NeOshO Valley.

Neosho Valley, Kans., Feb. 15,-
Considerable sickness in the Valley,
mostly grippe.
e. B. Johnson has been quite sick,
but is improving.
The family of A. f. Blackburn have
been sick with the grippe.
Jack Splane and wife spent the day
with Harry Downings on Monday last.
Mrs. J. D. Thurman returned on
Tuesday last, from visit to her faith
er's home in Missouri.
Unless we get better weather soon,
it will be very difficult fer some to
make the annual move, March 1st.
Owing to the bad condition of the
roads many farmers at distance will
be unable TO attend the Farmers In
stitute that otherwise would have at
tended.
If the tramps who lodge in our
school house would be so kind as to
leave their muddy shoes and tobacco
outside the window, it would be high
ly appreciated by both teacher and
scholars.
In Neosho Valley items in last weeks
Blade, we find the following: sit is
now pretty generally concluded that
the fellow who stole the two hind quar-
tiers Of beef out of Remer's slaughter
house, some time ago, was democrat,
for if he had been republican he
would have taken the whole beef"
Correct you are neighbour had he been
a populist, he would have taken the
whole beef and the hide and then look
ed around for the liver.
