LETTER FROM MICHIGAN.

J, G. Andrus Writes The Democrat From Oceana County. J. G. Andrus of Shelby,' Mich., in renewing his subscription to The Democrat, writes: Please find enclosed for The Democrat, which seems like a letter every week. The weather has been fine and is still nice. Everybody is busy trimming and spraying t|ie fruit trees and there is a good prospect for fruit Wheat and rye IJfeks fine. There is a good deal of land changing hands at a good price, this spring. Everything is fetching a good price except potatoes, which are only 10 cents per bushel. They are so cheap that they don’t taste very good any more. At this spring election I got to vote a good old democratic ticket once more with good results. The county went dry by a good majority. It is very- strong republican up here, but -they lost like everything in our townsihip They .have been having their way too long so the people turned them down. They also defeated the v court house bonds. They would like to* build a new court house but they will have to wait till another election. Yours truly,

JEROME G ANDRUS.
