Pay Up.
We have considerable money owing
to us on subscription accounts, towering
period of from one to three years, ana
We want II. We are perfectly willing
to wait until the paper has been sent
one year before asking for our money,
but after that we feel that 1t belongs to
US, and We modestly but firmly ask all
those knowing themselves TO bc In
dcbtcd to lis for more than one year to
come up and settle, This II the Last
call of this kind, aud We respectfully
suggest that we have thrown grass and
clods until We are tired, and stones will
be the next prescription II the boy does
not "come down" II you want the
paper, pay for 1t; II you don't want 1t,
pay what you owe and stop II. This
course will not make us mad, ASA news
paper is like any other commodity, you
can buy 1t or let II alone, but II you do
buy it YOU are expected to pay up.
How We Grow.
Mr.. r. l.. Smith has put up sub
stautial fence around the forty acres on
Indian creek he bought Of Samuel
Clark.
y great improvement hls been made
on the Rankin place since Mr.. Jones
bought H. An addition To the house,
new fencing aud new grouud cleared,
change the looks ot the place 50 one
would hardly recognize it.
The Hershey brothers have put up a
very neat picket ience along their
whole line.
Next comes the Odd Fellows cem-
etery, which few months ago was sill
woods, hut now is nicely fenced cleared
and lots staked of. When the wicket
gateway and other improvements are
completed it will he All ornament to
the street.
J. 4. Neileigh, beside putting up a
house, has cleared and fenced part of
his land and got in some wheat.
The Rand place, under the care of
Mr.. Orser, is looking in better condi-
ton than it has for several years.
MIR. Heald's orchards ARE kept in Il
state Of model cultivation.
The Husbands place, which was
bought last fall by Mr. Bateham, has
had considerable new fencing and
clearing done and some nursery stock
started. He expects to build house
in the spring.
Mr.. H. +. Davidson, who bought
forty acres of Mrs. Monroe, has built
himself neat house and has his place
under good cultivation.
A great number Of ugly stumps and
brush, which Ornamented (?) this part
of the road last year, have recently
been buried out, much to the appear
ance of the street.
J. II. McCoy's place always strikes
US as model little home.
Both A. l.. Disbrow and Peter Hin
richs have considerable more land un-
der cultivation than they had last
year.
The next noticeable improvement is
the new picket fence in front of the
Congregational church. 1t is both
neat aud substantial aud All ornament
to the place.
All the farmers along here are doing
well in the way of clearing, and each
year sees new ground broken aud less
stumps in the old fields.
The Mckay place, since its purchase
by Mr.. Sipina, is undergoing such in-
provements that if they continue AZ he
plans they shall, one would not recog-
nize it as the same place. A new house
and barn are both to be built this sum-
mer.
These are some of the Improvements
which would he noticed from the road
10y person taking the drive for the
first time since last summer. We have
not tried TO enumerate all the improve
ments, and we have not mentioned the
fine house built by Mr.. Eliot, or the
building and clearing going ON along
the line of the proposed new road
which is to run in from Hershey's,
around by Bakers and out through
Disbrow's.
TO see these one would have to do
more than 60 round the block, which
was the road we noted these improve
ments on.
The road is In fine condition ard the
drive is becoming more beautiful and
popular every year. X.
