To the Editor : Between 5 and 0 o'clock Saturday evening.whilo S. II. Kauffman and crew were busied hulling clover on tho farm of Frank Stanton every one was suddenly horrified by tho pitiful tries of Ivera Miller, a 12 year old boy, who had while standing on top of the machine attempted to start tho self .feeder, which was temporarily clogged, and had fallen In only to be cirriod feet foremost toward the buzzing cylinder, where his left foot and leg half way to the kneo were torn to fragments. All thin seems horrible, but the terrible half hour that elapsed before a drzon anxious men could by chopping into the frame of tho machine, removing bolts and chiseling through iron remove the uttering victim from his terrible bed in the machinery, the pressure of which ecu led great enough to cause death. Hvery minute was far too horrifying for the writer, who was a witness, to ex press in written language. The parents, Wilhoit, Please allow me space in your valua ble paper to correct a slur, which occur red in the Beaver Lake correspondence. It said Beaver lake is a small, beautiful lake, situated two miles northwest of Wilhoit. iNow this is utterly false. There is no such a lake. He again said there is no such a stream as Beaver lake. This is not true. The bigger part oj hub lanu is owned by John tiro shong, and I would ask the readers of this paper and the people of this place uowcouiu jonn urosnong raise grain and garden on a lake of water? This is a beautiful piece of land, and all the lake tiiere is is in the winter. Some places it overflows, Lnt in summer he raises grain and garden, and there is now water only in this little stream. News Boy. Liberal. Threshing is nearly all done. Grain is not yielding as expected. Geo. Frazer had the best yield of oats 60 bushels per acre.

A great many are leaving for the hop fields, so we will be a lot of old batches. J. Akins. our blacksmith, had an an. cidont Sunday.

It has kept my scalp free from dandruff and has prevented my hair from turn ing gray." Mrs. F. A. Soule, Billings, Mont. There is this peculiar thing about Ayer's Hair Vigor it is a hair food, not a dye. Your hair does not suddenly turn black, look dead and lifeless.
