News of Gold Hill.
Editor Times:
The health of this community
is good so far as we know and
the farmers are quite busy preparing
their land and some
planting has been done. The
small grain crop is looking fairly
well and we notice some fine
fields of rye as we pass about.
Well, rye has always been quite
a favorite of ours but we care
nothing about it in that shape.
The prospect for a good fruit
crop is fine at this time.
Messrs. W. H. Windle and
C. P. Blankenship have purchased
new autos and won't we
have a jolly old time splurging
around in the new joy wagons.
Uncle Hoover just keeps on
napping us about keeping meatless
days. Well, if it doesn't
get cheaper than it is now quite
a n umber of us will have more of
that brand of days to keep than
will be pleasant to us ere hog
killing time comes around again,
and again he says that m e should
m* km meat and oao more hash.
Well, what do you reckon the
old chap allows us to make the
hash of? He surely has lost his
bearings. Splinter.
