The Hayti herald. (Hayti, Mo.) 1908-1922, 1917-02-22

ersville Tuesday afternoon, going
over to take load of cotton. He
informs the Herald man that in
taking over 100 pounds he re.
allied an extra profit of $500,
and that day there were at least
a half.dozen loads that had either
passed through Hayti or was
near, that also went to Caruth.
ersville. Seems as if the market
in Charlottesville is some higher
than here, and our merchants
are losing heavily by our nearby
farmers going to that city to sell
their produce, and incidentally
do some purchasing. Those buy.
ing here should pay as good a
as those in Cart uthersville, or we
may expect to lose much good
trade. In many instances the
farmers would rather come to
Hayti, even if the markets we're
the same, but they will not come
here at a loss. We hope that our
people will wake up to this
disadvantage and get busy.
Let's do something for Hayti in
1917.

Satul day night the store of
Lee Spence was again broke into,
and several articles were taken.
A short time after the occurrence
George Spain. age IL, and Alferd
Jordan, aged 18, were caught by |
Nightmarshal Giffin, and turned
over to Constable s. P. Oates to
place in the county Jail for trial.
Their depredations were first
discovered by w. w. Spain,
father of the younger fellow, and
who assisted in the arrest of
them. The father states he is de.
sirous of stopping his son from
future trouble, and thought this
the way to do it. They were
taken over to Charlottesville
Tuesday morning and turned
over to Sheriff Juden for safe
keeping. 1t is thought the older
one will draw strong sentence
in the penitentiary.
Max Kelley, princely fellow,
and a person one enjoys to meet,
is also a new Herald reader, and
we are glad to place his name on
the Herald list. He is the mana.
ger of the general merchandise
business bearing his name. Mr..
Kelley informs the Herald man
that big boom was Oh in Steele
and it was gaining in proportions.
He also said that his father was
also preparing to erect large
brick adjoining their present
building. Mr.. Kelley was quite
an enthusiast in favor of a good
paper for Steele, and we heartily
agree with him. His town needs
a paper and we think it would
support one nicely. Our hat is
Off to his town.

money, go to Charlottesville and see

other new Herald reader. He is
