What has been done at Monticello can be accomplished in Rensselaer with a united effort. The association at Monticello now holds 80 acres of ground through which it is now building a belt railroad and otherwise improving and preparing for further industrial developments. Buy bread at the Home Grocery. Dr. J. W. Horton has purchased the fixtures of the Wolcott saloon which went out of business Saturday night and will use them in the restaurant to be run by his son, Perry, in the new Horton block. Owing to the spread of dry territory which is forcing so many saloons out of business there is a great amount of saloon fixtures for sale. Furniture costing hundreds of dollars can be purchased for a song. The fixtures bought by Mr. Horton cost originally over a thousand dollars and was purchased by him for nearly a tenth of that sum. The furniture has been stored pending the completion of his building. Some fine bacon—special 17c a pound at the Home Grocery.
