through and found pretty poor roads.
Geo. Bradford has rented the place
that Mr.. Derby bought Of Knute
Anderson and will move on to it as soon
as the weather will permit.
Mr.. Ziebert did an excellent Job on
the snow banked road leading by his

flee, and preparing to build new barn,

the road, this year. They have wind
mills plenty. Richard Ziebert is the
newly-elected pathmaster.
Mr.. Schlesner lost three-year-old
steer few days ago in rather a pecu-
liar manner. The steer crawled into a
straw stack so far he could not get out.
1t was three days before he was found.
Yes, autos would do first rate. We
would just smile to see some of our
high hated town brothers out here
stuck in the mud with their automo-
bile. Won't you come out and play in
the mud?-[Yes if we can borrow DR..
Armitage's auto, we will-ED.]

The roads are in very bad shape and
the farmers who are obliged to haul
their produce to market this spring
take very small loads
Alexander Groescer of St. Paul was
visiting with his old friend, Gus
Manke last Thursday. This was the
first time they had met for eight years.
1t is rumored that there will be a
wedding solemnized in Germany in the

speculation as to who the contracting
parties are.
