The pool at present is the fleeces of about 12,000 goats and will ainoiuit to about 50,000 or 00,000 pounds, ordinarily, but the winter has been unusually severe in the hill districts, and consequently it is supposed the clip wiT, he somewhat lighter than usual.

Independence On last Friday evening a large crowd from here packed the motor for Dallas to hear the celebrated humorist, Eli Perkins. Mr. Perkins went to Dallas by way of Independence and a few met him here en route. He is rather an aged man, but quick and bright in conversation. He can walk to much greater advantage when supported. Mr. Te'rkins as an orator would be a failure, but he has an abundant store ot wit and keeps his audience in good humor throughout his lecture. However, some of his jokes were very old." , The Dallas Epworth League is to be congratulated on their enter priso in securing a man of national reputation to visit them and lec ture. Better still they made it a money maker. Ueorglu Harper Company. The Georgia Harper Company will play a return date here on March 11th, on which ; occasion they will present Dumas' master piece, "Camille." Miss Harper will positively appear during thie engagement without fail. Just A Suggestion. Unless steps are taken to prevent it, Polk county is liable to have a damage suit, to settle with some one. The Soap L'reek bridge near Kid der's grove on the Corvallis and Independence road is a point that, needs the attention of the authorities. The south approach to the bridge is not only very nar row, but there is a steep embank ment on either side of it, a plunge j from which would land a vehicle in the deep waters below. A met tlesome team would be hard to manage on this approach, and a quick lnnge to one side would up set light easily. s A If there is a chance to boom busi ness, boom it. Don't be a knocker don't pull a long face and get sour on your stomajh. Hope a bit. Get a smile on you. Hold up your head. Get a hold with both hands. Then pull. Dury your hatchet, drop your tomahawk, hide y r little hammer ar.d when a stranT drops in tell him this is the great est town on earth, it is. Don't ft. mulish, don't roast, be jolly, get popular. It's dead easy, help your self along. Push your friend with you, soon you'll have a whole pro cession. Be a good fellow. No man ever helped himself by knpckiig other people down. No man ever got rich trying to make people believe that he was the only good man on earth. You can't climb a ladder of fame by stepping on other people's corns. They're their corns not yours and they're tender., Keep oil the corns. All men are not , alike. Once in awhile you may find one who is very much alike, but some are different. You're not the onlj shirt in the wash. If you don't like their style let 'em alone. Don't knock. You'll get used to it. There's no end of fun in minding your own business. And it makes other people like you better. Better have others get stuck on yourself. Nobody gets stuck on a knocker. Don't he one.
