HERE AND THERE.

Il Apropos of the Miley meeting,
several local men were discussing the
local religious situation last SUNDAY
morning. That is they were talking
it so far as church attendance is con
cerned. One man said If everybody In
Yorkville would go to church at one
time that there were not enough
churches in the town to hold 'em all
and he attributed this as the reason
why some did not attendAout OF
Difference to others so to speak:
Another man argued that the seating
capacity of the churches was quite
suncIent to accommodate 'em all and
then some: Both agreed, however.
that there are mighty few people In
this town who don't go to church some
time or the other,

ed an amount sufficient to pay the cost

Missouri, Illinois and iowa, especial,
Iy Missouri and Iowa, are experiencing
a land bomb such as was never before
known in the history OF that section OF
the United States, according TO Mr..
John S. James, who has recently re-
turned to Yorkville, after spending a
couple of months out lin the middle
west buying horses and mules. People
are flowing into those states from
other states and are paying, fabulous
prices for farm lands while renters
are gradually being forced out Of the
country. Crops in that section-wheat,
oats and corn are above the average
and food of gold is being realized
from the harvest. According to Mr..
James 5000 and $500 per acre is a
common price for farm lands and in
some localities sale of farm lands at
81, 600 per acre have been recorded.
The west is looking up in a light OF
plenty and prosperity that was never
known before.

bad about sucking eggs. A neighbor

were awakened by a SON of the
neighbor who said pa says to please
put up your dog; he's sucking dur duck
eggs Pa should not have said IT,

put our dog in our pasture. That
made the neighbor mighty mad and he
made a dead fall trap to. kill our dog.
About two days afterward. the neigh

it was his own dog killed by his owr
trap Our dog had escaped
