NEWS from the COUNTY

FOUR CORNERS The I.' 0. O. F. lodge of Wheatfield put on some work Tuesday night Gilbert Seegrist has his rye threshed. The yield was 11 bushels per acre and it was of a fair grade. E. A. Fisher of Wheatfield is visiting at Bradford, 0., Ridgeville. Wabash and Marion, Ind., this week. Farmers are cutting oats this week. The crop looks gooa, which will make up in part for the poor wheat crop. Dr. Downie of North Judson was called professionally to treat some sick horses for L. C. Asher a few days ago. Fairchild of Tefft has two cars of threshing coal on the track at $7 per ton. Better hurry up before It is all sold. Mrs. Minerva Swisher of Wheatfield visited over Sunday with Peter Zimmer and family, formerly of this place but now of Chicago. Sometimes it costs to talk even if you don’t hire a lawyer. One should remember when they open their dining room door that something might drop out. The roadway along your farm should be mowed and all weeds and brush cut. You can get credit for this work on your taxes. Then why not get busy? We wonder if replacing beer with gasoline and automobiles will not prove a greater curse to the coming generation and retard rather than elevate mankind? With the dissatisfaction in these parts it looks mighty good for the Democrat commissioner candidate for the first district this fall, and we

want to see Mr. Fitzgerald get busy. An electric light meeting was held at North Judson Wednesday to decide whether the Wheatfield plant can raise its rates or not. Gulbranson asks for about a 75 per cent raise. The manager of the Wheatfield Regulars, Charles Jensen, batted a home-run, but it did not count in Sunday’s game—it’s a boy. And now Charles is just an old man, but thinks he will live through it. The Wheatfield band gave a conconcert last Saturday night. You could hear the noise all over town. They were obliged to wait until the country boys came from the harvest fields before they could erect the bandstand or toot a horn. Some push, I should say so. Put crepe on your bats for this year, tie up the ball and your new ice cream suit in moth balls. Start out next year with an ad In The Democrat; take your ad out of the 2x4 whose editor does not even patronize the game, and put your money where you get results —you’ll win. It never dawned on the wiseacres of the Wheatfield ball team until lately why they can’t win. The Kankakee township boys are not with them and they can’t nor never did win without them. Come to think of it, Wheatfield can’t win on any line without the country boys to put the pep in the deal. Well, Lowell was here Sunday and carried home the bacon —score 14 to 6. As usually they tied up the game in the two first Innings. A rotten decision by the “ump” and the boys lost their head, then lost the ball and the game went to —. Lowell Jensen got hot and left the pitcher’s box and James Anderson pitched the last two innings, the only place they found for him that he filled with success. James, too, is one of-the Regular’s has-beens. Mrs. Jumper of Chicago, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. Nate Keene, and other relatives near Wheatfield, suffered a paralytic stroke Sunday, July 11, while visiting at the home of L. C. Asher of Kankakee township. She never regained consciousness and died Monday at 4 p. m., and was burled Wednesday in the Wheatfield cemetery. The Rev. Amstutz of Wheatfield, assisted by Undertaker Keen, conducted the funeral and burial services. Relatives from Kouts, Lacross, Kokomo- and Chicago were in .afi <1 COMalinda "Elsea” Jumper was born near Dayton, Ind., Feb. 25, 1841, and died at the home of her niece, Mrs. L. C. Asher, July 19, 1920, aged 79 years, 5 months and 23 days.
