>From the Barnesville Enterprise, Thursday, October 20, 1881 "Sandy Ridge Threshing is done and most of those who have sold their wheat have delivered it at prices varying from $1.00 to $1.30, owing to the time of selling. From ten to twenty bushels has been the yield per acre this season. Joseph Garretson threshed over 500 bushels of oats. T. P. Hall has this season threshed over 1000 bushels of grain, and we learn the proprietors of the Steam Thresher have threshed about 30,000 bushels. Their work has given general satisfaction. David Vail, of New Sharon, Iowa, is visiting relatives in this neighborhood. Daniel Stanton drove a fine lot of hogs to Barnesville on the day of the election, but we understand they turned on him and came home in spite of generalship. Apples are rather scarce, though some persons will have enough for winter use. Potatoes are almost a failure on our Ridge. Some that planted extensively last spring have dug very meager crops, and some have scarcely obtained the seed planted. Veretas." Mt. Olivet to follow......Sharen
