The Farmers’ Institute.

The Farmers Institute, at the court house last Thursday and Friday was a decided success m everything bat attendance, and even in that respect was by no means a failure. The severe storm of Tuesday and Wednesday, had a bad effect in preventing attendance from a distance. But-all things considered, the attendance was fairly good, and it is evident that the interest in these Institutes is constantly growing among our farmers, and we confidently believe that in a year or two more, it will be hard work to find a room large enough to accommodate the crowds who will attend. The principal instructors, Messrs. Voyles and Mount, are both excellent m their specialties, and the local speakers also acquitted themselves with credit. There was no politics or other element of discord introduced during the session, and everything passed off with the utmost good feeling. The election of Institute officers for the ensuing year resulted as follows: President, D. H. Yeoman, Vice-president F. W. Bedford; Secretary, C. D. Nowels; treasurer, Wm. Hoover. It was decided to hold another session of the Institute in March, further notice of which will be given later.

Pushing Things at Purdue.

An order for SIO,OOO worth of machinery for the fitting up of the improvised Purdue shops has been sent east, and in a very few days nearly all of the departments will be running. A new building 20x50 feet has already been erected, and other temporary shops are to be built at ODce. There is nothing slow about Purdue, the President and the faculty. Six hours after the big fire they were all deep in the work of taking a fresh start, and there will be no halt now until the shops are rebuilt, finer and more complete than ever.—Lafayette Courier.

FROM SURREY.

Prayer meeting every Thursday evening, at Vaughn. The w edding and mnd-dog excitement is quiet at present, but how soon they may break out again ii not known. Sunday hunting is now a thing of the past in this community among the boys. Stick to it young men and you have complied with one commandment. There is considerable clearing off of wood pastures this winter, by cutting and burning brush. Its a good time now, for everything is below par. Some men are working for their board and trusting to Providence for clothes. Surrey Ite.

REMINGTON ITEMS.

Friday Jan. 26th to Mr. and Mrs. Fred Huffman, a son. Mrs. Ica Morris’ son is quite sick with scarlet fever. Bom Monday last to Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Peffley, a nine pound boy. W. L. Gumi® and Dr. Traugb went to Indianapolis Friday, to lay in their spring stock of bicycles. We see in the Wolcott Enterprise that Earnest Hart has accepted a position as tinner at that place. Mr. Hunt’ateam ran away Thursday noon and spilled some of his coal. There was no damage done otherwise.

Mr. Mason was in town last week. He has sold his interest in the grocery at Elwood to Charles Bull 1 . Miss Sallie Rawlings is very low with consumption. She was thought to be dying Sunday, but at present writing had rallied somewhat. The little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Sanderson, of Brook, is dangerously sick. Mrs-. Sanderson was formerly Miss Etta Bhrtoo of Remington. We are once more supplied with an extra m ail. As the six a. m., train takes away a mail bag, and the 9 p. si., leaves one—jost the reverse of what it was before. Carl Stoll, wno got lime in his eye "while plastering at Mr. Clowery’s new house over two weeks ago, is still suffering very much with it. They fear, he will lose it entirely.. , Mrs. Patton, who returned home from Oklahoma last week, is so much in love with the country that they are talking of moving there. The Dr. will be home in Feb.

Tom Porter was arrested Tuesday a. m., for jumping on the 9 p. m>. train Monday. He was fined one dollar and costs, making it cost his father about ten dollars. If some more of oar reckless boys were served in the same way it would be a good thing. Messrs. Webb Reed, of West Lebanon, and Westley Reed, of Rantoul, 111., are here in attendance at the bedside of their mother, Mrs. Wm. Reed, who is very sick, and not expected to recover. Mrs. Rfced Jives with her son, Nathan, who has no family. Married, on Thursday evening, Jan. 25, at the residence of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Ford, Mr. Jacob Henslen and Miss Anna Ford. Elder Carson per formed the marriage service. The young couple will live on the farm which Mr. Hensler bought of his father several miles north of town.

Henry Phelps the 7 year old son of John Phelps met with a serious accident Monday. He was left in charge of the store while his father went to dinner, and while playing with a feed cutter his fingers got caught in the cogs mangling them so that amputation of the first and second fingers of his right hand was necessary. Mrs. Perry died Saturday morning, Jan., 27, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Alison. She had not been well for some days, but her death was very sudden and quite unexpected, and was caused by an internal hemorrhage. Her home was in Winamac where she lived all alone, her husband having preceded her to the /better land.” She came here about two weeks ago. She was sixty-five years of age. The seance held Monday evening in Dr. Trough's office was very well attended, and quite a success from a financial standpoint. The originators netting the neat, little sum of thirty-five dollars. The tickets were one dollar apiece, and no admittance except to gentlemen accompanied by ladies. From the “talk about town” they must have had quite a lively time. Some of our most prominent citizens were present, and took part in the exercises of the evening. The “spirits” appeared in a new role. We believe it has hitherlo been the custom of calling up the spirits of deceased people, but times will change, and it seems to be no longer necessary as live spirits were present at the above mentioned place.

They’ll Dellrer Yonr Groceries. Remember that Warner A Shead, he Van Rensselaer street grocery and hardware firm, are now running a delivery wagon, and will deliver goods free to any part of the dty, on short notice.

For surfacing we-have estimated alt gravel, all broken stone, or part broken stone-surfaced with gravel. COST.

The difference we make In gravrimg er macadamizing Is based on our knowledge of where material can be hail and what ft will cost to place the same upon the road. Our estimate is based on good material either gravel or broken stone. If gravel Is used the larger partioles should lie evenly lakl In the bottom and the gravel should all be free from hlft.soti or quicksand, If macadam is used it should be so arranged tlmt the larger broken stone shall, be in the bottom aud the smaller ones on the surface. If macadam be covered with gravel the macadam should be first placed and the gravel pat ou top, to the depth indicated in the specifications.
