The big fall of snow which occurred in this section last Sunday night has put the roads to all the surrounding creeks in good condition, and as re- suit the freighters are now hauling much larger loads than has been possi- ble heretofore.
 If the wind will hold off now until after the snow is packed down the roads will be in good condition for the rest of the winter. In the meantime all are taking advantage of the good roads and large loads of freight are daily leaving this city.

OSTEOPATHY-AS DEFINED
IN APPLETIoN'S UNIvER.
SAL CYCLOPAEDIA

"Osteopathy is a method of
treating diseases of the human
body without the use Of drugs, by
means Of manipulations applied
to various nerve centers, chiefly
those along the spine, with a view
to inducing free circulation Of the
blood and lymph, and an equal
distribution Of the nerve forces.
Especial attention is given to
the readjustment Of any bones,
by DR.. A. T. Still. He reasoned
muscles, or ligaments not in the
normal position.
"The system was formulated
that a body SO perfectly construc.
ted mechanically should be able
to protect itself against the in.
roads or disease without the arti.
fical aid of external substances,
except those employed as food.
Ellis next conclusion was that
as a natural flow Of blood is
health, and disease is the effect of
local or general disturbance of
blood. With this as a working
hypothesis, he made a series of
experiments, the results of which
convinced him that the various
organs of the body were controll-
ed by nerve centers located chief
ly along the spine, and that these
could be operated upon and con-
trolled by pressure or stimulation
of the fingers. He holds also that

veins, lymphatics, glands, organs,
and tissues Of the body are in the

A most important boosting step was
taken for Logan when the local sports.
men got together last week to form
an association for the protection OF
game. The fish and game of the coun.
ty are just as much a financial asset
as the wheat fields or knitting fac.
tories and 1t is important that they
be regulated and protected. The game
wardens have not been able to cover
all their territory. When they have
been Ill no one has replaced them, and
the game laws have been practically
useless. From now on we may hope
that the opening of the various game
seasons may have some meaning, that
the selling Of fish and game 10 the
restaurants and markets may be done
In conformity with law, that new and
tetter laws may be enacted, and that
the Office Of game warden may not be
a political plum, but be given to con.
scientious, efficient men.

ANGEL vs.. TAFT.

We see in the Boston Herald, OF Au.
gust s, that Mr.. Taft (notwithstand.
ing his weight Of some three hundred
pounds) rode on a blackboard forty
miles In West Virginia to attend a
horse show, which we presume as
usual included horse races, with the
accompanying bets, and that in the
evening he led the german at the
hotel. 1t may be gratifying to various
people who meet in the summer al
Newport, Bar Harbor and Saratoga
Springs to learn these facts, but we
are not aware that either Lincoln,
Grant or Sherman ever went forty
miles to see horse race; on the con.
trary, we know that Grant absolutely
refused to ever attend any such race,
and we are quite sure that neither
Lincoln, Grant or Sherman ever led
the german at any hotel or anywhere.
GEO. Il. ANGEL.
The above Is from the pen OF the
editor Of Our Dumb Animals and ap-
peared In one OF the August issues Of
that worthy magazine. Mr.. Angel
may be an authority on dumb animals
but ne is certainly not competent to
speak with Intelligence about our
presidential candidates. We should
prefer TO be a dumb animal ourself
rather than give forth arguments so
puerile and presumptive. He knows
Mr.. Taft went to a horse show and
thinks therefore that he must also
have attended horse races, and be.
cause Lincoln, Grant or Sherman never
led a german we are to blame Mr..
Taft for relaxing enough on his vaca.
ton to do anything so frivolous. Mr..
Angel evidently believes that the
viewing of horse races and the par.
ticipation In dancing by middle.aged
presidential candidates Is one OF the
blacklist OF crimes. His opinion may
prevent dumb animals from voting
for Mr.. Taft, but we trust that the
average intelligent republican voter
Will not give II serious consideration.
II Mr.. Taft sees fit to reduce his adj
pose by dancing and lend dignity to
the ball room, we applaud him for
having kept alive the youthful spirit
into middle age. We should also not
be surprised II Mr.. TAFT occasionally
went 10 see some good horse racing.
He comes from Cincinnati, and all
classes Of Cincinnati people like to 20
across the river into Kentucky to
watch the races In Newport or Gov.
ington. We have seen grave judges,
old maids, and school teachers who
are highly thought OF In Cincinnati
and yet like to watch good horse rae
ing, Mr.. Angeles little outburst is
an excellent illustration of the homely
proverb Of strainiDg at a gnaU and
swallowing camel. Why does he
blame Mr.. Taft for these peccadillos,
II pecadillos they be? Why does he
not attack vices or faults? Mr.. Taft
is graduate of Yale University and
has knocked about the world a good
deal and must have picked up some
real, reprehensible vices, and being
human he must have faults. OF
course II he were dumb animal he
would be perfect In the eyes OF Mr.

