Ceta Notes.
Ceta, November 14th.
(Delayed from laet week)
As there is no reporter of hap
penings at Fairview I will make
a dive, by permission.
' Pine rains and fine weather
; . 'still prevail.
'! Wheat and rye are looking
fine.
i Many farmers are preparing
to break more land.
'J. T. Wesley will enlarge his
.farm 140 acres.
';. d It appears that the settlers
are convinced the Plains coun-
; trp is a fine farming country.
:. Land is advancing in price.
' Several new families have
. settled in our neighborhood.
: They are all well pleased with
the country.
Protracted singing and writ
ing school is now in full bloom
at Fairview. Mr. Chambers, of
, South; Texas is our teacher.
(i Mr. Dobbs, a close neighbor
to J. A. Curry has completed
his large barn
I, Mr. L. Rusk and family are
back in our corner prospecting
for a home. 1
We liked the sentiment ex
pressed in The Stayer by a
cousin in regard to speaking
evil of our neighbors. All of
. those, one and a ball times
. around I'll tell you but don't
you tell any one should be
driven to the cap rock, for being
babblers. Kind words and
noble deeds, yes, even kind
, looks are encouraging. Dear
. cousins, if the past is forever
' gone, and the future is not ours,
then what have we to build to.

A Violent Attack of Croup
, Cured.
"Last winter an infant child
of mine had croup in a violent
form, " says Elder John W. Rog
ers, a Christian Evangelist, of
Filley, Mo. "I gave her a few
idoses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and in a short time all
danger was past and the child
recovered." This remedy not
'only cures croup, but when giv
en as soon as the first symptoms
appear, will prevent the attack.
It contains no opium or other
harmful substance and may be
given as confidently to a baby
as to an adult. For sale by the
Hadley Drug Company, the
Leading Druggists.

BEVERLY BRIEFS.
BttVEur.y, Novrmbeu, 14th.
Delayed from lant week. .
Weather wet and cold. It has
been raining two days and it is
very muddy and disagreeable.
The rain is good on wheat but
hard on cattle and feed that is
down on the ground and not yet
stacked. Some of our people have been
very busy putting out fruit trees
bought from Dockery Brothers
nursery.
Mrs. C. Adair arrived at the
Tule ranch this evening, also
the JA cowboys. They will
commence work in the morning.
They will have big roundups
this time as they are going to
gather everything. They will
soon be through with their work
on this side of the canyon.
Mr. Kent made a llying trip to
Pal oduro last Sunday.
Mr. Lindeman and Otto
Pietzsch spent a few days in
Canyon City this week.
Mrs. Marvin McGehee, of
Wayside, , spent last Saturday
night with her parents, W. IL
Lemmons and wife.
Mr. Luther Hastings was in
this part of the country Monday.
Mr. Walker, is working for the
JA Company this week.
Mr. Holder, with his well ma
chine, arrived at Mr. Linde
man 's this evening. He is going
to have a new well put down and
thus the Plains improve.
Miss Ethel Hailey has returned
to Mr. Birch's, her old home.
She has come to stay.
Mrs. Bonds and children
moved back to their old home
last Monday.
Little Annie Jackson has two
pet antelopes, two cats one pet
coon and about eight or ten
dolls. How many more little
girls on the Plains have that
many pets? The coon plays
with her from morning till night
and never tires. The antelopes
watch for her coming from
school every evening and run
down the road and meet her so
they have a big play back to
the house. Who can beat that
for pets.
I wonder how X. T. Z. likes
the picture of his new dish
washer? If I were him I would
not pitch another bit of hay or
'wash another dish until I found
that girl.
Miss Minnie Brooks is all
smiles this week. Her best fel
low was up a few days ago.
