of getting reaper; he finally decided
that Mccormick was the kind of a
machine that would stand the racket
best in his part of the country. He
also purchased Hoosier drill and a
Moline disc from the Caldwell For
warding Company. Speaking about
crops, he said they were good. Mr..
Kennedy and his neighbors do con-
siderable trading in Caldwell, as they
find the stocks in this city such that
they can always get what they want.
He said that the Caldwell Forwarding
