A Correction
Perry Henry, agent for the
Kolburn commission company of
Stillwater, paid out $387 lor
country produce last Saturday.
About $125 went for cream
alone, the remainder for chickens
and eggs. This is pretty good
for one day's business. Mr.
Perry informs us that one of our
correspondents was in error as
to the cream separator bought
by Mr. Gadberry. It was a
"Beatrice" separator that Mr.
Gadberry bought, and Mr.
Henry sold the machine, instead
of as the correspondent stated.
We suppose, of course, the cor-
respondent was misinformed.
