Beaver" Jone. Dead

Word came to town Thursday that
Owen R. Jones, commonly known ~
"Beaver Jones," had died at the
home Of Mrs. Margaret Jones, on the
south side Of the river, in Powell
park.
Deceased had lived A. . recluse on
bis fine farm In the Park for period
Of thirty-five years. He was an &C.
centric character. He never farmed
his place, but had leased it out to
different people, and not only lived
on the revenue, but had money to
send to relative In Wales. He came
to this state forty-five years ago.
Originally . tall, powerful man, his
way Of living had undermined .
strong constitution, SO when taken
i'll lately, he did not last long. Some
weeks ago, Mrs. Margaret Jones, a
neighbOr. took him into her home,
and with her family cared for him
till the end. Mrs. Jones was in no
way related to the deceased. His
only known relative was . nephew In
Wales, who 10 married man with .
family, and serving the British ns-
ton as . soldier In France. This
nephew Tor his family will inherit .
farm probably worth $4,000.
Jones derived his title Of "Beaver
Jones" from the fact that many
years ago he attempted diverting .
branch Of the river from cutting
through his place by building q brush
dam across the stream, which was .
failure.
Deceased WAS buried In Highland
cemetery Thursday forenoon, many
old time Park people attending the
funeral He WAS In his seventy
third year when the end came.
Rev. Rose Of the Methodist church
conducted services at the grave.

plated this year, but to protect the
farmers from ovsr-production Of
given commodity, and to furnish In
formation which will be useful In
stabilizing market conditions. The
survey will also enable the govern
ment and state authorities to more
intelligently assist the farmers In,
getting labor and seed.
Among other things, the survey
will ascertain from every farmer
the amount of labor used last year,
needs for coming year; amount and
kind Of seed on hand, amount for sale,

q questionable for each farm in her
territory. These questionnaires go to
the County Superintendentof Schools
who summarizes them, places them
on file In his Office and sends the
summary TO the central state Office.
None but governments authorities
and those engaged In the survey will
have access to these records. There
will be no danger, therefore, Of inn
