The Haiella Neighborhood.
Hazelia, Jan, 13. The heavy rains of last
month compelled a cessation of all farm
work, but the few pleasant days haw started
all business up again. Plows are running,
fences are being repaired and fanners are
confident of an early spring. The acreage
ol grain will lie much greater this year than
last, as the very low price of potatoes has
discouraged many from raising that crop:
The New Year's edition of the Enter
prise is worth the price of a year's subscrip
tion. It is valuable to lay aside for future
reference.
Improvements seem to be the order in our
county, and Haielia is not betiind her
neighbors in that respect. There were some
new buildings put up in the last year, but
there were a great many fruit trees, grapes,
hops and small fruits planted. lur hills
are too valuable as tine orchard lands, and
too close to a good market, to longer be
passed unnoticed by those in search, of little
homes. j
There is a general disappointment in the
coursetaken which deprived us of the ad
vantages to be had in having a better road
to Portland. '"Try, try again" isour motto.

Bad Accident to
a Lad with
Team.
a Runaway
Cuebryville, Jan. 17. An accident befell
Tommy Cully, a fourteen-year-old lad, on
Wednesday morning which, though he has
suffered acutely, appears like a fortunate
escape. He was descending the hill south
of the K)st office witti a load of fenceponts.
A part of the load slid forw ard upon the
horses, causing them to run and throwing
Tommy upon the wagon tongue. A few
rods of keen gallop brought them against a
tree with a force that shattered the neck
yoke and threw the posts forward, jamming
his body in contact with the tree. Happily,
his father was near and promptly extricuted
him. Dr. Ingraham of Sandy and Dr.
Chambers of East Portland were summoned.
No bones were broken but the bruising of
internal organs caused much suflering.
Elder Trullinger preaches hereabout once
a month; also about as often at Clilfside.
