The way the grade for the paving
of Brigham street is being run is
scandal and an outrage on the prop
erty owners. On the north side or
that street the residences are now far
above the level of the sidewalk and
when the new grade is completed they
will be feet or feet higher than
they are now This will damage the
property many thousands of dollars.
Members of the board of public works
assured the property owners that the
very thing which is being done would
not be done There is general out
cry against it. Those on the south
side of the street are being benefited
by the raise in the grade on their
side of the street, but it is at the ex
pense of those on the north side. The
mayor lives on the south side.

General Linevitch is reported as
having kissed all the troops in the
vicinity of his headquarters, from Of
ficers to enlisted men, recently. Re-
port does not say whether it was a
farewell kiss or not, but in view of

An exchange prints the following:
Il. ID. Smith, of Madison, South Da-
kota, has answered the question of
whether a man may become a million
aire honestly. In the last fourteen
years he has added $1,500,00O to his
fortune and every dollar has come
from the soil and still this plain farm
err leads the simple life In the broad
rooms of his home are no plush car.
pets, no reception halls, no dancing
floors, no mahogany furniture. About
the place spread no cleaning lawns,
no spouting fountains, no winding
drives. Instead great barns loom up,
where the echo of tramping horses
sound day and night, with long rows
of hay stacks, and low, spreading
sheds for cattle. To Smith contented
horse is more pleasing than a lap
dog"
Barring the lap dog part of the bust
ness, we should say that Smith is a
chump and doesn't know good thing
when he sees it. A man worth a mil
lion and half who will not have a
lawn in front of the house, with
flowers and fountains, and who prefers
COW sheds and manure piles to things
of beauty must be a hard listed old
ham and it is easy to see how he got
that much coin from farming.
1t will be a mighty good thing for
the city council to take that junket to
Los Angeles, as requested by w. A

made for a stay of at least two weeks

1t is a matter Of evidence. capable Of
easy proof that sheep are more profit
able than any other animal raised on
the farm. There is a double chance to
get money out Of sheep. and they are
more profitable for that reason II for
no other. But there are many reasons
why sheep should be kept on the farm.
They keep down the weeds and con-
tribute to the fertility Of the soil as no
other animals do. Those who own
sheep and understand them would un-
der no circumstances dispense with
them. A small flock is as indispensable
to a well managed farm as the family

Concentrated and stimulating foods
are unsuited to sheep. A very little
corn will do with other grains. says
Farm Journal. Oats are the best sin
gle grain to give sheep either for fat

in good shape to have their lambs and
to suckle them. Corn makes the sheep
feverish. inhames the udders Of the
ewes and makes a big show OF milk.
which is actually Inflammation and
swelling. 1t also makes the lambs weak.
The feverish condition dries the wool,
makes it brittle and checks its growth.
Oats, linseed meal, wheat bran and
roots is the proper ration. The fodder
should be Of good quality. Good straw
with a little more grain is better than
hay Of poor quality.

Sappho's Leap was the name given

ly called Leucadia, now Cape Ducato,
at the southern extremity OF Santa
Maura, one Of the Ionian islands. 1t
