VILLAGE CoUNcn.-The members of the

journing sine die. The new council, COM

CLEAN Your SEED.-There is no econ
omy in cultivating weeds. Time spent in
cleaning seed grain is amply paid for in
the crop. No matter how excellent the
quality of the wheat, if it be thickly in
terspersed with foul seed the results both
in quantity and quality of the yield will
be unsatisfactory. This is the time when
attention should be given to preparing
seed, and the best preparation that can
be given it is the separating of all for
eign seeds. No better machine can be
found for this purpose than the Agitator,
patented by William Lewis, of this town.
1t is not only a perfect cookie mill, but it
will clean all dirt from wheat, oats, or
grass seeds. It is cheap and effective, and
will pay for itself many times over every
spring and fall, in cleaning seed, and
again in getting grain in good con-
dition for market. Mr.. Erwin, at the
Hoople elevator, will be glad to show it
in operation to any one who will call.
SUDDEN DEATH.-Mrs. E. P. Barnum
left on Monday morning for Hastings,
a telegram announcing the death of her
aunt, Mrs. DR.. Etheredge, having been
received on Sunday. Mrs. Etheredge has
visited at Sank Centre several times, and
has made many acquaintance here. A
