The Oskaloosa Independent, Jefferson County, Saturday, December 5, 1874 December 5, 1874

There's some stock wandering about town that should be sent to the poor farm. If
the owners cannot feed these animals let them be shot and not allowed to starve
to death.

Our old Dutch fathers used to say that the first three days of December govern
the winter, as the weather is then so will it be. All right!! we'll plant our
garden seeds in February next year.

Pretty cool even for this time of year! One night this week some "cheeky" fellow
visited J.C.W. DAVIS, northwest of town, and helped himself to a wagon load of
oats and apples, about 25 bushels of the former, John thinks, and six bushels of
the latter. The oats were taken from the bin and the apples from the cellar.
John was in town the next day buying locks.
