CEMENT WALKS FOR
MINERAL. POINT.

4 cement sidewalk and awater table
of the same material have been laid
along the north side of High street
from the southeast corner OF the city
hall square clear up to the postofiice
building. 1t is of good work and such
as is wanted for the sidewalks and
curbs of Mineral Point. Some are in
clined to think, however, that one dan
ger threatens 1.-THE result of which
cannot yet be foreseen, Frost-cracks
are feared. In preparing the founda-
tion for the cement precautions have
been taken which it is hoped will pre-
vent the harmful action OF frost; and if
this venture, which has been made on
large scale, proves successful, many
more such sidewalks will be laid next
year. OF course other towns have
solved the problem of laying these
walks in such manner that the frost
will not harm them, but it is feared
that what will answer for towns like
Madison, GAINESVILLE and other places,
may not work we'll in Iowa county.
Here, between the lime stone and the
rich top soil, is a clay subsoil which
is almost impervious to water. This
clay holds the moisture close to the
surface and from it springs up the rich
blue grass so early in the spring
While it is desirable to have grass
come up, it is also very desirable to
have walks lie down. In justice to the
contractor for this last piece of work
it may be said that he has to his cred

Dear Sh>-Most painters insist that

but they also insists that 1t needs

Which is true; and better that
lasts six years, Lead and oil lasts
three; Dovoe Paint Paint lasts six.
Whom y paint begins to let In water
then Is the time to repaint, 1t may be
one years 1t may be ten, Lead and
oil lasts three, II we'll put on; lead

been threshing report light yield OF
oats. The crop is running from twen'
ty-fye TO thirty.iiye bushels an acre
and the quality is inferior. The oats
are so light that they fan away with
the char. The shortage in the crop is
due TO rust which killed the oats so
that instead OF having week or ten
days In which to ripcn the crop ripened
