T. H. Holland: Am buying lots of
wheat this season. Will buy grain at
five station next year. Two Oh the ex-
tension, also at Osnabrock and Edlnburg,
and of course Langdon.
Yves Mahon: Halt car load OF
iron pumps we're sold by D. H.McMillan
this fall, which furnishes forcible illus
tration OF the demand for water and the
increasing popularity Of the prohibition
law around here.
E. c.. Dedrlck: Correct the error you
made in that local of ours last week
about stoves from two to five dollars.
1t should have read that our prices are
from 50 to IS lower than other dealers
for the ST. me grade of stoves.
Jabe Souch: Have already bought
10000 bushels of wheat this season.
Elevator men have to pay good price
for wheat now if they want to get their
share. Saturday the list price was II
cents, but 70 was what it sold for on the
street.
State Attorney Dickson: Quite a
large calendar for the approaching term
of court. Only three criminal cases, but
long list of civil suits that will require
jury. Court meets on the 18th of
next month and will not close until
after Xmas.
Pastor Robertson: The time card Of
Baptist services will undergo a slight
change during the winter months. My
outside appointment at II a. M, will
alternate first at Elkwoo0 and tho next
Sunday at Rosa Lake. Evening service
will be held in this city as usual ut 1880
at the court house, until our new church
edifce is finished.
J.C. Berry, one of the best known
citizens of Spencer, Mo-, testifies that he
cured himself of the worse kind Of pilet
by using few boxes of DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve. He has been troubled
with piles for over thirty years and had
used many different kinds of so-called
cures; DeWltts WAS the one that did the
work and he will verify this statement if
and one wishes to write him. H. D.
Alert & Co.
Game Warden Meiklejohn: Hunters
permits are good to December 18th only
when the open season on buffalo, moose,
elk, deer, antelope, caribou or mountain
sheep closes, but the close season on
ducks, geese or brant, wild swan and
crane does not begin until May LIST, 1898.
The open season on chickens closed the
first of this month. Hunters who desire
to hunt geese next spring will be COM
PEELED to take out new license.
Peter Wild: You can buy the best
land they have on the Manitoba side,
across the line from Hannah for
$3.50 per acre, OF course it's unimproved.
but can't help thinking what hand
some profit can be realized on it when
cultivated the way we do over hero. No,
I've no notion of making change, unless
1 could dispose of my two and a half
section farm ut $4,000 per quarter, but 1
would like to show our CannucA cousins
how it looks to break up big patch of
their prairie and transform it into a
Klondike.
