I'VE are simply meeting an econo-

take the lead in an effort to band

The annual report of the Wash

is of value because it shows what
is being done in this county in the
canning business which, in company
with the dairy industry, promises to
assure the future Of this region.
This cannery closed December Is,
operating for SIX months in the
year, and in that time canning 273
tons Of produce, about $4,000 cans.
This is the cannery's second year.
and it is declared that the seasons
work shows a good profit
One interesting thing in connec-
ton with the years activities is the
fact that while $4,000, approx
mately, was expended by the can
merry. it was almost equally divided
between labor, produce and cans, all
three amounts being about $4,000.
Another fact of interest is that
more apples were canned than any
other product, 1856 tons. The follow
ing number of cases Of various pro-
duct were handled: Apples, 1853;
beans. 1859; cherries, 252; beets,

Story About a Farmers Boy.

Once upon time there lived IN
Tuscarawas county, Ohio, farmers
boy who had dream that was with
him sleeping and waking-a dream
of greatness.
When he went for the cows, with
the frost diamonds glistening on the
little cobwebs in the grass, with the
crows cawing on the old stump in
the back lot and the rising run paint
| ing long lines of gold or blackness
| through the woods, he would often
rout a COW up from a fence corner,
sit down, put his bare feet in the
warm place where she'd lain, and
dream that dream.
| Often, lying on his back at the
noonin' hour, with the grasshoppers
lacking in the timothy about his head,
he'd look up at the blue sky and
dream that dream.
| Almost always at night, when the
rain battered on the shingles and the
mice rustled in the seed corn hang
ing from the rafters, he'd compose
himself on his husk mattress and
dream that dream Of greatness.
He was a big, strong boy, and, some
said, pretty thick headed. but inside
of him he had mighty purpose
that means much, sometimes for good
som etimes for evil.
Well, this farmers boy had found
that he could throw ball with grea
