Mrs. Geo. Thomas is on the sick list. Henry Schmidt intends to rent his farman'tbuiidin town. Our Creamery is again in full blast running two wagons. Ed. Fleming and Geo. Hollister are the haulers. Several of our people contemplate taking in the excursion to Michigan City the Bth. R. Halleck and family are in camp on the Stout ranch, where they are running a large force of hands putting up hay.
