Court Notes

Logan observer - On FIJI
day the case of Dewell VS. Sny-
der was put on for the third
time. Two juries had disagreed
and again the good men and
true on the jury list was exam
ined to find twelve that could
get together on a verdict, and
they were secured and a ver-
dict was returned in favor of
J. S. Dewell for $66.66 as a
contract was claimed for the
payment of 100000 for the
service rendered. The verdict
is rather an odd one.
The next was one of these
peculiar cases of Iowa known
as a nuisance case. A Mr.. Hes
ley was charged with having
maintained a nuisance in the
town of Persia where liquid
Ibeverager were sold contrary
to the laws of Iowa. The state
failed to prove it's case and the
defendent was discharged.
The story is told of an old
settler in this county many
years ago who took something
stronger than water occasion
ally, that he was called before
the grand jury and questioned
with regard to buying certain
Intoxicating beverages from a
certain party. Yes, he had
bought whiskey of him and
drank it too. He knew it was
whiskey. He had called for
whiskey, paid for whiskey and
he knew he got whiskey. That
old settler lived and died a
respected member of Harrison
county society. He had a fail
ing but it was not lying about
what he bought to drink.

The Logan Observer says
"The Commershal club of Mis-
souri, Valley had a very large
meeting one evening last week.
1t was to consider the matter of
building a railroad up the Will
low to Charter Oak or some 9TH
er point on the Chicago and
Milwaukee road and connect
with the |. G. at Cradle. The
proposed line will traverse a
very fertile valley and will con-
(stitute an important feeder to
the roads connected. There
appears to be a great deal of
earnestness entering into this
proposed railroad. The time is
coming very rapidly when such
valleys as that Of the Willow
will be traversed with branch
lines of railroads, notwithstand-
ing Lne Calk OF gOOQ ROADS, the

sy and quick transportation
must be on a steel rail, the mo-

may be gas; steam is a trifle to

those. Well, come when it will
we will welcome it. Cheap,
quick transportation is the log
ical sequence of the r. F. D.

for the Valleys Commercial
club that it is taking hold of
this matter with so much ener-
gy and earnestness. These quail

Food for the Stock,

Those who have tested the use Of
cooked and uncooked foods for stock,
more particularly for swine, agree that
the unlocked foods are by far the most
digestible. This opinion would delight
the vegetarians who urge uncooked
fruits and vegetables as being more
wholesome. Yet there are two sides TO
the story as usual. There seems to be
no denying the value of the uncoOked
food, with animals at any rate, but we
all know that a quantity of raw fruits
and vegetables eaten By humans during
the summer is apt to create disturb
ance of the digestive organs. Not al
ways does it cause a looseness of the
bowels, but acidity of the stomach,
which is very painful. Is it not fair to
assume that if uncOOked food has this
effect on the human stomach that it
must have some bad effect on the stom-
ach of the farm animal.
This may be little far-fetched, but
experience has taught the writer that
without exception, one warm meal
day during the winter is beneficial to
the animals. Even our horses have a
warm bran mash, and it has been we'll
cooked, too. The poultry have the
warm cooked mash and the hot corn
at night every other day. and thrive
on it. This being our experience, our
argument is that animals should have
cooked food occasionally, but that
most Of their meals should consist of
food not cooked

Agriculture IN Japan.

A report prepared by the American
Consul General at Yokohama gives
some particulars as to agriculture in
Japan. He states that only 14,995,2l2
acres, or 15.T per cent, of the total area
Of the country, exclusive Of Formosa.
are in arabic cultivation. About %
per cent Of the agricultural families
cultivate less than two acres each; SO
per cent, two acres to less than three
and three fourth acres, and 10 per cent.
three and three-fourths acres to more.
1t is not clear whether the small hold
ers have grass land in addition to their
arabic land AS to how families can
be supported on such minute farms, it
is pointed out that the Japanese stand
ard OF living is comparatively low;
that the small farmer usually earns
wages apart from his land, or engages
in some such industry as siik-produc-
ing or spinning; that he cultvates and
manures his land very thoroughly; and
that he often raises two or more crops
In a season on the same land. In the
warmer parts Of Japan, it Is stated,
barley, indigo, beans and rape are
grown in succession on one piece Of
land in twelve months.

they live until spring. when they come
out to feast on the buds, blossoms and
leaves. 1t is at this season Of the
year, and later, while the trees are de-
void Of foliage that the main work to
exterminate them must be done.
While the moth is in winter quar-
tiers he and she can be readily reached.
Obtain a pruning shears mounted on
long handle and operated by wire in
the hands, go through the trees Of the
orchard and anywhere on the grounds
and cut off the twigs on which the

carefully, then gather them, and. after
taking them out Of the orchard. burn
them. Only in this way can one be
certain of their destruction. The plan
of fastening a bunch of cotton waste
to a pole, setting fire to it and holding
the lighted torch to the web until it is
consumed is also a good one. Better
get at this work during the winter and
do it thoroughly.

some idea of this pest. The female

Wire netting can be placed over these
