We hear that it was to hold a Business man's little advertise- npnt that the. editor of theSearch- ight slandered the fair narao of ) ur village marshal. That she vould slander the families who iherish that fair name in our city ! or the little business that such a slanderer could give , and only up- m his demand for the slanderous irticle to appear under penalty of osing his advertisement , is a iarnple of the money grasping , , designing and trouble- naking purpose of the Search- ight and its editor. We don't cad it and hope our readers do lot. Henry Sanner was in town Tuesday to get bills for his sale lext Tuesday , March 2. Mr. San- ler has sold his farm and has de- fided to go down east to try farm- ng for awhile. The land costs nore money down there and you : an't raise but little more on it , nd some seasons not so much as ; an be raised in Cherry county. Dhey may raise five to ten bushels nore corn per acre but we've got em skinned on spuds. Our home narket for Cherry county pro- lucts should not be lost sight of. farmers do not have to ship corn , > ats or wheat out of this county , nit find a ready market for all .he.y . can raise at a price that adds lie freight from eastern points Chi ? is largely a stock country , nd the grain to be had finds ready ale to people living down in the lay flats and sand hills. But Mr. banner is selling out and leaving Cherry county. His sale next Tuesday ought to attract the farm- j rs and stockmen who can attend j iis sale. Mr. Sanuer lives on the { ' aain Rosebud reid , 12 miles north- rest of Valentine.

They have lived here a long time , during th < early days when the country wa < new and the hot winds swept over the dry prairies in the summer and scorched the crops , for there wasn't so much land farmed then and the winds oil' the prairies poorly covered with a short grass , got hotter and made farming a more hazardous undertaking than in recent years. Somehow these early settlers find it hard to forgot those pion- 3er days when their courage was strong and their ambition equal tc ilmost any task , yet they suffered failure after failure but each with courage and zeal renewed they went forth to sow again. Even aow when they think of those days ) f expectation abd disappointment : hey wonder that their courage did aot wane. Many of those pioneers are growing old now , with wrinkles ) n their brows and their locks are iiirning grey. They have less inergy for "years steal lire from , he mind as vigor from the limb , " ind they are prone to wonder how .hey could withstand such times Lgain. Their minds carry the Iread that such conditions will re- urn sometime and proclaim this , . desert land and that there will > e another exodus of farmers with out a chance to mortgage and cave , as they did in ' 02 and ' 93. Yes , it stares them in the face nd when oll'ered $20 an acre or 1SOOU for a farm it looks better han their chances in the early ays when they'd have given up 11 they had for 40 acres in the ast or a good garden patch arid a ottage. But it was thus down in eastern Nebraska and Kansas twenty ears earlier. They hid drouths a the ' 70's and recurring at inter- als. Thousands of farmers then disheartened and went back Iowa , Missouri and Illinois , who stayed were rewarded or their perseverance with the op- lortunity to buy a neighboring arm to increase their possessions .t low prices. Their lands are low selling at almost prohibitive > rices unless one owns other lands djoining that can be annexed for bigffer farm , or to kept the old aan's family together near home. Cherry county farms will bring 50 per acre in a few years , where hey now sell for $20. St. Nicholas Church. Services will be held in the /atholic church as follows : In Valentine on Sunday. March .

The Valentine Building & Loan Association will open Series "T" on Tuesday , March 2 , at which time any person desiring to be come a member , either as an investor - ! vestor or with the view of borrow-1 ing can secure the stock and thereafter - ' after participate. There is no need of extended notice , nor set ting forth the advantages of this associative , either for the investor or the borrower. It has been a strictly Valentine institution for jthe past fifteen years and its work ! speaks for itself. i I As a place for savings it cannot be beaten and should have for its membership , persons earning an amount over living expenses who desire to save a little each month and have that little earning inter est. It is in as solid condition and as safe a place .for investment as can be found anywhere. Persons who become members desiring to withdraw can do so and get the re turn of their money , principal and and interest , by giving 30 days notice , and it is seldom that the directors wait the 30 days before making payment but pay upon request. Tint is as good as any savings bank will do. One has no right to pay rent who can possibly get a home through the help of this associa tion. That can and will be attest ed by the large number of borrow ers since the association began business. Anyone desiring to become a member should apply to J. T. t i Keeley , secretary , or F. A. Cum- bow , treasurer. II S. We.athor 53 JM > : IJ for week Kmling FeZ > . 24. Daily mean temperature 30 ° . Normal 22 ° . Highest ol ° , lowest ° . Precipitation 0.52 of an inch.
