at home like chickens, there
would be no potato buRS. Why
not? Guineas, turkeys and chick

Advertisement.
Hull and Bender, proprietors
of the Racket Store, placed a
new advertisement with the
News this week. They keep
open late at night to accommo
date busy farmers who may not
wish to spare daytime for shop
ping purposes. Take a peep at
the prices they quote.
Luther Raby was found dead
in the chicken coop at the rear of
the lot at his home in Mercers
burg last Friday morning. He
had lived alone, and it is suppos
ed that he had been dead two
days when found. Mr. Raby was
the janitor of the Presbyterian
church. One of his brothers com
mitted suicide by hanging him
self in a barn a few years ago.
This is the time of year when
we walk the streets looking in
vain for friends from the country
with news up their sieves. But
we console ourselves with the
thought that they are at home
harvesting dollars to spend later.
We will do the best we can to fill
the paper with hot weather read
in', although we feel sure that it
is hotter in town than out in the
harvest field. One thing of
which we are sure is, gathering
news in harvest time is less con
ducive to sound sleep than gath
ering sheaves. s
At a recent meeting of the Bed
ford County Pomona Grange, the
following resolution was unani
mously adopted; "Resolved, That
we will not in the future support
for office men who sign liquor ap
plications; or who appear in court
to plead the cause of liquor li

fore election put a plank in his
platform declaring that, if elect
ed he will be governed in the
matter of license by the wishes
of a majority of the people of the
district, as shown by signers for
the applicant and for a remon
strance, if any-there be.

Learning A. B. C'S At Seventy.
This is the title of an article by
Secretary of the interior, Lane,
which appears in the Philadel
phia Press of June 28th. It is a
most interesting account of the
efforts being made to teach fath
ers, mothers, grandfathers and
grandmothers to read and write.
Mr. Lane tells some startling
facts about persens well up in
years who cannot read a word or
even write their own names.
A new series begins in the
Sunday Press next week called
"On The Field of Honor," by
Edgar Allen Forbes. It is an ac
count of Historical American Du
els. The first of the series de
picts the fatal duel between Ad
miral Decatur and Captain Bar
ron. These are only two of the
many features of next Sunday's
Press.

A letter from G. D. Morgret,
farming near Cumberland, Va.,
says they began cutting wheat
on the 10th of June, and at the
time of the writing of his letter
June"16th he was done cutting,
and had his wheat in the barn.
Mr. Morgret says there is lots
of corn to plant in his neighbor
hood yet Well, Well! Up here
in Fulton county, we never both
er with the harvesting until we
get our corn planted.
The Pennsylvania State Forest
Academy, at Mont Alto, is erect
ing a tower, fifty feet high, on
the "white rocks." This will en
able the fire wardens to look over
the entire South mountain and
detect a fire in its incipiency.
The tower will be connected with
the Forest Academy by telephone.
An acquaintance recently pass
ed along a road while it was
raining. He saw a small limb
the size of his finger lying across
the roadside gutter. He thought
of removing it but didn't. When
he returned that way in the even
ing there was a washout where
the limb had diverted a small
amount of water. It cost his town
ship probably ten dollars to re
pair the work of that little stick.
Another instance where a little
unselfish public spirit would have
been profitable to that man.
Mr. Frank II. Locke, former
ly of Fort Littleton, but now a
resident of Swiss vale, Pittsburg,
is the p.roud father of another
bouncing boy. Frank has now
four of thv3 finest boys in Pittsburgh.
