The growing truck has ! improved at h ast 25 per cent i since the rain has stopped, and i the ground is getting very dry. j It the dry weather continues without rain I tear the crops i will stifler. Mr. Editor I did not see you at the Shiloh picnic, where were you 5 There was a large crowd and everybody seemed to be in the best of humor and many friends and relatives greeted each other. In fact. Sir. Editor, the labors of the day, dainties of the table and bounteos supply of lemonade was a grand succes, you ought to have been there. I see in your columns an account of a strange animal seen by Mr. Eugene Acker man, and strange, indeed, it is, from description, I have wondered where such a being came from. Did it come out of the waters of the great deep? Surely it could not have come from the moon whilst the sun was in eclipse, taking advan tage of the shadow and sliding down through the shade to this world. No I rather be- sea. FOR CORONER.

The Queer Animal Again. Colleton’s queer animal turned up in a most unexpected manner a few days ago, in the form of his Satanic Majesty’s most unmitigated truth- twister. This nameless terror, like the dread back-biter of which all impsare made, has undertaken to utter a falsehood which is wholly without foundation. If this name less terror could look into a mirror and see himself, he too, would jump like a Kangaroo and bray, like a Jackass, as the wonderful animal conjured up by his imagination. As to detailing a companion-, to accompany me to my farm, 1 would advise that he (I mean "it”) should get some boon companion to assi. t in the pursuit of his scattered brains. I should suggest the long limbed sky scraper that he said sent for me. Now, “Mr. Writer with nonamt” I want to say that you are the queer, est specie of the animal kingdom and you remind me of that old adage “An empty wagon makes the most noise.” Take my advice and bridle the unruly member in tbe cavity of your head and try to recover your scat tered brains.
