the HERALD a friendly call Friday
last.
The Stockton NeaOs was all Fair
last week, publishing the constitution
and bylaws and premium list. That
is right, keep it before the people Bro
Maynard.
Judge Pratt returned on Thurs.
day from Norton. Having a light
docket it. was disposed of in short order.
The Judge reports some good shOwings
in Norton, in the crop line and things
fairly prosperous.
Come to the Fair! Come from
every where! The managers expect
to have the best Fair ever held in the
Northwest. Each Township in the
county ought to have exhibits, show
what you have done and what can be
done in Phillips county. 1t will pay
you.
Amos EwelI, Trustee of Solomon,
made the HERALD a call Saturday.
Mr.. E has done good work in put
ting in the Deer Greek bridge on the
Marvin road. We hope soon to have
as good one on the road leading west
at J. N. McIlvain's place.
Rev. e. Goodrich of Freedom
made the HERALD a pleasant call
Friday. Mr.. G. has charge of the NJ.
E. circuit in the north part of the
county, is a young minister of much
promise. Although this is his first
year in the work, he is recognized as
among our best ministers.
Andrew Baker, of Norton Co, who
lives on the divide between the head
of Deer Creek and Prairie Dog,
raised this year, over 1000 bushels of
small grain and 1900 of corn. Mr..
Baker has lived Norton about three
years and when asked by Judge Pratt
how he managed to raise. so much
more than some others, said II work
ed for it," More men might achieve
success in the same way.
MIR. Samuel Hebrew, of Bow
Greek, passed through the Burg on his
way to the B. & M. r. R., with the
product of his creamery. Mr.. H has
shown what can be done by enterprise.
We hope ere long to see this one of
the great butter producing regions,
and being located so near Denver and
the Mountains it can be made to pay
well.
AS Gov. st. John will speak at
Phillipsburg, Saturday, Oct. 9TH, the
day recommended to hold the township
primaries, we hope the committeeman

done i'll some cases. Kirwin has call
ed the caucus for Oct. 9, which, prob
ably, is as good time as any. Every
Republican ought to attend the pri-
maries, and see that good men are
sent as delegates and, also, every Re
publican ought to hear Gov. st. John.

IS. G. Pillsbury, of Long Island,
is working fifty-five acres of sorghum
of his own raising, besides a large
amount for his heighbors. His ar
fragments for manufacturing are very
complete, on cheap scale. He gets
from 100 to $50 gallons of syrup to
the acre, which is worth fifty cents
per gallon, thus making from fifty to
seventy-five dollars to the acre. It
costs no more to produce a gallon of
