The hot weather is the friend oil
the farmer, and incidentally every
body else, at this time of the year. Hot
days and warm nights are necessary to
the rapid and proper development OF

poor picking. At least it amounts to
the profits on the years work of many

Deputy Sheriff Farmer is without
doubt the champion revolver shot of
Wood county. He is very quick with
a gun and can center a spot as large as
a mans hand 200 feet away, seldom
missing mark and fires rapidly. The

woods west of the city he pinned an
ordinary envelope on tree about 100
yards distant and fired five shots in
rapid succession and not ball missed
the enYelope.-Tribune

cents per dozen and put two pounds OF
hen feathers in sack OF goose feathers
that she sold at 40 cents per pound.
The question for our youthful mathe'
maticians to decide is which one was
ahead in the deal.-Ex.
