A four-horse load of Good TEN
plars (twenty-three in number) from
the Johnson Lodge visited the Lodge
at this place last Friday evening.
The genial District Deputy, Rev. L.
Crudgington, was along and altogether
it was pretty jovial company. Re-
| freshments were served.
The 18th birthday of Mrs. Arvilla
Crowell was observed last Friday by a
tea-party at which a number of her
relatives were present. The occasion
was very enjoyable one. Numerous
letters from absent friends were read.
Mrs. Crowell has always lived in this
County, being born on the Van Ness
Lilley farm.
Dentist Deming has finished up his
work here and returned to High
gate. He will continue his studies
at Philadelphia the coming winter, and
if he does not locate permanently will
visit this place next year as he has in
the past. Fay" is good fellow
and will be greatly missed by our
young people.
The SANDER that the soldiers were
against Edmunds will be knocked
down by man without any fists in
the legislature. His name is S. W.
Kinds and he is the member-elect
from Hyde Park. He served in the
18th Vermont and lost both hands.
His father, Capt. Kinds, was one of
the heroes of Lundy's Lane.-RmLdnd

Mrs. F. A. Blossom of Brooklyn,
n. Y, with her maid and children who
have been stopping at $ The Elms "
the past eleven weeks, left last Friday
for Saratoga, where after spending
week, they will return to their home.
During their stay here this pleasant
family made many friends and the
happy faces of the children will be
greatly missed. We hope they will
again visit US. Such people find
cordial welcome in all communities
and it gives US pleasure to note that
the patrons of ''The Films" are of
this class.
Our present States Attorney, H.
NJ. Mcfarland, devotes considerable
time to gardening, and is to certain
extent very successful. He raises
fine strawberries and melons and vari-
Gus other kinds of garden sass"
But we understand as squash raiser |
he is not an expert. He has however
a very fine pumpkin, raised from a hot
bed, which is equal to any grown in a
corn field. He nurtured it with much
care-but is not as yet able to raise
squash from pumpkin seed. d" Uncle
Park" too, might give an interesting
account of his experience in trying to
raise water-melons from citron seed.
Austin Belknap, the creamery pro-
prietor, was in town last week. He
has been making arrangements for
the creamery next year, which
will be on the ''cream gathering
system that is, a wagon from the
creamery will call on the farmers at
stated periods for the cream. This
will do away with the great complaint
heretofore - the expense and time
the farmer lost in carrying his milk.
Mr.. Belknap has already assurances
of the patronage of $50 to 800 COWS
sud feels very much encouraged for
the coming year. He will have on
exhibition in short time at the Post
Office a can similar to that which will
be used for setting the milk, which all
farmers should see.
