| FROM MONTANA .1. B. Kiracofe, Former Resident, is Prospering in Western State IS ATTENDING SCHOOL * And Teaches in Winter Season—Now Owns 480 Acres of Fine Land The Smith & Bell office has received the following letter from J. B. Kirafore, former resident here, which will be of Interest to his many friends here: Martinsdale. Montana. July 25, 1920. Present address. Dillon. Mont. Smith & Hell. ‘ Decatur, Ind. Gentlemen: I have some spare time I | this afternoon and will answer your! I letter of nearly a year ago as I like I I to hear from you at least once a year. | I 1 am down in the southwestern part; lof the state for a few weeks at the I state normal. I plan working here summers and ! | by correspondence until I receive the] , degree of pedagogy. I always liked i ! school work very much and only drop | ' ped it in Ohio owing to my health, hut . ) Montana lias the climate for me. I I had a very successful year at Martins-1 ' dale and remain for another vear with an increase of S4OO or a salary of SIBO I per month. We won the medal at the county school fair this spring for the best exhibit in the county in schools of our class. I spent one month on my Phillips county ranch before coming here. I purchased an additional quarter this spring and now have 480 acres. We have had an abundance of rain thh season and crop conditions are excellent. There is dry land spring wheat i in our county that measures five feet, i three inches. I am having more ground broke and will have 80 acres of summer fallowed ground for crops next spring and that is the only proper method of farming in this section. A large acreage of corn and sun-flowers has been : planted this season as this is a splenI did way to fallow and at the same time grow an ensilage crop for the silo. We would like very much to be in Decatur for Old Home Week,-but do not plan to return for another year or two. Mrs. Kiracofe and Juanita are spending the summer in Martinsdale. They are both in the best of health. Juanita will be in the Third grade in September. When I return will have two weeks’ vacation, which we will spend camping in the mountains. i We are on the main line of the | Milwaukee, electrically operated, ar.d I fine mountain scenery. 1 would surely (enjoying seeing Mr. Smith or Colter ; land a mountain trout. When you Dome West again, Mr. Smith, be cure land stop. Trusting to hear from you soon, and with best wishes, I am, Y'ours very truly, J. B. KIRACOFE. An acre of land was once measured as the amount of land a yoke of oxen could plow between sunup and sundown. 44444444444444444 + OFFICIAL TIME TABLES OF * !+ THE THREE RAILROADS 4 4- ENTERING DECATUR 4 ♦ 4 ♦ CHICAGO & ERIE 4 + East Bound. 4 + No. 8 3:40 a . m. + ♦ No. 226 8:54 a. m. 4 ♦ No - 4 5:36 p. m. + 4 West Bound. + ♦No. 7 1:53 a. m. 4 + No. 312:57 p. m. 4 ♦ No. 227 8:20 p. m. 4 ♦ + i+ GRAND RAPIDS & INDIANA 4 | + South Bound. 4 + No. 4 1:53 a . m. 4 I + No. 18 6:55 a. in. 4 • No. 2 1:00 p. m. 4 ' 4 North Bound. 4 + No. 512:15 a. m. 4 , 4 No. 7 9:18 a. m. 4 , 4 No. 3 3:55 p. m 4 ■l4 TOLEDO.
