Robert- son on the evening of January 11th, 1889, Present, Messrs. Smeitzer, W eller, Weaver ahd Robertson. Trustee#, the following resolutions were duly adoptedj.... Wb b b k a s, in various parts o f the.State small pox has. broken o u t and the State Boarfi of Health deenSr i t the duty o f the citizens to be vacciuated to prevent the spread of the disease, and its pursuance of Chapter 488 o f the La)f# of I860, pertain- in g to, general vaccination to schools, i t is therefore, t Resolved, That eadf and all pupils (not vaccinated) attending'the union School iu D istrict No. 5, in the Tow n o f Montotir, are required to be vaccinated w ithout delay, otherwise, after a period o f ten days after due service O f this notice be ekCluded from the benefit o f said school, Reaolved,T\x»l any child or person o f suit- and now we are ready for souiethiog else. Goideu winter days, of lale . and as re- markable a month of January, thus far, as were last years’ July, August, September and October. The story w ill be different somewhat in February and March. On a farm a short distance west of W at- kins, stump pulling has been going on for weeks past, w ith no frost in tbe ground ; and January plowing is reported from va- rious sections of the county. The Town meetings w ill soon be here, and there is a prospect of a sharp contest, on Supervisor, in the town of D ix. James Gray, the present incumbent o f that office, by appointment, w ill probably be tbe Re- publican candidate; and i f he is elected, he w ill probable ;be. a candidate for Mem- ber of Assembly next fall. Miss tinsan Kennedy, for a term of years % compositor in the newspaper ofaces of Watkins, has recently purchased a house and lot on Eighth street, known as the “Shepherd place,” fo r an even $1,000. It is located directly opposite tbe Backett res- idence and w ill make Miss Susan a pleasant home, w ith one half of it to rent, and un- like other riches, real estate cannot“ take wings and fly away,” Now is the time to purchase real estate in Watkius. The wrecking o f the Freer :estate and‘ the forced sale, several years ago, o f so much real property, had a very depressing effect on the market. But hard- pan, so to express it, has been reached at last, and village lots and homes can no lower go. The indications now are that, henceforth, there w ill be a steady, gradual •and permanent rise. Watkins sends congratulatory greetings to Havana on the reopening o f the Mon- tour and Webster Houses. The people of tins village have no desire to see those of Havana, to d its true interests injured. We are really better off when Havana is pros- perous than when she is under a cloud ; and then in summer we want just such a pleasant place, three miles away, to drive to, and when we get there we want to go to its nicely, conducted hotels, see Giles and Weaver, their deservedly popular pro- prietors. and, eyen w ith none o f the ardent imbibed, come away satisfied and happy. We learn from Mr. Bucl S. Sackett, who is connected w ith the Seneca Lake-Steam Flouring Mills, that the very large acreage o f buckwheat sown in Schuyler this year, has resulted, notwithstanding the in ju ry to the crop by frost in some lim ited sections, in a fu ll Supply o f that grain fo r the m ill- ing and trade season ; and that prices for both the grain and flour now range low. The opening purchase price, last fall, was 75 cents per bushel, while the present price is but 50 cents; and wheat, of which there was considerable more raised last than the year before, now brings $1.10 per bushel. The. open winter tends to depress buckwheat prices. Pancakes and zero always go well together. Hon. Fremont Cole, having introduced a . b ill into the Assembly for tbe establish meut of a Normal school at Watkins, iu the event of its passage, w ith a $50,000 appropriation, it w ill become an important question as to wjiera it shall be located. Had such a bill become a law last year, the Lake View property could have beeu purchased at a low figure. But, the sub- sequent transfer of that splendid location and buildings, with about 25 acres of land, to a company for permanent occupation and use, probably precludes its being a Normal school site, and we suggest the residence premises now occupied by J. Maloney, embracing something like two acres of ground and lying between tbe Lake View and the central section o f the village. Additional lands, i f required, could be purchased directly west, on the opposite side o f Lake View Avenue, and north o f the Hotel property line. An abundance of good spring water could be piped from elevated fountain heads, to the school buildings, whose verandas would and whose parents or gnardians are unable to procure vaccination fo r toem or fo r _ ,toe- children o f suitable am o f suck parents, as h y reason o f poverty/m ay be vaccinated at the expeiise of said School D istrict by applying to the Board/atid stating cause.
