Outlook In Canada

Carroll people interested in farming
in Canada state that seeding was
about completed with the close of last
week and the prospects for a good big
crop never were better. The ground
is moist and rains are frequent and
seasOnable. The late spring has re-
suited in less acreage, but there is
nothing discouraging in the situation

The Herald is Correct.

There must be no factional fight a.

The only question should be as to hi,

stands. Such man must be nomin
ated to be elected -Eldora Herald.

To Elk Horn And KimbalIton

Accompanied by Mr.. G.. W. Marlin
the editor made business trip to Elk
Horn and kimballton, Monday after
noon. The roads were fine, the wealth
er pleasant, our company most agree
able and the business part successful
all of which made the outing one of
much pleasure. Mr.. Marlin enjoyed
the meeting of his old friends and we
were glad To form pheasant acquaint-
ance with many new people. Those
towns nestled down in u most fertile
valley. are we'll built and attractive.
The country round about is rich and
we'll improved inevery way. The large
barns and stately houses indicate the
highest prosperity of the farmers of
that section. The pastures and small
grain over there have suffered less
injury from the cold dry weather than
ia the neighborhood of Audubon. Our
inclination has been strengthened to
make more frequent visits to that part
of the country If we can manage to get
away from the Office to do so.

Snake Killing Kitten.

George Fornwald. substitute malt
carrier, Bloomsbury, owns cat which,
strange to say, will not catch mouse,
but spends its time in the yards hunt
ing for garter snakes.
The cat so far this season has
caught three snakes and brought them
to the house. and after laying snake
down on the porch it goes back again
in the yard to hunt for more. Two Of
the snakes the cat has caught were.
captured in one day, while the other
was caught day later. These three
are the only ones Mr.. Fornwald has
seen, yet some of the neighbors say
they often see the cat with snake
in its mouth.
Whether or not the animal would
tackle anything larger than garter
snake is hard to tell, yet from the
fight it puts up when it gets hold Of
one of these smaller species 1t is evi-
dent that it would probably be able
to get away with larger one. The
snake-killing cat is not very large and
is still nothing more than Kitten
