George Zoborosky was in one day last week and reports that he had 'sold this season four , thousamd pounds of honey, two tons. If sold at 1214 c per pound Mr. Zoborosky is SSOO to the good. 1214 cis a very conservative price for honey and in all probabilities' he realized more than five hundred dollars as a total. Which goes to show that a farmer may some times profitably handle something besides corn and oats. Word came last week that Walter Blankenbaker of Leesburg had sold out again. Walter sold his j farm east of 'Mt. Ayr last fall to Will Walters and in the spring located near Leesburg. Friends who visited there this summer said Mr. Blankenbaker certainly had a nice home. But Walter got a chance to clean up a neat sum and could not withstand the temptation. His farm contained 150 acres and it is understood his gain was S3O per acre.

JACKSON TOWNSHIP A few farmers in this section are husking com. The wheat crop in Jackson township is unusually promising and the same is also true of rye. Quails are plentiful this season, but prairie chickens appear to have decreased in number in the last year. Word has been received here of the death of Frank McAlister, son-in-law of Ransom Elijah. Deceased lived in Texas. In our humble opinion northern Newton county has some of the largest silos to be found in Indiana or adjoining states, Newton county Democrats are offering to wager two to one on the proposition that both “Xdair and Tom Taggart will be elected. All of the Amish voters in Jackson township registered this fall. They want Wilson because Wilson (kept this country out of war. Joseph Miller of Hammond had an automobile wreck near Enos, north of Morocco, the other day, in which Miller sustained a badly broken leg. And, now, along with infantile paralysis and the German submarine, we have the fellow who is eternally wanting to bet a dollar on the result of the election. One of these days some ambitious Republican newspaper will be showing us by the straw vote that Texas is overwhelmingly Republican. with Mississippi in doubt. Newton county’s oldest woman— Mrs. Eliza Griffith—died at her home in Morocco on Wednesday of last week. She had reached the [age of 102 years and 9 months. Mr. Campbertp the sawyer, will (resume sawing within a few days. (The mill will be located in Jasper Makeever’s timber, just a short distance northeast of the ‘‘old stand.” David Deardurff of Colfax township, is having his first experience with a muck fire. Dave tells us that rain is just peaches and honey to a muck fire—sorter feeds on dampness, as you might say. George Ade’s reasons for supporting Hughe? are not very convincing, but George probably did his best j under the circumstances and Demo(crats and Republicans alike should be willing to let it go at that. Democrats should not be too severe on those Peoria Republicans, who recently booted and otherwise maltreated a man for presuming to ask Candidate Hughes a civil question. Due consideration should be aiven to the fact that assault and battery is the only real, telling argument that the Republicans have this year. In an article on wild fowl shooting in the Beaver lake region in the early days, and which is now going the rounds of the newspapers. mention is made of the ‘‘lordly sandhill crane, with legs three to four feet long.” Gee. how foolish the sandhill crane of the present day and generation must feel with legs only about eighteen inches long. What funny things do happen in old Newton: According to the Morocco Courier an Italian living near that city called in a physician recently to see whether he—the Italian—had or had not been shot in the last few days, or nights, rather. Someone, it would appear, started the report that the dago had been shot while stealing oats, and the child of sunny Italy naturally wanted to prove his innocence.
