According to the report of a High

instinct far above the average, in
fact, sagacity that would outwit
the softest pussyfoot or most cum

For a number of consecutive days
it was found that one crock of milk
in the family dairy was robbed of
it's cream, the fact that every crock
was kept covered only deepening the
mystery. The housewife, who was
also dairy maid, noted the fact that
one of the board milk covers had
a small knot hole in it and the par

CAME TO S. c. 81 YEARS AGO
L. -.

Tom Davis tells US That SlXty-One
years ago on Wednesday,, Novem-
Der 8, he arrived in Sank Centre,
having as a young man travelled
through from Indiana with his par
ents in a covered wagon. He re-
calls that it was a very stormy day
when he arrived in Sank Centre,
settlers were few, food was scarce
and the outlook was not at all
bright. The family had stopped
for the night the evening before at
what was known as the Richmond
farm near Melrose. Those were the
days before the railroads and set
tiers were very much scattered.
Later Mr.. Davis father took a
homestead in the town of Getty,
near Sank Centre. Forty nine
years ago Mr.. Davis came to Long
Prairie and went to work for I.
Reichert, the hotel man, and has
lived here ever since.-Long Prai-
rie Leader. - ..--
