MORE SETTLERS
FOR LINCOLN COUNTY

We look for the biggest in
flux of new settlers in this
county this spring that the
county has ever known. Our
reason for this belief, is due
to the fact that we are receiving
more inquiries from the East
for literature concerning the
county, ." lrn also receiving
many srhscr. ms from East
ern states.
We have rhas cheap land, un-
developed resources and oppor-
tunities are here for the man

G. n. COMES TO STAY

Mr.. Ground Hog stuck his
head out Of his burrow this
morning,as is his custom on the
I'd of February, and found that
there was no shadow to frigh-
ten him. In fact he ran into a
real, old fashioned Chinook that
will take all the snow out of the
mountains, and make the noun
tain streams into boiling, yellow
torrents. AS Mr.. Ground Hog
was not frightened by his shad-
ow he is here to stay, and our
winter weather is a thing of the
past. At least that is what they
