road fever aud coyote bounty fever
combined, in its most malignant
form. The taxpayers Of this end
of the county respectfully ask our
county court to reconsider these
new regulations and place the II
mill tax lexy for coyote bounty
with our school fund. Let the
county court increase our school
fund so we will not be compelled
to send our children to schools in
other counties. 1t would also en-
able the children of our poorer
neighbors, who are not able to pay
rate bills, to receive at least three
months schooling every year, There
are several school districts in this
county where the people can't have
three months term on account of
lack of funds. This great draw
back tour poor school facilities) is
the main cause of this county los
ing so many good citizens, who are
compelled to leave here to educate
their children. 1t also keeps our
county from settling up faster.
In the matter of education our
county board seems to take but
little interest A 4-mill tax, which
the law compels them to levy, is
levied, but that is all. We havn't
heard Of a county in the state that
leyies so small a tax for school
purposes as Gillian county does.
But Gillian county takes the
lead in offering a large bounty on
coyote scalps, at the expense Of its
taxpayers, for the benefit or a very
few sheep owners. In placing this
coyote bounty tax with our school
fund it will also enable the several
districts to employ the best teach
ers, thereby improving our schools
greatly and this will induce our
people to stay and educate their
children here.
All the taxpayers in this end Of
the county object very much to the
levying of a tax for a coyote boun-
ty, but are perfectly satisfied to
pay a tax for school purposes. For
this reason we would like to see the
II mill tax added to our school
fund.
On Nov. Sd we got up a petition
asking our county court to stop
paying bounty on coyote scalps.
As we never heard Of it, it must
have been lost. 1t seems to us
rather strange that our county
court, after the experience Of last
summer, 1--WE refer to the backward
ness Of our sheepmen 10 paying
their share of the bounty should
again levy a tax for a coyote boun-
ty. AS long as our neighboring
counties refuse to offer a bounty it
is useless to undertake to EXTERN
mate the coyote, as they keep COM
ing in by droves. Furthermore,
we think it unfair to be taxed con-
tinually for the benefit of the few
sheepmen and have our schools
neglected on the strength of it.
Some sheepmen even object to this
tax. They say that if all sheep
owners furnished their herders with
guns and cartridges to enable the
herders to shoot coyotes they would
not be bothered much. The trouble
is, most sheep owners expect the
herders to furnish their own guns
and ammunition and the herders
Justly refuse to do this.
If our Sheepmen's Union must
have bounty on coyote scalps, let
them tax themselves sufficiently to
pay such bounty. The taxpayers
are getting tired Of being taxed for
the benefit of probably a hundred
sheepmen. H. II.

Sleep is natures great restorer, and
nothing takes its place. Some persons
need more sleep than others, and this
can be determined by the following
simple rule: The normal pulse is plac-
ed at 70; dividing this by nine we have
as the normal standard of sleep. Take
the pulse of the person, divide it by
9, and the result will show the number
of hours sleep necessary.
