Will II. Clark with "bag and
baggage" moved to farm near
Mineral Point this week. For the
past two years he has tried to "raise
the wind at brickmaking but the
wind and the rains together rather
had the better of him. The difficult
les he encountered two years ago es-
pecially, were very discouraging.
Through the whole summer he
found it impossible to lay brick
without contending with drenching
rains, though he worked ght and
day. The consequence was loss
outgo more than income. Last year,
At times when he was ready for
it was not much better
Will is a neyer-tiring worker; 80 is
his young wife. They have energy
md pluck that on the farm can only
be beaten by desperate ill-luck.

Mrs. J G. Clark to their new home.
