4 Deyer Bennett has given out the con-
tract to clear two acres of his farm. He
has also planted Winter wheat in his
front yard for an experiment.
The horse owned by Mr.. Brecht is a
noble, well built animal and we never
saw finer horse for farm. Mr.. Brecht
takes great pride in him. We do not
know his name but expect it is New
York.
Mr.. Hatch killed six pound rabbit on
his iarm last week. He had the skin
dried and will keep it for q trophy. Mr..
Hatch was greatly proud of his success
as his reputation as a hunter had fallen
since the bear hunt, but now he is again
candidate for chief hunter of the Estelle
Hunting Club.
| Mr.. Blewitt has returned to Camden,
his wife being disabled and the baby
small. Mr.. Blewitt thought it best to
| give out his land to be cleared and move
down in the Spring. He owns farms on
Eleventh Ave. We regret his departure
but expect him back in the Spring.
We have not eaten meat for the past
| month"; This is not due to sickness but
| We are trying to get into condition for
the large amount of game promised US
by the redoubtable hunter OF First Ave.
Messrs. Hatch and Jesse Risley, while
on their way to church Sunday; saw a
young deer. Mr.. RIsley states it was
fine looking deer-very broad shoulders
aud very neat and he is going to try to
| catch that deer and tame 1T. We wish
him success. Friend Jesse, handle it
| carefully, while they are shy they also
will kick if not treated well.
Mr.. Blundell, Jr., who is paying a
visit to his father, Richard BlundelI,
| arrived in this country lately and has
been in the employ OF the Gould family in
New York as d jockey. His main line is

and injuries received at it. He will find
it more pleasant jumping the stumps on
his fathers farm.

John A. Pierson, OF 1914 South 9th ST.,
Philadelphia. Mr.. PIerson, who is well
known in Philadelphia, being q member

Your correspondent has been asked
many times the question, What has
become of MIR. Shaner !" For the infor-
natlon of his many friends we would
state that Mr.. Shaner, last July, was
promoted to the position OF editor in
Chief OF the PLEAsANTvILLE PRESS, which
position he has ably filled. In our opin-
ION he has improved the paper very
much. While we miss HIM at Estelle he
can do more good where he is, and your
correspondent will try to fill his place at
Estelle.
'Camp Tuckahoe," as Mr.. Bolter and
Mr.. Brecht have named it, is prosperng.
Tue dwelling is getting in good shape
aud will no doubt be the finest house on
the tract for some time. Our friends,
BoIter and Brecht, enjoy camping ana
both are assuming the appearance OF
typical frOntersmen. Your correspon-
dent would like to publish the unwritten
history of the war as related at ''Camp
Tuckahoe". If we only had room
No contributions yet received for our
church building. There are 1916 farms
on our tract, and if each farm owner
would send % cents it would give us
$319, and with the $S5 on hand would
build us fine church building. Remtm-
ber it will be used as q school as we do
not wish the school board to build us
school house at cost OF less than $4,000
/ which we can hardly expect them to do
this year. The proposed church build
ing will be located at the corner of Cape
May and Cumberland Avenues, and will
be centrally located.
Mr.. Goff, our engineer in charge, was
in Philadelphia last week. He reports
the lines cut through and has a force of
men recutting the streets. Mr.. Goff,
who always looks well, never looked
better. Either the air vi Estelle is giving
him youthful vivacious look or it is the
results OF married life. We have won
dered what he proposed to do with seven
farms, but wise married man prepares
for the future All the little engineers to
the number of seven will have farm,
but we would advise friend Goff to buy
few more for Estelle is q very healthy
locality.

bright, is not Objectionable feed for a
horse, together with grain food, yet

ance of green food to obtain the best
results Small white and sweet pOta-
