County Poor FARM.-The Cha irman Of
the County Board have called meeting for
next Friday, to take into consideration the
question OF buying farm for county poor
farm. We understand that the place spok-
EN- of IS Mr.: Williams farm on Spring
creek. This is In Our judgement one Of the
very best in the country, and is offered re.
markably cheap-three thousand dollars
There is about 200 acres Of land, early 10o
acres Of which is broken up and fenced. The
purchase Of this, or some other equally good
place will be the best ~, hat has yet been
done foe the county
SELECT Your Lott is particularly
desirable that thc'citizens come up and Sc.
'cct their lot in the cemetery as soon as
possible. The city has made good road
and appropriated money enough to fence it
in, which will be done this spring The
money derived from the sale Of lots is in
tended to be used entirely in improving the
ground, and it would be an excellent thing
o: two or three hundred trees could be Sc,
out there this spring. IL those Of the cit
liens OF Red Wing who intend to take lots
will do SO soon, the city council will See
HIT the money is properly expended.
