FRUIT GROWERS GOOD
SPORTS

Surely there never was a bet
ter bunch of sports any where,
than right here. After the
big blow, any number of fruit
growers were in our store and
while most of them had their
crops on the ground there was
very little complaining. One
fellow laughed as though it
was a good joke about his
5000 boxes of ground apples
as he called them. While all
felt their losses keenly, they
kidded each other and joked
about it as though it was a
mere trifle.
1t is easy to say you just as
well laugh as cry, but put
yourself in the apple growers
place, look at a years work
all on the ground then laugh
if you can.

An ancient, and the only,
Chinaman in a certain town is
the possessor Of several doz-
en- chickens, and had long been
in the habit of supplying the
lone grocery store in the vii
lage with its weekly quota OF
eggs. One day, during the
moulting season he sauntered
in without the customary
bucketful.
"Well," demanded the mer-
chant, "no eggs for me today.
"Nopee," replied the off,
cial egg-purveyor. "Me teiia
why no gotum. Chicken ne
changum pants. He no layum
now"

Editor N. P. Replying
to your inquiry as to what
will become of the horsefly

would respectfully suggest
that the place of these insects
will probably be taken by
Ford bugs.
