Messrs. Leon Tracy, VIM. Toms, A.
A. Carnes and Rogers were hauling
lumber from Kampeska the first of
this week. The lumber is for Lees
new barn to be built this year. Also,
Mr.. Oquist and Tracy unloaded the
material for their silos. MIR. Rice plans
"a silo IA feet in diameter and 80 feet
in height; Mr.. Tracy's the same height

durable and considerable better to
resist the cold weather.
