Farmers in this vicinity are nearly
all done haying, and report a much
better crop than was expected at the
beginning of the season. The dull
weather, which has so tried their pa
tience in getting their hay, has worked
to their advantage after all. 1 think
they will all admit the Lord has man
aged about right. Would it not be
better for all to grumble less and trust
Him more?
Many are harvesting their oats.
The Republicans raised nice Blaine
and Logan flag last week. 1t was a

d. Benjamin, who died here two years
ago. 1t is highly appreciated. !
