Hon. Alex Billmeyer, of Wash
ingtonville, is not alone a good poli
tician and Congressman, but a good
farmer as well. His yield this year
on his own home farm he estimates
at 4,. r >lM) bushels of wheat, 10,(MM) bu
shels of oats, 211,000 bushels of corn
on the ear, 1000 tons of hav, b r >o bu
shels of clover seed. He makes
farming pay.—Bloomsburg Sentinel.
The present year should be one of
the best that farmers have had for a
long time past, if good crops com
bined with good prices cut any tig-;
lire. It is seldom that the two go
together. The hay crop was good, |
while the oats crop is one of the best j
that has been harvested in many j
years. The corn crop is very prom- j
ising while potatoes will yield onor-1
mously.
A few weeks ago a dog at New
Albany became affected with the

shot. The cow was bitten tive weeks j

until the animal developed alarming
symptons, when she was tied with a j
large rope, but that being insuffi- j
cient to hold the raving animal, ,a
log chain was used to keep her from
breaking away. She was finally
shot to end her suffering. On Mon
day last another cow belonging to 1
Ray Miller of the same place had to
be shot for the same cause. , t
The work of cutting down the ,•

WITH THE NEW YORK LIFE
BRCAUSK—lncontestable from the

without restrictions. Because non
forfeitable from date of issue. Be
cause—cash loans are provided after

Because—if death does not occur an
accumulative policy is a highly profi
table investment for the policy-holder ■
who lives.
Policies now maturing to living
