FARMINGTON TIMES, Farmington, St. Francois County, Missouri, Friday, July 7, 1905 RURAL DELIVERY ROUTE No. 3 We are thankful for the fine rains of the past week. A. J. WAMPLER is putting a hay fork and track in his barn and making other improvements. The wheat crop is light on this route, fruit is almost a failure and grass is short, but corn looks well. Chas. YEARGAIN has eight or nine fine Hereford calves in his herd of Shorthorns, among them one pair of twins; also a very fine young colt from Artist, the fine stallion kept by Doc. MACKLEY. Our farmers are getting up-to-date on fine stock. Elmer HARRELSON of St. Louis and Miss HARRELSON, who is attending the Gem City Business College of Quincy, Ill., visited their parents near Chestnut Ridge a short time week before last. Miss Nellie returned to Quincy Saturday and Elmer on Thursday. C. J. HARRELSON came very near losing a fine young cow recently. The cow had eaten the wilted leaves of a wild cherry tree which he and some workmen had cut down while blazing out a way for a wire fence near a creek on his farm. Paste that in your hats, boys.
