18980709 Uniontown District Items by the Democratic Advocate

Democratic Advocate: Uniontown District Items July 9, 1898

Democratic Advocate, July 9, 1898.

Prof. Samuel Bowers caught a carrier pigeon on Saturday last. The band on its leg was 77-P.F.S.-96. The pigeon has been around Mrs. Bowers' barn for several weeks and has mated with a common pigeon. When first caught the bird seemed very much frightened, but afterwards became tame and could be picked up by any one. The barley crop is not as big as last year.
