me. Now whatrl you have?" The
dapper little travelling man said he
was not very hungry and a CUP of
coffee and some hot cakes would do.

How Fast Does Corn Grow?

We often hear this. question asked,
but have never been able to give a
satisfactory answer. Here are few
figures that were handed us by far
mer who lives east of town. July
9Th at one o'clock he commenced to
measure the growth of stalk of
corn an took measurements at given
hours for one week. He found that
from July Sth at one o'clock until
July 18th at the same hour the corn
had made a growth of 81 inches, or
an average of a little over " in
ches day. For the first thirty hours
of the time the corn's growth was
8A inches. The longest growth for
any one day was six inches and the
shortest growth for one day four and
three-quarter inches. During the
time the measurements were taken
the weather was hot, as conse-
quence the growth was rapid and
even.-EIgin Echo.

Pearl Brings $29SO.OO.

The Atkinson pearl mentioned in
our last, was returned to Theodore
Kerndt and payment stopped on his
checks by Mr.. Young, the buyer, last
week, and it then became known that
the pearl had sold for $29S0. AT
first Mr.. K. refused 10 accept the
gem and it laid in the express office
for several days, but he finally con-
cluded that rather than have any
trouble with Young who apparently
needs a guardian, he would resell it,,
which he did On Monday of this week
at price in excess of that first OBJ
tanned. So the Atkinson pearl goes
down in history as by far the most
valuable gem of the kind yet found
in the Mississippi river and it also
established the fact that we have To-
cal talent here that can buy and sell
pearls.
Gale Carlyle of Brownsville, Min
Desota got 1886 from H. F. Gauniz
for a forty-fve grain pearl last
Thursday which but for some slight
imperfectior would have brought
double that amount. Another evil
dence that local buyers can handle
business of this kind if given an OPP
portunity.-Lansing Mirror.
