The late rain has been quite beneficial to the farmers and gardeners since it put the ground in a better condition.

A barn belonging to J. B. Boggess who lived two miles east of Plano, burned last night. Loss about $1,000. Insurance not known.

Miss Reta Scott is teaching very successful school at the county line district.

This community has lately introduced the telephone line which marks a step of progress.

Will Bedell went to Dallas today to get a supply of garden seed and early seed corn.

Miss Myrtle Carter is in Dallas having her eyes doctored.
