grain looked a good deal better than
that. From Crooked creek in he said
that the crops appeared very fair.
Frank Neuman. with Roquette Bros.
for the past two years, expects to leave

!. Mr.. and Mrs. A. ii. Arnett and
family had a narrow escape at Spring
creek last week. They started 10 cross
the stream on a newly made dam which
proved too soft and their auto rolled
over onto its side. throwing six of the
seven occupants into about five feet Of
water. Mr.. Arnett managed to get his
wife and children out of the water but
it was a close call and had the ma
chine turned clear over they would all
have been drowned without doubt w.
L. Richards and E. A. Lillibridge
helped to get the big Buick out of the
mud a day or two later and the family
returned to the city zone the worse for
their experience. The dam had been
used for loaded teams and so far as Mr..
Arnett could see it was safe enough for
his heavy auto.
