The postmaster of the local office
recently received letter from DR.. G.
G. Davis, of Fairfax, Virginia, who
will be remembered by many of our
older readers as Miss Carrie Chase
Davis. She and her sister, May Davis,
were teachers in this county twenty
to twenty-five years ago, the latter
becoming the wife of A. B. Baker,
who was superintendent of our coun-
ty schools, in 1887 to $780, inclusive.
Miss Carrie Davis proved up on a
homestead about ten miles northwest
of WaKeeney in 1898. She afterward
studied medicine and has been a
practicing physician for several years.
She is living in the country about
ten miles from Washington. The
soil there is so badly worn out that
it will not produce grain crops profit
ably. 1t needs building up and can
be most profitably employed in the
production of fruit and vegetables for
which there is ready and convenient
market. Farmers there buy con-
siderable quantities of corn and other
grain and the object of DIR. Davis
letter was to find dealer near the
point of production from whom to
buy in carload lots. We are sorry to
have to inform our inquirer that
western Kansas is not good place to
buy grain at this time but hope that
it may be different within twelve
month.

community. Miss Cloud came to
Wa-Keeney from Quenemo, Kansas,
about six years ago, and her long as
ISOLATION with the postoffice made
her many friends throughout this
county. She is young lady of most
sterling qualities and christian char
acter and during her stay here has
won the esteem and respect of all.

upon his choice of so excellent a
young woman for his wife. Mr. Cy-
