Electric Lights for DodgevIlle.

The council at its netting last
Tuesday evening had under consider
alton the question of putting in 2
system of electric lights. One porp-
osition was submitted to furnish
lights by private enterprise, the city
to pay for each light according to its
power, and the contractor to have the
use of the city power house. boiler
and other facilities owned by the CITY
that could be utilized in the produc-
ton of the lights. and in return for
the use of the city property to do the
pumping for the water works.
This proposition was favorably con-
sidered by the council. but in order to
arrive at more extensive and definite
details, it was ordered that the con
tract for lighting the city be let to
the lowest bidder, and a committee
was appointed to prepare specifica-
tions and advertise for bids. 1t APP

Pursuant 20 previous instructions the
council called citizens meeting,
which was held at the court house
Tuesday evening, at which meeting
the council, by unanimous vote, recon-
mended that the proposition of Dexter,
Mcdonald n Co. he accepted. The
proposition referred to is substantially
as follows
To furnish six arc lights OF 220O
candle-power, (for Main Street, at a
cost of sos each per annum. and as
many incandescent lights of 30 CANDLE
power as the city requires at an an
nual cost OF SIS each. Also 10 pump
the water for the city at a cost of
$500 per annuin, the city to lay pipe
from the well to the power house and
furnish the pump. A careful estimate
fixes the number of incandescent
lights required for lighting the city
at 81, in additio to the six arc lights
before mentioned. This would make
an annual cost for lights of nearly
$500, which would be reduced to
less than $1,000 by the saving in the
cost Of pumping water, which annual
cost has heretofore been about $1,000.
Should the city decide to use mean
descent lights on Main Street. the
cost would be about $IS5 per year
less. The cost of individual lights of
l6 candle power for indoor use will
not exceed 60 cents per month eaeh

A believer in Few Crops.

grow a half dozen different kinds OF

the necessity Of expanding money at

these supplies, and require only half as

The little side crops take so much val

and those who grow these supplies as
field crops on soil and with tools adapt
ed to their culture, can sell us what we
need far more cheaply than we can
grow them.
believe that very few kinds OF
crops are enough for one farm, says q
writer. Modern tillage requires many
costly tools, and 1t is better to push O
few paying crops than to fritter away
time on numberless patches. BY so do
ing there Is less danger of neglecting
anything, and there is more net profit
at the end Of the year. Some side crops
may be raised because they pay In cash,
but the planting of everything with the
idea that the farmer must pay out no
money for anything Is a relic Of by
gone era that will never return.
