I'm going far away, Norah, darling,
And leaving such an angel far behind,
1t would break my heart In two
Which fondly gave to you,
And no other one so loving, true ant

Chorus:
Then come to my arms, Eorah, darling
Bid your friends in dear old Ireland
goodbye,
For it's happy you will be in the dear
land Of the free,
Living happy with your Barney Mccoy
No, I won't go with you, Barney darling
And the reason l have told you oft be-

1t would break my mothers heart,
If from her l were to part,
And go roaming with you, Barney Nc

Eut so sure's there's a God that l adore,
And remember what l say,
Till it comes the judgment day,
You will never see your Barney any
more.
I would go with you now, Barney, darl-

If my mother and the rest were only
there.
For l know we would be blest,
In that dear land of the west,
Living happy with you, Barney Mccoy.

Yes, will go with you, Barney, darling,
And the reason l have told you oft be-

For l know we will be blest

Experiment Station at sunnyside.

EXPERIMENT. SIdIIOH dI SunHySIOes
The Sunnyside Sun has gone in for
having an experiment station establish
ed at Sunnyside and conducted under
the auspices of the state college at
Pullman. "Prof. Waller, of the state
college," says the Sun, "has arranged
with w. S. McClain to make some ex-
periments on his place on the duty of
water in the growing of potatoes and
alfalfa. This work is being done at
the expense of the department of agri-
culture, Washington, d. G. 1t has been
inaugurated just now in response to
request from S. J. Harrison that the in
stitutiOn at Pullman give us an expert
mental station. Mr.. Harrison is now
urging the establishment of an extern
sive alfalfa feeding experiment to be
begun at Sunnyside this fall.
"Sunnyside is typical of the largest
area of land that can be put under
irrigation in the state. The first few
doubtedly be alfalfa. 1t is therefore
Of great Importance that all of the
leading questions relating to the grow
ing, harvesting, feeding and marketing
of the staple be definitely and author
itatively settled.
'In fact, there are so many condi-
tons peculiar to an irrigated district
that it certainly would be a wise
thing for the state to establish per-
manently an experiment station at
Sunnyside. There is no doubt but
that our citizens would heartily CO.
operate with the state in such an I'M
dertaking. The interests of irrigation
farming are too great to be left with
out wide and comprehensive system
of experiments under state supervision.
These experiments should be conduct
ed in the midst of the people who can
profit by the results.
There will soon be graduates from
the schools of the Sunnyside country,
who will wish to continue their train
ing through college course. We have
the ideal moral conditions for col
lege. There will be enough boys and
girls in the valley to assure a gen.
erous home patronage. Now is the
time to organize for college,"

where the Hereford is popular and
quite generally used, the ranchman

and turns them on his range is TAX

angus steers if they happen to stray
on to a Hereford range. 1t is not pos
sible to say what breed is best adapt

men have pretty well defined opinions
on the subject themselves but these
are formed under their own cOndi-
lions and environments.

American StockgroWers Association
Denver has so long been the hotbed
of cattle associations that one who has
been on the ground and IL touch with
each organization more or less has had
opportunity to know some Of the inside
facts that have been doing so much to
cause discussions among the officers
and members. In late number of the
Denver Field and Farm the editor sizes
up the situation in the following
words: "The position of the American
Cattle Growers association in rising
above the ashes of the crumbled Natio-
nal reminds us of Luxor occupying the
ruins of the grand city OF Thebes-

Number of Mares to Stallion.
1t is not every owner of stallion
that knows just how many mares his
animal may serve during the season,
from April 1 to July 1, and more Of
ten than not he will permit the stall
lion to serve too many, thereby doing
damage to his own interests and to
the interests of his patrons. To come
down to the simple truth, the number
of mares horse may serve in sea-
son depends on his age and on the
way in which he is fed and hanu.ed.
1t is common practice of companies
who own stations to permit the serv-
ice of approximately hundred, and
in emergencies two, three, or four
day.. This is all wrong. A vigorous
stallion we'll handled might serve
from fifty to sixty, properly distributed
during the season.
We will never get down to the right
basis until farmers having eight or
ten mares buy their own stations,
work them when coming three years
old and limit their services to about
twenty or thirty mares during the sea-
son, giving them light work on the
farm all the time. The farmer can
better afford to pay five hundred dol
lars or more Tor stallion coming

pany which in order to make divi-

MIL WAUKEE ROAD ADOPTS
THE BLOCK SIGNAL SYSTEM
More Miles of Line Operated With This
Protection Than Any Other
Company in America.

The Milwaukee road. known as one
OF the most conservative of the public
carriers. has done much in recent
years in winning the confidence and
patronage of those who travel, but it
never has made greater strike than
the one in which it announces that it
is the first railway in America TO
adopt the absolute block system in the
operation Of its trains.
Today the Milwaukee has more miles
of road operated under block signal
rules than any other railway company.
The fear that the passenger might have
of wreck is dispelled when he knows
that his train has the protection that
is afforded on the Milwaukee lines II
is an innovation that every other com
petitor eventually must adopt. What
the public demands above all is safety
in travelling.
Comforts and cOnvenlences of travel
are attractions. and it should not be
overlooked in stating that the Milwau-
KEGS reputation for providing these
has long ago been established. but
shortcomings in these particulars are
not so apt TO be criticised by the pas
senger when he is assured that he will
be carried safely through to his des-
n railroad can give him
no better assurance than the block
signal system. The Kansas City-Chi-
cago line of the company is equipped
from end to end with these signals.
The St. Paul was the first road to
light its trains by electricity. and it
now has more than four hundred cleo
tric-lighted cars in daily service. This
IS a greater number than operated by
any other company.

BRIDGE BUILDING

In Wayne County and Comparison of
the Prices.
Wooster, o., Oct. 25.-Commissioner
Harrison had the following to say on
the bridge situation in Wayne county:
1T was always claimed that the
prices named In the schedule by the
Canton Bridge Co. were very reasona-
BILE, but | always held that our bridge
building should be done according to
law, that is, our county surveyor should
draw plans and make estimates on all
bridge work, and the work should be
let to competition, SO on five of the
bridges we bought this summer the
law was followed, and here is the re-
suit:
"Eyman bridge, 30-foot span, Canton
schedule, $345, paid 1854, saved $91;
Sweeney bridge, 3S-fot span, Canton
schedule, s475, paid 1921, saved s154;
Geyer Chaple, 22-foot span, Canton
schedule, s242, paid $193, saved $40;

ule s412, paid s219, saved $193; VIM.

saved to county, $624."
