An interesting bit of information
" Mich indicates prosperous conditions
OF the farmers at the present time as
compared with those of the past was
given by Louis II Lampe, prominent
resident OF bellevue. Thirty eight
year, ago as a lad of 10, Mr. Lamp-
assumed the responsibilities of his
lalher's estate on the Bellevue La
motto road. At that time the per onai
property sale on the Lampc farm
brought $1,000. Nine years ago when
Mr.. Lampe sold out to Nick Htntgeh
and moved to town, his sale amounted
to $500. Two weeks ago. Mrs. kath-
rcnu Hintgcn, widow Of the late pro-
prietor, realized $4.S50 from her sale
1t is of further interest, that at the
first sale which MIR. Lampe managed
as administrator of estate prtctlCally
all payments were made with notes; at
the second which he controlled as
owner, there were only "A few notes.
and at the last, when he acted in the
capacity of clerk. every payment was
made in cash.
