Hat Shucked Com Forty-on Seasons Alfred B. Kinton is not an old man he will be fifty years old Saturday of this week and yet he has shucked corn for forty one .consecutive falls, commenc ing the fall before he was- ten years old. When a young man he was one of the fastest of the corn smickers, but admits that ' he isn't in it with the fast shuck ers of the present day. One year he shucked corn all winter, finishing on the, last day of .Feb ruary. That was the year of the , grasshopper plague, in 1875, we . believe, when there was so much soft corn raised. The 'winter was a remarkably mild one. Mr! Kinton was then "working out," and got $18 a month. ' As he fin ished shucking corn for ore man he would go to another and was thus kept busy all winter. By industry, economy and good management Mr. Kinton has ac cumulated a goodly portion of , this world's goods. He owns a good farm of 220 acres acres, one and a half miles south of Nema- ha, with one of the best and moat comfortable housea in this part of the county, large barn and other improvements, and is pre pared' to take life easy. : He doesn't pretend to make a full hand at corn shucking now in fact, he only shucked eight bush els this fall, helping his son Clyde finish up a small piece. Made $900 From 8 Acres. Cyrus Milan has the record in this vicinity for raising vegetab les. During the past summer, with one horse and a delivery wagon he planted, cultivated, and marketed the product of eight acres of land, which brought him in $900. This means that he reaped from these eight acres of land $112.50 per acre in one summer. -Herald. Dan Maxwell, W. S. Arga bright and T. L.
