SOMERS.

The summer heat has come at last,
and it's effects especially ON corn are
visible. The weather has been warm
and dry, so that land not cultivated is
baked or crusted over; fears Of drought
have prevailed, but few light show
ers having fallen, the hopes of The hus-
bandman are good as yet. The crops
on the whole continue promising.
Cultiyators have been busy and corn
fields are comparatively free of weeds.
The hay crop is lighter than the ex-
pectation short time ago; with few
exceptions old meadows and sloughs
Will not yield more than two-thirds as
much as the two previous years which
have been exceptional as to yield.
Haying after the 4th is the rule with
many, so some grass has but little time
left for growth.
'Strawberry poor is a form of ex-
preston heard now a-days. The yield
of the fruit is good, and in many in
stances, amount realized from sales
will not cover expenses, so the grow Ell
is discouraged and berries are left un-
picked; the loss to many who depend
on this crop is considerable.
Mr.. Jehiel Hughes came near being
seriously injured by an infuriat ed COW,
which he in company with others was
driving to Kenosha.
Mr.. GARDENERS son fell from the loft
into the NOW at the old Deacon Weed
place receiving severe but not danger
Gus injuries.
Mr.. Yule's hired man going to RAJ
cine on an errand fell over the horses
head thereby frightening the horse who
ran. His foot being caught in the
stirrup he was dragged some distance;
the girth fortunately breaking released
him and saved his life; he sustaining
severe but not serious injury.
The Festival of the Presbyterian
church came off as announced, and
was more of success than it's brother
of the week previous The weather
having warmed up some 25 or 80 deg.
ice cream and strawberries were in

Rev. Chamberlain exchanged pulpits
with Rev. Parsons at the M. E. church

CURE FOR CORNS.

Take lemon and roll it until it is
soft, cut thick slice and bind it or
the corn on retiring at night. In the
morning, if the corn is white and dis
integrated, pull it out with your finger
nails-never cut a corn. Sometimes
several applications of the lemon
slices will be necessary, but the corns
are bound to succumb, and you can
dance the next night, if you like. AT
ter you remove the corns, wear shoes
that fit, and are not too stiff in the

I'M MEMORY OF

Colonel David IL N0e. Addressed to
His Wife
The light has flown from your home hearth
stone;
It's song is hushed and it's flowers are dead,
And, all alone, in your grief and moan,
You listen in vain for dear ones tread.
His place is there and his empty chair
The pictures he priced and the books he read
And, memory brings from her precious things
The tender tones of the words he said.
But his face, SO bright with loves own light,
Comes, never, in through the open door,
And, your sad heart pines, as the day declines
For the loving voice you may hear nc more.
He clasped your hand, in fairy land,
All rife with the hopes and dreams of youth
And his every thought, with affection fraught
Was laid on the altar of trust and truth.
And down the years with their smiles and
tears;
Through all the sorrows and joys of life,
Next to his love for the Lord above,
He cherished his darling, his own, true wife
Faithful and strong to redress the wrong
That threatened the home land, loved Sc
well,
He led a host, not counting the cost,
Where the best and brayest fought and fell.
Day after day, OH the worlds highway,
He walked in the light of noble fame,
And, Time Will write, on his tablets bright,
The glorious deeds that crown MS name.
His race was run in the storm and sun
His soul was ripe for higher life;
To die was gain, and his hearts last pain
Was the thought of leaving his child and wife.
With blessed trust i'll the Lord all just
And true to the promise His love has given
He left the earth with it's dust and dearth,
For his beautiful home prepared in heaven.
His work, begun below, will be done
Where pain and sorrow have no control,
And, his love, so pure, will live, endure,
And grow with the growth of his deathless
soul.
