Norman Medium, q very valuable
stallion, owned by Charles E. Waters, OF
Minneapolis, died Of Inflammation OF the
bowels few days ago. The horse was
but Z years old.
Ports Patriot: E. O. Storer, living
south of town, has put in 100 acres of
wheat this fall and says he has sold $500
worth of cattle since last March.
Downs Times: The water in the
river is getting quite low. At Stockton
the mills can run only three to four
urs day. The union mills at this
place cannot run full time.
Downs Chief: We hear much about
hard times and the poor crops we have
in Kansas, but J. G. Meyos. an honest
and hard working man, went to the
neighborhood Of Clay Center eight years
ago with almost nothing but his bare
hands. He and his wife have made one
trip to England, costing him 5000, have
fed and clothed six children, and TO- day
have comfortable home worth $1,000
and no indebtedness. All this has been
won by straightforward hard work in
Kansas that SO many curse.
