John DeWerff was in from the
Gouth side Tuesday and said that he
intended to start cutting wheat the
1ext day. A part of his crop this
year is extra fine; some of it is pref.
y poor, but he says the average will
be tair.
Richard Wagner, Of northeast OF
town, returned from Wichita Tues
day evening after being an inmate Of
the st. Francis hospital at that place
for the past nine weeks, suffering
from a complication Of diseases. Mr.
Wagner says he is feeling much bet
ter than for a long time, but right
COW he doesn't feel that he would
make a very husky hand in the har-
vest field.
Mr.. and Mrs. Win Weights and
daughter, Miss Vera, came in from
Alamena, Calf, Sunday morning,
for a visit of a few weeks with Mrs.
Weights mother, Mrs. George Har-
bolt, and sister, Mrs. Pete Smith
The Weights were former residents
Of this community but have not been
here for some time, and note many
changes and improvements in the
city since their last visit.
Lynn DeGarmo took a short lay-Oft
from his arduOuS duties as mayor of
Dartmouth Monday morning, long
enough to come down and look
after some business matters. Lynn
Is buyer for the Wolf mill at that
point and has been pretty busy get
ting the elevator fixed up in shape to
handle this years crop. He says that
the crop is pretty spotted out that
way, some of the fields looking like
they would make first class yield
and others will hardly pay the en-
pense Of cutting.
John Dick is about the first man
in this community to start turning
ever the ground for wheat sowing
this fall. John finished cutting the
wheat en- his eighty east of town last
week, and as his crop out northwest
Ct town would not do to cut for
several days, he immediately started
u couple Of gang plows in On the
eighty and has it about all turned I'm
DEF. Getting an early start like that
with the fall blowing is a mighty big
advantage in favor of raising a coed
crop the next season.
There was a very interesting ball
game at Ed Koch's, north of town
hast Sunday between the West Side
boys and the BllinwOOd High School
which resulted in a victory for the
latter with score Of 8 to 1. The
EllinwOod boys were assisted by the
umpire, who was advised and in
structed by sm able attorney. The
feature of the game was the Juggling
catch made by the Ellinwo0d center
fielder. The roofing was of the high
est order, and would have made Nc
Graw sick with envy could he have
heard it. Batteries, EllmwOOd, CAT
