Reed. Martin Wilmington was the
high sheriff Of the county who con-
ducted the sale. In 1907. Reed sold
the property 90 Peter Keefer and the
deed Of sale was recorded on Septem-
ber which makes the deed Just one
hundred wears old today. The land
today is owned by Jacob Keefer. a
grandson of Peter Keefer. the original
Keefer who bought the farm and who
is the father of Calvin Keefer. Other
grandchildren Of Peter Keefer are
Mrs. George W. Stroh, Sunbury; Mrs.
Amelia McCoughan, Rushtown; Peter

During the time that Christopher
Reed owned the property he built the
log house, which is still the home on
the farm, and although over one hun
dred years old it seems to be still as
solid and substantial as when built.

An Attack on Beans.

One of these wise doctors, one who
belongs TO the profession that we are
apt to despise in health and admire i'll
sickness. comes TO the front with the
distressing statement that there is
poison in beans, that in an oil which
is component part of the succulent
vegetable there Turks a poison which
irritates some stomachs and is very
bad for many. This is astonishing
news. 1t is scarcely credible and it
looks to US more like covert attack
on Boston and its culture than an eff
fort to regulate the diet of the peo-
pie.
Beans haye been eaten as staple of
diet for unknown ages. Herodotus.
who introduced us to asparagus, also
tells of the bean and its wide use as
food. II grows wherever anything will
take root and is not only nutritious
but in every way most convenient
form of food. To hold after all these
centuries that beans contain poison is
either saying a good deal for the hu-
man race which has survived so much
of it, or else very little against
poison that must be we'll nigh innocu-
Gus. In a former age beans were the
staple diet of the New England under
graduates. They were supposed to de-
velop the intellect and make for gener-
al culture. To this day Boston eats
baked beans on Sunday much more
regularly than it goes to church, or
certainly much more unanimously. If
there be poison in beans it may &C.
count for some of the mystical philo-
sophy of the modern Athens, but we
are disinclined to this belief.
Our voice is still for beans. They
can be eaten in many ways and well
coined at the breakfast table, at lunch,
at dinner and exc at the midnight re-
past. An attack upon beans is an at
tack upon cur social system which we
cannot tolerate. David HaIum was
wont to say that a moderate amount
of tleas was good for dog because it
kept him from brooding over the fact
that he was dog. In the same way
moderate amount of poison in beans
if any exists-may be good for man,
since he is kept from brooding and by
the same token is inspired to loftire
ambitions. Away with this gastron-
omic malefactor from the earth We
must eat beans and we must die, but
we see no connection between the two
facts. Pretty soon this fellow will be
telling us that the gods wear wooden
shoes. Is there no institution, ancient
or modern, physical, intellectual or
spiritual, that is safe from the attacks
OF iconoclasts? Let the voice of Boston
now be heard throughout the land.

Farm Earnings Billion More.

Upward of 81. GOO, 600, GOO more than
last year will be the American farm
ers' earnings in 1907. Farm produc-
tious this year will be about ten per
cent. less in quantity than in 1906.
which was the bumper season, but the
crops of 1907 will fully equal the aver
age yields for five years prior 10 last
season. The preliminary review of the
crops of the year, 70 be published this
week by the American Agriculturist,
also emphasizes that because of de-
creased quantity and increased price,
the leading staples this year will net
over $500, 600, 600 more 10 the farmers
than last year, while their total gains
may be almost twice as great As the
vast industrial prosperity of the last
fifteen years has been based upon the
agricultural review which characteriz-
ed 1S93-91, the American Agriculturist
predicts an even better era of good
times now than in the recent past be-
cause of the marvellous gains in agri-
culture. II says: The farmer was new
er in so healthy a position as he is to-
day-tinancially. socially, politically,
mentally, spiritually. The increase in
the value of his real estate has been
prodigious. He owes less money than
ever before He has greater assets than
ever. Again the farmers wants are
greater He is in the market for more
and better stock, farm implements,
household goods and other merchand-
Use. He recognizes the extra profit that
accures from the use of better equip
ment and better methods in his bust
ness aud in his home. The wheat crop
this year will approximate 625, 900, coo
bushels, l50, 600, 600 less than last year.
Corn promises to be within five per
cent, as much as last year but two or
three exceptions the biggest yield in
history

PhilosonhY of Hatred.

Said one man to another as a third
man passed them and walked on down
the street There goes a man hate -
And an expression of hatred in his
mind passed over his face, showing
that he was all stirred up inside.
That's too bad, " said his compan-
ion.
The man who hated man turned in
surprise to his friend and exclaimed I:
"Why is it too bad?"
meau it's too bad for you | don t
know the man you hate. But no mat
ter who the provacation is, | know
that the man who hates another man
suffers more from that hatred than the
man he hates. That's why said ii is
too bad. learned this through an ex-
perience of my own. "
And then he told story of a man
who hated him. 1t appears that many
years ago man had perjured himself
on the witness stand in court in test
flying against him. And ever since
the time the perjurer had hated the
man he had attempted to a injure by
perjured testimony.
II didn't hate the man at all. =" he
said. But kept hearing from time
to time of remarks he made about me.
and Of how he hated me. Except when
something occurred to.call my atten-
tion to it wasn't conscious Of the
fact that I was being hated. But the
man who did the hating was conscious
OF it. He was carrying it around with
him all the time, and every time he
saw or even heard of me his hatred
began to holland all to his discom
fort not at all to mine. Then | dis
covered the philosophy that now makes
me very comfortable l simply haven't
time or inclination to hate anybody. /
didn't want to punish myself. In 9TH
er words, I'm too selfish to hate any-
body or anything
OF course it sounds sweet wnen Won
listen to the praise of your friends.
but 1t may do you more good to find
out what your enemies say about YOU.
Possibly some of it is the truth.
