Mr Wiggins, who was fined $t0 and costs at the recent trial. kava, was unable to pay the money at the required time.

The editor of the Clinton New Bra gives its rural readers a little advicoon road mak- ing. It says; -,"Go in almost any direction ',out of town, and a pile of grave! will be "'mad in the middle of the road, not even "spread out. It would not be ranch extra work to have the gravel spread when put eon, and batter roads at a (mason of the year ""when they are particularly desirable, would ""ba the result. Our confrere's advice, we fear, would not improve the roads, If the gravel were spread oyer the road it would be invisible by fall. but when itis placed in the center, bas time to settle. and when the muddy roads come about, It serves as a solid and dry foundation for heavy teaming. It don't hurt the sides of the road to drive there ; on the contrary it serves fol grading purposes, causing the crntr•e to beoome higher and more suitable for the off -threw of water. A reader writes: -Having been upon a rambling excursion throughout the County, I thoagbt it would not be out of place to furnish the readers of the Texas with an ao: ount of the aoreage sown with fall wheat, and the prospects of an abundant crop iu 1891 if the winter proves favorable. I find on the whole a muph larger acreage sown this fallthan any of the five previousyears. and by all appearances the farmers are beginning to realize what is a fact, that they will have to pay more attention to under- draming and a better method of farming to insure a success in growing and raising good and remunerative crops. The cereal, as a whole, looks splendid, and by all ap- pearances time orop was got in in a good time and the laud properly prepared; in fact I might say tbat I have travelled a good deal the last five years, and I never saw a better show of fall wheat and as large an acreage sown as there is at the present time.
