6. b. Russell and John A. Nash
were in Des Moines last week and
traded tract Of land in Plymouth
county for n stock of boots and shoes.
1t was general stock, consisting of
grades all the way from ballet slip.
pers to pillow boots, shaped on lasts
from A to E, and in length would
accommodate the most diminutive or
gigantic specimen of the human
race. The gentlemen drove a good
bargain, but at present they are "full"
on boots and shoes.
Audubon stock buyers have been
arrayed in battle on prices for the
past ten days with much more profit
to the farmers than to themselves. As
high as $3.64 per cwt. was paid last
week for hogs, and this week prices
have been active, from $685. to $3.50.
The Chicago market went up fifteen
cents yesterday, so that there is a
iaNo'"oS prospect VI SoitinudHCc
of these satisfactory prices. The bel
ligerent attitude of the buyers has
melted them to paying higher prices
than they were really warranted in
making, but it has given Audubon
the preference for hog market
over its surrounding neighbors. We
hope their purse strings will remain
loose so that the advantages to the
city will remain operative.
Rev. w. G. Kephart, of Atlantic,
occupied the Presbyterian pulpit
last Sabbath morning, and tho small
audience present felt that they were
a favored few in being permitted to
listen to sermon so interesting and
mastery as was the reverend gen.
tleman's effort on this occasion. His
subject was "The Origin, Dignity
and Destiny of Man," and his text
a portion of the 10th and the 77th
verses of the first chapter of Genesis.
