the Cutieura Remedies her feet and limbs
were covered with running sores. In

Breeders Attention.

Breeders, it is about time for you
to begin to think about the kind OF
horses you are going to raise the
coming year. That big draft horse
you sold TO the shipper brought the
best price you ever got for a horse
and il cost no more TO raise him than
il did that lighter one which the shipp-
err offered to buy for twO-thirdS the
price for the draft. The draft horse
is reliable when it comes TO pulling
loads and bringing good prices. Then
why not raise more of them? NV
stud for the coming year consists Of
imported draft horses and nothing
else. In selecting my stations | have
been careful to select the very best
on the market and horses of good
weight, plenty of life, and all are
good individuals. My stud for the
coming year consists Of two BelgianS
and one PercherOn-NOrman.
OF the Belgians, RaStquOnere is
well known to the breeders of this
place. His color is cherry bay,
weight over 1900 lbs, is eight years
old, has heavy bone, straight legs,
good build, and is Of gentle DISPOSE
ton. He is the sire Of some of the
best colts in the vicinity. RastquOn-
ere will make the season of 1906 at
the Farmers Home Barn at Audubon,
Iowa. Terms, $l5 to insure colt to
stand and suck.
The Belgian stallion, Confidence"
is of a light bay color, weighs 1850
lbs, is eight years old, has plenty Of
life, good style and is a good indi-
vidual and gets some No. colts. He
will be at Frank Hopley's east of
Hamlin Station, from Monday noon
until Tuesday noon, from Tuesday
noon until Wednesday night in the
vicinity of Old Hamlin, the rest of
the week at the same place as Rast-
quonere. Terms, $l2 to insure colt
to stand and suck.
The PercherOn-Norman, German
do" was imported last October by
Hart Bros. of Osceola, Iowa. His
color is jet black, weighs about 1850,
will be three years old in May, has
good style, has good straight legs
with large fat bone and has plenty
of life. Fernando will stand during
the coming season at the same place
as Rastquonere and at the same terms.
Disposal of the mare or remOv al
from the county will make fee due
and collectible at once.

For County Supervisor.
To the editor of the Republican.

To the editor of the Republican.
The undersigned hereby announces
himself as candidate for the Office
of county supervisor, subject to the
decision of the Republican primaries
of Audubon county. Believing that
some change should be made, more
especially in regard to our county
bridges, | have advocated for the
last twenty years that we should have
made a.start to build steel bridges.
| understand that Audubon county is
the only county within the border of
this state that does not have a steel
bridge and | believe that the time has
now arrived when it can be postponed
no longer and we must build some
permanent bridges on our larger
streams. The public interests de-
maud such improvements. | have
Investigated this matter to some eX-
tent and find that it will cost about
SlS. 90 per foot for steel spans from 80
to 20 feet in length with tubular piers;
"a to SO foot spans with steel joists
and steel foundations, $500 per foot.
These bridges are estimated TO carry
20 tons.
A steel span across a stream with
WOOUtll approaches COSGS dDOuG VII &C
times as much as a wooden bridge, il
it is true, as | understand it is, that
we are paying $5.05 per foot for wood.
en- bridges. An all steel bridge will
last as long as five, or six, wooden
bridges. Creek banks do not wash
out where they are spanned by steel
bridges as they do where piles are
driven in the channel of the stream to
catch debris, ice and trash as il
floats down. History tells us that the
per cent of washOuts and break-downs
with steel bridges compared with
wooden bridges is about TO 20. There
are number of steel bridges on the
Nishna Botna in Montgomery county
that we're built over forty years ago.
Believing this TO be a good bust
ness proposition for the tax payers
of this county submit it to the people
of Audubon county believing that we
ought to make a beginning in this
matter by building steel bridges on
our larger streams as the public inter
ests may demand. If the foregoing
meets with the appreciation of the
people | would consider myself pledged
thereto and work for the same TO the
best of my ability.
Respectfully Submitted,
THOMAS Law.

Made a Settlement.

The Board of Supervisors have CON
Guided a settlement with Mrs. S. II.
White whose husband was killed in
the bridge disaster a few wsekS ago.
The preliminaries we're arranged be-
tween the parties some time in March
but official action could not be taken
until the board met in regular session
this week. There seems to have been
no question as to the liability of the
county nor the justice of making prop
err reparatOn so far as could be done
in q financial way for the death of Mr..
White. The two principal things that
form a basis on which to determine
the amount Of damage are the ability
to earn and the expectancy Of life of
the deceased. After a discussion pro
and con at several meetings, the board
finally agreed to pay Mrs. White
$4,000 in cash, settle the funeral eX.
penses and pay the amount necessary
to get the engine out of the ditch,
making in all about $3.50. The
amount seems to be reasonable on
both sides and the board are to be
commended for making such a fair
and iudiciOuS settlement.
