The remark is frequently made that
the present. is a very backward spring;
that it is at least three weeks behind
average. Apropos to the subject,

sissippi river from'Savana to Sabula to

Eye editor" was asked the other
day if he ever, saw. a bald-headed
woman, and replied: We never did.
Why'should we? Nor we never saw a
woman Waiting around town in her
shirt sleeves with a cigar stuck be-
tween her teeth stepping into every
saloon she saw. We never saw her 90
fishing along the Wapsie with a bottle
in each pocket, sit on the damp ground
all day and go home drunk at night.
Neither have we ever seen a woman
yank off her coat, spit on her hands,
and say she could whip any man in
town. No, God bless her, she amt
built that way.-Oxford Mirror,

In conversation with Gen. John Y.
Stone he informed us that the pros
poets had never before been brighter
for an immense apple crop, than they
were this season. Gen. Stone said the
season was now sufficiently advanced
to determine in a large part what the
crop was going to be. 1t now is too
late for frost to do any damage and as
for the insects there was not much
probability that they would do any
large amount of injury this year.
Continuing Gen. Stone said he never
knew the ground to be in better condi-
'tion o the trees 80 fall*of, vitality.
The trees are usually fu3llofbloom the
only exception in the Generals entire
orchard is the. Iowa. Blush. These
apples are shy boomers this spring.
