The editor of the Honey Grove Signal has long'

from *he upstairs windows of his i'ttle city that
buttermilk is the panacea of all of our ills, and
the very article of diet fitted for the inner man.
All the while he has steadfastly refused to men-

he lives and has his being, the “three graces’*

From this time on there will be no turnip
greens, as the patch will be cleared away to
