the fact that if farmers institute is
desired for Hurley the petition for the

things which will have to be looked af-
ter, and for which purpose q commit

At the present there is a scarcity Of
houses to rent in Hurley and people

difficulty in securing desirable houses
This would seem 10 indicate that Hue-
