Report of the Red Willow County
Teachers' Assoclatlon.
The Red Willow county Teachers' association -
sociation met at Bartley , Saturday , November -
vember 16th , 1895. On account of the
bad roads and early trains , but few
teachers were present , The citizens of
Bartley did their best to substitute for
the absent teachers.
At no place in the county do the citi-
-rens seem to take more interest in such
a meeting. The visiting teachers were
very hospitably entertained. On account -
count of small attendance , the morning
session did not begin until 11 o'clock ,
when the following program was presented -
sented : ,

After a short business session the association -
sociation adjourned to meet at McCook
in February , 1896. There had been no
arrangements made for an evening session -
sion , but some of the young people felt
they could not miss the opportunity of
hearing Mr. Valenetine , and persuaded
him to stay. The announcement that
Mr. Valentine would talk was soon
spread about and lie was greeted by a
large audience.
In his pleasing way , which is so well
known to McCook people , he talked
briefly , and read several selections from
Tennyson , "Our best but probably least
c 4l poet" . Among the selections
were : "Lullaby" and "Bugle Song" ,
from the "Princess" ; "The Revenge" ;
"Time Victim" ; " .Dora" ; a scene from
the IV act of "Queen Mary" . Mr.
Valentine tried to show the varied style
of the poet aid to encourage the audience -
dience to read more of Tennyson. He
also urged the young teachers to read
aloud , whenever they have the opportunity -
tunity , as a means of self improvement.
A Pleasant Surprise.
e Myrtle Meyers was given a most delightful -
lightful surprise , last evening , by her
sisters at their home. Refreshments
were served , and the evening passed
quickly with games. Those present
were :
Edna Dixon , Aimee Strasser , Laura McMil-
ten , Maude McMillen , Came Frasier , Ethel
Oyster , Edith Oyster , Elmer Kay , Charlie
McAlanigal , Willie McManigal , Roy Smith ,
Arthur Woods , Arthur Douglass , Abner Clark ,
Mr. Bellamy , Mr. Ritche , Russell McMillen ,
Charlie Northrup , George Leach.
The Colonel Wants Harmony.

"We might moralize at some length
upon the varied features of the late and
. to be lamented county campaign , but we
guess the Republicans know where they
dre at ; and , without shying any more
dornicks at each other , let us get together -
er , bury the internecine hatchet , and
with renewed vigor prepare for the national -
tional campaign of next year.-The
- Indianola Reporter.
We Have Politics Plenty.
There is about as much politics in Mc-
Cook as can be found in the average city
of its size anywhere on earth. The
echoes of the county election have hardly -
ly died away on the air before the murmurings -
murings of the city election of next
spring are heard ; and possibilities for
the mayoralty are being quietly canvass-
ed.
And this interest in politics has its advantages -
vantages and is not without its profit
account.
Wells--Mulholland.
At home cards are out announcing the
marriage of Eercy AVejs and Myrta
L. Mulholland , which took place on
ovember 6th , in Milwaukee. Wiscon-
sin. They will beathome , after Novem-
her 20th , in our city. THE TRIBUNE
adds its congratulations.
Catholic Festival.
The Catholic festival held in Temple
ball-Tuesday , Wednesday and Thursday
S evenings , was quite a success. The
Pythian orchestra furnished music for
'I S the dancers. Refreshments were served
each evening.

the track , drives , grand stands and other
improvements partaining to the race
course , remarked that he had no idea
that there was any such park in this
section of the country. He had lived
here for many years , but never dreamed
that there was as fine a natural park and
ideal race course , and certainly it had
never occurred to him that nature had
been impcoved upon to such an extent.
He left fairly delighted with what he
saw , and stated that upon his return be
would send his horses here to winter.-

moved the barrels of his gun from the

natural life to getting even with Abner.
All in all , Sunday was a bad day for

Some Interesting Statistics.
Squire J. E. Tirrill of Valley Grange
precinct has been compiling some statistics -
tistics of that precinct for the Agricultural -
tural department at Washington , and
from him we have secured the following
interesting facts :
The total number of acres planted to
corn n 1895 was 4,360 ; and the total
amount of bushels of corn raised was 33-
68 , or an average of about 7J : bushels
to the acre.
The total acreage planted to potatoes
was 159 , and the number of bushels of
potatoes raised was 10,028.
The number of acres of corn not irrigated -
gated was 3,770 , upon which 15,255 bushels -
els were produced , or a little over an
average 01 4 bushels per acre.
There were 590 acres planted to corn
under the ditch , and 18,430 bushels
raised , or an average of over 31 bushels
per acre.
Of the total acreage of potatoes , 139
were irrigated , and 8SIo bushels raised ,
or an average of over 61 bushels per acre.
But the 20 acres of potatoes not irrigated -
ed produced 1,488 bushels , or an average
of a little over 74 bushels per acre.
This unexpected showing naturally
developed some curiosity ; and inquiry
further disclosed that the early moron-ir-
rigated potatoes yielded bountifully ;
while the late planted produced noth-
ing.
Squire Tirrill also states that the very
small average yield of non-irrigated corm
is due to the fact that hundreds of acres
produced practically nothing , while some
fields went 25 t0 30 bushels to time acre.
Among the other interesting figures
secured by the Squire in his careful personal -
sonal inquiry over time precinct is the
fact that there are 387'2 acres planted to
alfalfa in the precinct , and that the
stand is fine all over the precinct , in
both valley and upland.
The acreage of rye planted is small ,
59.
These figures are of such interest that
it would be a pleasure to us if those who
secured these figures in the various precincts -
cincts of the county would submit us for
publication a similar statement.
