New Firm.

As will be seen elsewhere. Dr.. N. Bixby
has purchased the grocery Store of H.
Wingett and formed a partnership with
Geo. Wingett. The Stock Of d, ugs has
been moved to the grocery store, Durtnal's
building, and they will continue, both the
Drug & Grocery business. DR.. Bixby has
spent nearly four years in this place in
connection with the U. s. Land Office and
is generally and favorab'y known. He
has been practising Physician and is an
excellent Druggist. His going into busi-
ness and making settled residence here
will b source Of general qualification.
Both partners being competent druggists
will add very greatly to their own conven-
fence and much better acc ,midate the COM
munity. The firm has already purchased
large additions to their stock and intend to
make both departments complete and keep
them so. If No. l. goods at low figures
will bring trade, they intend to get a fair
share. Give them a call.

EDTrORs News: 1 want to say that
we are all OF us yet alive, although
you have not heard from us since /
can remember. We are all right. Our
crops were good last year. Some OF
our land turned OF 80, some 20, some
20 bushels Of corn to the acre. Oats
did well; peaches pretty good; mel
Ions abundantly; and as to the potato
crop, it is ahead Of all others. From
less than one bushel Of seed, measur-
ed, We raised upwards of $50 bushels
of Peach-blOw potatoes-a sample of
them can be seen at NOrton's Office, in
Emporia, selected fol Centennial ex-
hibitIon.
Frank Ellis has made q stir In the
valley in the line Of peanuts. He
raised from lets than one acre of
ground about sevcnty-five bushels and
has sold most ali of them for good
prices.
You can see on most of the yards in
the neighbOrhOOd fence posts by the
cord, ready to drive az soon as the
ground Is wet enough. And we have
occasionally the prairie plow talked
about, and If we are not mistaken
there will be great quantity broke
this spring and summer.
Now, you may want to know why
we are all so wide awake down here.
Well, it Is now q settled fact that there
will not ever be another grasshOpper
in this part of the world any more.
(See the hopper law, and other laws
of like value). What q pity it is that
Pharaoh did not have the Kansas leg
