snow out in the country north of town,
and there is still some good shedding
there; but in and near town, the ground
is bare and dusty.

motor car went off the rails and they
had to wait for locomotive to take its

Mr. j. L. Beckett, manager of the
Stockgrowers' Store, of Shoshone was
a Richfeld visitor Wednesday. He was
here at the opening of the Alberta

disappointed. Announcement was made

time for such an address before the
