Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 45, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 February 1909 — Page 4 Advertisements Column 4 [ADVERTISEMENT]

Don’t leave yonr hor.es and other 1 stock exposed to the weather. This j warning is especially timely now, but stock should never be exposed. The hitch barns In Rensselaer give the very best care of stock and it costs but a little to stand horses in from the weather. A citizen spoke to the reporter recently about seeing a nice driving horse, covered only with a light blanket, stand all day and until date in the evening hitched to a post For a nickle the horse could have had a pleasant day In a stable. No one knows what the suffe.ing of a dumb animal is under such, conditions. Give the horse a square deal. A letter from Earl Sayler, new of Mayville, N. D., In which be encloses $1.50 for a renewal of his SemiWeekly subscription, says: “The paper is coming regularly and reaches us on Thursdays and Mondays. We enjoy it very much. We hope the lot sale will be a success as we feel a deep interest in Rensselaer. We are all well. Our large rooming house is filled with normal students. I see by the paper that about, 22 families from the neighborhood of Remington, Wolcott and Brook, are going to locate in North Dakota, abcut 25 miles from where we live. If there should be anyone from that neighborhood that is thinking of locating out here, I will be glad to help them find a location if they will either call on me or write to me, as I am qui’e well acquainted in this neighborhood. We have had hut little snow and consequently but little sleighing, but It has been pretty cold, on one occasion as low as 38 degrees below zero. During the cold weather the trains had difficulty In running on time, some being 10 to 12 hours late. I hope all Rensselaer friends are well.”
