Bomberger of Harlan.
The Best Fruit Ran in Iowa Received
Many Premiums at Des Moiaes.
Two New Varieties.
W. M. Bomberger was very success
ful in his display of apples at the
meeting of the State Horticultural So
ciety in Des Monies last week. His
display was a large oue, aggregating
some thirty buauels aud a consider
able number of varieties.
He took second prize for the state on
best collection, second on bsBt ten box
es and first on best two new seedling
varieties. The prizes consisted of a sil
ver trophy cup, a gold pratcb, and
soma money premiums.
The new varieties shown were, one
a cross between the Jonathan and
Grimes' Golden, the other a cross be
tween tha Jonathan aud Willow Twig.
Both crosses
are a mighty good apple
Mr. Bomberger expected to bring
his prize winuing fruit home show
in his window at the Swaiu meat mar
ket, but Mrs. Governor Carroll desired
to buy it at a fancy price, so he sold it
to her.—Harlan Republican.
Thieves
One night last week some party
or parties went to W. R. Grimes'
farm west of town and roped one of
his fine yearling calves, led it to a'
straw pile some distance from tbe
house and butchered it, leaving the'
head on the ground.—Manilla
Times.
Itseema hardly possible that we
should have, iu such a law-abiding
community, anyone who nouid re
sort to such an act as this but it's
true nevertheless.
A few nights afterwards the sam%
miserable thief or some oneelBe un
locked a box containing parts of a
butchered bog at Charlie Milli
man's and took away about seventy
pounds.
Christmas night tbe same whelps
or some of their ilk, took Mr. Cban
try's winter supply of bard and
•oft coal out of his cellar while be
was enjoying a visit at the home of
a friend.
Notice
The meat market will be closed
on Sundays hereafter.

Dogs Avoid SmoothRoads
Good roads are winning a perma
nent place in popularity with the
farmers, than lists the Automobile.
Onr famous River to River Road
ia near and dear to those who live
near it or to those who are permit
ted to ride over it. \Ye eay permit
ted because Exira has a neighbor

send a dog over ii. This was evi
denced by the "around the world"
dog team which came through At
lantic last week and was advised to
go east over the White Pole Road.
