WEST CARPENTER.

Crowded out livtt week. D. F. Michaels is now a resident of Goodland. He sold his 80 acre farm to Henry Griggs, of Goodland. Mr. B. F. Gray, living three miles west of Remington, lost a good work horse last Friday night. Mr. Goble, who has been living north of Remington for several years, has moved on the Teter farm, better known as the McManus farm. Jack the Ripper failed to rip last week. The Pilot of last week furnished some good music to the lax payers of Jasper county if they will only listen. Mr. Frank Babcock visited his brother James, of near Fair Oaks, one day last week and he reports his brother as being weT, pleased with his new home up in the brush. Mr. John Hudson is our leading stock dealer. He will trade for anything from a fifty cent pig up to a herd of cattle. If you have anything to sell or trade call on Jack, but not the “Ripper.”

The winter term of school at the Price school house closed last week, but we understand the spring term will commence about the 15th of April. We notice a large barn, a new dwelling house and a double corn crib is looming up on the Simington farm, lately pur chased by E. Hunter, of Goodland. There is considerable improving done in this part of Jasper m the way of new buildings, tiling and figuring out how to vote at our next election to get justice to the farmers of Jasper county. But there is one say ing, “what is sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.” Shorty.
