The season 10 sufficiently advanced to es'
tablish the fact that the crops Of Beaver.
head County will be over average. It IL
now quite certain that the grain crop will be
large and Of an excellent quality, and
inquiry among the grain.raisers confirms
a previous prediction that the crop, taking
the county all through, will be larger than
last year. OF the vegetable crop It may be
that sectors where the frost did its work
will fall behind, but other parts Of the
county will yield enough to make the crop
good one.

The new ediRce 10 to be q fire-proof brick,
one hundred feet long by forty feet wide.
The large and increasing trade Of this firm
requires larger building than the one now
occupied by It. We understand that work
will be commenced on the new building as
soon as the brick are burned and other ma.
terial can be provided.

hereafter" the newspaper man will not be
prosecuted in this way. Selah.
