It is said there are over -1,000 cieer

come from all parts of the United

Tbe tlrsb annual shoot of tbe Mb.

ingday. A large number of good prizes
arc offered. The members of the Glare

Will be the best ever given at a meebing of the association and bhe attendance isespeefced to reach fully five hundred.
The keeping of bees seems to be one
of the minor industries through which
tbe farmers of Isabella counby make a
neat sum in their spare time. Two
Mt, jfleasant men make a business of
handling the honey raised in the
county, and ship it by tbe carload to
Chicago.
Chicory raising promises to divide
the honors with sugar beeb raising in
Bay City, There is as much money in
chicory as in sugar beets and less care
is required in the cultivation. Seyen
dollars a ton is paid for bhe raw product and from fifteen to twenty tons
-can be raised to the acre,
crilbert Suzor brought into our office
this week a vegetable that Is a novelty,
and Mr. Suzor would like some one to
name it. It resembles a potato in ap-
piMrmce, but was attached by a vine
tou !baga. Mr. Suzor will plant it
next spring and see if he cannot propagate a new species of vegetable.—Mt,
Pleasant Times.
Northern Michigan has long been
noted as _ great potato producing region and its product is considered in
the big cities of the Union as of the
very finest quality, so much so, in fact,
that at the leading hotels in Chicago
jind obher cities, "Northern Michigan
Potatoes" is brought out in bold letters
on the bills of fare. Bub bhis year the
July frost played sad havoc with the
potato crop in many sections of the
state and it was reported thab the crop
in ths northern tier of counties in the
lower peninsula was entirely ruined.
A more incorrect report was never circulated, as in this region at leisb,com-
paratively no damage was done and the
yield is', if anything, above the average. Last week, Chas. llouuds, who
owns a tine farm north of this p'ace,
gathered in his crop of tubers, from
three acres of which he had an even
1,100 bushels. We doubt if this yield
can be beaten in any other part of bhe
sbate this year.—Boyne City Review.
Evarb Review: The bruth of the bible saying, that "bread cast upon tne
waters will return again," has been illustrated here this week. About thirty
years ago a young man was taken sick
at one of the hotels of this village, and
having no friends and littlo money,
was indeed in bad luck, but a Good
Samarjbau appeared, and he 'was
moved to the home of Mark Bcntley,
where he was taken care of and nursed
back to health, and'In due time took
his departure with many thanks and
wibh bhe promise that "you will hear
from me." Bub they did nob, and the
Incident had passed from their mind
until last week, when Mr. Benbley received a letter from tbe man, who
stated the circumstances and enclosed
a check for $25. The young man had
gone from Evart to Port Huron, secured work with a manufacturing institution, and afterwards went west
with a branch house, where he now
holds a responsible position, la prosperity he remembered the good turn
as stated.

FARMERS' INSTITUTE.
One Will be Held, in Clare, Wed-
nesday, December 1, '98.
A meeting that will be of iticalcua-
ble beueflt and interest to the farmers
of Clare and northern Isabella counties
will be held in Doherty opera house,
Clare, Wednesday.- Dec. 7, 1898. A
"county farmers' institute" it.iscalled.
There will be morning, afternoon and
avenincr programs, consisting of topics
of interest to farmers and farmers'
wives, music, and one or more recitations. There will be one or two ladies
on the program, a-nd two or three of
our successful farmers to tell what
they haye done and bow they have
done it.
Kenyoo L, Butterfield, suporinten-
denbofMichigan farmers' institutes,
writes that he will send Wm. Ball of
nanburg, to take part in the program.
Mr. Ball is a practical everyday, intelligent farmer, and does good 7yberever
he goes. He will discuss "Yalue of
Improved Stock and How to Improve
It," also""Business Sense in Farming."
In order to complete arrangements
for the local part of the program it is
desired that all farmers and their
wives meet in the vacant law office
over the Doherby hardware on Saturday, Nov. 25, a,t 2 p. m. Farmers, this
meeting is for you, ib co^ts nothing, so
do not fall to attend the meeting on
Saturday, the 25tn, that proper arrangements may be made. Mr. Doherby has generously donated his opera
house for til* institute.
In writing to Mr. Doherby, Supb.
Butterfield says: "Hope you will have
agood attendance and lots of interest.
I shall be glad to render all assistance
possible to make this first meeting in
your county a great success. There is
no reason why you can't have a good
two-day institute in Clare counby
every year, and if you can demonstrate
by a successful one-day meeting that
institute sentiment is active, we shall
feel like urging the organization of an
institute society and giving you two-
day meetings hereafter."
Ladies, your invited too. Don't forget it.   All be sure bo attend.

Overgrown Claws 6a. a Canary.
Ia the recent articles on hotme_old
pets and the canary especially, as the
first to begin with, this trouble wa3
noticed, and the proper treatment for
it given. The bird's claws, not worn
down as in the natural condition, become lengthened and, curved under the
sole to such an extent as to wholly
interfere with the bird's movements.
The claws, therefore; need frequent attention, and when they become orer-
long they should be shortened by clipping with, a pair of sharp soissors,
taking great care not to cut too high
and thus wound the vascular part in
the center of the tip. The beat way is
to use one of the small, files intended
for a person's use in this same way,
to shorten the finger nails, and with
this to keep the long toes in the right
condition. This avoids the necessity
for cutting.
