Archie Mcclellan has all his teams and
a full crew Of men busy breaking while
theland is in such fine shape for turning
over.
/ Milton Dobie is one OF the farmers
through here who has wheat that will
be headed out on the Fourth of July.
He certainly has one OF the farthest adj
vanced crops in this section.
We have during the close OF this week
received report OF quite a severe hail
storm that visited the western part OF
GleniIa township on Friday. The path
OF the storm only covered narrow
strip, but the hail that fell is understood
to have been the largest ever seen out
there.
R. D. Gage is making improvements
this summer, one OF the more noticeable
OF which consists OF the building OF quite
q large addition to his barn. The fine
home and surrounding buildings on the
Gage farm make one OF the most inter-
esting progressive pictures OF farm life
in this section.
William Moore is among those out this
way who are figuring on building a new
house this summer. He has started in
with stone foundation which is the
first step towards having things in the
right kind of shape. Mrs. Moore has re-
Gently returned from quito an extended
visit to her old home down in the Valley.
Dan AcKechnie is one OF the foremost
in the railroad movement that is being
made blythe farmers around here and
being on intimate acquaintance with
Jim Hill ought to work his graft to a
finish this trip. By the way, if we re-

The we'll fborers are hard at work in
this neighborhood yet. For the present
they are on the farm Of Emil Rankey.
Emil is thinking of putting up a new
barn this summer and Is finding out
where the water is first. II the crop
turns out half as good az it looks on his
farm at the present time he will have to
put up building as big as a barn to
hold all the money he makes this fall.
Out in Glenila the farmers have held q
mass meeting and elected delegates to
send down to st. Paul to urge the Great
Northern railroad to extend it's proposed
line from Lakota into this county. 1t
is supposed they make the trip to pre-.
sent their petition to Jim Hill next
week. There are others besides the
residents Of Glenila who will await with
expectancy the outcome of their visit.
If the crops come on at the rate at
which they are growing now it will be
much worse needed than ever. The trip
to Hannah and the attitude OF arrogance
on the part of the Hannah wheat buy.
ers is something that the people are fast
getting tired OF.
Social events have been plenty in this
neighborhood since the summer opened

swell ice cream social at the Daniele
