Harry bas a splendid claim in the strip and is putting in his time farming aud improving his land. He has “about }10 acres of corn which he says will make a fair crop. He joins farms with Ove Harris and reports him as well pleased and doing well. He said Ove had about 40 acres of good corn, held the office of collect- or, school director, justice of the peace aud it was generally conceded that he would be nominated and elected to a fat county office. Har- ry said “Ove is very popular in the county and I believe he could get al-, most anything he wanted.” The splendid statement made by | the Bates County National Bauk, which can be seen in this issue of the Times, speaks for the solidity and popularity of this business in- | stitution of Butler and for the conti- dence imposed by the patrons and general public in the management | of the bank The statement shows | $190,901.50, sur- | $15,700 individual deposits 54.17, time deposits $14,121.35.

The water company is determin- ed that the supply of water for this city shall be up to and above the standard, if the very best filtering apparatus to be had will accomplish the result. For several days the supply of water, as all know, has not been what it should be or what the company desired. This trouble has been the fault of the filter, and to _remedy this defect the water com- pany has secured the necessary ma- terial and Monday morning the standpipe was filled, the reservoir ;emptied and a large force of men put to work making the changers in the filtering apparatus. | It will take several days hard work to make the repairs undertaken and during this time it may become nec- essary in order to give the town a full supply of water to force direct pressure. In case this is done the water for a few days wi!l have to be | taken in its natural state from the | river and the citizens should patient- ly bear with the company until the repairs are completed. Then the water will be filtered to the receiv- |ing basin again, and the company has every reason to believe the | water delivered in the city will be as clear and pure as it is possible to (obtain.
