been harvest id and put away In the hay- Fields everything was cut weeds md IlIIIlod with that the crop is very poor and no good hay can be Found It is being retailed at from 22 to 27 per ton The oats crop is very inferior md while a considerable acreage was cut most of it was fullof weeds and will nlake very little feedand that too will be quite ommon The outlook is very poor for winter feed and farmers ire putting up everything that looks like it will make winter t provenderCorn tobacco also need rain fall badly The corn early planting which has all been laid by md is tasseling with well formed ears indicating a good yield is being daily damaged for want of moisture while the late planting is being stunted in its growth and will not make good corn Unless rain comes soon the early planting will dry up completely Some tobacco is in good shape but the larger part is al most a failure and without rainfall this week it looks like it will be an entire failure With all the rain that can possibly fall there are some fields of tobacco which will not be worth cuttimr at nil Stockof all kinds are not doing well on account of the drought in ninny sections uudns a whole Montgomery county is suffering more now for water than for the entire summer creeks and ponds are getting very low and in sonic instances absolutely dry with drinking water on some farms getting

for a moment consider seriously the request of the East Tennessee Telephone Company for a franchise in our city at a sum equivalent to a gift under the terms of which an increased rate over the one nw charged by the Old Kentucky Telephone and Telegraph Company can be exacted of the people we feel it our duty to the public to let the facts be known in order that no mistake may be made which might

heading U Half Service or Double Expanse we notice in the June issue of the Cosmopolitan magazine an argument in favor of the one telephone system plan made by the American Telephone and Telegraph

citizens particularly from thecountry speckm opposition to the crll5 Wt1 bifJ tSfjf geifthat the city erect some posts in the old grave yard stretchsome chins with rings in them and have this lot as a free hitching place It has nice shade is centrally located and would tie a far more desir able place There is no doubt that the plan of compelling one to pay j a livery bill every time one comes to the city even for a few minutes wiijwork hardship on many The custom of hitching at the Court house wall though an unsanitary one has long been in vogue and the complaint on the part of the country people is therefore not wholly without merit The cost of fitting the oldup grave yard property into a commo dious hitching lot would not he treat and we submit this suggestion to the city authorities as well as to our Business Mens Club with the hope that favorable action will shortly be taken upon it After reading the card of announcement of Henry T Duncan Jr as a candidatei on the Fusion Ticket

the Household The unpunctual guest is the ter ror of the hostess unless she has the means and inclination to cross the palm of each servant of the house with gold In that case a degree of laziness will be tolerated which if a member of the family were con corned would be met with threats of departure Not every procrastinating guest is rich however and when one of the impecunious or grudging ones arrives by a train later than the one upon which she was expected it is the signal for rebellion From the moment she enters the door un til her departure the mistress of the household is in a state of continual I uneasiness lest the delinquent shall not be well served or that a domes tic crisis will be precipitated Why I cold breakfasts and rooms not lone up promptly do not in time reveal to the procrastinators that theyare upsetting a household and demoralizing the routine of each servant is a question that has never been answered but when a hint is thrown out to them as to the inconvenience caused the reply is very apt to he Oh I dont mind me I if I can only have those last few forty winks I never think if breakfast is cold or not and the hostess can say no more But her
