of Audubon county's next represen-

farmer" The doctor further states
that wheat will make better than SO
bushels to the acre and testing
better than 631 pounds to the
bushel, and that all of the Audubon

round" We are glad to know
that the Audubon colony is making
good at Yuma, and as for Mr.. Samp-
on. we'll give him the biggest crop
of votes in November any candidate
ever had at a general election.
