FELTON,.

The school elections were fairly well at

bring about better property, which is the re.
suit Of the criticisms made by the County
| School Commission last spring after visiting
the schools. Walter J. Harrington, John Case
and Charles W. Cook were elected commits

Wednesday evening and elected the following
teachers: Prof Howard Evans. of Harring-

grammar department.; Miss Margaret Goodwin,
OF FELTON,, intermediate department. Miss
Maud Angstadt, Of FELTON,, primary depart

The drowning OF two horses last week in the
pond at Killen's Mil was an accident which
might happen to any boy without experience.
one was owned by Edward Harris and the
other BY Spencer Perry. They were in charge
OF boy about Is or Il years OF age He had
two barrels in the wagon TO fill with water to
moisten ground for setting out plants He
backed the wagon into the pond and IA doing
so one OF the barrels rolled out. He drove
out too far the horses getting into water ten
feet deep. and being to a wagon they could
not swim. They were good horses the one
that belonged to Harris was a nice hve.year-
old hOr e. The owner would not have taken
less than SIPS for him. The loss is heavy on
both owners.
At the south side OF FELTON, is a tract Ofland
owned by Amos Turner which has been
brought to produce large crops Of all kiRds OF
fruits and vegetables. This year he planted a
tract in radishes, which gave lots OF employ
ment to the women and children, and mU
have made satisfactory returns to him. This ,
land few years ago was simply a wooded
"branch" and absolutely worthless as a farm
product producer but under the proper thing
