A scheme for the identifying of the
country surrounding Belle Center is
being agitated by T. n. Harrod, says
the Belle Center Herald Voice. The
plan is that trees. preferably cataba,
be planted ON each side of the pixies
leading into the town for a distance of
three miles. The cost of the trees
would be about $40 per mile, and it is
argued that the improvement would
enhance the value of the farms several
times that amount.
Many farmers have signitied their
willingness to make the investment
and others will be talked to about the
matter Immediately that the work may
be done this fall or next spring.
During the period of mourning fol-
lowing the death of relative the Gus
tom has always been TO adopt some
special style of stationery to indicate
the occasion. It is no longer the thing
to send out letters in black bordered
envelope, nor is it sufficient to use the
stationery of violet hue. The stamp
must match the paper. AS Uncle Sam
does not provide violet stamp OF the
two-cent grade 1t is considered the
correct thing to use a three-cen
stamp, which is Of a dark purple hue.
