Clint Brown and Leslie Miller, who farmed the old George Brown place in Barkley township, were quick to come out with a larger clover seed yield than Ehrhardt Wuepthner had. They raised 10 acres of clover that threshed out 44 bushels and 50 pounds of seed, or bushels to the acre. Next. The sale and distribution of the whisky sahdwich is the latest method in the state of Alabama. Loaves of bread, cut and arranged like oyster sandwiches, are sold over the counters in lunchrooms presumably operated for that purpose, a bottle of whisky being cleverly arranged between the layers of the bread. . The condition of Lyman Barce, who suffered a paralytic stroke a few days ago, is very much improved, and it is now thought probable that he will recover from the same. He is now able to move the limbs affected and his speech has also improved. His daughter, Mr*. Chas. Michaels, of Oxford, who was here on account of his condition, returned to her home today.
