Karly gardens look extra well. Rad
ishes, lettuce, etc.. have graced many
of our tables for the last fortnight.
Fruit trees are blooming handsome
ly and a heavy crop of nil kinds Is
practically assured.
Some cheep have been shorn, but
the nights are almost too chilly for
a general clipping. t
Pigs, both young and old are a
scarcity here and some of our neigh
bors that have an over supply of
such of a good grade, would do them
selves as well as many others a good
turn by advertising iu our county pa
pers. Cats and young chickens are not a
very good mixed crop to try to raise,
as many of us have learned to our
sorrow. They lay down quietly to
gether like the lamb and the Hon
the lamb Inside the lion. A shotgun
brigade has been organized and many
"good" cats Is the outcome. The
young chick industry is looking bet
ter as the result.
Reint De Xeui has made many
Improvements at his new home. A
splendid well with a windmill pump, a
rustic fence to his front yard, a poul
try house and a Klondyke stable are
but a few of the many finishing touch
es that catch the passerby's gaze.
Gus Gephart. our stand-by carpen
ter, baa a small farm and has turned
his attention to the raising of fruits
and hops. Mr. Gephart has such a
rush of business in the carpentry- line
that his farm and himself have neces
sarily become strangers to a marked
degree.
Frank Burger, who years ago was
a resident of Frog Pond, has returned
and is now employed by Mr. Gage.
Frank looks the same as in years gone
by.
Mr. Woodhouse is reported very
low with a complication of diseases.
His days are numbered and he is ex
pected to go down to the river where
the two worlds meet at any hour. His
children, grown and scattered, have
all come home to see their parent ere
he goes to return no more
