The time to use the split log drag
is when the roads are well puddled
after a heavy rain. By going over
the road with the drag slowly on one
side and back on the other the sur
face of the road is made smooth and a
coating is placed on it which the
travel packs. Continual dragging
after each rain adds to this coating
and in time the surface will become
SO hard as to be broken with great
difficulty The black land roads of
Texas can be worked by this method
to advantage and every farmer ought
TO have a split log drag and for his
own interest use it after every hard

While the Herald sees fit at times
TO differ with the opinions of members
of the city council, it none the less
feels good over the fact that we have
a council board that has opinions and
is not afraid to stand by them. A
council composed of such men is cal
culated TO do more good than one that
could be moulded and handled TO vote
as some one head dictates.

KEEP A FAMILY RECORD.
Dfhc,It Often Even with 1t to Prove

D1ms>ut OFTEN Even with 1t to Prove
Ones Identity.
ParaSSxical as it may seem, the
most difhcult thing to prove In court Is
who you arN, says the New York World
1t is Simple matter If you have still
living plenty Of relatives of an older
generation, but suppose your parents
and uncles and aunts are dead, 1t be-
comes well nigh impossible. AS a mat
ter of fact, your knowledge Of your
Identity Is absolutely hearsay. You
know your father and mother called
you their son, and to that fact you may
testify If the question of your identity
should ever come before a judge and
jury. But the testimony goes before
the jury with the warning from the
judge that it Is only hearsay, for you
have no personal knowledge OF the
MATTER.
Official town or parish records are
valuable, but by no means conclusive
Suppose you are John Smith, son of
Robert and Mary Smith, born at Al
bany, on Aug. 1, 1885. The records Of
births in the bureau of vital: statistics
at Albany will prove that a son named
John, was born to Robert and Mary
Smith on that date the register of the
church may prove that John, son Of
Robert and Mary Smith, was baptized
on certain date, but they do not prove
that you are John Smith of whom
these are records.
To establish the connection between
you and the person mentioned In tho
records, In other words, to prove your
own Identity, Is the difficulty. II your
mother Is alive, she can do it; If any
relative who has known you since you
were born Is alive he can do it.

In view of the steady development

As to the public schools of Birming-
ham and the outlying towns, they are
well organized and the principals and
teachers are exceptionally well equip

board of education is noted for its pro-
gressiye policy and breadth of view
and it is safe to say that no city of

Ohio has better school system. The

Packers Recoupinu Losses.

The big trusts strictly speaking are
always on Easy street because they
know that as soon as the storm clouds
pass by they can proceed TO collect all
deficiencies from the victims of their
respective monopoly That is what the
meat trust is doing. Prices of cattel
and hogs on the hoof are declining
both in Chicago and Kansas City. but
the packers are advancing the prices
of beef and pork. A greater corn crop
is rapidly becoming assured, but
cheaper corn does not affect monop-
oIies whose grip on consumers cannot
be shaken off.
How far the packers can carry the
twin movements they have inaugurated
remains to be seen. They are forcing
down prices on the hoof while they are
forcing up prices for dressed products.
The entire business is fine illustra-

FLIES SPREAD TYPHOID.
Agricultural Department Suggests Plan
to Extermlnate Pests.
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post
Flans are being formulated in the de-
partment of agriculture TO prevent an
increase in the number of typhoid fever
cases in this city. with the hope of bring
ing these plans to an early consummation,
Professor Hayes. the Assistant Secretary
of Agriculture, called upon Commissioner
West yesterday at the district building
1t has been aseertained- by scientists in
the agricultural department that the
spread Of the malady Is largely due to
the common fly. which carries the germs
from one place to another
Careful examination has determined that
one Of the most prolific breeding places
for flies is the refuse from stables II
this is allowed to remain around for any
time, it becomes infested with flies that
deposit their eggs on it. These deposits
soon hatch and send many more flies
abroad to carry on the work of spreading
the typhoid germs
Professor Hays errand at the district
building was to obtain the cooperation
of Commissioner West in abolishing this
SN'' AHe "epaI 1ihehi authorities are Oh
the opinion that If the refuse can be re-
moved from the stable very soon after its
deposit the danger OF flies breeding
would be obviated.
A rigid police inspection of stables
would, in their opinion, bring about
cleaner stables, and the timely removal
of the refuse would put an end to much
of the danger which now exists in the
spreading of typhoid
