cries to Dairymen.
Grand Forks, n. D., Jan. Z. - Some
startling theories as to the care of
downtrodden bossy are being promal-
gated by Mrs. AIDA F.. HOWE of Elk
Grove, Wis, who is assisting Professor
Hoverstad of the North Dakota agr'-
cultural college in his institute work iE
North Oak ,ta. 1t is not good form,
to be ruIie 10 the sensitive COW, she
asserts.
Every COW in my stable is groomed
every day." said Mrs. HOWE. in an
interview here "She is brushed,
washed and her hoofs and her horns
polished. Some people might laugh at
tins, but i. has brought results. Cows
are intelligent animals and the rubbing
ana grooming not only stimulates their
circulation. strengthens their digestion
and improves the lactel process, but
ADDS to their self-respect. This means
more profitable results for the owner. =
Mrs Enwie has practical experience
to back up her theories. She started
i'll with two cows and now has one Of
the finest herds in the United States.
Her dairy farm is seven miles from
milwaukee,. snl Is model one. She at
tributes her success to good common
serse principles, soap, fresh water and
kindness.
Mrs. HOWE is creating widespread
interest in every locality she has visited
ir North Dakota. She insists that uhe
COWS be talked to- especially at milk
ing time.

RAISE A NEW POINT.
ottumwa, saIoonists Attack Anti
Liquor Petition on Technicality.

Ottumwa, Jan. 8.-As q closing en-
phasis to the numerous objections to
the revocation petition names by the
attorneys for the defendant, Charles L.
Hallgren, in the case that has been in
against seventy-five pages of the huge
document was made yesterday on the
ground that the names thereon, total
ing closed to 1000. were invalid an
not material, because of failure to be
sworn to before a notary who was an
American and capable of holding Of
fees in the county. A. NJ Reinwand.
whose signature and notarial seal
were affixed to each of the seventy
five sheets, is alleged to be an alien,
not naturalized American citizen. An
objection was also made to all the
names on page PAL because same were
not verified before a notary public or
other officer, and the same objection
was made to, page 249 on the same
ground and because no seal was at
tached.
The task of completely canvassing
the petition, which upon filing with
County Auditor Tuesday, Dec. %, at
4:45 D. m, closed all saloons and
wholesale liquor houses in Ottumwa,
was concluded yesterday afternoon

put their objections in shape in order
that the matter of presenting them to
the court might be facilitated. Judge
T. E. Kirby will resume sessions to-
morrow at a. m. and hear the argu-
ments on the objections.
Fifty-eight objections were pre-
sented by the defense on the last day,
making total Of 500 challenges offered
to individual names.

county would meet the other at a point
practically within jurisdiction, and the
total OF miles averaged by each would
be about fffty-tWo. These county
roads should avoid hills and streams
as much as possible, and in order to
accomplish this, it would be necessary
in some instances to condemn or ex-
change public land for pub
lie highways. To suit the idea
of having level roads, distance
order to maintain equality In grade.
From. the county seat roads, could be
built highways leading to the state
roads, making nine new roads leading
east and west and eleven roads rum
ming north and south. This, plan would
involve the construction of about
5000 miles of new highway, but would
admit of access in all directions from
one cross state road We are now bur-
dened with many miles of highways
not extensively used, and these could
used to better purposes. They could be
limited to a few which would lead only
to county seat towns or permanent
places of business. We have no county
in this state with less than o7S miles
Of highway, and some with LISP miles.
1t is incumbent upon us to seek some
means Of lessening the surplus mile
age. All such county seat roads I
should designate as "a" roads, which
should be located and maintained by
general taxation. All other roads I
would class as "B" roads, and these to
be main tanned by the poll tax system.
The "a" roads should be under the
SUPERVISION of the board of supervis-
ors of each county and should be un-
der the consideration of the county
surveyor and civil engineer, who In
turn should put into effect the best
possible system of Improvements and
maintenance. Weswould then believe
have highways of which no other state
west of the Mississippi could boast,
and roads which would invite the ap-
proval of all overland travellers as we'll
as to encourage omnibus or stage
travel by automobiles. I believe the
tax PAYERS of this state will agree With
me that saving the appropriation asked
for the purpose of establishing good
roads. we could build the better with
county general taxation and at the
same time maintain and control better
highways in a system of uniformity
dhruout the state rather than have i'm
provements applied where only a GER
tain number of people are benefited"
