last Monday the Upper Quihi
School opened with a medium
attendance. The onuse of this is
the fact that many of the boys are
helping to Water sto:k, etc. When
the rains come the attendance
will be increased. The teachers
tbefresilyermen do Dot shut
their mouths and keep silest, now
is the time for we to organize, and
it is our solemn duty as citizens of

since the water in the tank has
been stendi’y increasing and he
has now a mineral apriug in his
tank, with water as clear as
crystal and as salty as the Gulf
of Mexico. On your hands the
water feels nearly like oil. Mrs.
baniiiuff boiled some of the water
till it ha l evaporated, when a
crust of almost pure salt was left
at the bottom of tho kettle. Mr.
Saathoff has also a place in his
field where nothing grows, but ou
cloudy days the ground is moist
and black while on dry days a
whitish erust formson top of the
ground; this indicates salt and
shows that somewheres in the
vicinity of Capt. Sathofs tank
must be a deposit of salt, which,
if disoovered might prove plenti-
ful enough tabs a source of profit
to the owner.
