Everything imaginable ra there to be eaten, and eaten it mas with relish too. After dinner, Dr. Werner, Fred Taylor, County Agent Arthur Bartlett, C. A. Minick of Craw ford, Sam Hartley, Keith fierce and J. M. Tollman made respective speech In all their remarks the one thing was evident, potatoes ami their seeding, -planting and care.

He also spoke of the ex act way to care for the seed before planting, dipping, sorting ami cutting the care in planting, cultivation and care after the potatoes were in full growth. It is thought that next year there will still be better and more A No. 1 fields in this vicinity.

Hurt rurman received his threshing machine Thursday. see whether or not the sand was doing any injury to the pump. We should have it ready again, by tonight It may be necessary to pull these rods every few days until the sand quits coming in. We have the trenches on Missouri j and Yellowstone avenues from Eighth to Tenth streets rady to lay the 4-inch mains. The rains this morning may delay us somewhat in laying the pipe, j We are having considerable trouble finding the original survey stakes in this territory. We must know accur ately where the lot lines are in order to place the pipe in its pioper loca t;on. There is one-half block of ground including Mississippi avenue from Seventh to Tenth Ftreets which has nver been platted. The land sold in this location has been dscr.bed by muts and bounds. It will be nocesary to have this fixed up before we can complete the water mains in thi.s ter ritory and it may delay us somewhat without our work. So far we have not beene abl to get Helmont addition to check out as platted without encroach ing a litt'e upon Seventh and Tenth streets. Should wi be able to locate the original survey marks on Tenth .street it may check out. A great many people do not realize the importance of preserving these old survey stakes. The original stakes are worth consid erable more than new stakes will be and whenever an old stake is replaced with a new one there is always a question in the mind of tlu engineer as to whether it is correct. Whenever these original stakes are destroyed it makes a lot of extra work and ex pense for those who follow and have work on the stieets to do. sttaaattaaaaHnastattaaaaaattaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasjaaaaaaat i i "Don't be a wet blanket," advises the Cynical Pachelor, "unless you happen rhiiriov Mirhnel of Iteminirfoid was to be married and run into an old n Mars and Wednesday. name.
