LIVELY ON LOCAL MARKET
Sunshine Brings the People From the
Country to Town.

Country to Town.
The sunshine of the past few days
broke the quietude that had prevailed
on Market square during the cold
spell, the farmers coming to town
in great numbers with their potatoes,
corn, hay, etc. although the roads
are yet far from being in good coRdi-
ton. But they are better than they
were, and the folks in the rural dis
tricts embraced the first opportunity
to get to town with their products.
Farmers are all happy this year over
the healthy yield of their crops, but
many suffered in consequence of the
premature snow storm of last week.
which had disastrous eject on the
potatoes that had not been dug.
Visitors who are becoming conspic-
uous in the local market with the APP
proach of Thanksgiving are members
of the turkey family. The young
ones smile at the thought of spending
the holiday season in the city, but the
older ones have a sad look in their
countenances, for they have suspi-
cion of what is going to happen to them
"A fate similar TO that suffered By
their brethren of winter back, who
got it where towser wears his license.
