flay making is over for this season. Harvesting is the principle this week. J. W. Hyatt made a business trip to Rensselaer Saturday. Frank Roy and Warren Sage have purchased new binders. Miss Alice Spaulding is visiting friends in Chicago for a few weeks. Rev. Augspurger delivered a very able discourse at Union Sunday evening. Quite a number of the people of this vicinity attended the populist convention in Rensselaer on Thursday. July 16th. Mr. Irvin Hyatt and Miss Louisa Mathews, who have been visiting friends in this vicinity for the past few weeks, returned home Thursday. Why not advertise? The local papers were first consulted; no advertisement was formed; the streets never walked in search of what was wanted, finally the artesan needed was located and asked why he did not advertise his business? He said he did, once a year, about New Years only, it did not pay to keep an

advertisement standing. The buisness in which he is engaged is not dependent time or season, so the supposition is, that while his advertisement is alive, he is crowded with work, and as soon as his advertisement dies out, his work dies also, and he imag’ ins it is all due to the season; try an advertisement out of season and see how it will work.
