From The Greeley County Republican.
The many Greeley county citizens
now living in and near Holly, Colora-
do are fairly prosperous, better SO,
perhaps, than If they had stayed here.
All who are farming are under the
ditch except AL. Thomas and Mike
Conley. But while water is very
necessary adjunct to successful farm
ing there are still many disadvantages
where water Is abundant, as many OF
them realize to their sorrow this sum-
mer.
$. Harden s. Son are running q
good grocery business and have been
eniarging their stock from what 1T
was in Tribune. j. B. is one of the
leaders In musical circles aud of course
is in the band and orchestra. He
will have something to do with the
canning factory when it starts up
this month.
S. ,. White has fine stock of
goods in his general store, and as
would be expected, is keeping his
competitors busy meeting his prices
and trying to hold their trade. Olof
Engstrom is clerking for him, and
the two sell lots of goods in day.
Henry Milford is editor of the Chief
tain, justice of the peace and manager
Of the Postal Telegraph company in
Holly, besides running ten acre farm
on the side. All these things keep
him about the busiest man In Holly,
but he is accumulating something to
show for his work. His truck Patch
WAS completely destroyed by the big
food on June 22nd.
His neighbors say that C. II. Adams
has the nearest to einch Of any man
in Holly. He has good hardware
store, the only one in Holly, and with
his accommodation and good work he
draws from many miles up the river.
T. d. Newman Is working in the
Salvation Army Colony for a man tsN
the same Eame but no relation. Doss
says it is = good place to work and as
the pretticst girl in the colony is d
member of the family OF course be is
in his glory.
Walter Padlev has had the worst
luck of anyone th.re this summer.
He has ten acres under the ditch, and
had it all planted in the most remu-
nerative crops. But the big hailstorm
and food Of June 22nd almost COM
pletely destroyed everything he had
planted. No tomatoes, hut few onions,
no cabbage and but little of anything
else. But Mrs. Padley likes TO live
there and Walter and the boys have
gone to work with determination to
make it succeed anyway. They have
two acres of celery which they expect
to help them out very materially.
NJ S., r. A. and John Bragg are
giving much OF their attention to
their cattle. although they have good
prospects for crops this year.
Nels Thompson is a few miles mort r
east OF Holly under the Amity ain
has 20 acres Of very fine corn.

LOUSE-INFESTED HUGS.
How Western Farmer Made Good
Use of the Example Set by
Suffering Creature.

Very frequently some one asks how
to get ride of the hog louise. Three years
ago breeder of Poland-Chinas brought
two sows to breed to Mahaska Chief
190S1, my herd boar at that time. These
sows were populated with hog lice,
those mammoth thoroughbred fellows,
and as they seemed to be of an explor-
ing nature some got on Mahaska Chief
and failed to get back. When | discov-
cred them they had claims staked all
over him and were getting thickly set
tied back of his ears, fore legs and
above the hook. They did not stop at
that, but multiplied and spread out I'M
til they were aboard every hog on the
place. Then 1 was like the other fell
low that's got 'em and wants to get rid
of them. For two years looked in vain
for a remedy. 1 tried kerosene emul-
sion, insect powder, carboGc acid and
other remedies without satisfactory re-
suits.
About a year ago I was in the hog
house one day with coal oil can when

struck me. Why not put the coal oil
on the post and let the hog grease him.
self? put the idea into practice, went
and got some stout cloth. hammer and

different places in the hog house, where
they usually rubbed, saturated the
cloth thoroughly with oil and fastened
the hogs out of the house until evening,
when 1 carried in fresh bedding and
plenty of ii. 1 then took the oil can
again and went over it, sprinkling the

door to let the hogs in, closed it again

The Blind Goddess.

Intensely modern is the new murder story
by Randall Irving Tyler, entitled THE
Blind Goddess" There is, it seems, evolu-
ton in murder stories as well as in every
thing else.
Those who read Tylers -Four Months
After Date" and said the book was clever
though perhaps weighted down with bust
ness transactions, viii find IN '.rhe Blind
Goddess" just issued, a novel drawn in a
new vein, but full of dramatic cimaxes.
To bring home the thoughts it contains to
many who never read murder stories, in
cidents are used familiar to all who have
followed the recent poison cases.
The prosecuting officers theory of the
crime, the appalling accusation of the in
nocent daughter of one of the murdered
men, the web of circumstantial evidence
around and against man of unblemlshed
character, who Is also accused, the defense
less position both of these people occupy
before the coroner, the subsequent indict-
ment without hearing before magistrate
all these things make the reader think.
The underlying motive for the crime IN
PRODUCES a diversion IN the person of an ad-
ventures, for whose presence no apology is
offered, as 1t turns out that she is the real
lprit.
The occasional glimpses of an exclusive
social circle, the charming heroine Helen
Brownell, the strong willed but intensely
human Sanford Crane, offer opportunities
for Mr.. Tyler's ability IN character sketch
ing which he has not neglected; even the
adventures challenges admiration at times
by the boldness and GOODNESS of her method.
The title, as will be readily understood
applies to the more serious side OF the novel;
which has to do with prosecution for cap
ital crime; but the well-handled romance
running through it all and the satisfactory
denouement make THE Blind Goddess a
marvelously entertaining book, running over
with surprises IN its movement and its lit
erary style. 1t is more than absorbing; it is
