The first part of the year 1906 starts off with nouBually brigb prospects in Morrow county. The wheat acreage is large, tbe acreage of winter wheat being fully 25 per cent greater than last year. The winter so far has been very favor able, the mild weather giving the grain a good chance to get well rooted and making a growth so that plants are strong and in proper condition for rapid spring growth. There is every iudication now that the coming oiop will be a big one. Tbe sheep industry is one of Morrow county's strong pillars and the conditions were never more favorable for the sheep men. Prices are high and sheep are fat with plenty of feed. The indications are certainly for a year of prosperity. TEACHER'S EXAMINATION. Meetings continue at the Cbiisti n church.
