J-ydiard and Dfmlap aro , feeding two car loads of fine beef cattle for t,he market. Tho feed consists of ensilage and alfalfa. ,The recent school census for this district shows thirty children of school age, or about one child for eac n ia m 1 ly , w n i le t e n yea rs ago wlen the school house was built, the average was a little more than two children of school nge in each home, and thirty years back there wero ten families in tho district with some thirty-five children of school age. H previous conditions still existed, our two-room house would be crowded but as it is today one room easily houses the school.

At ono time an effort was made1 to establish a high school In out dis-1 trict, but the measure was killed by thoso who feared tho Increaso in taxes. Now, by tho changing of school laws, it appears wo are compelled to pay a high school tax for not operat ing a high school. Aside from this, patrons of the district aro paying some $30 a mouth for transporting their children to high schools. This ondi(louhas created a strong senti ment In favor of tho district paying these transportation charges. Mrs. Myrtle Oulivoson of Marsh field was looking over ranch prop-( erty in this and the Sams valley dis-, trict one day last week. ..' . . . ; A fire which was discovered at.1 two o'clock' Christmas morning, . to tally destroyed tho log bungalow on th Flat Uock ranch occupied by C.

The houso was constructed some ten years ago by Uoudinot Conner at u cost of $11,000. Tho annual Christmas tree at the school house was a decided success In every way. The tree was laden with gifts for everyone and a Jollv crowd of lnei ry-makcrs from every I m r t of the va 1 ley we re In atten dance. The program, wlicih was neither too short, nor too long proved to bo ono of the most interesting to iuko plat e in this district for several years, not alone to grown tips, hut to tho kiddies as well, who proclaim ed the Santa Cluus ushered in by imi incent as tho genuine article Much credit is duo our teacher, Mis Juno Dunlap, whoso untiring efforts made the affair the success it was.
