after thinking it over take enough
pride in the appearance of their
community to have changed their
mind and cast their vote in favor
and make easy going in favor of
the new building but those who
held this illusion were mistaken.
when it proved that those oppos
ed had added five to what they
called their "party" but when
the votes were counted it showed
a gain of six volunteers who came
to the rescue of the side favoring
the-new building giving them a
majority of two votes.
Another meeting will be held in

the cherry buds before they had
gotten open, according to N. L.
Guy, who has made a close ex

The more advanced buds were
mostly killed though.
Mr. Guy stated that the dam
age appears to be the same in all
varieties. He found conditions sim

The other fruits such as prunes,
pears, and later fruits have .pot

NEW SEWER DALLAS
TO BE
Council Turns Down Remon
strance; Bids Called
for by April 29
DALLAS, April 12. The city
council voted this week at a spe
cial meeting called to hear remon
strations on the construction of
the proposed Uglow avenue sewer,
to proceed with the construction
of the sewer. Bids were called for
to be submitted on Monday, April
29.
The proposed 6ewer will run
from Mill street to connect with
the Maple street trunk sewer, and
divert the sewage now flowing in
to the old septie tank into the
new tank on Miller avenue. It
was proposed by the health and
police committees on intimation
that the state board of health
would condemn the old tank as a
menace to the public.
A remonstrance against the
sewer, bearing about 70 signa
tures, was presented to the coun
cil. PRATUM. April 12. At 4:00
o'clock Sunday morning Val Gehr
ig awoke and saw -his brooder
hquse and contents go up in
smoke, umy two days neiore ne
had placed 160 chicks in the
brooder. Heat was supplied by a
small oil stove and stove pipes
were used to distribute the heat
through the brooder.
It is thought that the high wind
at that time blew open the door
on the heating plant giving too
much draft and causing the stove
to over beat.
