One day last week we accepted
an invitation from Deupty Sheriff, H
3. Reynolds, to take a drive into thu
country for the purpose of seeing the
crops, stock, etc. 1t being the frs
time we had been out in the country
this summer, We were very much sur
prised, and had not even imagined
that the crops were so excellent thii
year. Acres and acres of the nices
corn we have ever seen, and beautifu
fields of wheat, rye and oats, seeming
" so thick and heavy that it must b
very difficult to harvest. We drov
about II miles when we arrived a
the farm of e. g. Radcliff, in Solo
mon township, where Mr.. Reynold
2 has some of the finest stock we hav
had the pleasure OF looking at in thi
country. Alr. RadclIlf makes a bus
ness taking care of stock, aud now ha
