Union services were held at the Bap tist church last Thursday morning. Rev. Auman of the Methodist church preached an appropriate Thanksgiving sermon, which was full of good points. The Baptist choir rendered two very beautiful anthems in splendid style.

Beet shipments were stopped for a couple of days the flmt of the week, but are commencing again on a small scale now, the orders from tho factory being very light.

It is estimated that over half of the Lamar crop is now in silo to be shipped during the next two months. Lamar Souvenirs. One of the handsomest and most at tractive windows in town is that of the Fair, where Mr. Warburg has displayed a large variety of beautiful Lamar Sou venirs. Fine cups, saucers, plates, trays torthpick holders and a great variety of notions are there, all with fine pictures of Lamar buildings and scenes iu this vicinity, burned into the ware by a pro cess that makes them last as long as the ware itself. The work was done in Vi< nna, Austra, and has been obtained by Mr. Warburg after much labor and expense, but the rapidity with which they have caught the public eye and are selling, will repay his enterprise. We wish to; thank the neighbors and friends who so kindly assisted us during the sickness and deatli of our dearly be loved m ither. Mas. A. P. Henry. W. S. Strain. The American Bset Sugar Co re ceived material this week for the erec tion of a dozen houses at various places ou their lands and also for a number of barns. The material has all been haul ed out to the farms and work on the buildings will begin at once. There is big demand now for farms to rent and those with residences are being taken rapidly. The bumper beot crop is at tracting attention everywhere, and farm ers in sections where frequent crop fail ures occur are turning their eyes to ward the Arkansas valley, the land of plenty. The next beet payment in Lamar will be the record breaker here. The ahip ments from the Lamar dbmp have averaged over 200 tons a day during the entire mon'h and at Morse an average of about 50 tons hns been maintained, while the Prowers station has done still better. It is estimated that nearly $35,000 will be distributed as a result of these big shipments amongst our farm ers and make a splendid Christmas pres ent for them as well as the entire com munity. Some farmers who kicked against raising beets last spring are now living on the fat of the land and paying fo* it with beet money. Commissioner's Proceedings. Lamar, Colo., Nov. 9, 1904.
