We saw In your paper that
Charles and Evert were going to
raise large crop of dried apples.
Boys, it Is a good investment.
Dried apples are now In great de-
m and. We would advise someiman
of great skill and moderately smart,
not too handsome or apt to get on
bender to invent some sort of a
machine to harvest their crop.
Boys. we ought to help c. and E..
along.
J. L. Thistle No. 2 on Willow
Fork came In a nice gas well.
P. B. Lowery was calling on
friends on WilIow Fork one daV
last week.

street, was either stolen, strayed or
went away and forgot to come back.
A reward of peck of dried apples
Is offered to the finder, when Chas.
harvests his dried apples.
J. &c. our road overseer, was
seen standing around the Thistle
No. 2 well. Think he Is contem-
plating a purchase. What we mean
Is he Is going to buy 1t and cut 1t
into post holes but he says he Is
going to keep a portion to crawl
into when the sun gets hot.
Uriah, one OF the stockholders
of the Buck Run Telephone Co..
was seen around at the Thistle gas
we'll. We think he Is going to buy
the old sand lines to make further
connections because he says wire
Is going to be expensive owing to
the great demands for future work.
J.E. says he would run line
from his closest neighbors but be
thinks the electricity would come
down the hill with such force that
he would be In iminent danger.

thinking of locating In HOMETOWN
but says he will not If DR.. JOSEPH
does not set up his Office here II
order to practice his profession.

way to Sistersville with his delivery
wagon. Butter milk Is In good de
mand.
If any of your people at Cant
well see old Rusty Joe" with his
head down, please slap him agains
the side of the head, because he Is
either studying develment or think
Ing, of something to write to the
Review.
We understand that there Is 9
secret society on Buck Run formed
and entered by some good ole
chucks for the express purpose o.
writing to the Oil Review. How
IdOOuLlI, UOyS!
As our neighbors are all good
hearted, accommodating people
we can not say anything about
them, for If we do they will find II
out, for they are wearing out two
dollars worth of shoe leather run
ming to borrow their neighbor's
papers instead of signing for II
themselves. Only one dollar pei
year. GUESS WHO.
We will say the weather looks
fine.
Well as I have been In winter
quarters for some time I did much
sleeping and had many dreams. ]
will tell you of some of my dreams
