Patrons and Friends

This is our last issue of the Independent in 1918 and We wish to extend our thanks to the good people of Carlisle and sur rounding country that have so liberally patronized us during the past year and hope we have so conducted the paper as to merit continuance of your pat ronage for the coming year. We have taken advantage of every opportunity to make the paper better with each issue as a news paper and an advertising medi- um for our people The past year has been a strenuous one for the newspapers as they have been continuously called upon by different departments of the gov ernment for space to such an ex- tent that the space devoted to maintaining them has been linn tied; also during a part of that period the War Industries board compelled the papers to cut down their size to great extent to save paper. Taking all these things into consideration it has been an uphill business for the county papers to pull through.
 The Independent is ever ready to fight fer the upbnilding of Car lisle and the surrounding terri tory, but it must have your sup. port to be able to do so. Every merchant and every farmer has something to advertise and they can find no better medium than their home paper in which to do it.
 A1eai eiiS iiCW w ., Odi WILL d ulCS advertisement of your business, and keep the space filled from week to week throughout the year, and you will find that it pays we'll for the amount invest ed. A well written advertise ment is appreciated by the read CTS of a paper almost if not as much as news item. We pre- dict good business year in 1919 for Carlisle and the Independent will always be found ready to boost any proposition for the betterment of our merchants and farmers.
 Get in line with an advertise ment of your business or any thing you want to buy or sell and you will find it will pay you well for the amount expended. Again thanking you for past ia vors and hoping to receive con- tiDuation of your patronage, we wish you prosperous and hap Dy New Year.

EATING FINE FARM
Farmer Near Yankton Forced
to Move His Buildings the
Second Time.

Vermiilion, s. d., Nov. Glowing TO
the antics of the treacherous Missouri
river, Julius Charrlin has been con-
PEELED for the second time within w
years tn remove all his farm buildings
to a safer place. The constant cutting
OF the river on the north bank has
taken away the best part Of Charrlin's
farm, and the place where his dwellings
stood two years & is now pretty well
over on the Nebraska side.
Persons who ave been studying he
antics OF the river at this point say it
is q matter OF but a few years until It
will eat it's way over TO the Vermllion
river n cut a new channel.
Near the Charrlin farm the river
makes an abrupt turn to the south with
the result hat the full force of the
current strikes this bank and gradually
eats its way in
Others farmers on the bottom in
close proximity to the Big MUDDY have
moved their buildings back to a safer
place, and what was nee thousands OF
acres OF fertile soil is now the Missouri
river.
