WILLOW VALLEY ITEMS.

From the Richland Democrat)
The writer noticed corn rows on
one farm and as for being crooked,
there is no way to describe them. A
grape vine, scythe snath or dogs
hind leg is no comparison. Yet that
farmer is consoled with that old saw,
More corn will grow in a crooked
row than in a straight one
One of the young gallants of this
region who uses an adjustable steer
ing wheel on his auto, went ten miles
to see his best girl. When he started
for home in the wee hours he found
his steering wheel gone. He solved
the problem by staying the rest of the
night with his charmer. The next
morning his girl took him home in
papa's car and now some one has
started the story that. he hired one of
his friends to take that wheel, know
ing that the result would be just as it
proved to be.

BLOOMINGTON.

Saturday when Frank Edwards and
Chris. Garner were hauling a tank of
oil up the mill hill the doubIetrees
broke and the tank ran backward,
luckily striking squareIy against the
bank of the side of the side road.
There were many chances for serious
complications, but no damage was
done.
Sunday afternoon in broad daylight
bold highwaymen entered C. L. Fox's
meat market through the rear win
dow and stole about SIS or $40 from
a box on shelf. The thief first cut
through the back screen door and
unlocked it, but finding the main
door locked went to the window. He
cut the window screen and gained
entrance by raising the window. He
was familiar with the store arrange
ments, because he went directly to
the box containing the money. He
failed to open the cash register which
contained some money. When Clyde
went to dinner he forgot to take
purse containing considerable sum
in bills, which was in the box that
was robbed; but he returned to the
store and took it home. The robbery
happened perhaps within a half hour
of his closing of the store, so the
purse had narrow escape The rob-
berry was an exceptionally bold piece
of work.

Chicago Saturday, having nearly re-
covered from his recent operation.
The surgeons removed about one
third of Henry's stomach in order to
eliminate a malignant growth. For
some time he will have to eat about
six times day, because of the linn
tied capacity of the stomach. In
such a case, however, the stomach
gradually enlarges until it assumes
it's original size. Stomach operations
of this character are becoming quite
common to the prominent surgeons
of the country and they are quite
successful.

The people OF Shullsburg who OBJ
ject to having their gardens trampled
down by ball playing kids, do not
stop to think that if the ball was not
fielded properly the other side would
shove in a home run.

too much noise may never be quite
satisfied until they make their per-
manent home in a cemetery.

Having a small quantity of illicit
liquid refreshment i'll their possession
proved an expensive proposition to a
couple of young men Saturday last.
They were off for a vacation trip and
planned that a little proof against
snake bite would be good thing to
have along. They had a tip that a
quantity OF what they were DESTROYS
of securing would be on sale at a
point over Bear Valley way and so
drove over there. They found both
the spot and the goods and had but
safely deposited the bottle in their
car when the sheriff appeared on the
scene and advised them that they
were under arrest. The charge was
transporting liquor and fines of $500
and costs were levied Saturday morn
