was drowned last Sunday In some IN
accountable manner the wheel became
loosened and struck Tracy, knocking him

The following clipping, taken from the

o the country tributary to Silver City:
The hoped for spring is here. We can
zee it everywhere. The roads tell it
trongly and while they are not yet what
hey will be in way to make it disagree
lble travelling, yet they have the signs Of
pring The snow is nearly gone and
water stands in the highways in consider
lble quantities. The frost has not vet
eft the ground so that there is vet no
mud, but we all expect mud There is
10 country without mud and we are all
.nXious for the mud to come and 90 and
hen things will be ideal again. But on
he farm there is the most important !
'lace to us all We can stand the muddy |
Dads and other things which we claim
re not to our liking, when the farm be-
ins to take on the spring dress. Where
he snow has disappeared we see the fall
wheat peeping through the ground, the
rass starts up and as fast as the snow
lears the ground turns to green. This is
lot only spring but prosperity What it
i means to us we know. To see the
'heat spring up at the first chance, the
rass again start forth with new vigor,
! what we have wanted to see and it is
ere. Our section is exceedingly FORUM
te in their winter wheat, as we had
lenty of snow to prevent any danger
rom frost and now that it is going we
ae hope budding.
