A Story for the Little Folks.


"Old Bob" is the name of a
horse reared from a colt by Mr..
Baltzer Decker of Licking Creek
township.
Bob was foaled in March, 1872,
and spent his entire lifetime with
Mr.. Decker, whom Bob found to
be a good, kind master.
Mr.. Decker had many offers
from persons who wanted to buy
Bob, but he never felt like selling
so good an animal.
Bob had a habit of taking a
playful race when he was turned
loose, and last Saturday when
Mr.. Decker opened the stable
door to let him go to the trough
for drink, Bob thought it would
be fun to run around the straw
stack few times just for exer-
else.
Little did Bob think that dan
ger lay in his path; but it did.
Just as Bob was making short
turn his feet came on ice and in a
moment Poor Bob had fallen and
was so seriously hurt that his
master thought it merciful to
have him shot and thus end his
suffering.
Old as Bob was, he made his
trip to Harrisonville every Sat
urday, and all the boys and girls
along the way knew him, for
with Bob came the mail.
One of Bob's faults was, to shy
at trifies, but anything worth
being scared at caused him no
alarm, a traction engine or a loco
motive gave him no more concern
than a big toad.
Mr.. Decker's grandchildren
will miss Old Bob; for visit to
"grand-pap's" was not complete
unless they had a ride on Old
Bob's back.
Bob was faithful animal, and
deserved better luck; but we
may learn from it, that most seri.
Gus accidents may occur when
we are least expecting them.

Butter by the Ton.

During the two years ending
December 81, 1901. Mr.. D. L.
Grissinger, at his creamery in
this place, manufactured over 7S-
tons of butter. To produce this
required 1865 tons of milk, for
which he paid the sum of $751;
254.97. This money went into
the current of home circulation.
To get this much cash out of
wheat, it would require 40 farm
ers each to sell over 500 bushels
a. year at rs cents bushel. These
figures speak for themselves.
Why not feed more cows and
fewer horses?
