RETURN FROM ILLINOIS VISIT

• Mr, and Mrs. Sol Norman of Union township returned Saturday from a week’s visit with their daughter, Mrs. Fern Steiner, near Jerseyville, 111. They have had lo J of rain down In south of Springfield and in many places the weeds were higher than the corn and quite a number of farmers were disking up the fields and replanting. They grow considerable wheat down In that section but not very many oats. Both, however, look fine, and Mr. Norman thought the prairie cSuntry about Jerseyville was as fine a section of Illinois as he hdd ever seen. But he saw no better crop prospects any place than we have right here in Jasper. '
