and
PLEASANT GAP.
Minnie eGntzel, of Philipsburg, is
visiting at the Charley Bilger home.
Joe Huntsinger, of Pottstown, is
visiting with Miss Anna Mae Lambert.
“Abner Musser, wife and three chil-
dren, of Pitcairn, are visiting in our
town.
Miss Thelma Wallace, of Pitcairn,
is spending a few days with Beatrice
Noll.
Helen Glasgow, of Centre Hall,
spent the week-end with Miss Marga-
ret Keller.
Miss Jennie Zeigler, of Madison-
burg, spent the week-end with Miss
Helen Gettig.
Mrs. Ray Melroy is visiting this
week in Williamsport, in the Dr.
Langley family.
Miss Bess Eckenroth, who had been
spending the summer in California,
returned home Sunday.
The huge cherry crop harvest is
over; blackberries are now attracting
the attention of the pickers. 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.
Adrian Primrose and daughter Ol-
ive, of New York, are visiting George
Harrison, of Bellefonte, and the fam-
ily of W. A. Hoover, of our village.
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.

in this place.
Mrs. Emma Saunderly and her twin
sister, Mrs. McCartney, both of Altoo-
na, spent Sunday at the home of their
nephew, Hon. J. Will Kepler, in" this
place. . 4A
Word was received here yesterday
morning that Elmer Barr, who was
taken to the Geisinger hospital, in
Danville, ten days ago, underwent an
operation on Wednesday afternoon
and so far as results were concerned
it seemed very satisfactory. His sis-
) ter Sallie and Mrs. Minnie Goss are
with him.
The anniversary of the birth of Mrs.
Susan Goss was celebrated at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Elsie Corl,
on the old Goss homestead, with a din-
ner yesterday, to which many of her
relatives were invited.

Maxwell, near Albany, N. Y.
College to Train Men for Cow Testing
Work.
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.
