The harvest time for hay, oats and rye is about over and all have yielded fairly well. Dr. Hood with his wife and son of Flemingsburg, Ky., are the guests of Hon. D. H. Patton and family. Mr. J. S. Sheffler has improved hjs bam by the application of a coat of red paint. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Potts and their daughter Catharine, of Chicago are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Phelps. A number of soldiers from this place and vicinity expect to attend the great reunion at Detroit next week. Mrs. A. Fell, of Chicago, who was visiting her parents Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bonner, was called home last Friday by sickness in the family of one of their clerks. Mrs. Gumm who has been visiting for several weeks with her children Mr. and Mrs. Walter Gumm, returned to her home in Marsailles, 111. last Friday. A recent letter from Hon. Titus E. Price of Highmore, S. D., gives intelligence of the very dangerous illness of his wife, an illness which it is feared will result fatally. The I. O. O. F. of Fowler will celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the organization of the Lodge in that place on Thursday of this week. Quite a number of the brethren from this place will attend. The blackberry crop, which promised to be unprecedently heavy, ha been badly damaged by want of rairil still a great many berries have been gathered and sold. They are large and of good quality. Miss Mary Harlacher left last week for New York City in company with her aunt Mrs. Graves who has been visiting Mr. Harlacher’s family. She will probably spend the summer in the metropolis with her aunt who is a wealthy and childless widow. Hon. George Major and wife re. turned last Thursday from a pleasant visit with children and friends in S. Dakota. Their daughter, Miss Alice, came with them for a visit of indefinite length beneath the parental rooftree. We are glad to state that the later reporta from Mr. Robert Love are much more encouraging; an eminent physician of Denver giving it as his opinion that a few months would see him restored to health. The world can illy afford to lose its young men, especially young men like Mr. Love. Mr. and Mrs. George Hart of Morocco, spent Sunday last with parents and friends in this place. Mr. Hart speaks in glowing terms of the outlook of Morocco and predicts that within a few years it will be the best town in Newton Co. Fifteen or sixteen new buildings have been erected this spring and summer and still there’s more to follow.
