The Rose, the Maid, the bee,

He followed her into the garden, where
A rose bloomed sweet and red,
And he saw her stand beside it there
And gracefully bend her head
She kissed the beautiful, fragrant rose,
And he heard her gently sigh.
Then he followed after, upon tip toes,
And his heart was beating high.
he stood where the maiden had stood beside
The beautiful hlushing rose.
And he lovingly bent his head and sighed.
And he buried his mouth and nose
Among the petals so sweet, so rare,
That the fair maids lips had pressed.
But bumhiebee that had just got there
Proceeded to do the rest

Many of our farmers are busy just
now threshing their grain. Oats are
yielding from forty-fve to sixty five
bushels to the acre, and the grain is
excellent. The largest yield of which we
have heard is sixty five bushels, and
that was on the farm at t he county
home. Wheat is yielding from ten to
twenty-eight bushels to the acre and is
flrst-class. The promise for the corn
crop Is very encouraging and If frost
keeps off until Sept. is the yield will be
enormous, even for Iowa.

THE CENTRAL ABSORPTION.

lOltuUlWd SOuIlSI.J
The confirmation Of the rumor that
the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul
railroad is negotiating for the purchase
of the lines of the Iowa Central comes
like sweet music to the ears of Ottum-
wa business men, manufacturers and
wholesalers. No movement in railroad
circles for years is being so closely
watched as this. The Courier believes
that the citizens of Ottumwa have but
a faint idea OF the immense good such a
purchase will be to Ottumwa. 1t means
the elimination of the plan for which
the Ottumwa & Northern Railroad
Company was organized, without the
expense and trouble that the building
of such a line by local capital would en-
tail. 1t means, If the Milwaukee pur-
chases the Central, that it will imme-
diately use its new lines. thus throwing
omen to Ottumwa factories and whole
sale houses the entire northern half OF
Iowa, by direct route, for freight ship
ments, which they are now deprived OF
by the fact that the Central freight
service does not enter Ottumwa.

John Puyior, who has been under
treatment at the hospital for number
of weeks. has finally gone insane. the
results of brooding over his affections,
and Sheriff Nestle has taken him to his
home in Illinois. AT the time of being
hurt he was line man, and while re-
pairing the line west of town, between
here and Missouri Valley. plunged his
leg against the point Of a file. In draw
ing the file from the leg the point was
broken off and left Embedded in the
bone 1t was not long till serious symp-
toms developed and the man was re-
gartled in a critical state. The intelli-
gepce of the attending physician may
be estimated by the story told by the
sufferer. He said that he was told by
the doctor( y when the wound panied
him Just to get the file which was pulled
from his leg and hold it opposite the
place where 1t had pierced the member.
At the presence OF the broken tool the
broken fragment would respond and put
an end to the pain. 1t was after pro-
fessional care OF this sort that the poor
fellow was brought to Carroll in a state
almost hopeless. But he was brought
| through with skillful treatment, and
though cripple his life was saved. But
his troubles preyed upon his mind till
| it became deranged. We understand
that the doctor who treated him, on the
theory that fragments of the file
brought together We're a panacea fol
pain is regarded as a successful practi-
toner in his locality.

last night. He says that he never hat
a harder time with a man. The fellow

bent on getting away. At one time
George says. he jumped out of the win,
dow when the train was going at {
rapid speed, and all that could be hello
on to was his legs. But he was pulled
back and finally landed in his seat
Then when the sheriff arrived at Kan
kakee he had a time to get the man ad
mitted to the hospital. He was frs
required to prove that he was residen
of that state and this was done onl,
after diligent search, when a man wa
found who had known him within tn,
last nine months at that place. TIL,
sheriff says that he came near bein,
arrested for bringing lunatic into tn
state, which, is Enable offense. HI
says that he does not like the Job o

expected to be Joined in the holy bonds

they were gone Mr.. Poppenga came to
town and put Sheriff Freese on the
track Of the runaway couple. The
sheriff telegraphed Marshall Kozlovsky
to arrest and hold. He started on the
search and found them at the Union de-
pot. The officer arrived just in time. as
they had purchased tickets and in a few
minutes more they would have been

bench east of Fairview are a number
of orchards that have proven to be a
great deal more profitable for their
owners than grain raising. The sue
cess of these parties has encouraged
others to set out fruit trees, and dur
ing the past two years many young
orchards of apples, plums. prunes and
pear trees have been set out on the
bench lands.
Sheep Interests.

There are at present over 100000

crease is about % per cent. The car

and the future will witness a great in
crease in that industry. 1t is believed
that more than 100 acres of land will
be set out to trees next spring in SYRIA
cuse, South Hooper and vicinity.
A Growing Industry.
The canning business is becoming an
important factor in the industrial pro-
gress of Davis county. 1t is not alone
to the stockholders in such a concern
that the profits accrue, but to the pro-
ducerS of the raw material that the
factories use. Many a farmer whose
land formerly produced not more than
s. or SO worth of grain per acre an
nually can now market from SIS to 500
worth of tomatoes from an acre
The past season was not favorable
to the canning industry, by reason of
late spring and early autumn frosts
but Notwithstanding this, the factories
have put up an immense quantity of
fruit. 1t is estimated that there was
produced in Davis county this year
1000 tons of tomatoes. and that prob,
ably 10000 cans or $4,000 cases were

The water that was stored in East
canyon creek, Morgan county, during
early summer months, was released
early in August, just as the natural flow
from Weber river failed, and the supply

Agricultural Products.
Davis county is essentially an agri-
cultural section. Upon the products
of the soil the people depend for their
livelihood. The natural advantages that
are offered to the husbandman have
drawn together a thrifty. prosperous
and comfortable homes
and pleasant surroundings are to be
seen on every hand. The land slopes
gently to the southwest from the foot
hills of the Wasatch mountains to the
shore of the lake. thus adapting it par

Sanpete county occupies a proud po-
sition among the leading counties of
the state. In the early days the coun-
~ was christened 1.-The Granary of
Utah." and the matches fertility of
her soil, the industry of her sons and
daughters have proven her right TO the
title. 1t can truthfully be said that in
no place within the confines of the
great state of Utah will mother earth
forts of the husbandman than in San
pete county.
The population of the county, which,
according to the census of 1895, was
over $1,000, is now estimated at from
$4,000 TO 90 000. The principle industries
are agriculture, sheep raising, stock
raising and dairying.
Nearly the entire population Of the
county is engaged more or less in farm
ing The farms consist of small tracts
of land, varying in size from five to
forty-five acres. There are many
larger farms in different parts of the
county, but the small tracts prodomin-
ate. The titled land of the county will
aggregate about 10000 acres, and along
the Sanpitch river, which flows through
the entire length of the valley, are over
10000 acres Of meadow land.
County's Products.
The principal products are wheat,
oats, barley, potatoes and hay. Rye
is grown to some extent, and in some
parts of the county the high bench
lands produce excellent crops of corn
without irrigation. The annual wheat
yield averages over 100000 bushels, a
large part of which is manufactured
into flour by the local -four mills, of
which the county has nine. The an
