A POTATO SToRY.-When a small boy used
to wonder at the stories told about large sweet
potatoes in "Virginny'' and "Kaintuck."
Among others was this: That potatoes used to
grow SO long that person could sit on one end
of potato while the other end was roasting in
the fire. Well, some of these potatoes grew in
Hartford this season. Several specimens were
measured that were each over four feet long.
They were not thick in proportion, but were
cookable and eatable.
Incidentally, / may mention that unimproved
lots are for sale in Hartford at from twenty to
fifty dollars.
Mr.. Chambers sold two lots to Mr.. HooV er at
forty dollars each.
Mr.. Priest has just bought the building and
six lots north of the Academy, from S. VAN
gundy.
VIM. Bacon has just bought four lots west
of the Academy.
A new harness shop has been opened in
town, Hank Mason, proprietor.
The drug store is not opened yet. The build
ing is not ready.
The Academy building is receiving a fresh
coat of paint.
Both our dry goods men say they are doing as
large business as they have the capital for.
Mr.. Britton is doing much as formerly.
paid little more attention to Mr. Gould
this week. Each of two evenings he sold over
seventy-five dollars worth of clothing after
| dark. He sells on the ready pay plan.
Messrs. Chambers & Baysinger are making
soD;o sales from their nursery.
Mr.. cCarty is at work on the basement of
his hardware store.
Mr.. j. A. MeGinnis is off for his new home in
Southern Kansas.
Several families haye lately come to Hartford
| and vicinity, to go on to farms in the spring.
We need to have the water power near town
improved.
There are no idlers in Hartford now.
The grading on the railroad is about done
through Lyon county. Weare anxiously wait
| ing to see the cars.
This part of Lyon county has its full share Of
persons seeking lands and homes.
