C, H. Marsh, present owner of the
John Everhart place, visited a sale
near Hubbard on the 17th of October,

Mr. Marsh moved into this neigh
borhood three years ago, coming from
the state of Washington, where he
had resided for the past thirty years.
His family consists of eight children.
The improvements he has made on
the place since moving there are a
proof of his executive ability and
progressiveness. Most of his place is
seeded to clover. He has just com

many- men of 60 years in conversa
tion, and also in business affairs his
mind appears as clear and as fai
seeing as a man of 40 years. Truly,
taking him as to physical qualifica
