Ira Cree, OF Greenleaf township, and
one Of Hand County's best and most en-
ergetic young men. has just purchased
another half section Of land in Greenleaf.
His new purchase is known as the Chas.
Saddoris place. Ira raised big crop last
year besides taking care OF the stock on
the home place for his mother. and he
thinks right next to him is the place to
invest. For a Young man, starting in
Hand county when boy, and without
assistance. he has shown what industry
aud careful management can do. The
big crop be mised was done practically
without assistance. and Ira says some
times it took as high as - hours out OF
the "a, but be feels satisfied for the time
and labor spent. This writer can attest
to the fact that it takes hard, persistant
work Of long hours to get little start In
life from foundation OF nothing, hut
the young man like Ira Cree who is will
ing. persistant and careful can accom-
plish measure Of success in any field.
To him and his kind the world doffs its

TELL THE NEWS.

While the PRESS has met with fair sue
cess in its efforts to secure and publish
local news OF hand county. yet il is i'm
possible for one person with multiplied
duties to learn all that is going on among
the people, unless they assist the news
paper man. Contrary. perhaps, to the
opinion Of some readers, personal and To-
cal items are not published by the
thorough newspaper because OF fayorit-
ism. As rule the newspaper man is glad
to get items of interest from any one
anxious in fact to report who comes and
goes, or anything happening in his CON-
munity that would be interesting or
beneficial to his readers or citizens. but
the country newspaper can not haye scores
Of salaried reporteres to find out all that
takes place in the county, and the publ
cation Of items, personal or otherwise, is
the result OF some person having told the
editor, or sent the same to the office. II
you think sometimes your local paper
fails to report matters OF interest tha, you
know Of, ask yourself first how would
the editor know IL unless you or some one
acquainted with the facts told him.
The PRESS is here to publish the news
first Of Hand county, about Hand county
people. without regard to race. color or
previous condition Of seryitude. II you
know anything Of interest tell the editor
or send IL to the PRESS. We want per-
sonal. society notes, township affairs
county news, births, deaths. marriages,
etc. Perhaps theirs is no plate salary in
this, but you would be- helping to make
and record Hand county history. Tel