FALL OPENINGS.

Spring Is usually supposed to be the
moment par excellence for the new
starting OF all forms of life but the
resurrection wave probably strikes
Logan strongest in the fall That IL,
from the mental standpoint. 1t 10
then that the theater, the schools and
colleges open and Logan wakes up
from her summers sleep and begins
to bristle with intellectually. The
Woman's club now undertakes the
enormous task Of reading, studying
and digesting 10 thirty brief meetings
the varied and complicated literature
OF century. Does living among
mountains make everyone want to do
things on the largest possible scale?
The real students, from the first grade
to college seniors, lind In the Infinite
world OF books a most absorbing occu.
patton, II they have any real love for
learning. To such the autumnal
school opening is golden time. The
Joy In using.one's brain gives the same
exhilaration that the vigorous feel 10
the exercise Of any Of their muscles.
Then with study comes the dawn Of
ambition. The student sees what has
been tdone In the world and resolves
to do even better than the best. The
joys Of scholarly curiosity and ambi.
ton are among the best things In life
and the annual school opening is a
glorious resurrection along these lines
for the elect. The Joy IS not confined
to the student alone. The teacher
has a solemn pleasure in the training
of the..minds entrusted to his care, in
watching the unfolding Of the various
forms Of intelligence, and In stimu-
lating his pupils to put forth their
best efforts 1t Is a feeling akin to
that OF the parent, for the teacher be.
gets intelligence just as truly as the
parent begets flesh and blood. Among
the autumn revivals OF intellectual
life we have already mentioned the
theater. This may seem strange to
those who do not look on the theater
as one OF the fine arts. 1t Is plain
that the form we get In Logan would
not incline one to form this opinion,
but 1t Is true nevertheless. European
cit les CONSIDER their theaters and opera
houses as worthy Of public support as
their art museums and their libraries,
In fact much more so than the latter,
for the love Of the theater is much
much more pronounced In Europe
than the love OF books. In nearly all
cities the theater building is munich.

words the city demands that its mu.

artistic possibilities Of the theater.

Australia's Ra bbits.

Australia's great pest is the rabbit.
Not less than $5,000,00o year is be-
ing spent by country Of less than
$5.000,000 population fighting 1t. Ac-
cording to a semi-official publication
exploiting the state of Victoria alone,
and 1t is the smallest of the Austral-
ian Mainland states,' $4,000 people
found employment last year In the
rabbit industry, and in the year $685.
$50 rabbits were frozen and shipped
and 12,000,000 skins exported, to say
nothing of the millions poisoned and
burned.
The record of New South Wales,
which shipped 11,s61 ,76O frozen rab-
bits, and 100000 skins, and some
other states is as startling. And still
the descendants of the original six
rabbits taking Australia as a whole,
are on the increase.

TRAINING TOMATOES.
Method by Which the Fruit Can Be
Kept from Rotting.

The best method ever tried is to
train them to stake. This is a safe
guard against rot, as it keeps TIE fruit
of the ground. l cut stakes from sap
lings 2k inches in diameter and five
to six feet long. choosing those with
small branches all the way up. The
branches are left about four inches
long.
Stake the plants as you have time
after they are set out. When they are
ore foot tall tie them to the stakes
with good, strong twine. and with
some assistance later on they will find
support and cling to the branches. Oc-
casionally, continues the writer in
Farm and Home, some will not take
hold, and you will have to tie them
higher on the stake.
This plan could not be followed in
field cultivation. but in small family
garden 1t works like charm. They
should be given continuous cultivation
all through the season if you want
plenty of fruit.
