We are informed tliat a car of grain

was able to return borne on Saturday
and will be able to attend to business

A number of our friends have ex
pressed their intention to bring us some
wood on subscription. We would sug
gest that it would be a good thing to
bring it in the near future, as winter will
soon be past and then we will not need it
so badly, and also our friends will be
busy so that they cannot find time to at
tend to it as easily as now.
The "hard times" ball on last Mon
day evening was largely attended and a

of excellent representations of hard times

The Bank of Harrison has recently
put in a new punch for marking draft.
It is of the latest pattern and Axes a
draft so that it would be hard to alter.
The content on what i known a the
Cook claim northeast of town has been
settled by C. R Wells purchasing C. B.
Verity's interest in that" tract Mr.
Wells has also secured the claim occu
pied by H. MerriSeld, which gives him a
half section of land near town. It will
not be long until this will become a val
uable piece of property and will prove
an excellent investment
T. O. Williams ha completed a well
for Wm. E. Moore and is now engaged
in putting one down for A. E. Ramsey.
The well makers are kept busy and
many farms are being improved by se
curing a water supply. Wind mills will
be the next in order. When a wind mill
is to be seen on every quarter section of
land the appearance of the country will
be vastly improved.
Tlie boys are preparing to give a
minstrel entertainment on the evening of
April Sd. There is plenty of talent her
and an evening of fun may be expected.
At the close of the performance a danoa
will occur, and thus all will have an op-j
portunity to enjoy themselves. The
orchestra is practicing some fine muraoj
for the occasion, which will add greatly
to the pleasue of tlie evening. N'NM
should fail to attend. For particular
see programs.
It is reported that work on th oill
wells in Wyoming will be resumed iY
the near future and pushed vigorously
until the fact is established that that
portion of the country is to be a valu
ble one or not. A good deal of moaeyi
has been spent in test wells, but none?
have been sunk deep enough to prove,
what they are really worth. We hop
the prospectors will be rewarded by
striking it rich. Nothing would be mora
beneficial to this section of the country
than the development of the coal '
and mining regions of the territory t.
of us. ;
Tlie only school in Sioux county tC
will have an exhibit at the state 1r'
ers association is that of MootMt I

it in snape ami inose wno saw it wjr
that it is deserving of credit This a
starter in that line and it is to be hoped
that other teachers of the county will
follow the example and have a showing
prepared for the meeting of the associa
tion next year. The children of Sioux
county are just as intelligent as those of
any other locality, and all that is neces
sary is a little encouragement and direc
tion on the part of the teachers.
Tlie question of roads as mentioned
in the last issue of The Journal has
caused a number of farmers to investi
gate the location of roads. It is found
that some that were supposed to be laid
out county roads are not laid out at all,
and the result is that farmers in various
neighborhoods are getting up petitions
for consent roads so as to get the matter
in shape and get the roads laid out for
the benefit of themselves as well as
well as others. A good road along a
farm will be a benefit greater than the
value of the land occupied by the road.
The Journal would urge that care be
exercised by the farmers in getting roads
located so that they lead to somi point
connecting with another road so that
stub roads can be avoided. If the favor
able action in the matter of roads is con
tinued it will not be long until enough
county roads will be laid out to accom
modate the greater part of the people
and after the main roods are established
they can easily be supplemented where
necessaay at a very little cost Good
roads help to build up a country and
thus is every property owner benefitted
thereby.
The is some complaint being made
about stock being allowed to run at
large. On account of the scarcity of
feedstock of all kinds have been per
mitted to wander at their own sweet
will and no objections have been made,
but us spring approaches and the farm
. . t , 1 t I - J
ers begin to get their land ready and
grain put into the ground they do not
like to have cattle tramping paths across
it nor getting at the grain they have
taken to the field to sow, and as a result
they begin to express the wish that
stock owners take care of their animals.
The crops of Sioux county are too val
uable and of too much importance to the
present and future of tb county to per
mit of their being destroyed by stuck.
I'll farmers need all Uiey can raise, and
a U statute provides that stock shall
ba kept olf the crop, the people should
begin to take care of their stock and then
tiier will be no occasion for any diffi
culty, The people have' been very le
niut during the (all and winter by al
lowing their neighbor stock to run at
large and in many cases aonciy them,
ami now that the wnmkmi of the year h
