Wheatfield Review: [By Bert Vandercar.] George Hellman, who sold his 800 acre farm northwest of Wheatfield a few months ago, has purchased a 400 acre improved farm in the central part of Wisconsin and has an option on 1,600 acres more. The farm that he purchased has fine soil and is well located, being surrounded by large ditches and is, therefore, well drained. He intends to move there in February and try his hand at farming in that state. We wish him grand success. A sister from Illinois is the gueSt of Mrs. Robert Gunn at this writing. Almost every night you can hear our local coon hunters telling to interested spectators the many features of their dogs. They say, put on my dog Steel claws andhe_will tfimb a tree as quick as a squirrel. We received a letter from Mr. and Mrs. O. W. Vandercar, who are sojourning" at Miami, Fla., from which we will give a few extracts that will be of general interest. Mrs. Vandercar was formerly Miss Ethel Hurst, of North Judson. The extracts from the letter follow: “We are living at Miami, Fla., and that means that we are all happy and well, as this city is known as the magic city. Variety, so they say, is the spiee of life, so we will show you that we are in the midst of a great variety of people. On the north of us lives a Turk, a Ver>ptiont farmer and an English duke. On the south a clam digger an Italian countess and an Aztec priest; to the rear a Montana cowboy, a Cincinnati brewer and a preacher, while ac ress the street a Chicago grain broker a sea captain and a shoemaker reside. We autoed out into the Everglades Sunday. They are building a road across to the Gulf of Mexico, but only have about thirty miles completed. There are real Indians in these parte of the Everglades, not the kind that Cooper wrote-about or the laughing water kind, but the kind that go to Yale and study Greek and play football. We have mulberry trees in our yard which bear continually. Tomatoes here grow for years and bear fruit every year.” Mrs. Lottie Smith is visiting with friends at LaCrosse at this writing. Mr. and Mrs. Chester Huff and Mrs. William Brown autoed to Crown Point last Sunday afternoon. Dr. and Mrs. Fyfe and family, who are now located at Valparaiso, visited friends here last Sunday. During their stay here they made a host of friends, all of whom wish them success and happiness in their new home. ' ’ ' . r'-iIL ."C

According to the article m. last week’s Review, written by Eidtor HUHnhnn of the Rensselaer Repttblican, the party that travelled through the north end of Jasper county and feasted upon the fat of this land a few days ago have revised their mental pictures of this part of the Kankakee valley and have decided that the song of . Trustees Bowie, Duggleby and Fairchild about the grandeur and prospects of this realm' was pitched too' low. They saw crops growing where a few years ago the bull frog made love to his dusky belle amid cattails and bull-grass and where the dog fish played hide and seek with the mud turtles; where the duck and geese used to swim in happy contentment the are. is now liuiify ’hoping the farmers make up-to-date farms. To show you that anyone can be a weather prophet, we will give out the following guess on the weather: On or before four months there will be snow storms in the northern part of. the United States and the major part .of Canada, with prevailing winds from the north and north-

A few winds from the south, however, will be in evidence to help stabilize the weather. In April or May, we can expect a few warm days, while flowers will bedeck the fields in June. If we don’t hit it, you can tell us. George Jones, of Tefft, was in Wheatfield last Saturday evening. George was one of the very few boys of the county who received training as a marine during the world war. He was in France, but arrived there too late to take much of an active part. While in the training camp he made quite a reputation as a boxer, having gained a few first prizes.

Quite a few of our farmers are husking corn. They all«say that .the quality is better than last year. It is reported that the Hessian Fly is working on some of the early sown fields of wheat. Robert A. Mannan, superintendent of construction of the C. M. Dewey et. al. tile drain, received bids on the work at the Wheatfield bank . last Saturday. The work was let to A. S. Keene, our local stone road contractor. This will be the largest tile drain built in- these parts for years.
