They've Got No Kick Coming.

Investigation shows that the Hough-
ton county soldiers who are kicking
because their relief money has not been
paid, have no one but themselves and
their county relief commission to blame
for the delay. The claims received by
the auditor-general were in the worst
possible shape; none of them were ac-
companied by receipted vouchers OF
original claimants, as required by law,
and in the majority of cases there were
no items or dates whatever. The fear
that lower Michigan soldiers will ex-
haust the relief fund before others got a
.whack at it is groundless, fully half OF
the total already paid having gone to
upper peninsula men.

The first estate TO be affected by the
new state inheritance tax law Is that
of Lawrence Olsaver, of Webster.
About S23, 900 Of personal property was
left, and under the law the estate
must pay per cent on all over s.. 600.
which would make the tax about $50.
Belding is pretty busy place these
days. All the factories in the CITY

are being built to supply the demand.
The new railroad from Lowell will
also strike the city before long and

A Bangor farmer has a chance to

Among the other innocent pleasures

A couple of years ago Branch county
farmer gave his daughter pair of fine
chickens and promised to feed them
and their increase for four years if the
girl would take care of them. The lat
ter accepted the proposition, and now
has $64 in the bank, besides 200 chick
ems the old gentleman has got to
feed through the winter, with the pros
poets that the number will be increased
several fold before another winter rolls
around. The farmer says that before

There will be many Michigan farmers
before long who will conclude that
they don't know beans. The price of
the staple army food went to Sl.5O per
bushel short time ago, and although
that is more than any sane man ought
to expect to get for his crop, lots of
farmers who had big supplies onsh2nd
declined to sell, preferring to wait for
further advance of % to 80 cents per
bushel. Now the price has gone down
again, and like those who held out for
$1.75 for their wheat when the price
went TO $3.50 three years ago, they will
probably in the end sell for half what
they might have gotten.
