The blackberries are finely developed and the yield is a very prolific one. T. E. Jodon, our cattle buyer, is again busy buying cattle. He has about 25 head in his spacious pasture grounds and more coming in daily. Tommy is partial to the handling of choice blooded stock, however, he turns down nothing that is marketa- ble. Mr. Jodon disposed of a car load of choice cattle Monday last. Qur farmers are agreeably surpris- ed since our thresherman, Collins Baumgardner started in on his thresh- ing tour. Wheat is yielding far above the average; the wheat heads are much larger than usual and exceeding- ly well filled. This is good news for our farmers, as under existing circum- stances they need all they can get.

Mr. Primrose is a manufacturer of vi- olins, while his daughter is a superb manipulator of the piano, her quali- fications in that line being unexcelled; both have made many friends during their brief sojourn here. Some of our office seekers are mak- ing frequent inquiries as to how many registered women voters we have in Spring township. I am in possession only of the number that were entitled to vote at the time of their first vote, as follows: South precinct, 245; North Precinet, 191; West, 168; a to- tal of 604. A svfficiency to cut quite a figure if all would vote. However, not one-fourth voted; and the vote has been falling off annually. Now that they are obliged to pay taxes same as men they may recuperate and declare themselves. PINE GROVE MENTION. Miss Margaret Robinson, of Altoo- na, is visiting at her parental home here. Miss Edith Sankey, of Centre Hall, is visiting at the Charles Smith home in this place.

His sis- ) ter Sallie and Mrs. Minnie Goss are with him.

Because of the great shortage of men trained for cow testing associa- tion work, the dairy department of The Pennsylvania State College will give a short course of six days begin- ning August 13th, to train men for the positions now open. The only quali- fications for entrance regu:ired by the college officials are accuracy with fig- ures, practical dairy experience, hon- esty, and good judgment. Testing associations in fifteen coun- ties of Pennsylvania are organized and ready to begin the testing work as soon as capable men can be secur- ed. A number of other counties plan to start associations in the near fu- ture. The counties in which associa- tions are already organized are: Cen- tre, Potter, Clarion, Bedford, York, Lawrence, Monroe, Bucks, Erie, Craw- ford, Huntingdon, Bradford, Clear- field, Lehigh and Perry. “Officers of associations are offering from $75 to $100 a month and board for good testers, and several large as- sociations will pay more,” says C. R. Gearhart in commenting on the short- age. ——About the only way to recon- cile State Treasurer Snyder to the new conditions at Harrisburg is to let him in on the patronage. .
