]. P Veney, Henry Veney and Per
ry Allmon have butchered 24o hogs
this year. The heaviest was one own
ed by Isaac Fover which weighed 400
pounds, net and the next the property
of Justice Trammel tipped the bean
at 800.
Mr.. James F. Thompson has pur-
chased the interest of Mr.. George
Thomas in the implement business
and the firm will now be Seibert &
Thompson. The fair presumption is
that business in that line will be
pushed at lively rate as Mr.. Thomp-
son is hustler
Mr.. J. w. Talbot, of Bunker Hill,
is Republican of the old school. He
is very proud of the vote he cast for
Lincoln and also every election since.
The best part of his Republicanism is
the fact that each of his six boys, and
his son-in-law, vote with and for the
party oil Progress and Protection.
May his tribe increase.
When it comes to first class hogs
J. H. Riner easily wins the prize. We
do not mean that he is at all piggish,
but OH the contrary know him to he
a man pays in advance for his Herald.
But about the hog: He butchered
one the other day which netted him
COZ pounds. OF course he is Re-
publican. No one ever heard of a
Democrat who could muster such a
hog as that.
Mr. J. d. Copenhaver is one of those
men the Herald loves. He takes the
Herald, Philadelphia Press, and New
York Press, all three, at a cost of only
S2.25, which he says, and truly, is
more reading matter than he ever be-
fore got for the money. In addition,
he sends the Herald and New York
Press to his son, in Baltimore and the
Cosmopolitan Magazine to his daugh-
ter in the same city. All of the above
costs him but S5.25. Such a man as
he is one OF those whom his children
can truly called blessed.
