 Last week a party from Wisconsin visited in this village and were looking over several farms i'll town with the view of purchasing one of them. It seems as if the party came a dis tance to purchase a farsn when there were probably many better ones nearer Wisconsin.
 On Wednesday afternoon of last week a meeting of the Pomona Grange was held in South Canaan with the Hollen- beck Grange of that village and the at tendance was very large. The usual program of speaking was carried out and all had a very pleasant time. Ar engagements wero made so that those who came on the train to attend were transferred to South Canaan by teams.
 Monday evening was the coldest of any night this winter and the fact was easily determined by those who travelled. The thermometer registered three de- grees above III this village and was one degree colder than 1t was ln Canaan. AS nobody was expecting that we should have such a cold snap so soon, fires were not burning i'll full force and when the people awoke in their homes Monday morning it gave the appearance of one of the coldest days of the winter as all of the windows ill the houses were pretty we'll covered with frost and it appeared to be about twenty below.
