Show The Ditches. A shott time ago Tiik IUjimjiiuuan called attention to the beauty, )et coinpaintlvo little cost of the Improved Improv-ed ditches aiound Hon. Moses Thatcher's Thatch-er's piopeity, and recommended it as most desliablc for any and all who wish to Improve their ditches nicely at the least epenso. We desire now to call )our attention to the same style of ditch In front of Mr. John Hlshop'siieat and attractive residence property on Fiist North street. This ditch Is just such as Mr. Thatcher's but not so strongly consti uctetl. This boxing 'vas put In eight years ago and against the advice of every ft lend and neighboi. Mi. lllshop has rathei cultivated cul-tivated the Idea of doing the othor thing nnd liiv.ui.ibly prolits by It. In this instance none of tliethieatencd things linvecome to pass In tho eight yeais, nnd tho box ditch bids fair to last nnother eight yeais. The ditches Improved In this manner are easy to keep clean and always prcsentuble, adding ad-ding to rather than detracting from the appearance of property. |
