Schulz ert Qusr,ette Concert.

The closing coucert OF the High school
course occurred Tuesday evening last, Civ
en- by Schubert Male Qusrtette of Chica-
60, assisted by Miss Baldwin, soprano,
Miss CLEMENS, reader and Miss Roman,
accompanist. The company as a whole
is strong one and gave good enter
tainment which judging from the many
encores, was highly satisfactory to the
large audience present. 1t was a fitting
close to this we'll arranged and entertain
ing course, which has stlJrded SO much
enjoyment during the winter.
The proceeds of the courses of the tw q
seasons have been devoted to the purchas-
ing of piano for the High school. Ii
would seem that the money could not
have been put where it would be Of more
use to the school, as good piano has
been much needed for years. The piano
purchased was used in the concert Tues
day evening, and is sweet, clear-toned
instrument
The school as well as the managers of
the course are to be congratulated upon
ITS favorable results

Farmers generally are holding their po-
tatoes for higher prices, and in our opin-
ion they are IL k ing great mistake, for
there isn't the slightest prospect that they
will get more than We are pay ing at THE
present time, aud there is abundant test.
mony that last Year the potato crop of til,
United States WAS the larg, st ever known,
rs given in the Government Agricultural
reports. This fact, considered in con.
nection with the fact that our wheat
and corn crop SURPRISES in abundance all
previous years, seems to us, to be con-
ylnciDg evidence, that no one article Of
food can rise in price much above what it
is at the present time. We are buying
potatoes in large or small quantities and
as we have large order from away, VT
should like to fill it this week if possible.
So bring them along as soon as possible
for after filing this order we may have to
drop our figures.
