H. H. Granger has sold his ranch
the old Wellington place, q few miles
south of town, to John Sawyer, a veal

The ranch is under the irrigation sys-
tenn. 1t contains $3.50 acres, with los

years few miles south of Davenport,
where he gradually accumulated many
fat acres, and from which he wrested
small fortune. He also owns consid-

knowing the vacancy is to be filled by
such a substitute as John Sawyer.

on the part of the board Of directors
of the hospital and the local physic-
ians Miss Burns at last consented to
resume the management, with her old
staff of assistants, after taking q va
cation which she and Miss Wright will
spend in California. 1t ID fortunate for
