question in his locality at the

serious to solve, as they are pay
ing $17.50 per ton for alfalfa.
This is brought about by the total
failure of crops in that locality
ast season. The recent snow
aces them in more favorable
circumstances lor next year, ami
will almost assure them a wheat
nnd alfalfa crop next year, and
ere is a vast, acreage of both
these crops in his pari of the

Business Increasing.
In conversation with Mr. Davis
this week, he tells us thai his
business has been steadily in
creasing every day since lie came
to Murray a few weeks ago. This
is indeed very gratifying to the
Journal publisher, for we believe
that a man who conducts his
business as Mr. Davis does, it
hould continue to grow. It is
true that he has been selling
some goods on a very close mar
gin and in some instances below
osl. He had but two points in
view and ttiev were to secure Ins
hare of the business in this
community and to reduce the
ock to a lower llgure. He has
been successful beyond his most
anguine' expectations, and we
nredici liiai Hie nusiiiess ot nils
nopular fradinu point will eon-
iniie (o grow under the manage
ment of It. M. Dav is and his son,
F.arl. They are both excellent
uent leineii ami are deserving oi
success in the fuffe( term-.
