Mr.. Adolph Karcher is making
preparations for building a new barn
this spring. The size is 30x60 with a
basement under it.
The bridge on Fox river is yet i'm
passable. The freshet has done consid-
cradle damage to it, but the bridge still
remains. The only way for us to cross

THE WINTER SCHOOLS.


The past winter, or rather the present
winter. has been unfayorable for good
attendance at school. In the fore part
of the winter the roads were hard and
dry. and everything looked favorable,
and the attendance promised to be the
best that we had ever had. But since
the middle of January it has been one
storm after another, rendering the
roads impossible, and making it almost
impossible for children to get to school.
There has also been an unusual amount
of sickness throughout the country.
Measles have had a clear field, and
showed no fayors. Mumps, whooping-
cough, and lung diseases have been in
many of our schools. Schools of forty
pupils have dragged along for weeks at
a time with from six to ten pupils.
Taken altogether, the winter has been
a hard one on schools, and teachers in
the summer schools will have to work
the harder to make up for lost time.
BY the way, we have always heard
that wet, open winter was bound to
cause sickness, while steady. cold
winter was conducive to health Now
the winter of 1880 was remarkably
open and wet, yet there was very little
sickness. The winter of 'S0-'S1 was
cold, very cold and yet there has been
more sickness, and more deaths have
occurred within the last six months
than during any, other winter in the
history of the county. Will some of
our medical or scientific men explain
this matter
