Spring work is about done with the
exception OF some flax and little late
barley. All early sown grain is doing
nicely.
Ed. Bakrud and Louis Brudahl were
numbered among those who took
in the dance at the Samuelson's farm
one evening last week.
II. c. Otteson and wife, accompanied
by Miss Josie johnson, took Sunday
dinner with Mr.. ana Miss Grumpy.
Postmaster McEwan and his wife were
away also that day on visit with the
Hoffman family.
Theo. H. Tlfersdol and Oden, the Sec

take in the dance at Samuelson's and
did their share to make things lively,
Oden proved himself to be quite a
musician with his cornet, which furnish
ed good music for the dancers.

crop on his claim himself. He has also
large farm down in the Valley which

the farmers OF this section SO much
depend.
The dance given by the Samuelson
brothers in their new house last week
was one OF the huge successes of this
locality. A largo number attended from

with the possible exception of a few
who were heard complaining about it
being too dry. An orchestra OF four or
five different instruments furnished the
best music that the people around here
have had the pleasure Of listening to fo1
quite long while. Ehis together with
the fact that the floor was in elegant
shape made it possible for even the tired.

partner in the merry dance. AS for the
girls they were SO carried away with
the delightful time that it is reported
they will gather again next Friday
evening for another round OF pleasure, Of
course. provided that the boys will lend
them helping hand.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Cover sandwiches that are not to be
served at once with damp napkin and
bowl
To clean kitchen table rub the
greasy stains with lemon juice, and
they will speedily disappear.
Whiting mixed with alcohol is excel
lent for cleaning silver and will give a
much more brilliant polish than if wa
ter is used
small fiat paint brush has value
IN cleaning the corners of the window
sash. Hot, sharp vinegar will clean
off paint spatters, and turpentine will
remove putty.
The small stiff vegetable brushes that
are SO convenient in cleaning potatoes,
etc, are useful in housekeeping time
for scrubbing the holdings and corners
of the woodwork.
Loosely twisted knitting silk is better
for darning wooden underwear than
WOOL which is apt to shrink. If the
threads of the darn are left loose, after
washing ii will have about the same
appearance as the original texture.
If articles of decidedly strong flavor
have been chopped in a wooden bowl.
sometimes washing will not be suffi-
cient to entirely remove taste and odor.
In that case fill the bowl with warm
borax water and let stand half an hour;
then rinse in cold water and put in the
sun.

VAN buren, COUNTY OFFICIALS LOSE BY
SCORE OF III TO >.

Business is SO lively in the Van Buren,
county offices that our officials don't
have much time 10 practice ball playing.
From the result of Wednesdays game at
Kalamazoo with the officials of that
county, it is evident that the Celeryites
especially Charley McGurrin and Judge
White) were in the pink of condition.
The Telegraph describes the game as
follows:
Talk about your old time ball games.
They were never in it for minute with
the fast one to-day between the Kalama-
zoo and Van Buren, county officials.
Twas a warm one from start to finish.
1.-THE two teams lined up for the final
struggle at l:45 this afternoon and both
sides had blood in their eye. Van Bur
en went to bat first and in less time
than it takes TO tell it, had sent the ball
high up and away out and the game was
on. Van Buren, did the same trick sew
eral times and at the end of the first in
ming had slid two men over the home
plate
kalamazoo went to bat and by a
SERIES Oh luuul STUNTS lieu luc sCOTe.
The longer they played the hotter it got
and at the end of the second inning
Kalamazoo was on top by a big margin
of five points, the score footing up to
9 to in favor of the home team.
Judge White, who held down the
second bag for Kalamazoo, was easily the
favorite. He was right in the game every
minute. During the fourth inning
Catcher Hill slid a couple of hot ones
down to him and each time had caught
his man by a mile.
"The costumes were stunning and of
all shades and descriptions.
Deputy Sheriff Shean and Court
Commissioner John Hollander were kept
busy carrying hot lemonade and tanning
the Kalamazoo boys over the home plate.
THE Hill brothers were in the box for
Kalamazoo and the Van Buren, boys said
twas put up game to have two of a
family for the battery
The score was IL to in favor of Kal-
amazoo."
a return game is expected to be played
in Paw Paw in the near future.
