est. 1t will not take the place of the
grader in making the road in the first
place, nor will it take the place of tho
side ditch which carries off the water,
nor will it do in any undraiued land.
It is not everything in road-mahing,
but for the maintenance of the Yoad
after it has once been put in shape it
excels every other implement ever yet
invented.
If farmers don't take hold of this
road drag it will not be many years
before an attempt will be made to
levy on them the expense of making
macadamized roads, about three to
five thousand dollars per mile, and
these macadamized roads will cost
more to maintain them than it will to
make and maintain a good dirt road
with the materials and tools they have
on hand.

team used should be the heaviest,
slowest-moving team on the farm.
The use of this will in the first place
smooth the roads down, filling up the
holes, taking off the bumps, and drag
ging little dirt to the middle of the
road. In the second place it will allow
the winds to blow over it and the sun
to shine on 1t; and the dragged road
will be dry day or two, and, if it has
many ruts in it, sometimes week, be-
fore the undragged will be dry.
Do not, however, expect the drag to
do any good in sand or in muck, or
where there are stones in the road or
stnmps or much grass, or where the
water stands in the bitches on either
side. The road drag, declares Wal

A Russian journal tells the story Of
how the murderer of Gen. Lunnitz,
prefect of st. Petersburg, obtained ad-
mission to the semi-official party at
which the deed was committed. After
the crime all the guests were detained
and their tickets were examined.
There was one ticket the rigthful
owner of which was not present. 1t
was no other than that of Premier
Stolypin himself. The murder had
been committed under cover of the in

Once more we take up our parable
and insist on farmers making prep
arations to make the best possible
roads they can out of the material at
hand, which is just plain dirt, and
the more clay IN 1t the better.
Farmers are fooling away the great
bulk of their road taxes every year
by not using drag. The road drag
may be made out of any light wood
pine, cedar, cottonwood, soft maple,
box elder. II post or log is used it
should be seven feet long, about six or
eight inches thick, sawed in two
lengthwise, the two pieces put split
side foremost about three and a half
feet apart, held together by pieces of
hard wood or steel rods. A log chain
should be attached to the front and
the team hitched to 1t in such a way
that the drag is drawn at an angle of
45 degrees. The drag should be drawn
up one side of the road and down the
other when the roads are soft. The

LOW DOWN WAGONS.
It VIII Prove Most Handy Wagon
on the Farm.

say that it is rightly named by being
called handy wagon, writes a corre-
spondent of Orange Judd Farmer. 1
would not do without one for twice
the price of it if l could not get an
other one. OF course there is a great
difference in different makes, as well
as In any other thing.
AS own manure spreader I never
vuse my wagon for that purpose, but /
always keep the rack on it. For hay
ing, threshfng or shredding they can
not be beaten as the pitchers would
tell you, for when my wagon comes to
the field they all want to pitch for me.
AS to draft, we'll they do draw lit
tie harder in some places. Take a
gravel road, the wide tires strike more
stones than narrow tire, and low
wheel is harder to roll over a stone
than high, which any sensible man
can see, but In the field can pull my
load easier.
The tires on my wagon are four
inches wide and can get over the
soft ground better than / ever did be-
fore had it.
In short, the handy wagon is all
right II you have the right kind. but
some of my neighbors have low
wheeled wagons which team OF
horses can hardly move when not
loaded.

The sons of men rule the world, but
the daughters of men govern it
through them. 1t is woman who founds
society in its artificial aspects. 1t is
woman who creates class distinctions

social ambition that inevitably brings
in its train the restless fever of ac-

try. For my own part 1 am entirely
satisfied with the progress have
made since coming here. have raised
excellent crops of grain of all varie-
ties. Last season my wheat averaged
23 bushels of wheat to the acre, oats
60 and barley 40.
We had splendid garden this year,
ripening successfully tomatoes, musk
melons, water melons, sweet corn and

| wheat growing and mixed farming, and
to my mind it is the best country un-

man to commence farming opera

required in the older settled countries.

My wife came out about six months
ago, and although inclined to be deli

the best of health since coming here.
In short, / am more than satisfied
with the land of my adoption, and
am also satisfied with the laws of the
country.

OKUMA STIRS UP
 A HORNETS NEST
Says Japan Should Protect India From Oppression Of European
 Powers.

