BERT LONG BUYS THE
E. J, THAYER HOME

The fine residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Thayer was sold today to Bert Long
of the Enterprise Grocery store.
Mrs. Thayer says that she doesn't
know just how soon she and Mr..
Thayer can move to Hansford that
as yet it has been impossible to find
residence there.
Mr.. and Mrs. Long have one of the
best appointed homes in the city.
Just at this time the farmers are
worrying considerably as they are
bending every effort to gather the
the feed stuff for fear that they can
not gather it before the bad weather
which is threatened daily, spoils much
of the crop. Help is scarce, and
there is little hope that help can be
secured at an early date.

SHIPPING OLD BONES

Tom Costley, who has been buying
bones, old iron, copper and brass, is
making shipment of old bones to
Chicago this week. A carload will
convey about 15 tons of bones and
the car is being filled today. Mr..
Costley says there is a good demand
for the bones and he will find ready
market for them. During the last
few months he has picked up and
shipped $50 tons of scrap iron to the
eastern market. Says he has been
several months buying sufficient
bones to make car load shipment.

WHO WANTS TO HIRE
THE ENTIRE FAMIL Y

L. c. Christie, emergency demon
stration agent for this county lately
received letter from man in Mis-
souri,, who had heard of the scarcity
of farm labor at Liberal and wants
to know about the chances for his
family securing work; says he has a
family of five boys ranging from 8
to 26 years old and wants to find a
place for them including himself.
He is willing to come if the wages are
suitable and can find a place where
the tools, teams and feed may be
supplied. He would entertain a
proposition to rent farm, but would
rather be employed, using the entire
family. We imagine there could be
a tremendous amount of work with a
family like that. Should 'you need
that amount of labor in one army,
see Mr.. Christie.
