different appearance to the parched

prepare the ground, for those who
did not have their corn planted.

home burned last week. will erect
a new house at the same location.
Scarcely anything was saved from
building which burned. The family
was sleeping in bedroom in the OPP
posite part of the building from the
kitchen, where the fire originated,
and they were awakened when the
roof of the kitchen fell in. The fire
burned all their clothing, except
their night clothes, in which they
were sleeping. Quite a large number
of people were attracted to the scene
of the fire.
