Jas. Bentine living northwest of
Chappell was in town the first of the
week and stated that, a portion of his

threshing for a short time the first part
of the week and when he was in town
the threshing had not been completed.
He estimated that a part of his grain
would be considerable lighter in yield
though he has nearly a hundred acres
of grain that will turn out at about
the above mentioned yield.—Chappell

of the *N'ational Guard reserves, who
was in Arcadia on that day, and Mrs.
MellGordon had prepared a fine spread
for the general, so the two lean and
hungry editors bad the nonor of din

fact didn't prevent them from doing
full justice to the spread in the least

western editor accompanied Cou.ity
Superintendent Currier to Litchfield
early in the morning. We were sup
posed to be back in a couple of hours,
but didn't get back until night This

Rightenour and had another fine din
ner served by Mrs. Rightenour. The

where to go for fine feeds now. and
when out of town will probably be
found, either at Arcadia or Litch
field
