GRAHAM BoTroM ITEMS. The farm
ers up this way are very much
alarmed at the great wheat pest
the fly. Many have drilled their
wheat over. A great amount of
wheat has been sown this fall, but
does not promise very large crop.
Rev. W. S. Owens of Jackson
County preached to crowded house
of good people on Sunday, the 18th,
ult. We would like for him to Wis
it our neighborhood again for he is a
great lover of truth, and loves to
mete it out to his congregations
which are always large.
@Miner" Of New Haven, forgets to
say in his little article that their
Shattered" and damned" up school
building was good enough to occupy
while they used part Of the money
remaining in the treasury, and the
other sub.districts were not allowed
to.use even their share; now he rails
es wall for a new school building.
We do not see why some Of the tax
payers of this district, who are so
afraid Of spending a little money for
the advancement of the cause of edu-
cation, do not see into the matter Of
useing that money last spring. We
do not think that it is fair that one
sub-district should have from one to
three months school more than the
Others of the same district. We con
slider it the duty Of the present Board
of Education to see to the use Of the
money remaining in the treasury at
the close of the four months school,
which is what the people said by
their votes was all we should have,
but they say that they can do moth
ing with it, now we ask, why? Sure
ly it is unfair and there is a clue 10
its whereabouts.
On Wednesday evening, October
10Th, 1879 at the residence of the
brides father, David Jones, Esq, by
Rev. Ownes, Mr.. Jacob Fisher and
Miss Rejiha V. Jones. All of this
county. We wish them a pleasant
and peaceful journey through life.
