FARMERS
On the Ice Harbor Lot in Large
Numbers.

NulIlUeTSi
A striking picture of the times was
presented on the ice harbor lot on
Saturday. At least seventy-five teams
were hitched in that favorite place
and at the noon hour the place was
crowded. This is certainly evidence
of good times.
This is a good place for the farmers
to congregate when in the city and it
is near the business part of town.
The scene there on Saturdays is a
lively one and all day long the men
and women can be seen carrying bun
dies to their wagons.
Business in general was reported
good by all merchants Saturday. The
farmers are feeling good and Wash
ington county people are enjoying
good times,

Drugs either kill or cure. They are
either pure or Impure. They are either

its place In American history by the

month. this year, and nowhere have its
dramatic incidents been more ably set
forth than in the editorial departments
of the American Monthly Review of Re-
