Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 29, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 October 1906 — Page 3 Advertisements Column 3 [ADVERTISEMENT]

4-Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Yeoman and daughter of Hibbard, Ind., visited lhe Tatter’s father, W. L. Bringle of Nertton tp., this week. They had just returned from a few days' trip to Niagara Falls and New York City, where they had gone on Mr. Yeoman’s vacation trip. Mrs. J. E. Alter of Union tp., who has been visiting her son J. Cecil Alter, at Salt Lake City, Utah, for a few months, returned home Saturday. Cecil is still in charge of the weather bureau at Salt Lake City. Mrs. Alter also visited in Hutchinson, Kans., while away. The Newton County Sentinel is offering a year’s subscription for the largest eight ears of corn brought in to that office prior to December 1, and invites every farmer within the sound of his voice to participate in the contest. The Sentinel editor is long-headed, and if the farmers take to the scheme “right smart” he will have corn to burn. “Texas Sweethearts” tells a story of Life, Love, Hatred, Jealousy and Self-sacrifice on a Texas ranch. One of the leading actors is pretty “Texas Raymond.” for whose heart several are striving, thus giving the title of its play double meaning. It is full of pathos, comedy and excitement, and teaches a splendid moral lesson. It is not a cheaps, blood and thnnder affair. At opera house, Monday, Oct. 22. \CJomplaint is being made* by some of the farmers about there being so few hitch racks in condition to hitch their teams to when they come to town. Many of the old racks, they say, are in such a dilapidated condition that they are useless. This should be remedied, for it it is not every farmer who stops in town a few minutes once or twice a week that cares to go to the trouble of putting his team up in a hitch barn. The Democrat got notice from its paper house this week that all print paper had been advanced 10 per cent and to “watch out for another sharp advance soon.” And the republicans are telling us how Roosevelt has reduced the price of print paper almost onehalf by busting the paper trust! It is a noticeable fact that whenever the republicans bust a trust it doesn’t hurt the trust any and the consumer never notices any reduction in the price of the trust product. Lake County Star: John Brown & Son have an outfit at their Kankakee ranch for making cement building blocks, and intend having enough material on hand to build three houses on their estate next season. It is their intention now to divide the big tract into moderate sized farms, and as fast as possible put up buildings. With the big dike and the ditches being dug water is no longer to be feared in that locality, and occasionally it seems possible they will have to irrigate, but that will be easy. A hole punched through the dike will do the work. The most complete stock of clothing and shoes in western Ind. Right goods at right prices. Chicago Bargain Store.