Pekin, November 17.-The speech de- livered at Kobe by Count Okuma, who was at one time head of the progressive party in Japan in which he declared that Japan would sorely disappoint the people of India, as well as ignore the oppor- tunities given by heaven, if she failed to afford protection to the millions of India now being oppressed by Europe, has caused the greatest excitement among the British newspapers published in Northern China. In this section of the empire the Japanese expansion movement Is interfering greatly with British inter- ests and there is open warfare between Japanese and British merchants
 Since last May, Englishmen have been the leaders in the anti-Japanese cam paign in Pelxin and Tien Tsin, The Times, which Is the principal British organiza- ton in China, gives expression to the deep seat and smouldering wrath" of Britons in the far east, and accepts Count Okuma's word as a national expression. They reveal, this paper declared, "the cloven hoof and the attitude of a preco- cious and ill-mannered baby among the civilized nations toward country which gave her her present position in the world. We hope that the revelations made by Count Okuma will open the eyes of King Edward and his countrymen as the eyes of the Britons here were opened d long time ago.

Superintendent Murphy of Mobile Schools Says Loss of $9o,0oo Will Seriously Affect Operation.
 Women Gain Attention.
BY HERVEY w. LAIRD.

Montgomery, November 17.-(Spe- cial)-Opposition to statutory prohi- bition is lining up for what promises to be one of the most spectacular losing fights in the history of the state. Mo- bile county, more vitally interested than any in the state, is leading with the hope that the date of closing the saloons will be put over to 1910, hold ing that they cannot get ready to get along without the $S0,000 now received from the sale of whisky, which is ap- piled wholly to the schools, before that time.
 Superintendent Murphy of the school board and half a dozen associates came up tonight. Several of the lady teach CTS are coming in the morning, all to above mentioned. Tt is impossible for us to take care of the situation" said MT. Murphy If the time is made soon, we cannot get local law to increase the taxes without advertising it. and I am sure the legislature will not stay here thirty days to give us time to do that. We cannot borrow that much money and we do not know how we are to get along"
 The fact that a number of women are coming to lobby against prohibition is attracting much attention here tonight. It is so new to have the women on this side that everybody who is interested is talking about it. Already the two ladies who came up yesterday on this mission seem to have made an impress sion.
 A member of the senate said tonight: q sam impressed with their argument. I do not see how they will get along. I am not so sure that I will not vote to put the time to 1910."
 The bill is set for Tuesday noon in the senate It will likely be taken up at II o'clock, as the proposition to in- crease the allotment of the insane hos pital to $4 a week is set for noon and is likely to have a hard time getting to passage. It is said there will be an argument to make the amount $3. 50, but no more, which will increase the expense of the hospital s5o,0oO year.

 Of the next democratic platform Mir. Taggart said:

General Conditions In New York
 Are Much Better
LOSSES ARE MUCH SMALLER
Total Gold Engagement From Foreign Sources Is Brought Up to About S64 ,oo0 o00-More Than Half
 Is Delivered.

New York November 17.-Another closed on Saturday with conditions in New York greatly improved Even with the arrival of less than half of the gold which has been engaged abroad the fig- ures of the bank statement no longer show the sensational losses of the prev ious two weeks. On the contrary, they dropped back to changes as insignificant in amount as during the dullest weeks of midsummer free from any disturb ances.
 The losses shown by the average sys- tenn of $364 100 in specie and s77l,S00 in legal tender notes were only frac- ton of the sum. About 5000, 600 was sur- rendered to the treasury to maintain it's cash balance.
 Gold engagement made on Friday, which amounted to about S6,000,000, brought up the total engaged thus far for America to about s640O0.000. Of this amount 1t is estimated that $S3, ,191 900 has already been laid down in New York or the other American points for which it was destined. The present amount of currency has practically the effect of a premium on gold. and promotes gold im- ports under conditions of foreign exchange where they would not occur if currency and bank credits were at par. In this respect the necessities of the situation have made the premium effective in pro- noting the importation of gold, but the premium declined during the week, and 1t is believed by leading bankers that it will disappear within the next week or 10 days if nothing unusual occurs. Reports from interior points indicate that the scarcity of currency Is being overcome. and that in some cases there is less use of clear ing house certificates.
