Some Fine Specimens of Mibchigan Farm Products.

Mrs. John Behrens returned this Saturday morning from Cadillac, Mich., within 2Vi> milps of which city Mr. Behrens owns a farm of 125 acres, which he purchased last spring. Along with the farm 'he got four head of horses, fourteen cows and five calves and considerable farm equipment. Mr. Behrens has been at the farm for the past month and Mrs. Behrens was there about two weeks. She brought home with her, so that they could be exhibited at The Republican office, several big potatoes and a number of onions grown on Mr. Behrens’ farm. These are now on exhibition in The Rpublican window.

This is Mr. Behrens’ third experience with Michigan land. One farm he purchased and alter he had made a payment to bind the bargain the owner decided he wanted to keep it and he paid Mr. Behrens liberally to let him have the farm back again. Then he bought another farm and it, only to sell *t a year later at a substantial advance. He returned to Jasper county and bought a farm in Barkley township for $37.50 per acre and after three years sold it for SBO. It is hoped that he does as well with his latest Michigan investment. He will hold a public sale during the early winter and then move to the farm in Michigan, where he will probably spent most of this Call.
