Administrator haa received a large
number of inquiries along tbat line
ana as a result Mr. Hoover decided to

things. Ice cream and cake were
served.

Remembered On Her Ninetieth
Birthday.
On Tuesday, Grandma Davy reached the 90th milestone of life. Tbe
Ladies Aid of tbe M. E. churcb concluded some efficient belp was needed to do some quilting, so Mrs. Davy
was invited to tbe church parlors to
assist. Very likely she had in mind
that tnis day marked a milestone in
ber life, though perhaps ebe was not
aware t*6at many others knew this.
They seemed to know it alright, and
near abalf hundred were present to
express their appreciation of the fact
tbat some can live to a ripe old age
and De young a!) tbe time.
We bave not learned all the particulars but have no doubt tbat a most
enjoyable sociai time was enjoyed by
ali tbese young people. Grandma
Jennings and Grandma Sanford are
reaching well along toward tbe 90th
milestone and probably moat of those
present were not "born yesterday".
They cheered Mrs. Davy's heart with
a shower of birthday car-is and all
did ample justice to tbe fine supper
with whicb they treated   themselves.
COMMENDABLE IDEA
W. C. Fuller Gives  Prizes
Best Lawns.
For
W. C. Fuller, our patriotic townsman, deserves a* share of credit for
tbe well kept up appearance of tbe {
lawns and flower gardens of our
town as be some time ago sent out
cards to tbe ladies of Farwell offering a prize of five dollars in gold
with a second prize of a sack of flour
for the nicest lawn and flowers, the
prizes to be awarded on Labor Day.
We didn't learo the names of the
judges but understand tbey were eil
from out of town. The choice must
bave been close for certainly a number of the***lawD3 are beautiful and
sbow that many hours of labor have
been expended on tbem. Tbe first
prize was awarded Mrs. Chappell and
ith-** second to Mrs. D. R. Wait, many
i others deserving mention. Contests
wbicb tend to tbe betterment of our
town are of value and tbe public
spirited men wbo make them possible
deserve tbe thanks of the community.

well. We have had so little really
hot weather tbe past summer and tbe
nights for some time have been so
coid tbat crops have matured very
slowly. While occasionally there
may be a field of c o r n or beans
ready to harvest, in genera), we
judge two weeks of warm weather
are needed to ripen corn, beans and
late potatoes.
In tbis locality, as in tbe state, tbe
results seem to vary greatly in
different sections. We bave inquired
of people representing a wide scope
of country and the story seems to be
the same. In one locality beans are
seriously injured, iu another very
little. Tbe -injury seems to bave
been worse on the sand tban on clay
land. Contrary to what one would
naturally expect, crops oa elevated
land, are frequently mucb more
seriously injured than on lower
lands.
We will ail hope that the injury is
iess tban many suppose and that we
may now have sufficient warm
weather to mature all tbe crops.
