The site of Ed lturhins old planer
has presented a scene of unusual e
tivity duime the past week. The
cause being that it has been purchased
by a company of our solid citizens
who are preparing to erect as fine n
planing plant as there is in the stale
their building will bo 00 x M), two
stories high and the outfit will Consist
of the latest improved machinery that
can bo purchased. For the present
the old engine and buiier will bo fitted
up to do duty until the roads get in
shape for heavy freighting in the
spring, when the big engine and boiler
will be brought in. A fifty horse
power Corliss engine will furnish the
motive power for the plant when com
pleted. The oompany is composed ol
Frank Elkins, F. W. Wilson, A. II.
Lippman, Gianville Clifton and Ed

A number ol fine displays were
made by our business houses at Christ
mas time, but the finest was that at
the butcher shop of Foster 4 Lehman
The boys had some of their finest and
fattest beef, mutton and pork on ex
hibition, from the mammoth Hereford
cow down to a small pig that had been
turned into bacon "en masse as it
were. A pair of red eyes had been
provided for the little fellow, and he
looked as if he had been indulging in
an overdose of sodcorn or some allied
product of home industry. They have
had on the hook a big hog that is al
most, if not quite as large as the one
killed last year, that has been the sub
ject of much guessing during the past
week, as the boys have promised
turkey to the one guessing the nearest
the weight. We hope before we go to
press that the hog will have been
weighed and the lucky guesser named.
The big Hereford cow is one of the
prize winners at the county fair last
fall, and was bought by Foster & Leh
man tor beet as she was a barren cow,
and now that she has been killed we
have the promise of a fine steak for
which the editorial mouth waters, as
panteth the Hart (or the cool waters
of the upland veldt.
The big pig at Koster & Leh
man's that every hotly was guess
ing at its weight was not as heavy
as some thought. The guesses
ranged from in three hundred to
over seven hundred pounds. The
actual weight was 456 pounds and
Dr. Rosenberg gets the turkey by
guessing 460.
Some one entered thv house of
Sam Collins a few weeks ago by
prying open the window and ap
propriated a rifle for his use. Last
Sunday while Mr. and Mrs. Collins
were at church the same party
came back and entered the house
In the same way. He brought the
gun back, but took other articles
in the place of it. This party is
known to Mr. and Mrs. Collins
and if the offense is repeated he
will be prosecuted. Such sneak
thieves are the most contemptible
persous on earth and the best place
for them is behind the bars.
Born Wednesday morning, to the
wife of Dr. J. H. Rosenberg, a
son.
Mother and child are doing
nicely and Doc. is one of the proud
est men in town. It will soon be
Rosenberg & Son.
