The ground is covered . with, a1 few
inches of snow, hardly enough for sleigh

hungry. Most of our sheepmen have
rented parture land of our Juniper Flat
neighbors, who are blessed with bunch
grass, and so avoid feeding hay-i
Nearly every one in our 'taeck o' the
woods ' has had or is just , getting-over
the "grip'." But grip or no grip, our
young folks still love dancing, and grati
fied all the -desire they had for it last
Friday evening, at the Wapinitia school
house. Music was furnished by Trip-
peer's band, and -a fine supper was
served for the dancers at the Wapinitia
hotel. . Frank Gabel can tell you
whether it was good or not.
Leap-year has actually come, ' an.V I
can't begin to. tell you how surprised
some of the old bachs were when; last
Thursday Maggie Weberg told Joe Bins
that if -"he was a mind to" they" would
visit the city to get a fo article" from

A. Flue Set of Abstract Book.
1 A Chronicle reporter called at the
office of J. M. Huntington & Co. this
morning, and through the courtesy o
Mr. Huntington was , permitted to in
Lspect their system of title abstracts,
which is'one of the most" "complete and
reliable things of its kind ever gotten
up, and is the only set of abstract books
ever- made for Wasco county. These
books,' three in number, were made es
pecially -for ''the-' hinds' embraced in
Wasco winntr. anA winll WnaoloAa R'
where else. They are verv large, the
leaves being 18x20 inches in size, and!"
contain 2000 pages. Two of them, ire
sl
for all lands in the county not included
in town plats, while the ether coutai
mi town property. lliey are so ar
ranged that tbe whole history of the
title to any piece of property may be
seen with a glance ; so that if a person
wishes to know the condition of the title
-a - -
to "any piece of land in the county,
whether farm or city "property, timber
or mineral lands, Mr. Huntington can
tell in a few minutes what it might
take several hours or - a whole day to
find out at the countv tlerk's office.
The books are self-correcting, and will
to an absolute certaintv, detect any error
in description that may occur in convey
ancing or recording ; and. by a system of
consecutive numbering, it is possible to
trace a long chain or title- through what
ever channel it may come, whether by
deed, power of attorney, decree of court
or will, in a remarkably short'time and
with perfect accuracy. These books
need only to be seen to be. appreciated.
The labor of writing them. up has been
done entirely by Mr. .Huntington who
feels a jnet pride in thetn. - .
Besides- tire abstract - business,- this
firm does a large "insurance f business!
representing six strong firb insurance
companies, with an aggregate of capital
of $22,000,000, whoso reliability was well
attested by the prompt manner in which
all their losses by the recent fire were
settled.:
