Tuesday last there was a prairie
fire near Indian Creek. We have
heard Of nc damage yet, but there
will be a fearful amount of injury done
some one if this fire business isn't
stopped.
Watch out for those new groceries
which will be at Sheerer's during the
coming week. Call and give them a
trial.
- Every settlement and community
in this section Of the State, should or
ganiEe at once into a COMMITTEE Of
the whole" TO take measures for pro-
lection against prairie fires. A vici-
lance committee should be formed
which can be called out at a moments
notice to take prompt action in case
ERE should accidentally get out. All
parties Of travellers and immigrants
should be watched and warned that if
they allow any fire to escape, they will
meet with certain and prompt punish
ment. The struggling bands of In
dams who occasionally pass through
should be warned tia. if they set fire
to the prai-ies, as they did last year,
they will be brought to an account.
The nan who o wantonly fires the
prairie should be considered and treat
ed as 4 public enemy.

It'd ". L. VASALsTrSE-
The threshlng machines have
been busy throughout the county since
harvest, and there viii be 4 large
amount Of whea. in this psrt Of the
valley. The promise Of the earlier
part Of the season has not been borne
out owing to the long continued
drought. The yield a. reported has
run from ten to twenty bushels, bu,
little reaching the latter figure. Prob
ably it is safe 10 put the average at
from twelve TO fourteen bushels per
acre. Oats have been light from the
same cause, and will not average more
than twenty fye or thirty bushels.
- Every farmer in the county
should attend the caucu>es next S:a.
urday afternoon, and see to it that
men Of their choice are eleeteias dele
gates 10 the county convention.
- Don't forget the primary meet
ings. Attend them, one and all.
BASKET MEErrYG-TheTe viii be
4 basket meeting on the camp ground,
commonly known as Penney Greek, on
Sunday the 5O.h Of August, commenc-
ing at half past nine O'Clock, 4 H., to
continue all day. Come everybody,
and bring your dinners.
{. REILLY,
Preacher 10 Charge.
The Domestic Sewing Machine
is acknowledged by all competent
Judges to be the best machine now be-
fore the public.
- Last week the subject Of prairie
fires was mentioned. The dangers
from fires are not imaginary, ani the
damages would put the finishing
touches on the calamities Of drought
aud grasshoppers. The prsiries are
now as Dry as a pile of pine shacings,
and a fire once started would soon get
beyond human control. The grass is
needed by the cattle. and without il
hut little stock Of any kind can be
kept through the coming winter. Nor
does the matter end with the question
of food for stock. \ great amount Of
grain is yet in the stack, and a fire
would sweep over the stuhble fields
with as much rapidi,y and danger as
the prairie itself. Grain. hav. stables,
is liable to be
swept away by the terrible element.
Watch he fires!

Facts About Farmers.
(From tho Chicago Tribune, s'Et

(From tho Chicago Ttbunc.l
The report Of the Massachusetts, Board
oil Health for this year contains valua-
BILE paper on the farmers Of that State. It
makes the surprising statement that the
VALUE d farm products is greater, both
per farm and per acre, IN Massachusetts
than In New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Illinois, Michigan or Minnesota. The
nearness OF the farm 10 the market Is the
reason for this remarkable TACT The CEN
sus returns OF 1870 prove 1t. This Is not
the only blessing Of these lucky Down
East agriculturists. Like their brethren
Of the Augustan Age, they would be "too
happy, did they but know their own good
fortune" They live, on an average, 65. 1S
years, which is1410 years beyond the
