BAND CONCERT Geneva Boys Did Good Work Rendered Excellent Music at Band Stand Last Night and Were Cheered to the Echo. The Geneva Band last evening rendered a fine band concert from ; the Band Stand and from the number of people who attended it the same was certainly appreicated and many remarks were heard last evening from business men. who stated , that it seemed like old times onoe again when our own band was ren dering their concert work. This band is a very enterprising one and complete in every respect and for a bind of such young organization certainly reflects great credit upon its leader, Harry Harb, who in fact is a musician clear through and

This Week’s Specials

John Everetts, secretary of the school board, has been busy for. several days. taking the enumeration of school children that reside within the confines of thecity. J. P. Gass an old Decatur gentle man, who priW twenty years ago was a faunffar figure about the | city, is in town today. He now resides in Wauseon, Ohio, and is traveling for the Burke Bollmeyer Mfg- Co. Found— Lady's purse coulaining SI .21, which the owner can have by calling at this office. THE EDITOR Os an agricultural paper will tell the farmer he should breed only to draft stallions. His advice may be good, but there is a bare possibility that he may be mistaken. The reader will understand that I have trotting bred stallions and am, of course tooting my own horn. Suppose a farmer breeds a good draft mare to a good draft stallion, he will for the produce, if large and sound at four years of age receive about S2OO. On the other hand, suppose he breeds a well-bred trotting mare to a well-bred trotting stallion that is sound and individually good, the produce, everything being equal, will at leas* sell for as much as the draft horse, and if a handsome road horse, s.>oo to $1000; and if a high-class trotter from SSOOO to $25,000. It costs no more to break one than the other. It is a mistaken idea that a farmer, if he breeds to trotting stallions, must have a track on his farm and keep a trainer or do the training dimself. If he has a handsome road horse there will be a dozen buyers for him as soon as he has him broken. If a trotter comes his way he will tell him a hundred times before he is even broken that he is a trotter, and it will net cost him a cent to find it out. Great trotters are born trotters. In Grandor 35996, and Major Online by Online 2:04 I have, it is safe to say, two high-class trotting ttallions as are in the state. They are royally bred, good size, very speedy, and will make great sires. Stallion card-*, giving breeding, description and service fee can be had for the asking. A. N. Acker, I Pleasant Mills, Ind.
