The recent importation of horses by the Lewis Manor Farm, Perrysburg, is well worth the attention of the farmers and breeders in this neighbor hood and a visit to these farms to see the stock will be a pleasant surprise to many. These horses are well worth any man's time to see, whether in the market or not. The Belgians are a splendid type, with the best of feet and legs, plenty of bone and quality, and have weight enough to suit anybody. These horses show for themselves that careful at tention must have been made in select ing them as they show strong indi viduality of their breed. The Shires are as good as I have ever seen and fit to show in any class. They are of excellent blood lines that show careful and conscientious mat ing. Most of these mares and stallions are only two years and three years old, which was a great surprise to me, as most of them must weigh a ton or over. The hunters are the first that have over been imported to this country, and are certainly magnificent horses, show ing great staying and jumping power, and built to carry a man the right way, and quite exciting to see the way they take the many different jumps at a gallop. Mr. Lewis deserves great praise for his skill in securing such splendid stock. It is coming to be recognized by all up-to-date farmers that it is just as cheap to raise good horses or horses of good blood, as to raise the ordinary kind, and it is well known that good horses and the colts, such as Belgians and Shires, bring prices far in exces"s of the common kind. There is no reason why this county, with its rich soil, should not become famous, as well as profitable, with its blooded stock. All the horses on the Lewis farms that are for sale should bo bought by the farmers of this coun ty, and none of them be permitted to go outside.

VMM PbtMl MM, JL i Two suits have been brought in com mon pleas court in which Frederick W. V. Colina is the plaintiff and Donald R. Ackhn is the defendant. In one suit the plaintiff seeks dissolution of a partnership and the appointment of a receiver pending the final hearing. He says that in March, 1912, the two entered into an agreement whereby plaintiff was to look after stallions and other horses belonging to the defend ant; that he as to receive half of the profits from the former and one-third of the profits by reason of selling the latter at an advance over their cost when purchased in England; also that he was to receive a shire colt born in 1912. He asserts he has fulfilled his part of the contract, but that the" de fendant has refused to. abide by the terms of the agreement and that it is impossible for them to settle. In a second suit Colina asks for $15,000 damages from Acklin for slanderous statements alleged to have been made by the defendant againsthe plaintiff, 35,000 on each of two counts, and $5, 000 for making a similar statement to plaintiffs wife, thereby causing a great nervous shock to her, according to the plaintiff. WE TRY TO PLEASE EVERYBODY. No one knows better than the coun try editor how utterly impossible it is to please everybody. We are glad to receive items of news from our subscribers and others, and we make every possible effort to write those items as nearly correct as pos sible. Of course, we make mistakes, but those people who find their items incorrectly reported should please re member that it is not always possible to correctly understand what is said over any telephone. In the matter of publishing items for entertainments we find we are also frequently misjudged. All -who' are interested in such matters should please understand that it has become necessdry for us to make one universal rule in regard to such matters, and that rule is: All items advertising an enter tainment at which an admission fee is charged, or which is con ducted for the purpose of making money, will be inserted only at the regular advertising rate of 5 cents per line. There will be no deviation from this rule, and we have been compelled to adopt it after finding that every other plan has only made us trouble and proven entirely unsatisfactory in every case. Wherever charity is needed, the edi tor will personally attend to his share of contributions, but in business mat ters, the above rule will be adhered to very strictly, and refers to every class of public entertainment where a price is charged. This rule is not made through malice or ill will toward any person or class of people We are very an xious to do everything possible for the advancement of Perrysburg and Per rysburg institutions, but experience has taught us that we only make trouble for ourselves by treating such matters in any other manner. WANTS A DIVORCE. Wm. Dnnniels has brought suit for divorce from Libbie Danniels on tho ground of willful absence for three years and gross neglect of duty. They were married at Perrysburg June 26th, 1901, plaintiff says, and have two children, aged ten and six, after whose care and support defendant agreed to look under an agreement entered into after her departure, according to plaintiff's statement.

I IttNIIfJSHlSfl I Because he afforded no shelter for a bunch of swine, nor a place fit for them to eat or sleep, Humane Officer Gangwer swore out a warrant for the arrest of Gust Kries, who resides on the Winchell farm, south of town. Numerous complaints had been made to the officer, and upon making an in vestigation he found the hogs covered with mud. part of which had frozen to their backs, and that they had nothing but a mud-hole for a bed. The feeding place was muddy and that mud to a depth of six to twelve inches covered the space in which they were penned. The case was tried before Justice Plummer last Tuesday, and the ac cused entered a plea of guilty, and was assessed a fine of $5 and costs, which amounted in all to $10.75. The fine was made light on account of the man having sold out and intending to leave this section. Also that he was a renter and was not provided with ma terial with which to build a decent place for the hogs. Risingsun Unique. EVANGELICAL CHURCH. Sunday School at 9:00 a. m.

All things for man's welfare here and hereafter, are to be found portrayed in it.J' Here Is a remedy that will cure your cold.

The Findlay Republican said: "The trial of the $100,000 damage case of George H. Phelps against the Ohio Oil Company, the Solar Refining Company the Buckeye Pipe Lino Com pany and the Standard .Oil Company came to an abrupt close in common pleas court Friday morning when Judge Frank A. Baldwin of Bowling Green, presiding in the trial, directed the jury to return a verdict of 5 cents for the plaintiff. Judge Baldwin's action was taken on motion of the defendants who asked several days ago that the court direct a verdict of nominal damages for Phelps. The costs will be taxed against the defendants. Phelps' contention in the case was that the Standard and its three former subsidiaries had entered into a com bination whereby competition was so stifled that he had been unable to sell the product of his oil leases for the sum he would have received had there been no "combine."
