LIMESTONE Is
PLENTIFUL IN
MARSTON; WHY3

According to residents OF the
community around Marston, an all
most inexhaustible supply Of lime
stone is available in that district.
p. S. Richey, Mercer county farm:
advisor. has preached the subject
of utilizing this deposit for m
creased crop production and tor
the building of hard roads.
The deposit of lime stone il on
the George Morris farm near Mar
ston and has been absolutely UNI
worked except for the removal Of
coal underneath the limestone de-
post. This limestone could be
used both as a fertilixer and as I
basis for hard roads. A discus
sion of the acceptability Of this de-
post will be held next Monday
afternoon at o'clock in the Mar
ston church. Residents of the COM
munity who are interested viii
have a good chance to discuss the
subject during this meeting.
1t is said that over a period Of "a
years time hard roads would cost
but little II any more than OILED
roads. Already the project Of oil.
ing Mercer county roads has beer
started. No doubt residents Of the
county would prefer to make the
roads permanent, than to have the
task of oiling every year. The
Marston meeting will be good
time for residents of the county to
take up the question.

ALEDO PICKED
FOR REUNION OF
BATTERY B MEN

Members of Battery B, Aledo's
own, are looking forward to re-
union to be held in this city next
month, through the efforts of Har-
old M. Samson, a veteran of the
battery who was seriously injured
during an engagement in the early
part of the war.
Samson, who now lives in Ster-
ling, ILL.,. has been a member OF
Battery B for several years. He
spent the last year of his army life
in hospitals throughout the country.
Several of the commissioned officers
of the battery have signified their
intention of attending the reunion,
the date of which has not been def
initely set, but in all probability will
be held next month.
Captain James Bereth, living in
Monmouth, commander Of the bat
terry, has stated that he will make
every effort to be in Aledo for the
reunion. Lieutenant Torson of Chi
cago, and Lieutenant Ruhl of In
diana have also sent word that they
would be here.
Aledo members of the outfit are
very enthusiastic about the re-
union and every effort will be made
to make it a grand and glorious
affair. Residents of the. city feel
the honor which has been given to
Aledo by the choosing of this city
as the meeting place of the vet
Grams, and will no doubt extend
every possible aid in helping the
former soldiers to enjoy the event.
Samson, who has just received
his discharge from the service, was
instrumental in starting the action
for this reunion. Following his
discharge from the hospital he ex-
pressed a wish that he might meet
once more with his former COM
rades in arms. He was a member
of the gun crew Of Battery B, and
was seriously injured by she'll
fragments duriDg an engagement
in Hell Valley" of the Argonne
sector According to his comrades
Samson was the target of the enemy
at various intervals throughout the
engagement by exposing himself in
attempt to get his share OF the Ger
mans. The engagement In which
he was wounded was in October,
| 1918, and since that time he has
been constantly in hospitals OF the
| United States army.

public tests Of milk taken from all

in butterfat content than is requir-
ed by city ordinance The legal
minimum is 8 per cent
Milk offered for sale by c. E.
