Mark Howe and ]. A. Bradbury
we're in the city Tuesday from
Grangeville enroute to see the big
steel bridge at Lawyers canyon.
While here they took side trip to
Mr.. Bradbury's farm south of
Keuterville. They report the grain
crops out on the prairie as looking
fine and giving excellent indica-
tons of a banner harvest.
The Stockcreek ball team went
to Greencreek Sunday afternoon
and played two games Of ball. In
the first game the Greencreek
young men won out by score of
II to 10. In the second game with
the married men the Stockcreek
nine proved the victors by a score
Of II to 6. Both games were hotly
contested and provoked consider
able enthusiasm.
L. A. Bruner last week purchas-
ed the former Oscar Rhoades house
from H. Terhaar northeast of town
and moved it to the farm he pur-
chased last spring from Frank
Carey. The house was loaded on
four wagons and Burley Clayton,
of Denver, hauled it to the new
location with his traction engine
in less than a day and did not have
the least trouble in making the trip
with it. The house is 14x26 feet
in size and two stories high.
Joseph Arnzen, of Greencreek,
last week ordered from John Hoene
new Advance thresher with all
attachments and a 22-horse power
Hart, Paar traction gasoline engine
with which to operate the thresher.
The outfit will reach Vollmer in
couple of weeks and will cost
Mr.. Arnzen about IS, 800 all told.
Threshing machines operated with
gasoline power are becoming quite
popular among the farmers and Mr..
Arnzen'S machine will no doubt
pay for itself in a few years on
threshing bills sayed, besides being
money making investment for
many years to come.
A merry party of between forty
and fifty members of the local
Methodist church and Sunday
school packed their lunch baskets
with all kinds of good things Tues
day morning and went out to
Lawyers canyon near the big steel
bridge to enjoy picnic. Five
hacks, one buggy and a 4-horSe
wagon were pressed into service to
convey them to the picnic grounds.
After reaching the canyon the day
was spent with feasting and the
usual picnic amusements and the
party returned to town late that
evening, getting nicely dampened
by the thunder storm while coming
home.
Jim Rookie stole march on his
friends last Friday and, in company
with Miss Bessie Reed, went to
Grangeville where they secured a
license and were united in marriage
by Rev. w. N. Knox, the cere-
mony taking place at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Telcher.
They returned home Saturday
evening. Both of the contr acting
parties are we'll known. young
people of this vicinity and have
many friends who wish them all
kinds of married felicity. They
will reside on the groom's home
stead across Salmon river. The
CHRONICLE extends sincere congra-
tulations.
