Charles Van Valkenburg, who net with a serious accident a lew weeks ao, bv hauling lumoeron the m luutains eit of here.is slowly recovering. Oar Co-op. Store is pr ibably doing a better business just at present th in. aiy other in the County. taking in hundreds jf d liars of outside trade each week b;-side b;-side the great majority of the hen'e trade. The Fairviav House, owned by ivfrs. 5. J. Sauderon is doing a rushing busines, having lilieen to twenty-four hoarders an me time. Many callers who have hid J a chance to know, say she has the bst I accomodations to be had in the County, and that the food provided is first-clan. How is that for Fairview? The" surveyors of the D. & R. (y railroad rail-road are now at work between Fairvitw and Alt. Pleasant cross-sectioning tbe road, It is expected that. Crandal and Deal will begin woik 011 this road between be-tween this place and Manti this week, as they have a number of men and teams here awaiting a chance to work; while the gradiug is Hearing us on the north. WHAT MEANS A BOOM? They say Fairview is booming. If that is what is the ma'ter with her. we hope she w.ll soon recover, f r socially social-ly she is at present considerably under the weather. Periiap tint is not the proper way to express it either, as it is uot the weather that is effecting her. but the "lioom." She has iht ".Boom" awful bad, and we hereby offer a reward of two tramns and a tie-chonuer to anu ! one who will perscribe an emetic that I will purge from' his stomach the f-.ul : trash which has been accumulating there ; for the past two or three weeks. This disease resembles the La Grippe in that its elbcts aie d ff'erent in different localities; tor instance, in Little Chicago it brought on an enlargement of the noddle, which was pr .nounced by some ! to be "water on the brain." The effect j on Fairview is quite different as it opei-l ates altogether on her stomach, and she j hasn't thought once that she could beat! Salt Lake playing 'lla-e Kail', and if! she did, she would take good care that she did not think so loudas to be heard at the capital, least the thing should be tested as it was at Little Chicago. Fairview claims to be good on tha diamond, but she don't rneau to let Sak Lake know jt. py sir.but il.C'ille VUji. Wants a game, just let him come over to j our house, li Fairview didn't have th 'Ho nn" she might go ovet there, bur it would never do to leave tne wHoom"aud get detvuud, Uotii, so she will iiap he ' wings and crow. In this she resembles. ; ner nig sister irem Jua... Well, line sav the ioom"isa good thing to have,, so did Fairview a few weeks ago, but now she is like the little boy with the bear, she would like someone to help her to let it go. Hut they sav there is no great loss without some small gain. This will also apply to the "Boom." It's as good as an atlas of the world almost. Why our boys can just sit around the stores and learu about the tie-camps of Montana, the ranches ol Colorado and Idaho, and the mining camps and bad women of Nevada, whether they can read or not. Dunt you wish you had the "-Boom?" If you do, come and get i: right away, as it is eating up all our surplus hay, and we fear it will not stop there. It is almost al-most as bad as the grasshoppers of Ephraim, only it dues not eat oats before they are th iashed nor hay before it is hay, but it is now looking on like the little boy who has to wait till the second table to eat, anxiou-dy awaiting the time when the hum of the thrasher will be beaid in the land; and it will not have to wait long as the harvest is at hand, and that $1.75 per cw t for oats is a big thing in the eye of the San I'ete farmers, whose binsgenerally look like a bread-pan bread-pan which has been filled with dough, stocked with leaven and allowed to stand in a warm place over night. To our sisters who are expecting to b afflicted with the Boom" in the neat future we would say. Hold on to your hay and grain as tn Boom must have G. |
