The threshing machine crowds were favored last week with pleasant weather Rtid good ra tions. We undeaswnd that Lacy Sharpe failed to get through thjreshing one evening they worked as long as they could see to tell wheat from oats and Lacy, rather than furnish breakfast for the crowd, hauled the balance of his crop to a neigh^rs house next morning and had it finished, ^ceis a great economizer but this case may hftve been due to the fact that he had his hair cut recently and hair cutting is rather expensive these hard times. ^ ^ u- John Isley hauled part of his wheat to Landy Watkins to have a grist or two threshed to do him until he got ready to thresh his main crop and when John got ready to move the straw home Landy told him he had as well leave it alone as it will all be m the s: me family soon any way. “Dan*’ seems to be busy with Landy and Miss Flossie these days any way. ^ .

Mr Sharpe brought them over to the mail box in a sack and we thought from the looks of them while in the sack that he had two nice cabbage heads for us. We were judging by the size of them while in the sack. Several of our patrons kindly donated other vegetables and fruits but the list is too long to mention separately, It is sufficient to say that we appreciate it and have had peacfi “so.ikers” for sevei'al days at our house.
