Williams and Everett Clark own the
iong-eared, acknowledged and always
lamb like mule. Monday was seed
corn day. There has been selected
previous to this date by farmers a
number Of bushels. The late corn will
not do for seed as the frost caught 1t
in the milky stage before 1t was ma
tured. Harry Cain, the G. and o. sta
ton agent, has several bushels gather
ed and dried, ready to store away for
early planting. There is much specu-
lation relative to whether the seed Sc
lected at the present time is matured
enough to produce a strong germinar
ton after a winters storage. Rev
w o. Bills, former pastor Of the NJ
E. church here and now of the NJ. E.
church at Newcastle, Will preach In
the Methodist church here Sunday
morning. The Sunday school orchestra
will furnish the music. :. AT the three
