Congressman Gront at tricked the
sale of Oleomargarine )n the House
on Friday Inst and succeeded by a
vote of 198 to 92 in placing a tax of
ten cents per pound on colored Oloo,
and the two cent tax on nnooloredis
reduced to a quarter of a cent a
pound. The day before-the House
by a vote of 246 to 68 knocked the
canteen out, and of course the W.C
T. U. must be happy aud the soldier
has nothing to say. Score one for
the ladles.
If there should come a snow it
would stop all all hunting, ns it is
unlawful to kill or have game in
possession while the gronnd is cov
ered with snow. The fishing season
for blaok bass, pike, perch, yellow

30 pnd top it all, yon cannot slip
your game out of the state fter you

pretty near the point of having
neither fishing or hunting.
The fnrms of the estate of E. H
Smith were sold at public vendue on
Hnturdny at the hotel of John A
Wi'Ht brook. The homestead brought
18 dollars per acre and was knocked
off to Win. T. Smith. The farm at
Hniiieaville brought 25 per acre and
was bought by James Black of Mon
tngue Not many years ago this
proporty cost $H0 pornore. The first
named property contains 98 acres
and the last 130 aores. At the same
time Mrs. Zelma Van Fleet sold her
place consisting of 17 acres to Jos.
Johnson for 650 dollnre. The above
are all good properties and the rnle
seems to hold good that farms in
this sections bring just about the
cost of (he buildings thereon, and in
several Instances not that. If the
times are so good, will some one tell
me when the boasted good times will
strike farm lands.
Saturday was an ideal spring day
