 George Shahan, son of Tom Shahan residing out on Yocum came in from Colorado Saturday and will remain here indefinitely. He has not yet recovered a horse, a report of which accident we published three or four weeks ago. Dr. MorroW's horse got scared at an auto last Friday and made high-grade of kindling out of his buggy. The doc tor was enroute to see a patient and he i proceeded to his appointment while the l horse laid down a blue streak in an- other direction. The doctor is so ac- customed to runaways that he never i lets a little thing like that bother him. i While here last week Col. Iverson Jones gave us few pointers about grass growing and pear raising. The i Colonel declares that pears will pay better in this country than apples and i that growing grass for pasture is the easiest and most profitable manner of farming provided it is done right. l During last season, he pastured 115 head of steers from April to Decem- l Der putting on an average growth or weight of 368 pounds per head. He took care of these steers for one-half the increase, which proftted him a little more than $6 per head.
 Mrs. James Pryor returned Thursday noon of last week from Homestead, 1 Okla, where she had been called on 1 account of the illness that resulted in the death of her only daughter Mrs. ! Hettie Martin. The grief-stricken mother says her gratitude to the good people of the neighborhood in which her daughter resided can never be ex- pressed. Every thing was done for the departed one that loving hands could do, showing that Hettie was held in the highest esteem by those who knew her so well. Such comfort as this is certainly great when there is so little to comfort devoted motheri in like cir cumstances.
 Allen Trimble, one of Osage's pro- gressive farmers, was in town Monday. He says that generally speaking he has never seen farms in his section in better condition. The dry weather has had retarding effect upon the growth of the wheat, but the stand is good and he believes favorable season will yet bring bumper crop. He says people get the blues too quick sometimes. Take this last spring, for instance. Some talked of blowing up fields of wheat that brought the best yield for years. What seems to be adverse con- ditions sometimes proves to be just the other way.
