at 5000 O mile. Last year It was
$3.50. Mackay. of Holmes, moved, to
amend by making 1t $4,000. It was
then amended to $4,000. The situation
began to get mixed and there were
signs of a storm. Some of the audit
ors thought that the difference between
two lines running side by side over
the same road bed was too great. II
was urged on the other hand that the
earning capacity and the original road
bed was considered in thte first ap-
praisement of $2S,000 a mile. A rep
resentative of the company was pres
ent and he stated that $4,000 was more
than the cost of the additional track.
The original motions and the amend
ments were withdrawn and the way was
supposed to be open for a new $1,000
motion. Before It could be made, Aud
itor Eeltz sprung another $4,000 mo-
ton. This was lost. Auditor Reed
and five other auditors voted against
1t. On the motion to make the ap-
praisement $4,000 there were ayes
and four noes. Those voting no were
the auditors from Van Vert, Allen,
Holmes and Richland.
The side tracks were then taken up.
They were increased from SO, 500 to $4,-
900 a mile. This vote was unanimous.
Machinery, ETC., was appraised in a
lump at $15,110. This is in the shops
at Alliance and Crestline. The build
ings along the line were appraised at
$259,67O; stations, s53,232; tools, etc,
S470 a mile. There were slight in
creases in all these minor matters, and
w. r. Mckay, who represented the
company, stated that the total increase
in the state over last year would be
S6O5,S9O. The total valuation $11, $685.

by Good Roads Is Large and
Positive.

The cause of road improvement will
undoubtedly receive a great impetus
by the recent meeting of the National
Good Roads association at Buffalo,
where object lessons were given on
the exposition grounds, of the latest
and best methods of making high
ways. What the average American
. farmer needs to be thoroughly con-
WINGED of is, that good roads, in the
long run, are much cheaper than bad
roads, even though the first cost of
construction may add somewhat to his
taxes.
1t has been the prospect of increased
taxes that has caused the rural dis
tricts of New York state, for example,
to solidly oppose all plans for road
improvement in the past, involving iia-
creased appropriations Of public
funds. They have preferred to stand
by the old, wretched and inadequate
"working-out" system because it
seemed to be the cheapest and easiest.
Considering how profitless the farm
ing business has been in many parts
of the country for years, it is not
strange that the farmers should wish
to avoid any added drains upon their
resources, but when it is clearly dem
onstrated, as it can be, that new and
improved systems of road-making
actually add to the value of farms and
the profits of agriculture, the case will
be different.
Figures bearing on these very points
have been published repeatedly, show
ing that the increase of carrying ca
pacity made possible by good roads,
and the decrease in the wear and tear
of horses and vehicles, far more than
offset the enlarged expenditure called
for by the Improvements. The gain
in actual cash values is large, positive,
and beyond all question. And beyond
all are the added pleasure and salts
faction of riding and driving over
smooth, well-kept roads-a gain which
money cannot measure or express

SELECTING SEED CORN.
The Much-MOoted Question of Saving
the Entire Ear Again a Subject
of Discussion.

I would like to say a few words in
regard to selecting seed corn of which
much has been written of late In
watching the articles of the different
contributors, l find that they are
about equally divided in opinion as
regards nubbing or not nubbing the
ear of seed corn. To those who advo-
cate nubbing, claiming that it has no
Disadvantages, l will say you are bad
ly mistaken, and to the no-nubbing
advocates there is this disadvantage,
the small grains on the tip and the
large ones on the butt end of the ear
mixed with the smaller grains causes
the planter to drop irregular. But this
can be overcome in year if picking
the seed has been rightly done. 1
practiced nubbing my seed corn for
either end. Some four years ago 1
abandoned this practice, and in the
spring when selecting for seed picked
out the ears that were nearest filled
out on both ends and with an average
grain all over the ear. The following
fall picked our seed corn while husk-
ing and in this way had the pick of
the whole crop and secured the ears
that were completely filled out at
both ends. This year on examining
the ears we find nearly half the ears
filed out over both ends. I think the
foregoing enough to convince all that
nubbing seed corn is injurious to the
seed, and to the farmers who are in
the habit of nubbing their corn let
me advise them to at once stop the
practice, and enjoin upon them undue
carefulness in selecting their seed.
especially their seed corn.-Prairie

Horse Meat in vienna.

