Missouri and Arkansas Farmer and
Fruitman: "Reuben Foote, proprietor of the Silver Hill hotel, is the longest and leanest looking man in town,
but this is accounted for by his being
one of the most active and energetic
fellows.in the town. He sets a splendid table, has good beds and does all
in his power to make his guests comfortable and happy. He is a native of
Australia and has. been for a number
of "years engaged at different places in
railroad timber contract work. He is
also engaged in the feed business, and
you'll flnd-him O.K. generally." Mr.
Foot was formerly a resident of Clare:

new location, 6just north of Hotel

pleased to receive a visit from you.
The maple sugar season has opened
in southwestern Michigan, where most
of the crop of the state is produced,
with prospects that, the amount •'.of
sugar made will be larger than in any
year since'the bountv of two cents per
pound was removed.- The prices re-
ceiyed for both maple sugar and syrup
have hot been lessened for many years,
and the farmer who is so fortunate as
to possess a tract • of maple. timber
often finds that several weeks labor
in the bush brings in largp^ net returns
than he receives from the sale of his
cereal crops.—Ex.

The making of the subscription price
ofthe Sentinel to one dollar a year
was the best move we ever made. New
subscribers are coming in and old ones
are paying up by the score. The ■ Sentinel's aim is to do whatever possible
to build up this city, this community-
and this county. If you are interested
in the advancement, do what you can
to help. By helping u-s you help yourself. If your neighbor is not taking
this paper, show him a sample copy,
tell him ofthe low subscription price
and get hitn to subscribe. You can
not invest a dollar in anything that
will bring in as great* returns.    •' "   '
