nection with Pittsburg. The deal in
wolves the sale of the trolley line from

same interests have line from Pittsburg

Those who have occasion to do much
overland travelling report the country
roads in about as bad condition as they
could well be at the present time, in some
cases being well nigh lmpassable. The
alternate freezing and thawing, rain and
snow, have left ruts and mudholes hub
deep where ordinarily the roads at this
season of the year would be in fair condi-
tion. In consequence of this state of
affairs little or no heavy hauling is being
done in this section.
While the sudden change in the
weather is anything but agre cable, yet it
will have tendency to retard the buds
from starting and will prove beneficial to
the fruit. The indications for an abund-
ant crop of all kinds of fruit are most en-
couraging and If there are no late frosts
kill the buds and blast the blossoms there
will be an exceptionally good fruit year,
says an exchange. In other words if all
conditions are just right there'll be heap
of everything needful to mank ind, for all
of which We'll all be devoutly thankful.
Lowe & Welch appear to have found
good we'll in their No. 3 on the County
Home farm, Hickory township, which
tapped the fourth sand Tuesday after
noon. The we'll was dry in the third
sand, in which the first two wells found
the oil, but after being drilled three feet
into the fourth sand, has over hundred
feet of oil standing In the hole. 1t is in
the nature of surprise, as no operator
seems to have drilled to the fourth sand
there heretofore. The fourth sand oil is
green and the third is amber. The sand
was found forty feet below the third, and
at depth of $50 feet.
