The 21 ranch , formerly owned
by Keed and Esborn , has recently
been sold to Bird , Hay & Co. The
ranch sold with 1900 head of cattle
for § 115,000. We understand the
new company will place on the
ranch fifty head of pure bred short
horn cattle. This not only means
a profitable investment for them
but will serve as an excellent en

ranches.
/ OBITUARY.
Julia , wife of Klza E. Vander-
grift , died Oct. IS , 1907 , at an
early age , mourned by a husband
and four little ones and a large
number of friends who esteemed her
as a devoted wife and mother and
a consistent member of the M. E.
church. She v as born in Alia ,
Iowa , in 1&S2 , 11m second daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Colby.
She received her education in
the public and normal schools of
Madison and tlio Mjilo normal
school at SpringHu ] , , S. D. Her
thorough scholarship was shown
by her writings , especially a re
ligious piece entitled "Sometime
AVe'll Understand. " She lived a
few years only in Iowa , then lo
years in South Dakota and 9 years
in Nebraska , where , in 1900 , she
married El/a E. Vandergrift.
Suddenly stricken with puerper
al scepticcmia , she was taken to
Omaha for treatment , but her
strength was not equal to the
journey and after severe sull'ering ,
which she endured with Christian
fortitude and patience. She died
there and was taken to Woodlake
for burial. The sad services were
conducted by Rev. A. T. Carpent
er , assisted by the M. W. A. and
the Royal Neighbors. The pall
bearers , led by the M. W. A.
were Will Parker , John Whillans ,
Mort Izenhart , Wm. Wagner , M.
J. Hyde and Chas. Hostetter.
For the occasion the church was
beautifully decorated with a pro
fusion of Ilowers , tokens of esteem
and love from Woodlake friends.
