There ia considerable Improvement In BUSH
ness, as is evidenced by the fact that Real Es-
tate begins to move" AT least, two parcels
OF Realty dld move on Tuesday. The way OF
it was this: Ian. Harrison. who is out from
Illinois looking around and who owned house
and lot in this village, for the want OF other
amusement got up trade with IKE Conner,
who happened to own an interest In some
swamp land two or three miles south Of the
village. Ike. gave IAN. lbs interest in the
swamp for Zan's house and lot. and Ian. gave
Ike. his house and lot for Ike's interest in the
swamp. SO they traded. Deeds were made,
executed, acknowledged and delivered. Both
went to the Registers Office to have their deeds
recorded. 1t would have done you good to
have seen that South Haven chap, who runs
the Registers Office, go for the little fees. In
his hurry, he upset chair and came near over
turning man that was at the time bottomine
another.
