Pearl Greenley’s Sweet Sixteenth Lawn Party Memory
A sixteen year old, Pearl Greenley, celebrated with a bright lawn party planned by friends. Guests enjoyed games, a festive lunch, and a memorable gift, while a clergyman warned of temperance in a light exchange. A drowning death of Theron Haskins at Delwa in a park, with Rev. Nichols nearly losing his life in the rescue, shocked the community. Near Ada, a nine year old girl lost both legs in a mowing accident by a brother driven machine, now recovering in Crookston, with family grief and no blame. Look up the new ads.

Big Returns from Iowa Strawberries and Crops on Town Land
The West Union area farmer D. H. Hall reports his fifteen acre farm yields diverse crops. Two acres of strawberries produced 5000 quarts in 1908 at ten cents per quart, while this year 7600 quarts earned 11 cents each totaling 412.50 per acre. Hall notes high years in 1901 2 and 8 with up to 9000 quarts annually on small plots, and onions expected to yield about 400 per acre. He argues that nonirrigated town land can rival irrigated western land for such crops.
