Camping parties have in contem- plation to pitch their tents in the meadows along Little Chiques creek, adjacent to the lower Green Hills. The crop of early potatoes in this section has exceeded expectations. Old potatoes, which were readily disposed of at $1.25 per bushel, have declined to 75 cents. Young live chickens are in demand and so are young ladies—the former for consumption, the latter for in- dispensable culinary purposes. The demand for cows here is unprecedented. Wherever a cow is offered for sale there are adozen pur— chasers. Milk, it is said, will ad- vance, and they will soon pay for themselves. John F. Baker, who was seriously hurt in a runaway a week ago, is re- covering slowly.
