Correspondents take Notice.

Notice. To our correspondents and
subscribers in general, for the last 8 or
10 months we have been crowded for
space for our news, owing to numerous
correspondents from the different towns
of the middle west and the many new
towns that are clamoring to have space
in our paper, also the many worthy
papers, essays and poems often sent
for publication and with our limited
space each week, that we cannot &C.
comodate them all, in fact we have
often left out the editorials and race
echoes to accommodate our outside news
gathers; but many of our readers like
to have editorials to read each week,
therefore we have decided that we will
discontinue our regular correspondents
where we have less then ten actual
subscribers; news can be sent from
those points occasionally. We also ask
our correspondents to condense each
article and be brief with your letter.

the Canadian was dusty all the way
through. OF course, the river was
running I'll the time, but the water in
it got so dry that it turned to dust
and blew away. took boat down
the river at that time but it was so
dusty that | couldn see the hind end
of it when | stood in the front end. 1t
was a little the worst ever saw.
My mouth got so much grit and dust
in it that | could strike match on
the roof of it any time. One day the
boat got stuck in fifteen feet OF Cana
dian water. 1t was so dry and dusty
that the wheel wouldn't turn What
did we do? Well, sir, we went out
and hired a farmer to haul fresh well
water for fifteen miles to mix with
the river water until it was thin
enough to run the boat through to
