Hart & Dackroth are the movers of
the crop. The Fruit shippers Asso-
citation will begin to move the crop
from their vineyards next Monday
and their actions will be watched with
interest. The object of the formation

satisfied with former returns when
selling on shippers commission.

Maurice Siegermeier, the Nauvoo

! it, which is glad news to his parents,

In some places in the south part of
this state the people paid twenty
cents per quart for dead ones and the
market became overloaded when the
price was reduced to ten cents on ac-
count of the scarcity of funds. The
cause of the reduction was not due to
the scarcity of the commodity. In a
short time 1t will be seen that the
catching of the flies was a mere waste
of effort if the Nauvoo flyologists are
! to be believed.
Very few Nauvoo Joy riders come
back with the ballast they took along
with them when they started.

Rupert Belts of Keokuk is time
keeper for the boulevard force OF
men at work about Nauvoo on Lake

Did the readers of the peoples fam
lily daily paper-the KeokulS Daily
Gate City-ever notice that no matter
7 how the other markets fluctuate, good

/ One of the chief commands of thu
Lord, if you remember, was Go
r make nest somewhere" There are
e whole lot of Nauvoo fellows not fol
t lowing the commandment. We woult
d rather buy automobiles.
q The law of compensation seems tt
: utilize a sliding scale. In some Nau
a VOC gardens we noticed some onion
that were dwarfed by the dry wealth
Ter. But they seem to have the multi
). Piled strength Of a giant of its kind
: Not so with the potatoes and roast
q ears, nuhbin Of corn is not a

1t has been said that fish is goo,
a as brain food. If this be true, on
i advice to number Of Nauvoo me-
+ and young fellows is to go out an
9 tackle a whale.
