Don't Lie to your Wife

Comedians of ability and an
author with the dyed-in. .the-wool
newspaper instinct. This is the
combination which has made q
big success out of Campbell B.
Casad's song farce, Don't Lie
to Your Wife,, which comes to
the Bentley Grand, Oct. Is.
Mr.. Casad is a former news
paper man-a reporter-and he
drew all the Incidents Of this fur
iously funny farce from the
every day happenings that came
to his attention while covering
assignment for his paper.
The complications such as a
married man being caught in the
midst of a party of much gayety
with chorus girls, by his wife,
are extremely comical, as they
are gradually unraveled, and they
are handled in characteristic
musical comedy style.
The chorus is an exceptionally
pretty one and is said to be cos
tuned in some very stunning
gowns.

age of = years. Mr.. Meadows had,
only short time before, been here
visiting his old friend and partner,

health. He was sick only two days
and his sudden passing was shock to
his relatives and friends. Mr.. Mead
ows was for many years resident of
this city having arrived here in April
1885 and remained until 1892. Mrs.
Meadows died here and was buried at
Mound Cemetery before the family

later their son was killed in a railroad
accident and he was brought here for
burial. Sunday afternoon Mr.. Mead
ows' body arrived here and was laid
to rest beside his wife and son. The
funeral service was read by Rev. Geo.

panied here by his daughter. Mrs. Ada
Wheeler, and his grandson and wife.
Mr. and Mrs Marshall Wheeler, also

nesota valley below Ortonville.
He says his wife and himself are

Grant County Apples

While large amounts Of fruits
are brought into the county
every year, and we may not yet
be very extensive exporter of
fruit, nevertheless our attention
was called to the fact that we
raise apples in Grant county by
seeing a consignment of the fruit
packed in barrels on the railroad
platform and which were being
shipped by Mr.. A G. Smith to
points west of the Missouri
river. The apples are of fine
quality, and Mr.. Smith says that
he has been doing this for sever
al years. Samples of our Grant
county apples were sent to the
corn and alfalfa exhibition at Or
tonville, and it would be hard to
find a finer looking fruit grown
any where, even in the favored
fruit countries. People coming
from the east are always greatly
surprised when they see the pro-
ducts of Grant county apple
trees. Many of the orchards
that were first set out were of
the fall varieties, and are not
winter keepers, but the winter
varieties can be grown just as
successfully, and when this is
done, the apple crop of the coun.
ty will be an important asset to
the farmers of this section.

Second Crop of Strawberries

Mrs. Ben Moser finished pick
ing her second strawberry crop
Just before the frost arrived last
week, and brought us in a clust-
er Of the vines upon which were
ripe strawberries. and bigOnes,
too green berries and blossoms,
all on the same vine. It's a
blessing that the frost does come
along and stop the growth Of

900 Bushels of Oats

Otto Hauer, who lives over in
the lake Albert vicinity,
says that he has no complaint to
make about his crop this year,
as from an eleven acre field of
oats he received over 900 bushels
machine measure, and as the oats
were of a particularly fine quail
ity they would run to nearly
1900 bushels by weight. Mr..
Hauer says it pays to have the
land well-prepared either for
corn or small grains.

that travel was avoided as far as
