EDITOR CHRONICLE - Having spent
about week in the thriving village of
Avoca, which, by the way, is the banner
town for the CHRONICLE, | thought |
would drop you line, thereby letting you
know that Avoca and her business men.
are all right. We have made many new
friends while here, and renewed old ac-
quaintances that were nearly forgotten.
Among the friends of former times, we
met our mutual friend, 0. P. Ashley, our
old townsman and ex-register of deeds.
We found him pitching into farming, just
as though he was used to it.
Business at this place is as good as any
other business point in the county, and
a great deal better than some.
The new firm of Thorson & Thager,
promises to do we'll, as they are good bus
mess men, see advertisement in CHRONICLE.
Franklin's Wagon Shop,is doing good
lively business. PARIS Lumber Yard is
doing hourishing business. Barbara &
Sons, che McAlisters and others, are
wide awake, and always ready for trade.
Friend Smith, of the Avoca House
keeps first-cass hotel. Now Mr.. Editor,
if Won should ever come to Avoca, and
are in want of good square meal, good
quiet house and clean soft bed, just go
fors the Avoca.
The farmers are all very busy putting
in their crops, and all feel hopeful as to
the results of their efforts, for it is confl-
IDENTIFY expected there will be good yield.
