force, and on pleasant days takes pos
session of the highways, running the
limit of speed regardless OF the rights
of all the rest of human and animal
kind
On last Sunday the main Travelled
road from Seattle to Tacoma was
crowded with automobiles of all kinds,
and they created a reign of terror all
along the route, frightening teams,
causing runaways and imperiling the
lives of everyone who happened to be
travelling. The majority of the drivers
of these machines seem possessed
with a crazy desire to run at the top
most speed, whiZzing around curves,
running up and down the roads, and
acting as though no one else had any
right to be on the highways, and II
they were it was at their own risk.
There should be a state law giving
the farmers of a district like the
White River Valley the privilege OF
calling out a deputy sheriff armed
with authority to arrest reckless auto
mobile drivers, and if they refuse to
stop on demand, bring them down
with his gun. In fact. if some such pro-
lection is not afforded it would not
be surprising to hear of the residents
of that district taking the matter into
their own hands, and should fatality
be the result of any of the runaways
caused by these machines it is not
unlikely that lynching would be the
result.

Practical Crop Discussions Wanted.

The letter appended below was re-
ceived at the Office of The Ranch a
few days ago:
Washington, d. c., May 1, 1905
Editor of The Ranch, Seattle, Wash.
L should like very much to see a dis
cussiOn in your pages of the cropping
systems used on dairy farms in western
Washington. The experience of such
men as Blanchard, lett, Sexton, and
many others whom l could mention, if
made available to others, could not fail
to be of great value. 1 take this method
of requesting these gentlemen and any
one else who may feel it his duty to
do so to give US in the columns of The
Ranch a statement of the crops they
grow, the acreage of each, the rotation
of crops, the dates of planting and har-
vesting, and the yields. Tell us also
how many stock they feed, and how
much and what kinds of feed they buy
Questions of this character arise on
practically every farm, every year; and
the experience of men who have made
success of dairy farming will be useful
to all of us. Very truly yours,
w. j. SPILLMAN.
u. S. Department of Agriculture.
The Ranch is heartily in accord with
the suggestions contained in Mr.. Spill
mans letter, and our columns are
open at all times to articles from just
such men as he names. Now, gen
