such means. Success to them.
by the last issue of the Wyoming
Farmer, we notice that Joe l.. Stotts

Our neighbors in and about Gray are

publishers by the conflict of holidays
with publication days can hardly be ap-
preciated by the public. The internal
economy of printing Office is so ar
ranged that an hour or day lost must
be made up. The present grievance of
The REPUBLICAN is that Memorial day
and the Fourth both occur OH Thurs
day.
Prof. Hawk will only make brief and
occasional visits to his farm In Craw.
ford county during vacation, and will
devote the most of his time to bees, of
