six separators, a lactocrite and an ice
making machine. The shares have dou-
bled in price, and the butter sells in the
Philadelphia market for 80 cents a pound
wholesale. The patrons are simply in
telligent working farmers who use their
brains and hustle. This shows what the

 CHAR RAT.

CHAR RAT.
 Shortly after closing up his store on Tuesday evening Mir Betts was warned by his alarm that something was wrong there. Calling MT Williams, his clerk they repaired to the store, and, as oft be- fore they found tramp concealed in a closet in the rear. Entrance had been made by breaking window in the rear which was then easily unlocked and opened. Mir Betts then tried to utilize the lookup at the Town hall, but no one knew where the key was, so was com pelled to let his prisoner go with repri- mand. This shows a very interesting state of affairs. The town has provided lookup, but if the keys are not obtain able of what use is it going to be? The hour when it is most likely to be needed, is just when it is most inconvenient to SCOUT the neighborhood for the custo- dian.
