Missouri River Taking Land
The Missouri river, which has been

of good rich soil from Cass county.
Many of the old time residents are
apprehensive that the river will take
a considerable mere of the land than
has as yet been cut away. Nothing
seemingly can be done to prevent
this wasting away of the land at
this point.

This Saturday at the Modern
Woodman hall there will be a meet

they wiH meet for that purpose, and
will have something good to eat.
They will be entertained with a
short but worthy program. An op
portunity for the paying of the dues
for the coming year will thus be pro
vided as well. Come, get some good
eats and ice cream and have a good
time.

A good team will cost you as much, and you will have to feed them twelve
