Oats.

I advertised for 10000 bushels Of oats for
which [ am receiving ral.quantities. I
have nearly filled one store house and am
about to remove two or three blocks to an
other and | wish to say to all those bring
ing me oats that want them to clean their
oats through a tanning mill so they will be
clean from straw, dust, and seeds, say this
to guard you against bringing into market
oats that would not be merchantable and
you will be liable to not get full price for
them not we'll cleaned. | say this for your
interest and my own as these oats are going
to a foreign market, should feel proud that
kenosha County could furnish a superior
quality, and they would call on us again.

WIT AND WISDOM,

Zone mans conduct may lead Q

low man; the prudent man looketh well
to his going"
Why is it that, whenever you are
looking for any thing, you always find
1t In the last place you look? The
reason is because you always stop look
Ing when you find it.
Young man, don't break in two in
the middle if the world goes against
you. Brace up and go against the
world awhile. and see how quick you
can knock it out. Washington Critic.
The faults and weaknesses Of
others, instead of being woven into Cos
sip, scandal and useless criticism,
should be used as danger signals, to
warn us away from the paths which
have led to them.
1t is clearly an undeniable fact that
mankind generally had rather remain
actually ignorant of any certain thing
not ready known to them than to
learn it in any way which will show
and virtually acknowledge their igno-
rance. -Des Moines Leader.
If the right is not used as a weapon
OF offense, it is not so likely to need to
spend itse'f in its own defense. And if
the wrong is busy neither with its own
defense nor with the direct offense
against the right, 1t is more fairly open
to see the right as exhibited in the
right. 1t is better to draw one into the
right than even to drive him out of the
wrongs. S. Tssaes.
The first attempt to record public
