and browsing around, would be quite
the thing. Lancaster folks will miss
him but we surmise that his sworn
enemies the white grubs will curl their
tails with glee. r..
Paul Esser and Ben Waltz. two
prominent farmers from Glen Haven
neighborhood, were amonge5a party
of Glen Haven people who visited in
Lancaster Friday. They inspected
the model appointments at the county
farm and were strong in their
prsses of the manner in which the
the county cares for it's charges and
keeps things bright and clean. They
report that crop conditions are look
ing very well indeed over Glen Haven
way and that while the corn is
backward they have by no means given
up hope. Hay and small grain are
in fine shape, and the grubs are not
in evidence in their fields.
