The voters of this county are
registering very slowly, in fact, too
Blowly. Up to date only about 1 00

to put this off until the last possible

Through an oversight Mr. S. N.
Wilkins failed to have his list of

complete in the first edition of his

the last edition printed is the most
complete thing of this nature, ever
printed in this city and it will be
found very convenient and useful
in many ways.
There was a dance last Friday
night down at Wells and Louis
Zeis, Cliff and Dolph Kerr and
their best 'girls attended from this
city. On their return home, when
within about three miles of Corval

the extreme darkness, and their ve
hiclewas overturned. Luckily, no
one was hurt and the hack only
slightly damaged.
The Farmers' Short Course is
now in progress at the O A C. The
attendance is good, but when one
realizes what is offered in this
course the wonder is that more.of
our farmers do not avail themselves
of this splendid opportunity to get
something for nothing. Really,
such advantages are not often
placed within the grasp of the farm
ers and at a season of the year least
calculated to interfere with their
farm work.
On Friday evening, January 31st,
