Peter Undergrad, a prosperous
farmer near Belfeld, came down
Wednesday with election returns.
MI. Undergrad stated that the roads
were quite bad on account of the
rain and snow the day before. 1t was
his opinion that many farmers would
have begun their spring work in the
fields this week, had the disagreeable
weather not set in.
Pete Peterson, who for seven years
has resided on a homestead neal
Daglum, returned from the east the
middle of the week after a two
weeks %sojourn. He was accompanied
back by his young wife, the couple
having been married only a short
time before. They left the same day
for South Heart, where they expected
to take the stage out for home.
Mrs. B. E. Kennedy expects to
leave the hospital after her operation
some three weeks ago, this coming
Sunday and leave the next day, in
company with her husband, for
Jamestown to visit with her parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. D. S. Littlehales, until
she is fully recovered. Mrs. F. M.
DuBoice will continue to have charge
of the Kennedy household, the same
as in the past three weeks, until
Mrs. Kennelly's return.
John Fisher stated Thursday that
he was feeding his cattle, a mixed
herd of about 100, alfalfa twice a
day and that he never saw stock
| doing better at this season of the
year. He hauls out a load of straw
every few days on which the cattle
bed down at night, they seeming to
prefer the open air to the sheds.
Tom Fisher drove his cattle from his
winter quarters on Green river to
his Indian Spring place last week.
J. P. Lebo, of a short distance
from the old logging camp near
Ranger, was in the city the middle
of the week, coming in as far as New
England by car, where it had to be
left on account of the bad roads and
making the rest of the journey by
stage. Mr.. Lebo reports the loss of
stock in his community as being a
little more than normal the past
winter but any place is likely to
have an off year once in a while.
Ranchers in general, however, report
only a slight loss.

pected to arrive from Minneapolis on

close to his own residence for the

large yard affords room for a fine
garden, which will delight the new
corners.
