Put up Saw Mill.

The recent visit of w. |. Wood
and w. ID. Sinclair to the upper
peninsula and their investigation
of the land and timber in
Ontonogan county interested those
gentlemen in the excellent possibili-
ties which was presented for busi-
ness opening and they took options on
320 acres of fine timber land. Last
week the deal was closed and Messrs.
Sinclair and Wood will go there and
install a saw mill for the purwose of
cutting the timber which consists of
a variety of the best kinds of hard
wood
The soil is rich and when cleared
will make as fine farming land as can
be fonnd in Michigan.
Their visit revealed the fact that
many farmers are locating in that
county some of whom have been their
number of years and one OF their
greatest needs at present is horses
with which to do their hauling, farm
work and numbering.

When + + Chapple came down to
the Office of his feed mill and bean
factory Monday morning he found it
in state Of confusion and at once
concluded raid had been made on
the place by sneak thieves. The
drawers to the desk were open and
papers strewn around promiscuously,
everything was upside down showing
that the prowlers had made close
search for valuables.
They had entered the building Sun
day night by crawling into the wheat
bin and from there into the room. In
order to make thorough work and see
what they were doing they burned
nearly 800 matches while prying open
desks and drawers. 1t is a wonder
the building had not been set on fire.
About one dollars worth of postage
stamps and some small Change and a
jack knife were taken. Had the raid
been made the night before they
would have secured about $50 az Mr.
Chapple had left that amount but
came down and got it in thF morning.

them in her heart. And the shep-

Editor says lie Is.
The Detroit Tribune, one of the old
est, most reliable and best newspapers
in Detroit, gives the country editors
a great puff, those of us who are too
poor to have Christmas pudding and
other holiday luxuries, may get some
consolation out of the fact that we
are first rate fellows.
A city editor must hsve certain
sort of ability. He must know in
stinctively how to handle news to the
taste of his readers, but let him 60
unframed into the rural field and he
finds himself in deep waters. 1t is the
country editor of level head and deep
insight who gets on in the world. He
is the universal authority, the univer-
sal friend, and he gets value received
for every good deed. His influence is
far-reaching in proportion to his
keenness of insight and his adaptable
ity to his work If he has the sympa-
thy and goodwill of all the people in
his district, it is because he has earn
ed and deserved them and they are
capital stock as long as he is able to
hold fast to them. The influence of
the country editor and his publication
is immeasurably great and always
must be in this land of reading people
for he is close to the people.
