  Twenty dollars per ton for cotton seed is being paid here by the Oak Grove

Why not bring your cotton, etc., to Oak Grove where you will get the best 
prices.

  This is the time of the year when we all need cash, but at the same time we 
believe the motto, " Live and Let Live, " so those who owe The Gazette and 
cannot spare the cash, we will say that we are disposed to accept anything we 
can use from the farm, such as corn, syrup, chickens, eggs, wood, butter, hay 
or any old thing we can eat or feed to our stock.  Don't forget us when you 
come to town.

with "that smile that won't come off."  He was inquiring for the census taker, 
stating that the population of Oak Grove had been increased and he desired to 
have it shown immediately upon the Census report.  Sam say it is a most 
promising 8 pound boy.  The mother and son are doing nicely and the attending 
physican gives the encouraging report, that with proper care Mr. Norsworthy 
will speedily recover from his "son-stroke."
