breed Of hay presses. If you want a
hay press you had better see Mr.. H.
He has marked his prices down to
"jibe" with the times.
Mr.. Geo. Gordon, of Brewster,
made the ADVANCE pleasant call
Monday last. He says Brewster is
livelier this fall than it has been for
the past two years. The hay and
grain business is good at that place.
Farmers look here. You can get

at the Congregational church Sunday
evening last, missed good sermon
and some very fine singing. Rev.
Mr.. McCune delivered very able
sermon. The choir was composed
of five of Worthington's best male
voices; Messrs. Mann, Palm, Ramage,
and Mckay brothers.
The Worthington ADVANCE under
Carl Eastwood's administration is
not only a thing of beauty, but it
sparkles with interest and ability, both
locally and editorially. If Worthing-
ton business men know when they
are we'll off they will give Bro. East
wood generous backing.-Fairmont

Judge Nelson blew in Monday
from Luverne. The Judge is one of
the most familiar figures in this part
of the State. Of course he had moth
ing to say on county seat matters,
other than that he thought Worth
ington mighty good town. When
asked if he thought Adrian would
ever be the county seat he simply
winked the other eye.
King has become so mad about
the county seat matter that he fumes
and froths like a bottle of ''pop." If he
continues to get madden and madden
until Adrain becomes the county seat
there won't be much left of him but
his boot heels and egotism. We do
not think there are many people in
Adrian, even, who would vote to move
the county seat from Worthington-
and none of them, except few
jackals of the King kind, ever ex-
pect an opportunity to vote on the
question.
Senator and Mrs. LaDue were on
the east bound Omaha train on their
way to the Worlds Fair. The Sena-
tor is one of the commissioners, and
has been at Chicago all summer, but
came home to superintend the ship
ping of ten of his finest horses. They
will compete for the grand sweep
stakes prize. The ADvANcEpredicts that
the Senator's horses will take the belt.
One of his horses is said to be one of
the finest animals in the world.
The Heron Lake Tow Mill, the
largest tow mill in the world, will
soon be running at it's full capacity.
J. T. Smith, the proprietor, will have
buyers at Worthington, Fulda, Stay
ton, Window, jackson and other
towns in this section of the state, and
will be prepared to handle all flax
straw he can get hold of. Farmers
should take good care of their flax
straw by stacking it we'll, SO that it
will be marketable, for Mr.. Smith
will buy it, if it is in good condition,
paying the highest market price,

Adrian Guardian: Sheriff Thorn
was in the west end summoning jurors
this week, paying our city a visit
Wednesday. He told us that his
nephew, who was so seriously injured
last week, is doing as we'll as
could be expected. .. Our old friend,
Thos. Klassey, was an Adrian visitor
couple of times. "Tom' is ever
