Jasper County Democrat, Volume 3, Number 40, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 January 1901 — WHEATFIEID. [ARTICLE]

WHEATFIEID.

Philip Blue of Rensselaer, was on our streets Wednesday. The man who raises poultry is not the only man who has it to sell. A. C. Beaman, principal of schools at this place, is on the sick list this week. The I. O. O. F., and Daughters of Rebekah held a public installation Tuesday evening. Jim Hazelett, who has been working in South Dakota, is spending a few days here at present. George Hoehn of Kankakee, was looking after his interests at this place the first of the week. It is easy enough for any one to sing, “There is Only One Girl,’ but it is hard for some fellows to determine which one that is. Ed Erwin, who has been on the sick list for a long time, is going to get well under the skillful treatment of Dr. Berkley of Rensselaer. We suppose a few of those rotten plank in the republican platform are being repaired, at least George Sttmble missed a few from the lumber yard lately. This seems to be 3 time of year when a good many have to cough up even to the most successful rent-beaters along with some few children who have the whooping cough. Mr. D. V., attended church here last Sunday evening and what everinduced him to stroll so far away from home is more than we can tell, unless it was beThg accompanied by the young lady who seemed to be absorbing as much of the falling weather as himself.
