PLEASANT HILL The falling off in eggs in this place is said to be due to lice in the hen roosts. One of our friends cleaned out his chicken house and put the manure in old sacks in the stable, near Dr. Keagy’s horse, and the insects went for the horse, who jumped and kicked the boards in splinters. On Wednesday, as J G. Werner took a load of berry pickers to his woodlot, he left the horses hitched to the wagon. When the pickers got back to the wagon, both horses were down, tangled in the harness. The young horse got up, but the other was so fast that they had to cut down two small trees. By good luck George Null and his boys were coming by and they had an ax to cut the trees. H. E. Nace has got another canvas straw carrier to one of his new threshers. Wesley Wareheim bought a good horse of Harry W. Parr last week. Jacob Craumer and wife made a trip to Virginia to see Jacob Massmore, who is very poorly.
