Van Buren merchants are putting up hitch racks in front of their places of business. The feed yard was not popular with the farmers, the emerchants were at expense for its rental, and some farmer trade was lost to other towns. The experience of the Van Buren merchants has taught them that it must be a good sized town that can withstand the loss of hitch racks, without a loss of the farmer trade.

The convention also insured the striking machinists on the Erie financial aid by voting SIO,OOO per month to the district officials to help win the fight. —Huntington Herald. Though by no means so prolific as Indiana, Ohio occasionally produces an author whose work is worth while. One of these is Edith Rickert, whose recently published book, “The Golden Hawk,” is meeting with great success. This is a story of old-time Provence, and is in marked contrast to the author s earlier tale, “The Reaper,” the scenes of which were laid on the bleak shores of the Shetland islands. “Osla Whale Hunting,” a short story by Miss Rickert in the October Lippincolt’s, demonstrates that she can write this type of fiction quite as well as she writes novels.

Milk now is selling at from 6 to 7 cents a quart retail, and dealers assert that it will be necessary to increase the cost to consumers to 10 to 11 cents a quart.
