AND DOES 1T

Attorney General Jackson seems
to understand thEt it is his dTty to
see chat the laws ,af the state ane en-
forced. he takes different view
of paublic office from what many
do. It has always been our idea
that this law can be reasonably Well
enforced if the officers whose dGty
il is to enforce it woflld simply do
their SWORN dutg.
The Lac in this county is violated
in many places every day, yet our
officers who have taken an oath Il
enforce 1t, appeae not to know o
the violation. Some of these day
they are liable TO receive a notice
s;uilar to the one sent to certain
officers in Leaveuworth County.
Attorney General Jackson is in earn

A TRIP IN THE COUNTRY

Sunday afternoon the editor and
better half took a drive irto e
country south east of the city, for
recreation and observation. We
found that the farmers, amidst all
the rush of spring work, have found
time to work the roads, or have it
done, and we found them almost
universally in good condition, gen
orally the bitches we're cleaned ou,
and the road rounded up to the
center and left in a nice smooth
condition.
We found the newly worked road
Ia so much better shape thaa under
the old system where a few ,scraPer's
full of dirt we're simply scraped into
ehe track and left in piles.
Crop conditions are uot brilliant
for the time of year. We saw nc
wheat, but found the oats very poor,
scarcely worth cutting We noticed
some corn that had been planted
early and left stand, 1t does moi
have healthy color, and is not a
perfect stand. Yhe warm weather
will bring it out and give it the rich
green 50 m@oh desired. Most OF
the corn has been planted over and
is coming up nicely. The late
planted corn came up well and has
fine alealthy hook. The ground il
in splendid ocadition and geaerally
clear of weeds
We cal ied,ou Bob Phelps, ON nhs
old Stone farm, and walked ovel
his corn grouad. Bob has done
lot of good hard work this spring
and has most of his crop i'm ifics
clsss shape. BY the way, the frs
thing you @,now Bob Pheeps will be
pointed out as one OF the mode
faoners of the country de is using
mat}ern methods aud is up to date
ia his style.ae farming
There rs really no excuse 'for the
blues vet, corn is small for the time
of year, but che ground is I'm prime
condition, we'll pulverze ed end full
of moisture.
Gienty of rain in July and Kagust
will make Of che late planted corn

feeling that~e are goiOg to have

it befi owes the farmer to asse2 the
grornd well worked while he'can
The crop-~tll be all the ibosier fol-
it, wst or dry. Then If excessive
rains come the clean corn will fare
mnch better than that whde the
weeds have been allowed to get q
start.
