Lightning Rod Sharpers.

The season for lightning rod
swindlers to make their appearance
amongst the farmers. is approaching.
Farmers should be careful what
documents they sign. A couple of
weeks ago party of the sharks were
travelling through Huntingdon coun-
ty and working their scheme by rep
resenting to the farmers that they
were only required to sign docu-
ment to pay small sum as the differ
ence between the old and new rods.
Afterwards farmer learns to mis-
sorrow that he signed . negotiable
note for about ten times the amount
to pay for the exchanging of the
lightning rods. Farmers should keep
a sharp lookout for them.
