Hopes First Public Park

The gravel walks in the little
park at the west end of Steele
avenue have at last been put in.
and the tiny resting place may
now be said to be completed.
While the grass seed sown has
come up in a sort of here-and
there manner, it will doubtless
spread and eventually cover the
ground with a beautiful green
mantle. A quantity Of posies
and bushes recently set out add
to the appearance of the plot.
Hopes first park is a diminutive
affair, but it is a beginning, and
who knows TO what great things
it may lead? Eventually the un.
slightly dump hole adjoining it
Immediately on the north may be
acquired, filed up and beautitied.
This would be a valuable addi
ton, and would furnish room for
a couple walking abreast to turn
without backing up. We trust
that this civic identifying streak
of enthusiasm will not abate until
it has forced property owners
along the right-of-way the whole
length of the city to clean up,
and keep clean, that part of their
holdings exposed to the gaze of
strangers passing through the
city on trains. They are a bad
advertisement for what otherwise
is one of the prettiest little cities
in the state.

Just A Case of Onions.

L Mayor II. M. Major is about
the most disappointed gardner
in this bailiWick. In good time
this spring he sowed six humid
red-or sixty, we forget which,
rows of onions across a quarter.
section of particularly rich soil
which he had secured for the
purpose, and every last seed
sprouted, peeped out Of tn e
ground, and gave promise Of an
abundant yield; enough for not
only his own family use, but per-
haps a peck or half bushel here
and there to worthy neighbors
and the preachers. They were
a specially fine variety Of onions,
a cross between the sweet Ber-
4muda and the hardy Klondike;
a gentle, inoffensive, odorless on
ion such as any lady or gentle
man could wear at a public func-
ton without fear of an after
boycott or other disastrous re-
suits. But alas! while MAJ pro
poses, it appears that in the case
of onions at least, excessive
moisture and quick growing
grass and weeds, disposes. At
least it was SO with the major
part of the Major onions. A week
ago Tommy and his good wife
arranged to attend the Odd Eel
lows Grand Lodge down-state,
and before leaving they went out
for a parting slant at their onion
plantation. And they were all
there-the darling onions!-and
his honor asserts that he never
saw such a luxuriant growth OF
observation-disclosures in his whole
life. But what a difference a
weeks time will make in onions!
On his return from the lodge
last Friday his first thought was
of his onions. And were they
there? Had a weeks time ma
tured them sufficiently for table
use? Could enough be found to
smother the toughness ola guar.
rter-pound of beef? Well, not to
any appreciate extent; in fact
not an onion vas to be seen; but
in their stead was a waving field
of pigeon grass a foot Highland
still growing. We extend sym.
thy to our neighbor in this his
time of great disappointment.
and hope that it may not initiate
against his chance of becoming
Steele county's sheriff next No.
