A. D. Millctt, our assessor, is deep
in the mazes of the new revenue law

has been in force long enough for n

giving decisions to guide the assessing
officers.

felt by the proprietors and they now
seem determined by the hiring of ad
ditional help, the installing of modern
machinery, to handle all the woik that
comes here. It should be pleasing to
both the town and country people to
see these further evidence that the
town is going ahead. The fact that
we have added a creamery, bank, po
tato storage warehouses and a modern
blacksmith and wood working shop to
our enterprises since the county seat

Miss Josephine Peterson was astonished
to discover a strange and curious little
animating bunch of bananas suspended
in the window of her brother, A. R. Peter
son's fruit store last Thursday. It proved to
be a kangaroo rat about the size of a com
mon rat and the color of a bat. It had a
litter of six young ones that constantly cling
to the mother after the manner of all mar
supials. They are about the size of half
grown mice. A nest of dry leaves had been
cozily constructed in the middle of the
bunch of bananas, in which they had safe
ly emigrated from their native clime in the
far off soutli land. They are pretty little
creatures and it is interesting to watch them
clamber about the bird cage in winch Mr.
Peterson keeps them, using their feet,
which resemble minute hands, and their
long,- slender, prehensile tails. Wisner
