drew two cords of four-foot hard
wood from his place to the village,
distance of five miles, at two loads

below the knee. DR.. Barrows reduced
the fracture.

Miles, Mcmahon { Co., G. F. E Idly

dairy packages and products at the
session OF the Dairymen's Assn, at

wire in advance this time.
Some enormous loads of logs are
being drawn into the Burt mill yard
these days from the Forks. Should
the present fine shedding continue for

greatly lessen the waste in saving.
