A little mild reasoning accomplishes
more than months of loud talk and law
suits. The amicable settlement of the
water ditch controversy between the
city and John Protheroe is an instance
worth citing. There were those who
favored plunging headlong into a law
suit without even talking the matter
over with Mr.. Protheroe, but the Mayor
and Council were cooler headed and
went to Mr.. Protheroe, reasoned with
him and there was no trouble in arriv.
ing at an understanding.

quality. The intention of those who
have charge of that experiment is to I'M.
port certain number of Coach and

the new type Of horse that is to be will
be a rOss.bred animal. Mr.. w. A.

with this plan in the current issue of

points out the unsatisfactory results

breeds, and claims that there is to be
found among standard horses today the
exact type Of the animal sought for in
this experiment. The many good
things that are appearing from week to
