WITH COUNTY RECORDER.

During the past year, there were
total of 1864 instruments of all kinds
fled with the county clerk and record
er for recording. OF this numbek $50
were warranty deeds and tell of land
sales that brought amounts from a,
few dollars for town lots to thousands
of dollars for ranches in different Sec
tions of the county. Some of these are
for the same piece of land or for the
same town property and show that diff.
ferent hands have owned the prop1rty,
but with each succeeding sale, pro
Gt was made and this proves as moth
ing else can, the steady climb up the
ladder Of this county peg.
Large ranches have changed hands
smaller tracts of few acres and tlus
sold to a number of people, who hre
seeking. homes in the west. The new
home makers are sure Of good lsv.
ing and many Of them are laying aside
goodly share of this worlds goodA.
Articles of Incorporation were hled
to the number Of IL. These include
merehantile companies, irrigation prp-
moters and railroad projects, and sIc
but another indication Of the trend Of
the times in Garfield County. One Of
the largest of the companies to fle
papers was the White River Railroad
Company, which was announced some

Of them think they can put the min

The editor is often called upon to
decide points Of law; is expected to
publish remedies for cramps, mumps,
etc; when the most prominent citi-
zen passes away he's expected to
preach the funeral through his news

preacher are paid for their services,
