week from Carroll visiting at the old

Mr.. l. v. d. Lewis drove into town
Tuesday to do some trading and from
here he drove to Extra to cast his
vote. He informed us that he is in
better health, does more work and
gets about with more ease than for
the last four years which might lead

Miss Puma Freeman, the young
yet efficient teacher in the Brayton
school, attended the State Teachers
meeting in the Capital City and OBJ
tanned much valuable information
which Is stored up in memory tor fu-
ture use in her school work and be-
sides this she had the extreme salts
faction of both beholdlng and hear
ing the noted Theodore Roosevelt

lege granted to but few of the teach
ers of the land
We had the pleasure of ride Tues
day evening in DR.. Koob's auto from
this town to Extra. We didn't coun,
'em but we think we took just five
long deep inhalations of ozone from
the time we lett here until we arriv-
ed at our destination. The doctor
kindly advised us that he would give
US ride some day when he would
speed up alittle. Gee Williker Whew,
doctor, do you intend to make her fly ?
Why we only touched the high plac-
es in that first ride as it was.
DR.. w. r. Koch and son Roscoe,
Harry Miller aud Ingved Birk, all
loaded with guns and ammunition went
to Lake View, Ia. last Thursday in
the doctors auto with the purpose
in view of bagging lot OF the fea
thered tribe, but at that time the
ducks and geese were still, in the
northern lakes, and they had to give
/
the fishing grounds at the lake which
is under the supervision of Fish
u Commissioner Charley Spencer for
merly of Extra, and there they saw a
sight they will never torget-the
fishermen drawing in their net mile
long aud the ends fastened at the
shore the middle being drawn in by
means of windlasses. When the
catch was landed they had thousands
of pounds of the finny tribe many
three feet long The carp and buff.
falo we're given away, the Others
were thrown back into the water to
propagate their kind. Fhe buffalo
and carp are deadly enemies of the
other denizens of the water and thu
object is to exterminate them as they
eat both fish and spawn and the seine
was used as the most effective ant
quicker plan to get rid of them.
Charley sent his father, Geo. r
Spencer of near Hamlin fifteen lib
Buffalo, Perry Hanson another biz
one to his brother and sister in Ext
ra, and the doctor presented his OLE
friend Mrs. Noon of Extra another
and the whole party brot home Sat
urday enough of the two kinds t,
start fish monger shop all withou
money and without price.
