The corn crop will be much lighter
in this vicinity, than was thought to be
some time ago, real good crops being
very scarce. Corn will undoubtedly be
higher than for several years, as there is
now full stock of cattle and hogs in
the country TO feed.

The cry of register OryOu can't VOTE -

Tressler's new hall will be dedicated
on Friday evening, October Oath, by an
entertainment consisting of a dramatic
play, by home talent, reading and reel
tatiOns by Miss F. NJ. Estabrook, and
music by SOgard's MINISTRIES and the cor
net band. The entertainment will be
laughable, Interesting and instructive,
and we shall expect to see everybody
there. We always prefer an entertain
ment by home talent to that given by
the average travelling troupe, and we are
assured that the play selected is the kind
that takes best-full of fun and has a
good moral. We need scarcely say a
word in regard to Miss Estabrook, as she
is well known as the finest reader and
elocutionist in the west We have the
assurance that there will be Il large num-
Der of our city cousins and aunts up from
EmpOria. We have but word to add
and that is that if you don't want to
laugh and feel good, why keep your
quarter and stay at home. KENO.
