long.
Those of the farmers that have not
already finished sowing are now very

Thanksgiving Day was not observed in
these "diggins." Guess tho people were
too busy to give the good Lord thanks for
80 many goodly, rich blessings that he
has bestowed upon US very unworthy
creatures. Oh! how many bites OF bread
by the consumer where the food came
