Tobacco has been coming fast for

before has been delivered in Viroqua
and other packing points previous to
holidays. Warehouses are short of help
but doubtless will be supplied after
New Years.
Perry Widner of Webster delivered
IL bales to the Eckhardt warehouse
taken from less than fourth acre OF
land, which brought $50. 25, or equal to
1921 per acre. 1t is pronounced first
class quality.
Elmer Wilson's Webster neighbors
exchanged work, sorting 80 bales for
him in less than 10 hours by II persons,
taking the same from the poles. Hust-
ling there, sure.
Peter Midthun shipped his carload
crop from Buffalo county to this city.
He has grown there successfully for
several years.
