Editor’s Note: the humble correspondent in Plum Grove, A Star Cus, leads off his report this week with a of bit self-advertising, self-worth to the editorial board of the Peabody Gazette; notes the bounty of a local ”successful” farmer’s peach orchard; ”num skull’s” recent pilgrimage to Reno; and, ”the next in the line” series, his count of eligible local matrimonial parties.
No feature of a newspaper like the Gazette is of more importance than it’s county correspondence. We are aware that there is not a community in Marion or the northern portion of Butler county, but can furnish a correspondent to write up the news that transpires in his vicinity. The editor, no doubt, will heartily appreciate the services of such as will write up the news in his vicinity.
