Cashion
To visit our thriving little neigh-
bor on the east discloses the fact
that Cashion is on the boom.
There are three business build-
ings now in course of construction
— Fields Bros, are building a doub-
le store building on the east side
of Main street 50 by So in dimen-
sion of concrete foundation and
basement with the iirst story to
be of concrete blocks, John LongJ
necker has been rebuilding his
store room <>n the west side of
Main street and will put in a
pressed brick front, the Farmers'
Bank has under contract and in
course of construction a pressed
brick building 5° by t)o on the
west side of Main stree:, where
that street intersects with the ♦
boulevard. 1
We found the business men of Y
Cashion all busy and all in good ♦
spirit and optimistic, including 1
Blind Bud Raines, who never 1
takes second place for anybody *
when it comes to courage or en- ,
terprise.
The town was full of farmers. ;
all of them cheerful and prepar-
ing to enter the spring campaign
with the full hope and intent ot
making this a record breaking ;
crop year,
It is yet too early to determine
definitely the condition of the5
wheat crop. It looks like one;
half the fields are all right and
will make a good crop, and one j
half of the renlainder are doubt-
ful, and the remaining fourth are
lost and will be sown to other
crops.
Improvements are not confined
to the town, M. l' . Bruce has re- j
cently constructed 011 the farm of ;
B. F. Wood worth north of town, ,
a hog house 186 feet long. He is
preparing to build a concrete tank I
for stock. Has a self feeder that
will hold 500 bushels of shelled j
corn, has 235 head of hogs and 65 :
head of cattle on full fe •<.!. Bruce
is a buver, shipper and feeder, j
He has paid out over hundred (
thousand dollars for stock since
t\e has been here, and iias suc-
ceeded in making Cashion one ot j
the best competitive siock mark-
ets in the state.
All the live stock in the conn- i
:rv have wintered thru in good
shape. Farm buildings and pre-1
mises are universally well kept
and cared for.
Altogether, a glimpse of the
country and country places is a
rest and a respite from the grind
of the print shop. —Kingfisher

Chester Childers and family

Jake Blevens, of Crescent, vis-
ited Mr. La\ysons last Sunday.
The farmers are very busy put ,
ting iu oats; some aredo"v; wheat
is beginning to look nice, but it
is a lottery whether it will make
anything 011 account of short seas- j
011; if it could only make enough
for seed again the farmers would
be glad.
Mrs. Hamil has about a bund-,
red little chickens and Mrs. 1«>e ]
Hedgccock has over fifty.
Louie Hirzell and wife, of west
