They are of the “Maggie Murphy" variety and the largest of the two tips the scales at 2| pounds. Charlie says when any one else brings in two larger ones he will take his tubers down, but he challenges the entire state to beat them. U. M. Baughman, in a card to the Democrat dated Oct. 2, writes from Oklahoma City that he has been getting "acclimated.” In other words has been sick for a week, but was better at the time of writing.

Fowler Leader: Charles Hampton is in great trouble. He had surveyor Whicker at the Jasper county ranch measuring. And Wbick brings back the story that it will be necessary to put a board fence around the field to prevent the potatoes from rolling out in the road when they are dug. The ground on which they grow will not be big enough to hold them. If Mr. Hampton would take Whick to board, that might help some.

While fruit was practically an unknown quantity in Jasper county this season, except berries of which there were a plenty, there are a few apples here and there that are quite good. Isaac Saidla deposited a small basketful of the latter on our table Tuesday that did one’s eyes good to look at They were great big, well developed fellows, a handsome bluish red m color, and Mr. Saidla says are an extra fine flavored apple although he did not know the name, of them. We have laid them away in the cellar and will test their eating qualities some cold evening next winter when they are at their best.

Lowell Tribune (Rep): Although Teddy and Charlie downed the cocktails at lunch Decoration day at the home of Charlie; the cocktail wont down as to Charlie, as witness his recent defeat for some office in the Methodist church on account of this little bit of high life courtesy . Lake County Star: Neighboring Hoosier counties, south and east of Lake, are cutting down the saloon licenses by remonstrating, and some counties have them nearly wiped out, while the number of saloons in Lake county is growing fast. We have now about 600 places paying license, and numerous "blind pigs," and when Gary gets in full blast it will not be surprising if we have a thousand. West Creek and Eagle Creek townships have a majority of temperance people, but the other nine townships in Lake county will never attempt to remonstrate away the saloons, knowing that a majority of the inhabitants are of-4hat stripe. The foreigners predominate in most townships and they say booze. Mr. and Mrs. 8. B. Thornton of Washington state send The Democrat, through A. W. Bringle of Fair Oaks, a cluster of hops from the Mitchell hop and fruit ranch, some 45 miles from Mr. Thornton’s homestead and on which the latter has been employed for the past three or four months. Eighty acres of this ranch is in hops, and they are yielding more than a ton to the acre. They are also expecting to pick from 800 to 1000 boxes of apples from the apple orchard. This is in the irrigated district, and a few miles from this ranch three 4-year-old pear trees yielded $93 worth of pears this season, or s3l to the tree. The cluster of hops awakens old memories, as the Democrat man has worked many a day in the hop fields of central New York in his earlier life. Hops used to be one of the principal crops grown there in those days, but now the Pacific coast country produces them in great quantities and at much less cost, consequently not one acre is now planted in central New York where there used to be a hundred acres.

STOP THE STRENUOUS LIFE.

Weakens the Tissues and Lessens Organic Vitality. The stress and strain of the strenuous life in both city and country tends towards stomach troubles. Five people suffer to-day where one did ten years ago with sick headache, dizziness, flatulence, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nervousness, sleeplessness and the many other symptoms of indigestion. All who are suffering with stomach troubles, and that means at least two out of three in Rensselaer and other towns, should use Mi-o-na stomach tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet effective; nothing else can be so thoroughly relied upon to relieve all troubles from indigestion as Miona. It is not a mere digestive taken after the food is eaten, but a true tonic, stimulant and strengthener for the muscular walls of the stomach, increasing the flow of digestive fluids and putting the stomach into such condition that it does the work Nature expects of it. So reliable is Mi-o-na in its curative action that B. F. Fendig, with every 50-cent box he sells, gives a guarantee to refund the money unless the remedy does all that is claimed for it.

WANTED FOR CASH

Don’t forget the fact, that I pay cash for all kinds of Household Goods, Stoves, Harness and in fact 1 will buy anything that will sell again. If you want a good kitchen stove or base burner come and see me. I can save you money. ’Phone 23. D. M. Worland.

THOSE FAIR OAKS DIPTHERIA CASES.

Editor Democrat:—We would like to have space in your columns to offer a defense in regard to the the criticism that is made in Tuesday’s Rensselaer Republican of some of our citizens. The worst is bad enough without adding anything. Now it started out to desisting of himself, wife and daughter Lulu |and baby and others. This daughter has been dead about two years. The Shultz boy who died, would not take medicine from Dr. Fife we understand, but would from their Medaryville doctor. He would have taken the latter’s medicine but he came too late. It also states that Mrs. Warren died of diptheria. This is a mistake, as she was getting along fairly well with the disease and was out of b&d sitting up when she had an attack of heart failure which took her away. It says Mr. Warren persisisted in going about the streets endangering others. Now we believe Mr, Warren did nothing more in that respect than any other man would have done under the same circumstances. They were quarantined, but there was no provisions made for them to get anything to eat and he had stock that had to have care, and no provision for their care. So he had to do something. They say nothing about one other family that was quarantined in this place that have nothing to look after, that paid no more attention to the quarantine than Mr. Warren’s. Some of them were down town every day during the time, and furthermore one other case in town was not quarantined at all. It says that Dr. Fyfe worked heroically in the cases. Now we feel that if Dr. Fyfe had done his whole duty he would have had the first case quarantined and stamped out the disease in the start. They also say that the excitement is at a high state. Now, from reports, it is not so high here as it is about Rensselaer. We feel that if Mr. Warren’s needed guards the other family needed it too, consequently this expense has been uncalled for. Now we feel that Mr. Warren’s made a mistake in not taking medicine just as much as anybody does, from the simple fact that all others taking medicine got well, but we simply want to give the facts in the case as we know them, Bert’s litttle baby has a very bad attack of inflammation of the stomach owing to having to change its food. It is being treated by Dr. Fyfe. A Citizen.
