The Split-LOg Drag.

The following is from the Perry
county (Mo.) Republican of January
25:
"Fair tests with the split-log drag,
such as was advocated by D. Ward
King here couple of years ago, has
proven beyond the question of doubt
that they are beneficial to mud roads.
At two places in this county have the
drags been tried and in each case the
results have proven satisfactory be-
yond expectations. Parties searching
for ocular evidence can find it both
on the Aliens landing and Chester
roads. On the Aliens landing road
the overseer, John Hogman, has been
using drag over part Of it for more
than year and the result is where
the drag has been used there is a
good piece of road in all kinds of

FL. A. Castle, for seven years post

am. however, in favor of the pro-
nosition to allow rural mail carriers to
carry and deliver parcels originating
at the postof1ce, town or city, where
the carrier starts, and permitting him
TO deliver big and little packages of
merchandise for a compensation,
which shall be fixed by congress. This,
if adopted, would go long way to-
wards making up the big dificit in the

Capt. Castle is still pushing for the
post check system, whereby the pres
ant antiquated money order system
NAV be superseded by modern bank

Mrs. M. A. Phelps, 2217 Elliott Ave-,

and the miraculous manner in which

So unusual was her experience that
her letter reproduced in part will not

TAXES ARE 4
HUGE FARCE

So ridiculous as to approach the
farcical is the annual "touch" which
State Auditor Iverson makes against
the private car companies doing bust
ness in Minnesota.
The 'touch" represents taxes for
1905, the assessments for which were
fixed by the last state board of equaliz
alton. A state law covering these
private car companies determines
the valuations fixed.
Here are few of the assessments ::
American Cotton Oil company, $40
IS; American Fast Freight Line, $685.
Il; American Refrigerator Transit
Co., $69.47; Armour Car Line COM
pany, $471.42; Arms Palace Horse Car
company, $s6.42; Booth Refrigerator
Car company, 1926; Booth & Co., 500;
Continental Fruit Express company,
S73.43; Cudany, Milwaukee, Refriger-
ator Car company, 1912.
There are dozen other private car
companies doing business in Mime
sofa, but those enumerated are the
principal ones. The ridiculous feature
of it all is the smallness of the tax.
Householders of modest means in st.
Paul and other parts of the state pay
more.
But what makes the whole thing
supremacy farcical is the fact that the
larger the capitol stock of any of the
companies taxed, the smaller the
''touch" the state can make. This is
not the fault of the auditor or the
state board of equalization, but of the
law, which it is impossible to evade.
The American Cotton Oil company,
which is only asked to pay tax OF
$4976 on business done in Minnesota
which undoubtedly reaches in the
millions, is capitalized at 100000
This value divided by the number of
miles travelled by it's cars in the United
States, and with the result multiplied
by the number Of miles covered in
Minnesota is the basis of the assess
ment fixed by the board, but it the
capital stock figure was strictly
adhered to, the tax which this COM
pany would pay the state would be
one-half of $48.76.
Instead, the board takes the market
value of the stock which the concern
declares is only worth 30 cents on the
figure, and it is by this means that the
tax is swelled. AS stated the bigger
the capital stock the less the tax.
The only information the state has
to base it's calculations on is the pri-
vate car companies sworn statements,
made annually. There is no way of
verifying it and the state makes the
best of a bad law by asking and taking
what it can.
An effort was made to have the last
legislature pass law providing for
more equitable method of taxing
these companies but it was throttled
in its infancy by the senate.

weather. We have not learned who
has been using the drag on the Ches-
ter road, but it has been used from
point just beyond Serene to the VIM
set hill and has proven satisfactory.
This is cheap way of making good
roads and it would pay all farmers to
make drag and use it along their
premises, for it would soon place the
road in such a condition that it would
save their horses many hard pull.
The cost of making a drag is very
small, and the time required to use it
will never be missed; in fact, it will
not take near as long as the time
pent in complaining about bad roads
or the time lost in travel on account
of tn EN-. Try it. There's no cheaper
way of making a good road along
y our property"

