Several carloads of feeders have
been sold in this part of the county
lately to cattle feeders near Wausa,
Nebraska. Heavy feeders selling at
8c per pound.
Cutting of cane for feed is general
and crop normal. It has proven to be
valuable winter feed for stock. Cattle,
horses and hogs relish it as a change
with other feeds.
The Sunday rain was beneficial to
new sowing of alfalfa and fall rye
that is sowed and will be sowed later
on. Third cutting of alfalfa is in
stack. Crop normal.
Your correspondent received a bas
ket of tame grapes of fine quality
recently from the Kohler farm. This
convincing evidence that tame grapes

ing . With Beha, Mellor, Stannard,
Archie and Sidney Faulhaber, Hatch,
Bazelman, Harmon and Ullom of last
year’s squad lost through graduation

will find it mighty difficult to fill their
places.

been to get boys out for practice.
Only about a dozen men coming out
for the practice during the past week.
