The County Commissioners have re­ ceived an application signed by a doz­ en or more residents of Bath and Miami townships to have vacated two old cross-roads, altogether about three miles long; one known as the Howard road and the other as the old Yellow Springs road, lying west of Yellow Springs. The roads have practically been abandoned, and in some places it is difficult to tell that a road exists at all. No action has yet been taken by the commissioners. —-Dont forget that Cooper as usual will have a big stock of candies nuts fruits etc for Christmas. OHIO CROPREPORT. • ■*!»«*«■.‘ItW , ' The state board of agriculture crop report issued Saturday declares the out look /or the wheat crop in 1905 to be very discouraging. The extreme drouth and the ravauges of the ‘Hes­ sian ily have contributed chiefly to; this end. Since November 1 the crop is esti­ mated to have gone back 12 percent. Should the winter prove severe,’it is altogether likely that large areas will be plowed up in the spring. Gener­ ally the fields are thin, and iu places the fly has damaged as much as 10 percent! Ohio’s com. product this year was estimated ,af92,000,000, but consid­ ered a very satisfactory showing The statistical report show. Wheat condi­ tion compared with an average 75 per­ cent, amount of crop of 1904 sold as soon as threshed 42 percent, damage to growing crop by Hessian fly 3 per­ cent, damage to growing crop by white grub 1 percent. .

Dr.'Holmes' Shoe Horn That Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes was not only the autocrat of the breakfast table., 'says the Boston, Herald, but was" also an autocrat of himself, is humorously illustrated, in his ’four foot long shoe born,1 Which is, now one of the prize relics of famous people in the possession' of Dr. John Dixwell of West'Cedar street. The autocrat; though a little mah physically, was big in dignity—and philosophy. The bending'down to* put on a low shoe by the use of the -ordinary born seemed to him to smack -of Toutisliness, and . besides .was there not in the act a needless, an uneconomic, waste of red corpus^ cles? - Accordingly, he had a“ common steel b I ioc -born affixed.to a long eanelike handle and ever after; gave an exhibition of ,a gentleman pat­ ting on jus boots in conformity with the most exacting laws of deport* meni and hygiene, Abounding Information.
