We met farmer the other day who
complained that the products of his
farm did not bring as much as III
former years. This is true, but the
prices are good deal better than they
were several years ago. We remem-
Der that for several years wheat never
exceeded fifty cents a bushel, and
then it had to be hauled thirty-two
miles through the woods to get that
price for it. Butter was worth only
ten cents a pound. We have sold
large quantities of potatoes for ten
cents bushel. Eggs were worth
only three cents q dozen. We were
glad to ges ten cents bushel for good
sound corn. We have sold good three
hundred pound dressed hog for dol
lar and ssventy-five cents a hundred.
Compare the present price of farm
products with those we speak of, and
the balance will be found largely in
favor this year; but for all that prices
are too low now; conditions are so
different from those of the years we
speak of, and there Is not much pros
pect of their being higher.-Farm,
Stock and Home.

BE careful about turning the cattle
into the stalk fields. If they are
turned in and permitted to gorge
themselves you williikely have some
dead cattle on your hands. When
first turned into stalk fields cattle are
exceedingly greedy. Iftaken out af-
ter being in short time, and returned
next day for n similar time, they will
become somewhat less greedy, and
less liable to be injured.

improving Two Streets,

The board Of public works held lengthy
session last night, to listen to arguments for
and against the opening up and widening of
Goodrich avenue from Western to Pleasant
avenue and of the opening up and wideni ng
OF Western avenue from Goodrich to Pleas
ant, and also to settle the matter of damages
etc. A goodly number of interested residents
and property owners on both avenues were
present. and @ number Of them were heard
1t was pretty generally admitted that prop
erty owners would be materially benefited by
the opening and widening, but some of them
were emphatically opposed to the pro-
posed Improvement. 1t was intimated that
the total amount Of damages for the improve
ment on Goodrich avenue would be $l1 400
Residents on the upper part of the avenue
felt that as those on the lower part would be
equally benefited, they should be assessed
for the work. President Barrett of the
board stated that, in his opinion, the avenue
will have to be opened and widened sooner or
later, and the sooner the better and the
cheaper. The proposed widening is thirty
three feet. Messrs. Garland and Gowan of
the trunk factory stated that the improve
ment would necessitate the entire removal of
their business, as they are already crowded.
and they ask for an equal amount
of land on the opposite side of
the street. Judge Nelson, largely interested
in lots on the avenue, was opposed to the i'm
pfovement. The board laid over the whole
matter until the meeting on Monday Nav 81
"a. and will this morning visit the point and
view the grounds.
