Don Wright of Chicago, spent Sunday with his parents here. If you want a good cow for stock or milk, attend the W. O. Williams sale, January 31. The storm Saturday and Sunday has again caused some very bad blockades on the public highways and the railroad and the train service are again very b adly disorganized. Milch cows of the best stock will be sold by Harry Gifford at his sale on the 4th of February. / Simon Kenton, of MitchelLSouth Dakota, is here visiting friends and relatives. His sister, Miss Evaline Kenton, is expected here within a few days. She is now visiting with her sister, Mrs. Isaac Parker, of near Wolcott. The kind of stock that every farpier needs may be bought at the Gifford sale on the fourth day of February. Forty four applicants wrote on the teachers’ examination here Saturday. This was the first examination this year. There will be no examination in February, but one will be held each succeeding month, including August. Twelve applicants sent their paper to the state department of education for examination. As a long distant runner, Ora Sellers-is entitled to the blue. Tuesday of this week he saw a lone wolf trotting leisurely along through his cornfield and immediately gave chase and strange to say succeeded in running the wolf down and capturing it, however, old Shep helped some. The wolf is a young one but nearly full grown.—Morocco Courier. If anyone who has had,the misfortunate to lose stock during the cold spell will notify us, we will be glad to call and get it. A. L.
