Something has been said in the papers

chase strip Of his lot between 7th and 9Th
street to widen Perry street. We are now
reliably informed that he never entertained
or expressed any such desire, through any
hope Of making any such sale; because he
would rather not sell but made the propo.
sition because he knew that the property
had been appraised at $1,000, and did not
know but the Council was ready to close the
arrangement; and for the further reason
that it might save him any future trouble
regarding the property, should the city au-

per day WAS paid for hands. Tho crop was
very large, larger than usual; and It was
fesred that it could not be harvested with
the few hands to be obtained But they
went TO work, and the result was that with
less than half Of the usual amount Of help
they harvested more grain than was ever
harvested in Scott county in any ono year
before. They know Aos they did it, and
will continue to profit by their experience,
and save thousands Of dollars thereby.