The price of horse meat ranges, per
pound of fore quarter, from S to 8
cents; hind quarter, 6 to 9 cents;
choice cuts for steak and roast, from
to IL cents; the same cuts in beef
averaging from 20 to "a cents a
pound The horse meat is also worked
up into sausages, and as such sells t
correspondingly low prices. The
horse-meat butcher shops, of which
there are now no less than 1876 in this
city, present clean and attractive ap-
pearance, and are in no way distin-
guishable from the shops where the
usual kinds of meat are sold, save by
the sign announcing their speciality.
Restaurant keepers who serve horse
meat must designate this fact in spe.
cial column on the bill of fare offered
to patrons.-Vienna Letter.

FARM WATER SUPPLY.
Unique System Adopted by a Man Who
Could Not Afford n Wind
mill and Tank

Father did not like to pump water
for stock and could not afford wind
mill and tank. He dug a well 200
yards from the house, and the bot
tom of the we'll was considerably
higher than the house, and the house
was IS or 90 feet higher than the
ground at the barn. A pipe was let
into the well which nearly reached
the bottom. the open end being pro-
tected by wire screen, covered, so
no mice or foreign substances could
obstruct the flow of water. A trench
was dug few feet deep and the
pipe laid from the well to a pump
some 20 feet away. This pipe was
connected with the perpendicular
pipe in the well by round elbow.
The pump was some three feet be-

The English Lime Tree.

The lime tree of England is the COM
mon European linden, which is closely
allied to our native linden tree, which
is also called Eastwood, and is found
in most of the central and northern
states in the native forests. The Eu-
ropean linden is smaller leaf and has
a more dense top, making it very nice
al a shade tree. 1t is not so robust
in its habit of growth as our native
species. Among the varieties of the
apple that have very widespreading
and rather dropping branches are the
Winesap, Minkler, Willow and Tolman
Sweet. These varie ties will all do very
well in the central and western states.

should be bolted on, this being not

under side, so as to catch on the
post. A hole should then be bored
about two inches from each end OF

through. which should always be
looped on the end and held in place

thus be obtained that will enable the

low the top of the well, which was
IS feet deep. A short pipe, a foot
long, was laid from the main pipe,
and a round elbow connected it with
a small iron pump. Near the pump
was screw in the short pipe to shut
off or turn on the water from the
well. On the main pipe, just beyond
the place where the short pipe was
Joined, and below, was another
screw.
Halfway down to the barn was
a perpendicular pipe about three feet
high and furnished with faucet. Be-
low this the pipe was fitted into a
short plank board the size of the
pipe, with one one-half-inch hole
bored down into the passage and
some three inches below small hole,
each fitted with a plug. These, with
the faucet, were for the escape of
air. When ready to start the water,
the faucets at the house and water
trough were closed large, strong
barrel furnished a tank for the house.
Then the two plugs were removed
from the block of wood near the fau-
Get, midway to the well, the faucet
opened and they were ready. The
screws at the pump must be in per-
feet order and not a bubble of air
be allowed to enter the pipe any
where but where indicated. The
screw next the pump must be opened
to let water flow from the we'll
through the pump, and the screw in
the main pipe just below the short
pipe to the pump must be tightly
closed.
To start, pour water in the pump,
half-bucketful, say, and hold the
hand over the nose of the pipe and
pump. In a short time the water
will flow readily from the well, but
let it come freely SO the pipe is full,
then lower the handle to the pump.
close the screw at the foot in the
short pipe, open quickly the screw in
the main pipe and if your pipe is not
laid too deep you will hear the water
gurgling away down the hill to the
barn. Now go to the block and
faucet. The water is forcing out the
air, and in a short time you will
see it running through the block on
it's way down to the barn. Wait I'M
til the pipe is full, which you may
know by the water overlooking from
the air holes in the block. Then put
in the large plug, then the small one,
then close the faucet, and your sy-
phon will draw water as long as
there is any in the well. or break
in the pipe lets in air. When you do
not want it to run, close the faucets
at barrel and trough.
We have had water run for months
without starting anew, but when wa
ter is low, as it often is in our long,
rainless summer, we have to start it
as often as it stops running. The
pipe must, of course, be protected
from frost, but that is no difficult
matter here, where ice is seldom
SEEN We have had this well in OPP
Grafton since 'S4. The side well is
connected by a screw and joint below
the faucet. By starting the water
when the pipes are full and the screw
open to the side well, the water from
the main we'll will back up there and
fill it. Of course such things must
be watched.-Mrs. L. r. Littlejohn, in
