SOME FINE CORN IN ILLINOIS.

Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Davisson and daughter of Union tp., and Mrs. Josiah Davisson and two children of Kniman returned Sunday from a few days visit with the Mrs. Davisson’s brother, Philip Goff, of Cissna Park, 111. They made the trip in Harvey's auto, going from here to Remington, thence to Fowler, Freeland Park and Milford. They found muddy roads all the way to Milford; but from there on the roads were dry. They visited the fair awhile Friday at Milford, and Harvey says he saw some very fine stock there, great big horses weighing 2,000 to 2,200 pounds. The corn all through that, section of Illinois is mighty fine, a regular wilderness of stalks and ears, every field the same, and it is all ripe. Oats yielded from 40 to 80 bushels per acre. The farmers through there have mutual telephone lines, and think they are the stuff. woolens in one and one quarter yard lengths for tailor-made suits and overcoats this week. Be sure %nd*get your measure taken.

If you haven’t tried a sack of Acme Flour we want you to try it; we take It back if you don’t like it. Sold nearly a carload in four weeks and not a sack returned. ROWLES A PARKER.
