LISTEN, TOWN TRUSTEES!

Last week | gave the taa,pay-
ers Of the, town Of West Liberty
a little information in regard to
how their money is being used.
This fragment of information. as
it were, has awakened a desire,
on the part of some people, to
know more about the fiscal af-
fairs of the town. They are be-
coming interested. They are
getting to believe that when SIS. :
90. per day is paid for a team
and driver there is not being
enough caution exercised in the
expenditure of the peoples mon
ey. They know that their taxes
are very high and have a lurking
suspicion that they are not get
ting value received in the way of
town Improvement. This being
the state Of their feelings, it is
but natural that they should de-
mand to know where and how
their money is heing spent. |
have repeatedly asked for "a
statement of the fiscal affairs Of
THE town for publication. Moth

limits of West Liberty, Gould
anything be fairer? Ifyou don't
accept this proposition the people
will think Well they'll think it's
too much trouble to make off the
statement. But it ought not to
be much Of Job, Still we want to
know it all. How much work
was done on certain streets and
what it cost. Who did the work
and how much they were paid,

Maks.un Of Rrollsrs.

A broiler should have good, plump
breast, broad back, clean yellow legs
and yellow skin, and small comb.
Such is the American epicure'a ideal
but9these requirements bar out such
breeds as Brahmas, Cochlns, Lang
shans, or any crosses on them, on ao-
count OF the feathers on their legs,
They bar out all white-skinned fowls,
and put a damper on all large-comb
birds like Leghorns, MinorcSs, etc
Such being the case, the Wyandottes
have easy sailing; and, besides, being
quick growers are more desirable fol-

Unripe Fruit.

A campaign is being waged in
Florida to prevent the shipment
of uripe oranges. Good prices
for early fruit tempt some ship
ers to put out oranges that are
unfit for human food. Unfortu-
nately, when this is done the re-
liable shippers suffer with the
others, forthe public naturally
desists from buying after once
getting unripe or frosted fruit.
