MENDOZA, June Is, 1895.

W. A. Eppler is proud of his stand
of alfalfa we are told.
Morton Bros. will have 100 acres Of
grain to cut and with nearly the same
crew as last year.
Ellis, ate dinner on Friday with Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Eaton.
Miss Kate Howe, who has been in
town for the past seven weeks will be
back home the last Of the week.
W. d. Lombard has a hen that
climbs the trees and throws off null
berries for her brood of chickens.
Mrs. George W. Scarlett and step
son, Of Junction City, are visiting the
home folks this week and viii return
next Monday.
Mr.. George LOetZ, Miss Jennie Con-
lon and Miss Florence Hallock, OF Ell
lis, were buggy riding Sunday in the
Adair country.
Joseph Runyon is going to buy if he
has not already bought it new
threshing machine and when the sea-
son opens will be found ready for bust
ness.
Last year there was a solid week Of
harvest in June. 1t will be later this
year. but the Fourth of July will be
celebrated by the Adair farmer in the
usual manner.
Mrs. Diedrichs little girl about six
years old has the WhO0ping cough as
have the rest of the children and
coughed so hard one day recently as
to burst blood vessel in her eye.
"Did you ever know the weeds to
grow as FAST" is the universal query,
and the answer is an emphatic one:
mo, | never did, But that's a sign
of rainy country and in this case is
a sure one.
Prof. W. ]. Quick. of the Missouri
Agricultural college and treasurer of
the Quick Ranch company, of Sharon
Springs, Kansas, in company with e.
| G. Waldo, of Ellis, was looking over
Howe's Irrigation Experimental sta
ton on Saturday forenoon.
Warren j. Williams has the rheu-
matiSm in his neck. At least that's
what they say ails him, but as he was
first afflicted soon after the late teach
er'S examination we SurmiSe that some
fair damsel got her arm around him
and as he wasn't used to it, it kind Of
got away with the boy.
The copied item in last weeks pa
fper from the Reyiew-Headlight was
partly incorrect. Another child OF
the Hiajk family died making six in
all, but this last child had got entire
| ly we'll of the diptheria and died of
heart disease. So we are informed by
the overseer of the poor Of the town
ship who was there every day.
T. S. Howe and the boys have got a
four inch cylinder for their second
pump and the last wheel about com
pleted SO in case we should have such
an unheard OF catastrophe as an Hi
nois dry spell they will be able to
pour on water anyway. And every
body laughs to think these irrigation
fellows have had no need for their
pump fxings and it's to be hoped they
never will have.
Nearly every one of any note has
the WhOODing cough. Amongst others
Mr.. Thayers children have it as well
as their mother, and that's only half
of it. the old man himself is trying to
cough up his shoe SOleS for chewing
gum. We are going over some day
when we get the weeds all killed and
hide behind tree and watch. Caleb
is about eight feet and half tall and
it surely is sight to see him with his
head between his ankles heaying up
Jonah. Kind of acts as a syphOn pump
as it were. So long as you keep the
mouth or discharge below the level of
the source or place it starts from, no
matter how high the bend between
its bound to come and sure to work.
