We have had stormy weather for a week down in our country. Monday and Tuesday were beauties. Some of our citizens were badly in need of chop by the time the storm became less furious and hacl to get to work to get the roads fit for traffic at once. The attendance at school has been very low during the begin- ning of the week. Mr and Mrs John Hey Jr spent Sunday with the former parents. Sol Martin disposed of seven cattle atgood figures one day last week. A pleasant evening was spent at Joel Baechler's by a few the other night. The Messrs. 'Rennie have re- turned from Mitchell again, A mistake occured in our item of last weak. Instead of Rev. Mr, Sheulke officiating at the wedding we should of had Rev. Mr Yeager. George Campbell spent the end of last week with Mr. Stelck at Hills - green. The United States Departmnut of Agriculture' has boon carrying on the work of introducing tea. cul- ture in the United States. Experi- ments conducted at Pinehurst Suinmerviile, S. C., in co-operation with Dr: Charles U. Sheparrd have yielded interesting results. Dr. Shephar now has at his place about 100 acres iu tea gardens. His fac- tory is well equipped., for carrying on the work on a commercial seal; and for accurate scientific exper- iments. The yield of tea in Dr. Shepherd's last year was 4,500 pounds for 1902, there were about 9, 000 pounds of marketable tea. Some of the gardens' have proven very prolific and profitable Awhile others have given very slight ;yields of tea of pure quality, A tea farm is soon to secured land that coign be secured, Whether or not tea growing in this country can be made a commercial success will depend in a large measure .upon the most rigid attention to the details of field and factory work. o HI A.

Short of being a total abstain, er, he is a dangerous .aLlifnital •and knows it. No •wonder • that these who give special attention to the ( effects of the drink habit, cry out -against. it passionately, , its ravages are to be seen in all grades of life. Women as well as Hien are its victims. It ruins countless homes of happiness. It deprives children of rightful joys and cheats- them of their chances in life, No man's childhood was spent in a drunkeu 11(011e, no matter how long he may live, can never shake off the meum- ory of the black misery of those `years that should hate been his brightest. • Drink is the master curse of phis country, as of any I other in chrisendoin. It spreads phiysical disease mental incapacity I anb moral blight. It degrades the homes of the rich and sends squalor. want and bestiality into the homes of the poor. It rots out the Man- i trod of men and the womanhood of women. Every intelligent I agency exerting itself to lesson the drink evil desires the sympatey and eneouragzuent of all who wish well to t• heir kind. It is easy .to be critical of zeal,but too much zeal is incomparably nobler than too little. This country needs a temperance revival—the popular pledge signing and a revivification of the societies :devoted to total -abstinence and ardent missionary work for member;., and worthy of their religious energies.

The New York Coal Situation, N. Y. Times of Friday. By those hest informed as to the situation and the outlook this (speculative ) condition of affairs is not expected to last much if any beyond the 15th of jannary. Con- servative dealers are already mani- festing a good deal of caution in making purchases. They recognize the fact that this is as market liable to sudden and possibly extreme fincnations, and are not disposed to handle unleli independent coal for the reason that they see a very good chance of finding the purehase unprofitable if not sold immediato- ly. The present scale of retail prices cannot be sustained for the reason that the people cannot afford to maintain a normal consumption and arel earning to economize more and more closely. January premises to be a month of maximum pro- duction, probably with five millions of tons. All the northern waterways are closed. and the urea of practicable distribution is)ro- portionately restricted. More company coal will be available for New Wills 'than hitherto, and if those who are not agents of the indepeziendent operations stop buy- ing from them, their price will drop to or very close to rho company The Big hardware and Harness House. price. • It requires no great intell- igence to discover that the indepen- dent operators are slaking the mistake of their present policy.
