LOCALS, (Corn in the shock could, no doubt, be bought at a reasonable price. The Bradford hunting party saw a deer on Tuesday, but he was not killed. Dr. H. 8. Braueht, of Spring Mills, accompanied by his som Dean D,, were in Centre Hall the latter part of last week, [the former having come here to examine an applicant for life insurance, William H. Motter, who recently made sale of his farm stock and imple- ments in Georges Valley, and is now located in lock Haven, was in town on Wednesday. Today ( Thursday ) he returned to Lock Haven. The W. H. Bartholomew farm, west of Centre Hall, has been sold to Frank Osman, of College township. The consideration is not given to the put- lic at this time.- Mr. Osman will be in Centre Hall on Saturday, at which time the papers will be signed closing the sale in legal form. On going to his barn on Monday morning, William Walker, a farmer west of Centre Hall, discovered one of his two horses lyin z dead in its stall. The horse, which was purchased some time ago for $175, was driven to Belle foute on Saturday. He ate his feed at supper time and showed no signs of sickness that were observed by the Owner, County Buperintendent of Schools D O, Etters was in Centre Hall Tuesday and paid his first visit to the borough schools duriog this term. He, of course, found everything in good working order. Generally speaking, Mr. Etters says, the schools in Centre county are in very good standing. He paid a compliment to the younger teachers for their ag- gressive work. Mr. and Mrs. John H. Weibly, of Linden Hall, were in town on Friday. Mr. Weibly is track foreman on the Linden Hall section on the Lewis burg and Tyrone, and has in his force three men—John Diehl, Leonard Wilson and James LL. Brown. They are now preparing to substitute eighty- five pound rails for seventy pound rails. This means some hard labor, Fhere is nothing so bad that it might not be worse. Marcellus Ban- key, of near Millheim, will subscribe to this any day since a thief stole all the mest of a hog, except, the hams and a small piece of boiling meat, kiil- ed by bim recently. The meat was stored in the summer house for safe- keeping, but the doors were not proof against the thief who was after dressed pork, worth at least twelve cents per pound, Zz Lumber fifty years old was worked into window sashes for the dwelling house of W. J. Mitterling, in Centre Hall, The white pine was first pur- chased from a lumber firm in Ciear- field county by James Kimport, of Linden Hall, in 1860, and transported by wagon. About eight years ago A. P. lL.use & Son purchased the lot from Mr. Kimport, and when Mr. Mitterliog gave his order for the sashes this lumber was used in their con. \struction. Emanuel P. Bhook, of Spring Mills, has very much improved from the in- jaries received in a fall from a ladder while picking apples, and by the time this item is being read, he will be able to move around the house on crutches. While quite seriously in. juried, Mr. Bhook’s condition was never quite so bad as he was reported to be in the newspapers. The Report- er is glad to note his continuous ime provement, and hopes soou to ssy that he is able to attend to business as he did before the mishap occurred. Talk about boroughs having high taxes, then recall that as number of property owners to the scuth side of Centre Hall station have conceived the idea that it would be a good move from the viewpoint of economy to be included within the incorporated limits of this town. [hey are quite right in their conclusions, the advantages to be gained by these property owners by becoming borough residents is much more than the apparent tax increase in the borough over that in Potter town- ship. Add to their present advan. tages thee items: convenient schools, water, light, and they will have acquire. ed much more than the tax boogaboo Aug to. repr asi A APPLES AND POTATORY Shipped from Centre Hall Aggrogite Many Thousands of Hashels, The apples and potatoes shipped from Centre Hall station this season aggregate many thousands of bushels, The price paid for spples was forty cents for the fall and fifty cents for the winter varieties. The quality of the apples was very fair, but no orchards had full crops, many bering only about enough for family use. The Centre Hall Evaporating Company handled the larger part of the apple crop in this community, and besides the several thousand bushels used at the evaporating plant, several thous and bushels of hand-picked apples were shipped by them, most of which were marketed in barrels. There were many local lots shipped out by individuals, It is estimated that the total sales made at the local station was between five and six thousand bushele. This does not include the apples used at the evaporator, which were purchased by the hundred weight, About fifteen car loads of potatoes were handled at the Centre Hall sta- tion, twelve cars of which were bought and shipped by the Howard Creamery Corporation, and the re mainder by R. D. Foremsau. These shipments represent about ten thous- and bushels. There are yet many potatoes in the hands of the growers that will be put on the market later on. Most of the farmers on the south side of Potter township haul their polatoes to Mifflin county during the winter months, and those who follow this practice have not yet commenced to unload their crop. The price paid for nearly sll, If not all, the potatoes bought during the past two months was forly cents, The crop was a very good one, and the quality with reference to sizs was also good, lil a —— Harris township Miss Mary Corl Is visiting in Belle fonte this week Frank Fisher and family, of Al toons, visited in Boalsburg over Bun- day.
