The insurance companies for
which V. 0. Boots is agent are
very prompt in making pay
ments. The bakery fire occcured
Friday night and Monday the

We have received many nice
things to eat since we started
the Herald, but the nicest we
have ever received since we have
been in the business was sent to
this office Saturday by "Grand
ma" Lucas. It consisted of
several fine peaches and a dozen
fine figs, all grown in Monmouth.
The peaches were seedlings and
were as finely flavored as the
famous Elberta. The smallest
one measured a trifle less than
eight and one-half inches in cir
cumference, while the largest
one measured nine and one-half
inches. As grapes of very fair
quality can be raised here, one
can as litterally sit under his own
vine and fig tree in this country
as he could in olden times in far
Judea's vales.
