TWO BUTTEs s-s-~

TWO bVIIkS o.o.N
School work was resumed in
Two Buttes last week.
Mrs. Metcalf was enabled to
commence Monday, Jan 8, but
owing to being snowbound Miss
Wheeler was unable to begin till
Wednesday. Th y enrolment at
present is about thirty, but it will
probably bs greater.
DR.. Verify Is spending a large
share of his time vaccinating al
present. He obtained vaccine
while in Denver. and believes
that this will help suppress the
flue. All the school children and
the teachers are being vaccinated.
Mr.. Harris sent vaccine from
Chicago for this purpose.
While Two Buttcs has not been
so unfortunate as Sprinxfield in
the matter Of health, at the same
time we have hai quite q number
of sick people. The following
have been on the sick list lately;
Mrs. E. G. Mitchell. Guy Mitchell
Hazel Matthews. Jesse Matthews,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Twenter, Mrs.
Smales, Pearl Allen, Alfred B.
Allen.
The latest report is that the
Lent Raymond milling company
has sold to Baca county dealers
forty tons Of -four during the
storm. hisamount15 tons went
to Springfield-some Of the flour,
has even gone 70 Oklarado and
that district. Besides the flour
about fifteen tons of bran and
shorts have been produced. 1t
is certainly q fortunate thing for
.;,ca county that she was able to
obtain flour, as otherwise there
might have been a serious food
shortage.
Bill Labounty has been seri-
ously Ill with flue, He was haul
ing freight for Wheeler and
Stanton, and was taken i'll on the
road. J.,
Two -Ruttes waa glad to vel
come Glen F1rney on his return
home from camp. where he has
been since the first of August.
The Bank of Baca County has
moved to its new edifice. The
building is of cement. finished in
light pebble dash with green
innings.
Two Buttes, like Springfield,
has been getting its mail once in
awhile, but we were all glad

packages for most of us.

The advisability of holding .

Capt. McCoach, Thos. Rambrie,
r. w. Whitaker were chosen for
the committee. World, Aug. 80,
1888.
The procession was the biggest
part of the fair at Boston that
year. Every business Of any
kind, and every trade WAS in the
line, in addition to 3 few hundred
wagons. buggies and other rigs
making displays of crops. The
procession was probably half .
mile long.
The towns Of Minneapolis and
Springfield both had fairs that
year-we presume making about
the same showing that Boston
did; and that was the last OF the
fair business until the county
fair was started in 1914.
