All those interested in Evergreen cemetery, will take notice that there is to be a public meeting held up stairs in the court house, Saturday, June 2nd. at 2 o’clock p. m., for the purpose of taking steps to fence the cemetery grounds, and make other improvements and to attend to any other business that may come up. History of Cemetery. Since there has been much public conver sation and inquiry into the history and facts concerning this matter, it is the duty of the association to give the public all the knowledge and information in its possession. The Evergreen Cemetery Association was. organized May 3rd. 1885. with the following officers:- J. Phil Jaeger, W. A. Wilson. W. H. Lalk. J. D. Eord and Peter Truelsen. Tin* first act of the association was the purchase of ten acres of ground out of David French's farm, where it is now located, and for which they promised to pay $437 50. Then on Sept. 17th. 1885, they borrowed $497.57 with which to pay up the outstanding indebtedness. This debt has never been paid and still stands against the association, they having only been able to pay the interest on the debt to date. There is now $11 00 in the account of the association. There has been sold 1n the last two years, seven lots bringing $106.00. Since W. H. Lalk retired as secretary. J. Phil Jaeger served up to the time he left and Louis Hansen has been secretary since that time. These are the facts briefly stated and those desiring further information will call on Mr. L. Hansen, secretary. Now as long as the debt is on hand and the sale of the lots produce uo more than they have been doing for years, it is impossible, without the means, for the associa tion to improve and do such work as is neces sary on the grounds. The citizens should take hold of this matter and get this property clear of debt, when the money arising out of the lots sold can then be de voted to the improvement of the grounds. This is a matter the public should be much interested in. The officers of the association very much desire to be released of the duty and respon sibility of further acting in this capacity. No officer has. not even the secretary, received one cent for all their pains and care in this matter- We would suggest a good way to do this, that each person buy a lot or lots of the association and with the sales amounting to $500 the association will be out of debt and the proceeds of future sales can then be devoted to improving and fixing up the grounds. Of course the association can do nothing without means, as you know. *** (Iruiluntioii Notice. The graduating exercises will con sist of the Baccalaureate sermon and Commencement. Rev. G. H.

Come to our warehouse and we wlil show you how it is done with a Litch hj field Spreader. It requires an endless conveyer to do this work and as the Litchfield Spreader has the one successful endless conveyer on the market we do not hesitate to assert that this in the only machine capable o£ hauling extra high loads a long distance and’ do it in a practical manner. It looks funny to us sometimes to see a man going two or three miles with a load of light manure just level with the top of his l«>x. w hen he could, as far as the weight of the load is concerned, just as well handle three or rour times as much. He can not load higher however, on the average machine because he can not distribute it when he gets to the field. The Litchfield machine will stand loading just as high as vou want to, putting on two or three sideboards if vou see fit. providing you do not over-load the machine in weight and this is the onlv limit. Often times light bulky material is to he hauled a lone dis tance, from one farm to another or from town, and the ordinarv spreader makes it an expensive job. ' • Come and see us and we will show you how the Litchfield does this and if it does not appeal to you stronglv there is something wrong with your constitution. Haven't vou observed a man sitting on the average spreader and driving for miles with a load that s Ia pony could pull, just because his machine would not unload it if n was piled any higher? umoaa it il it
