Timothy hay is the finest III the land and would undoubted- ly sell before harvest again for at least S1O ton. Figure out what the returns would be from this crop at this price and see if farming doesn't pay in this country.

Ifyou have wheat attend to this matter; it will be worth money to you.

Aside from the candidacy of Sheriff Grlm the field appears to be blank, so far as this end of the county is concerned.
