Hotel Proprietors Licensed to Sell Liquor Cannot Be Odd Fellows.

The Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows, by a votd of 189 to 15, decided that hotel proprietors licensed to sell' liquors shall be barred from membership in the Odd Fellows lodge. Most secret orders bar the ordinary saloonkeeper and bartender, but have swallowed the hotelkeeper who took out license »nd then ran the saloon by proxy. The Odd- Fellows have pluckily determined that no man who profits by thus contributing to the disgrace of humanity is good enough for Odd Fellow membership. The step will commend the order to all thinking people.

John R. Lewis, of Barkley township, has purchased from the Crouch stock importers, of Lafayette, two 2-year-old Belgian mares that are about the finest ever brought to the county. Joi-n believes in good stock and will, do his full share to make a good name for Jasper county. He will have the mares on exhibition at the next stock show and make other owners get up and dust if they beat him out of first place. It is gratifying to know that farmers are thus improving stock and the annual horse shows have much to do with this development It is really surprising, however, that more farmers do not buy the best full blood stock when it is so profitable because of the big value of the offspring. Colts from the Lewis mares will be worth twice or more than those from the ordinary grade draft mares and.it will cost no more to raise them.
