ern part Of the State and laid them
beside those of her loved ones who
had gone before.
Last Sunday morning MIR. Lou
Beason, from Chicago, arrived at the
Station for short visit with his old
time friend and acquaintance, Mr..
Mace Gill. These gentlemen were
neighbors in Cass county many years
ago, and they employed the time
while he was here talking over old
times. Mr.. Beason is the man who
laid out the town of Anita.
Mr.. j. Z. Moore has lately been
bothered with polecats, who persist
ed in Juggling off his chickens, and so
he concluded TO serve them real
mean trick. He built an attractive
hens nest, then slightly broke the end
of few fresh eggs, inserted a small
piece OF arsenic in each one and then
awaited the result. Mr.. Polecat ate
the eggs and Mr.. Moore's poultry
ard has been safe ever since.
We met Robert Sizer at the Station
Oh Tuesday morning and he was tell
ing us something about the reunion
of his old regiment, the Twenty
Fourth Iowa Volunteer Infantry,
that was held at Iowa City, this
State, last week, Wednesday. He
tells us that during his short stay
there he met Captain Rigby, who
lives at Marion, near Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, Captain Longlee, who now re.
sides at Vicksburg, Mississippi, and
many other comrades whom he had
not seen before for forty three years,
and that this reunion was one of the
most enjoyable events of his lifetime,
as he sat among his comrades about
the camp-tires spinning yarns. Seated
upon the stand among the boys who
wore the blue was one Major-G General
Lee, who wore the gray and who was
one OF the officers commanding before
Vicksburg at the time General Grant
besieged and captured that city. He
was given such warm reception and
after repeated calls for speech said:
81 had expected to sit here, to one
side an, unnoticed spectator of your
meeting, but the reception you have
rendered me this day completely I'M
mans me and the thoughts of it
will never fade, but remain fresh in
my memory" He resides at Vicks-
burg. Mississippi, and although Pres
ident of the State Agricultural Col
lege, of Mississippi, when the time
came for them to say a final farewell,
at the close Of the meeting, his voice
grew husky, forbidden tear forced
its way down his cheek, and
fervent pressure Of the hand was the
only way that the good man had of
saying goodbye to his northern
brethren. Mr.. Sizer tells us that that
was the largest, in point of numbers,
reunion of his regiment he ever at
tended, and that all departed for their
homes vowing to be present at the re-
union next year, God sparing their
lives.

MIR. l1awkins as a Hobo.

]. R. Hawkins, superintendent of the
Detroit and Lima Northern railroad,
while east few days ago was looking
with considerable interest at some
rails that had been laid by machine on
the Pennsylvania railroad track. He
had been travelling and did not look
very spruce. He was also shy on a
shave. His hands were dug into his
pockets as if he was trying to find a
nickel. He was startled by voice say
ing:

said, "but I happen to be railroad

I'll give you a trip over our road.

The hobo stuck the card inside the
band of his hat, muttering: "Wud'n

benediction started on his hoof to
jamestown to catch the Erie.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intlamed con-
ditiQn of the mucous lining of the Eu-
statian tube. When this tube is infiam-
ed you have rumbling sound, or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to it's normal condi-
ton hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an infiam-
ed condition Of the mucuous surfaces.

plow Now For Next Years wheat

| Through the Kansas Farmer, Pro-
fessor George L. Clothier advises the
wheat growers of that state to begin
the preparation of the soil for next
years crop at once There is no accur-
| ate way to calculate the losses that all
of our farmers annually sustain from
| insufficient and untimely preparation
| of the soil, but there is no doubt that
| these losses amount to millions of dol
lars every year.
| No plant can grow and thrive in a
seed bed consisting chiefly of dry clods
and air spaces. The plow very seldom
leaves the soil in proper condition for
a seed bed. In order to bring it to the
desired condition, the soil must be pull
verified. fined, settled and supplied
with quantity of moisture sufficient
to promote vigorous plant growth. This
condition cannot be secured at this
time of the year by preparation that
lasts only few days.
Therefore, it behooves the farmers to
get the prospective wheatfields plowed
and narrowed as soon as possible in or
der that the preparation Of the soil
may be continued long enough to put
it in the finest possible condition. If
the land is plowed now, any rains that
fall between now and the LIST Of Sep
TENDER will be largely stored in the soil
and fine seed bed will be the result.
The weathering of the soil will also
benefit it by setting free large quaint
ties Of plant food for the use Of the
terminating and growing wheat plants
in the fall months.
Early blowing for wheat makes the
crop doubly sure and also gives the
farmer the satisfaction that he is push
ing his work instead of the work push.
ing him. Farmer, plow early!

Frost Is Good for the Corn.

experienced its first frost last night and
reports show that it was general

SIT will not hurt corn at all. Even if
the corn was ten days later than it is
no injury would result. The fact of
the matter is that a light frost at this
time OF the year may easily be Of as
sistance to the corn instead of a detri-
ment.'

Japan's Cheap Postal service.

The cheapest postal service in the
world is that of Japan, where for 2
sen-about seven-tenths of penny
letters are conveyed all over the en-
pire. This is the more remarkable
when one considers the difficulties of
transit over the mountainous and ir-
regular country, where the railway is
still in it's infancy, and where wagons
can only pass over some of the princi-
pal roads and only a few of the coast
stations are connected by steamers.
Originally clocks had only the hour
hand, but the minute was added later,
as it became fashionable to make the
dials as decorative as possible.
