There is a general feeling that undue haste was made by the old board of county commissioners in letting the contract for furniture for the new court house. This contract calls for $13,000, and there is a strong belief that had more time been taken the county would have been the gainer by several thousand dollars. It is even intimated that the same contract could now be placed at 40 per cent less. E. E.

That is why DeWitt’s Little Early Risers are known as the famous little pills. A. F. Long.

The decline in land values and the continued fall in prices of farm products are having very inconvenient, and to some of our worthy citizens, very ruinous effects. Many of our moderate farmers and ordinary business men are finding themselves greatly embarrassed financially—not a few already, much against their will, have been forced to make assignment or execute heavy mortgages. The great land boom of two years ago that struck this county is now yielding some very bitter fruits. Deferred payments, with interest, on these lately purchased lands are now falling due, and the purchasers are finding themselves unable to fulfill theis promises. Many are being forced to forfeit the amounts paid; in one ease we are informed four thousand dollars have been forfeited and the farm is reverting to the former owner. These misfortunes have a double effect, for, while it is a clear loss to the late buyer, it is incovenient and often ruinous to the fox me:' owner, for he in turn has become a pur chaser of other property, relying upon payments for it from the payments due him, thus in the default of one, many involved.