HILL FOR
BETTER FARMING

The movement for better farming
throughout the American northwest
is taking on big proportions. James
J. Hill lends his powerful assistance to
it by offering generous prizes of
money for the best titled and best
managed farms in Minnesota, North
Dakota and South Dakota. The only
requirement is that farmers who COM
pete for these prizes must keep two
classes of live stock in addition to
their crop farming that is, cattle and
sheep or swine. The judges will visit
the farm and will base their award of
prizes upon the system of rotation Of
crops, character of cultivation, clean
lines of farming, crop yield, and num-
bers and quality of the farms area.
The prizes are divided in such a
manner that every farmer has a
chance at them. Three prizes are
off cred in each congressional district
in Minnesota and for the eastern and
west ern halves of each of the Dakotas.
The first prize is $500 in cash, second
$3.50, third, $75. This makes a total
Of 1926 in cash for each district, or an
aggregate of $685. for this year for
far mers in the three states named. If
the number of entries and interest
taken is sufficient, Mr.. Hill will doubt
less duplicate these prizes each year
for four additional years, making a
total of some $35, 900 in all.
The prizes will be awarded by two
Judges, one of whom will be Prof
Thomas Shaw of St Paul and and the
other shall be chosen within the dis
trict directly by Pres. Hill, or by Prof.
Shaw with his approval. The judging
is to be done between June and
August 1, and entries should be made
as early as possible on forms furnished
free on application to Orange Judd
Farmer, Chicago, Ill.
There are no fees Or dues. Every
far mer may compete. The intelli
gent far mer on a small scale who is
relatively poor has as good a chance
at the prizes as a richer farmer who
operates on bigger scale. To win the
prizes does no necessarily involve
any necessary expense, simply that
the farmer shall farm we'll
A contest in behalf of better seed
and better culture of grains is also
being conducted by Orange Judd
Farmer, with view to adding
millions to the profits for farmers who
grow wheat-corn or oats. It offers
$500 as cash prize for the best work
in 1905 with one acre of wheat, $500
for best work with one acre of corn
and $500 for best work with one acre
of oats-not necessarily the largest
yield, but the best practice in every
detail. It offers $4,000 in all, and
many other prizes are being contrib
uted. There is great interest among
farmers in breeding and using better
seed. From the acre of pure seed
grown in 1906 by each contestant,
there should be enough fine seed
available for planting next year to
forever Danish poor seed from
every farm in the land.

" ooA anger mere, WlUulu d.
foreign land,
Ny home is far away upon golden
strand:
Ambassador to be of realms beyond
the sea,
I'm here on business for my king.
Chorus
This is the message that bring
A message angels fair would sing;
~, be We reconciled," thus saith my
Lord and King,
so, be We reconciled to God"
This is the Kings command, that all
men everywhere,
Repent and turn away, from sins Sc
ductive snare;
That all who will obey, with Him shall
reign for aye,
And that's my business for my King.
My home is brighter far than Sharon's
rosy plain,
Eternal life and joy thruout its vast
domain;
My sovereign bids me tell how mortals
there may dwell,
And that's my business for my King"
A close second in popularity is the
famous "Glory Song" Of which more
than million copies have been issued.
We note however that Charles Cullen
Smith uses literally the solid old
hymns of all past ages. Whether COM
posed by Greek fathers, or by Latin
saints, Or by Luther, Or Wesley Or
Alexander, these metrical iturgies of
Christian people breathe the same
Spirit, and are proof of the spiritual
unity of the church.
A full chorus really does make de-
lightful music. 1t reminds one of the
old song when
"The music upward rolled
Till we thought we saw the angels
And heard the harps of gold"
We listen with delight and some of
us with tears as we think of the same
songs sung long ago by dear voices
now hushed on earth forever.
In the civil war time, one Sunday
afternoon the bands of the two armies
encamped on either side of the Poto-
mac had quite a tournament. The
northern bands played "Yankee
Doodle" the southern "The Bonnie
Blue Flag" The northern played
"Star Spangled Banner" and the
southern played "Dixie." The nor
them played "Hail Columbia" and
the southern "My Maryland" Then
a band struck "Sweet Home" and al
most Immediately all the bands on
both sides were playing "Sweet
Home" while great sob shook both
armies; for they were tired of war,
weary of blood and wounds and death,
and Ionged to see the dear faces at
home. Many people are getting tired
of profanity and drunkenness, and
lust, and fraud, and bitter disappoint-
ment. Sing chorus. Make them
homesick for Heaven; for His word
of truth, and for purity, and for pray
err, and for divine sympathy, and for
the blessed hereafter. Angels of
song, voice the ''glad tldings of great
joy" Sing for the heart broken
mother
"Where is my wandering boy to-
night
The child of my love and prayers?"
Sing the penitent's prayer
Glowing Saviour hear my cry, 0 save
me at the cross"
Sing conse Grafton.
"My life, my love [ give to thee, thou
lamb of God who died for me-"
Sing till the millions of earth catch
the song of paradise, and join in
"Jesus the name high over all.'
Sing with the Christian warrior
''Thy saints in all this glorious war
shall conquer though they de-"
Sing when yo ur friends die.
con the banks beyond the river we

Sing when we are dying.
"When round my dying bed assemble
