MIR. Ed. Hibbler of C~ooksville was in
town this week on his way to Meridian
to attend the Fair. He is the only man
we have met lately who gave a rosate
hue of the crop conditions. The story he
tells of half a bale to the acr and forty
bushels Of corr to the acre, sounds so
strange, we are still in doubts as to
whether he was joking or simply having
a pipe dream. He did bring a a of
corn to town that IS a fraction short of
IA inches long, that he says is just al
average ear and a fair sample.

Joins Mr.. Hibbler's, was a caller in the

acre that, they expected to get two
bales. Mr.. Permenter seemed to
be in earnest and perfectly sober. He
says, though. that Mr.. Hibbler was
away from home all summer and didn't
see the crop from the time it was
planted until it was gathered.
