FosToRIA. O., Sept. s, 1879.
REV. N. 8. ALBRIGHT,
Dear Brother:-Yours came this mail
I am happy for the occasion or opportu-
nifty to reply. have known Mr.. Charles
Foster intimately for a number Of years
He is one of the trustees Of our church
here, and himself and family attend my
church. Mr.. Foster is strictly temperate
and friend of temperance; is not now
nor has he at any time been connected
with any whisky or beer interest. Nc
man in our community has better rep
utation for sobriety and good order than
he.
have known personally many Of the
governors Of Ohio, and I do not think q
purer man ever filed the chair Of state
than Charles Foster. He is man OF
large liberality to all Protestant churches
and recently gave "a 900 for an academy
in this place, founded by the United
Brethren Church, and IS COO for q new
Union school building. I most cheer
fully send you these facts and you are al
liberty to use them in any that you judg
ment may suggest.
hope all good Republicans and tenn
perance men will support him. l an
sure Piohibitionists have nothing to feaI
or to compromise in supporting him a
our next governor.

Triumph Force Feed Grain and Fer
tilizer Drill. without change of gear
wheels. In the TRIUMPH we ac-
complish all can be done by any other
Drill, with all their combinations Of
gear wheels, and that, too, without
any change of gearing There is no
need of changing pecks or half pecks
at a time in the Triumph; it can be
regulated to quarts and pints, and will
sow any kind and quantity of seed per
acre-from one-half bashel of flax seed
to three bushels of oats, and will sow
beans and corn in any desired quantity.
THE FARMERS FRIEND PLAIN
DRILL.
This Drill has been for many years
before the public, and its high reputa-
ton has been so fully established that
for thousands of our reader an Extend
ed description is not necessary; but to
our many friends who have examined
ir only casually, and others who may
wish to buy and have no knowledge of
it, 1 will show with pleasure.
SUPER-PHOSPHAT OF LIME.
Eight good reasons why every Far
mer should use the Homestead brand
Of Super-Phosphate:
Because it gives the crop quick and
vigorous start. 1t natures the crop
from 10 to Is days earlier than any 9TH
er manure, thereby, in many cases saw
ing the entire crop from early frost. It
will increase your crcp from 80 to 100
per cent. 1t adds permanent value TO
your soil. You cannot keep up the
fertility of your soil unless you re-
store to it what you take away by cons
slant crohping. 1t will always prove
what it is recommended to be, genuine
Bone Phosphate. None sent to mar
ket till anaiyzed and known to be up
to the required standard. 1t Is reduced
to a fine, dry powder. which can be
sown with drill, thereby insuring a
great economy in its use on grain
| crops.

The Chippewa Lake Excursion.

The Chippewa Lake excursion was q
decided success in all points, although
the weather in the morning indicated q
rainy day. Early in the forenoon the
weather was very pleasant, cloudy al
times with a cool breeze. Three coach.
es full-nearly three hundred-with
their baskets, boxes, etc., containing ra-
tions ample for the trip, left the depo,
at $40 a. m, by an extra train; arriv.
ing at Grafton we were attached to q
through coal train, arriving at Lake Sta
tion about eleven o'clock, wi ere we
found waiting, some eight or ten omni-
buses, carriages, etc., to take Us to the
Lake, q mile away. Quite q number
preferred to walk and take in all the
sights.
At the Lake we found three other pic.
mic parties. About twelve o'clock ouI
undivided attention was given to the
contents Of the various packages in the
hands of our hungry crew. After din.
ner, boats were hired and all those wish
ing were given a ride on the Lake by sail
and row boats. About four o'clock the
party commenced to wend their way to
the station in squads, some riding and
others walking.
After leaving Lake Station, three OF
four of the party formed themselves into
q tasting committee and went through
the several baskets, etc., that contained
remnants Of the noon repast. One
thing being certain. their appetites were
good the whole day, indicating rubber in
their composition.
Everything considered, the day was
one of enjoyment to al, and the univer-
sal opinion was expressed that We would
have to come again next year and bring
our friends.
After paying all expenses, q small
balance.was left in hands Of committee
for library fund. w.
