a night passes by. according to re-
ports. that there were not some lights

For the benefit of the farmers who
have gone back to making dairy but
ter and who used to bring their
cream to the local creamery it might
be stated that dairy butter is bound
to decline in price soon. Through
the winter months the market holds

the butter makers will be glad to re-
ceiye the high prices for cream Of
fered by the local creamery. Man.
ager Jones, the new butter maker, is
making every effort to secure the
steady run of cream supply and de-

The other evening a certain resi-
dent was walking along Dewey av-
enue in the twelve hundred block
when his hat was caught by one of
the sharp prongs on a boxelder tree
and hung there. The hat was a stiff
black derby and was practically
ruined. Reports state that it is not
an infrequent occurrence to see la
dies hats caught up by the hanging
branches Of trees overhan ging the
sidewalk on this street. No serious
complaints have as yet been made
but it is high time that something
was done to cease the destruction of
personal property from this source.
Some one has suggested that the
street superintendent take the matter
in hand trim the trees and have
same charged to the property owner.
