Miss Mattie Gower, a faithful clerk in the local post-office, who underwent an operation at - ' the Cedar City hospital last -week, is making a splendid recovery, re-covery, and will be back at her old post within a few days. -- Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Thorley will entertain at their home next Saturday in rememberance . . of Mr. Thorley's 39th birthday. Verbal invitations have been issued to a large circle of their friends, and with the well-known faculty of the hostess for entertaining, enter-taining, one of the best social affairs of the season may be con-, , fidently expected. ':' Dr. A. N. Leonard, who only .vr a month ago acquired an en larged homestead one mile west ' of the Qitchapa ranch, has al- " ready cleared and plowed about 100 acres of the land. A part of this will probably be planted to corn next season, and all will be T . seeded to wheat and rye a year ' , hence. The versatile doctor gives , 3T promise of becoming somewhat of a farmer as well as an aggres- ' aive practitioner ere long. i K J. E. Anderson, the progres- pivearid farmer located about .12 miles southwest from Cedar City, informs us that he has 48 pcres of land seeded to arid wheat, and that he expects to have considerable ipore planted before snow flies. Mr. ' Ander- v. - son has an excellent location and ' will doubtless make an unquali- ' lied 'success of his venture. ' More men like "Jim" are what ' is needed to bring a railroad ' into this section, and give us. something hto export instead of all imports. Mr. J. E. Anderson will leave next week for Arizona to place his cattle on the Dixie forest reserve. He believes that he can save money by personally person-ally being present to count in the cattle, instead of estimating them as heretofore.
