Sept 2.-Harvest and haying is over
and the threshing machines are near
ing this part of the country. The
men are about all gone West, together
with a few of the woman, which
makes the country seem lonesome and
in want of settlers. Il.
. Crops of all kinds are poor except
hay, which is good. We will not
venture guess at wheat, oats or
barley, but will say that corn and
potatoes are much below the average.
Mr.. Dake of Charles City, Iowa, has

daughter, Mrs. Nancy Brown, and
husband. Mrs. Gish could not endure
city life. Mr.. Gish is now on the
sick list.
so Tar as we can learn now, health
is pretty good throughout the COM
munity. :.
We want rain and lots of it to
enable us to start blowing.
We read lately of several corpora
tions shutting down and throwing
thousands of men out of employment
until Mr.. Taft is elected president,
which we consider the worst kind Of
black mails. We would suggest q
remedy. It is this: A law to be
lenacted to punish all corporations who
are guilty of such conduct with con.
fscatlon of their entire plant OF
plants. The general government to
take over the property and continue
the business. We think that such
action by the government would soon
put an end to that kind of coercion.

that would.
