The bean crop in this part of the
state promises to be the largest that
has been grown in years. There is also
much greater acreage this year than

q. w. Patton, editor of the Almont
Herald, comes forward with new
name for the Prohibition party. He
reasons that as all parties pick some
animal to represent their characteris-
tics it would be quite appropriate for
the Prohibitionists to be called the
"Bull Camels."

will have to have it first.handed or not

~, 746,9S4.61, while this year the books
show balance of available cash to the
extent of 1922, 60S.2l.
The old five cent piece will soon give
way to a newer rival. The new nickels
will have buffalo on the face and an
Indian on the reverse side. No infOrma-
| ton has been given out as to the sig
nificance of the new markings on the
coin but we are lead to infer that the
term liberty thereon is becoming rather
an atiquated one and that something
more in keeping with the speed of mod
ern times would be more appropriate.

The Peck Times of last week states
that battle royal is soon to be fought
between Roseburg and Yale over the
proposition of the Detroit, Bay City ~
Western railroad, otherwise known as
the Handy Bros road, going to Port
Huron by the way of Roseburg OF to
Detroit via Yale. The road will make
whichever place furnishes the most
bonus. Now, so far, there has been
little heard in Yale over the extension
of the ID. Il. &. 81 w. this far but when
it does come there will be no question
but Yale will pull the road here. We
will acknowledge that the old fable of
the lion and the mouse contains much
truth but the advent of another rail
road into this city is too live business
