A Challenge.

The undersigned propose to exhibit at
the Iowa County Fair, next week, break
ing plows, stubble plows, and breaking
and stubblc plows combined. They have
made arrangements so that each variety of
plows can be tried, and every quality thor
oughly tested. They think that they
make the best pillow in the State, and will
therefore challenge any pillow manufacturer
in the west to come to the fair, bring their
plows, and before impartial judges haze
their merits thoroughly tested. We wish
every thing to be taken into consideration
the shape, and finish of the plows, the
quality Of steel, the ease of draught. and
capacity for working well, and securing in
all kinds Of ground. We don't wish to
take our plows to the fair and find no 9th
ers competing for the premiums, and be
llieving that our manufacture excel all 9th
ers, we confidently, and in good faith
offer this challenge to all pillow makers ir
the west.

johnson, who has been lingering about
Highland, in this county, for several
weeks, and who had collected several
watches for repair, among which was a
very valuable gold watch and some silver
ones, left very suddenly with his stock Of
watches, but through the influence of
the owners of the watches, an officer left
very suddenly afterward and met the jew
eler at Boscobel, in GRAM county, and
they both arrived in this village on Satur-
day night last, and the jcweler was pretty
much run down. lie was placed in one of
the cells of the Jail for repairs, and it is
quite probable that when the grand jury
meets next week they will wind him up.

MAZOMANIE.
Editorial correspondence


We lad occasion to visit the thriving
village of Mazomanie during last week
and found that it had improved much
since our previous visit, and now bids fair
to be one of the best business points on
the railroad. We called at the Tanning.
mil mandatory of G. Davies & Bro
These men are doing a heavy business,
and put up probably the best mill in the
west, as all the wood work is made at the
shop and well seasoned before using. The
average amount of work is ten mills daily.
They employ fourteen hands in the shop,
and run six teams all the time. They
have every facility at these works for get
ting up first class mills, and everything is
done With dexterity and dispatch.
Mazomanie has the advantage of many
of our western villages on account of the
superior water power it has. The country
around the village is very beautiful, and
the village itself is one Of the most beauti-
ful in the west. 1t has long, wide, and
clean streets, shaded on each side with
a row of maple and locust trees, which
gives to the village very beautiful and
refreshing appearance.
The people have manifested proper
regard for the educational interests of the
community by building one Of the largest
and best school hous es in the country,

The Fair

Commences in this village, on Wednesday
of next week. The officers of the Agri-
cultural Society have taken great pains and
considerable trouble to fully complete ar
rangements to make the coming fair a very
successful one. Nearly $4,000 have been
expended on the track, grounds and build
ings, and the Society now boasts of having
the best track, grounds, and accommoda-
tons for fair of any society in South
western Wisconsin. Considerable work
has been done on the track since the tour
nament in August. 1t is now all fenced,
and is about as perfect as track can be.
AS the State Fair ends to-day, a number
Of the best horses Of the State are ex-
pected, and it is affirmed that the attrac-
tions Cor those who delight in seeing fast
horses, and seeing them do their best on a
good track, were never surpassed in this
part Of the State. We hope that the farm
ers and citizens Of the county generally
will turn out their productions TO the fair.
Let this be time of general good feeling,
as well as time of sightseeing and en-
ioyment. Bring the whole family, surely
the farm can take care of itself for a day
or two, while you attend your county fair
which only occurs once year.

should judge by the immense stocks OF
goods arriving every day, that our mer-
chants expected to do heavy business.
During he coming fall! and winter Dodge
Vile will be the best place to buy goods in
the county, for our merchants have laid in
extra heavy stocks, and they mast be sold.
They will consequently put their prices
down to the very lowest notch, and use

John having induced them to nominate
him that he might have an opportunity OF
