Harvest hands seem to be rather
scarce.
Geo. Edwards was transacting
business i'll the city Friday.
Hot, hotter, hottest, is the condi-
ton of the weather nowadays.
A number of machines started
gathering the golden grain this week.
The merchants are kept busy
these days waiting on the harvest
trade.
Milton F. Brown of Topeka was
transacting business in the city last
Monday.
Mrs. Van Duran spent several
days visiting with Mrs. John Gray
this week.
Mrs. Edwards has been quite sick
for the past week but at this writ
ing is some better.
The ice cream supper was fairly
we'll attended last Friday night and
a liberal collection was made.
Miss Mary Eliason arrived from
Nickerson last Saturday where she
has been attending school for the
past few months.
Frank Nett moved his house hold
goods to the Palmer property and
will sojourn in the city for a while.
We are glad to number Frank among
US again.
Ben Haywood, one of our pros
porous north side farmers was in the
city Friday laying in a supply of
groceries preparatory for harvest.
Ben always takes front row when
it comes to wheat.
Rev. Robinson preached the me-
moral sermon of Mr.. Oliver Nor
man last Sunday morning at II
O'Clock. Mr.. Norman was born
August 20, 1884 in Clark county
Indiana and died June, IS, 1908.
He was one of Meade County's
oldest settlers and excellent neigh
bors and his departure will be great
ly missed by all. He was model
christian man from whom anyone
might take pattern after and be sure
of entering the Heavenly Kingdom.
The text from which the address
was taken was:
ist corinthians SO Eph 2:Io
lst Corinthlan. 6:9.

Everything of interest and importance to
the life and comfort of a home-maker in the
Summer time from golf to bathingsuits and
the various ways of serving Cherries, is touch
ed upon in the Midsummer Number of the
New Idea Woman's Magazine. ''Parasols
and Summer umbrellas are reviewed by
Katie Wallace Clements; Frances Dana sets
forth the vogue in Summer gloves and AIitts,
and Walden Fawcett tells How to make
Porhcoes Attractive. ''The Foutah of July
in Luzon" is charmingly described by L.
Mclaughlin, and page Of humor delight
fully illustrated is an excellent feature for the
hot weather. The patterns set forth the lates
vagaries of fashion, and stories are extra
ordinarily interesting.

Mondays Review.

Estimated receipts of cattle to-
day, 5000, which is our heaviest
run since the flood. The bulk
of offerings consisted of killing
grades, with only few stockers
and feeders here. The early
market was active on the light
and medium weight fat steers at
strong to higher prices, but
later, with liberal supplies of all
kinds, market weakened some
and was only steady at last
week IS close, with a few sales 5
to 10 cents lower. Heavy cattle
were hardly in as good demand
as last week, but most sales
were made at steady prices.
Our Mr.. Curtis sold the top
cattle today, 20 steers averaging
1921 lbs, at S5.15. Bulk of sales
today, S4.65 to $500 best grades
of butcher stuff in better request
at slightly higher prices, and
others weak. Top cows sold at
81. 10 heifers $40. Veal calves
shade lower, with $5.75 as the
extreme top. Only a limited
supply of stockers and feeders
here; spectators nearly all want
ed cattle, and the supply was
well cleaned up at steady
prices. More could have been
sold readily.
Hogs: For the first time
since the flood, all the hog buy
ers were on the market this
morning, but sorry to state that
they failed to put any snap into
the market, on the contrary,
prices declined 10 to Is cents
Market opened to 10 lower,
and closed dull and 10 to Is low
err. Receipts estimated around
5000; we quote the bulk of sales,
S5.45 to S5.55; top sale $6.62H
Good light hogs of 100 to $50 lbs.
we're in best demand, and sold
strong compared with the best
heavy hogs. Decline at other
markets for the day the same as
here.

before September 1, 1903, as re-
CURED by rule 1. If not so done
the sheriff of the county in which
the cattle are located is required

with membership of ZOO, held its
first meeting under its new charter
Monday evening, and elected board

ON THE LAKE.

The first of the delightful excursions
on Lake Champlain, which are such
a pleasant feature of central and west
ern summer life, will occur on Tues
day, June 16, AT that time the Gen.
tral Vermont Railway will run spec
ial train from Barre to Burlington
where the steamer Chateaugay of the
Champlain transportation Co. will be
taken for five hours cruise among
the islands of northern Lake Cham
plain, st. Albans Bay being the op-
jective point. The special will leave
Barre at 7:10 a. M, Montpelier at 80
O'Clock. Leaving Burlington the
steamer will cross the lake in north
westerly direction. During the trip
out many historic points will be
passed, among them the scenes of
Benedict Arnold's and Commodore
McDonough' naval battles with the
British in the war of 1912. Bluff
Point with it's great summer hotel
and Plattsburg with its army post are
among the other interesting features
of the trip. From Plattsburg the
steamer will sail eastward, passing
through "The Gut" a narrow channel
between North and South Hero, into
the magnificent waters of the "Great
Back Bay" The return trip will be
made along the west shore Of South
Hero past several beautiful islands.
Burlington will be reached at O'Clock

an hour later. The fare for the round
trip has been fixed at the low price of
81. 25 from Barre, Montpelier, Middle
sex and Waterbury, and the rate for

MONTPELIER BRANCH.

About twenty-five Montpelier gran
ite manufacturers met at James M.
Boutwell's Office on Tuesday evening
to further consider the proposition
of forming local branch of the Barre
Granite Manufacturers Association.
This movement was started at meet
ing held in February when tempor-
airy organization was formed but the
exact lines on which it should be con-
Quoted were not laid down until
Tuesday evening. At that time a
proposition from the Barre association
was submitted and adopted. In sub
stance this is: The Barre association
will pay from it's treasury the sum of
81. 30 toward the preliminary expense
of forming branch here. The Mont
pelier manufacturers will retain their
membership in the Barre association
and be allowed to participate in it's
deliberations as heretofore. All dues
will be paid to the Barre association
as in the past but seventy-fve per cent
OF the same Will be returned to the
Montpelier branch in the future.
w. S. Smith, J. S. Haley and E. A.
Sweeney were appointed a committee
TO secure quarters and make the nee
essary arrangements for formally or
ganizing the branch. 1t is expected
that a meeting will be held in about
two weeks for the purpose Of complet-
ing the work
The purpose of the local branch is
to facilitate dealing with purely local
questions. Here tofore when anything
has come up for discussion or settle
ment it has been necessary to go to
Barre, thus entailing considerable
loss of time. In the future these mat
ters can be settled at home

Letter to w. A. Stowell.

Dear Sir: We suspect you'd like
the tale, how woman beat two hard
ware dealers in Girard, Pa.
We tried our best to get those mel
to sell Deyoe lead-and- zinc in that
bright town; and failed. Reluctant
ly took Mrs. E. r. Bowman, druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint
for more than S1.25 gallon. Mrs.
Bowman can. She has sold al out all
the paint. that has been sold there
since.
She knew Devoe; had sold our art
lists materials Had some sense and
force, besides; she easily learned that
cheap is dear in paint, and told the
people.
Mr. Burt Young bought gallon
Devoe for rooms that had always
taken gallon; had half left.
Mr.. E. H. Hiler, jeweler. painted
Devoe, and says it goes further-no
particulars.
Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought it
expensive before he bought it
brought back nearly half or his paint,
and said it was he cheapest JOB he
ever had.
Mrs. Bowman reports universal sat
isfaction. So much for cheap paint
town with bright woman in it.
Yours truly,
+. W. Devoe q Go.
P. S. Abbott &Bailey sell our paint.
