We have unloaded 5 car loads, over 1,000 barrels of flour since Jan. Ist, 1910. More flour than all the other merchants of Rensselaer have handled. We are not giving ourselves credit for salesmanship, but give the credit to the high quality of the flour. Remember every sack guaranteed to be the best flour made or money refunded. Aristos, Gem of the Valley, of Lord’s Bept, only $1.50 a sack. JOHN EGER. Roe Yeoman, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Yeoman, Is working for a Chilago company, and is now engaged ;n Installing a filtering plant at Rock Island, 111. His brother Ray was here Saturday and Sunday. He is taking the Royal Arch degree of his old home town. He is now at the head of the new department of civil engineering of Valparaiso University. Some minor work has been taught there before, but last fall Ray was engaged to institute the more advanced work and to establish a complete three year course. The work has progressed very satisfactorily ( and the university in all respects is progressing very nicely.

The fellow that said during March that he was “skeered” of what April would bring forth can now make use of the term “I told you so.” Saturday and Sunday’s cold and drizzling rain turned off this morning into a wet snow that melted almost as fast as it fell, but chilled the air and made everything disagreeable. It is so bad ihat most of us yill probably forget how fine a month March whs before long. The storm is general throughout the middle west It is reported that in North Dakota a snow and sleet storm started Friday and developed into a regular blizzard with the temperature far below the freezing point. Snow fell for 24 hours over southwestern lowa, and Missouri and Illinois are in the grasp of the storm. Fortunately Indiana can not be blamed for it, and apparently we are not *v&sering as much as our neighbors.
