IMPROVEMENTS AT CITY BARN.
Horses Will Be CHARTERED on Main
Floor Instead of in Basement Where
Wagons Will Be Kept.

An important change has been made
in the city barn whereby the horses
will be kept on the main floor instead
of in the basement. Stalls have been
erected on this floor with the man
gers. as soon as they are finished to-
wards the sides of the building with
passage way entirely around each
block of stalls, there being seven on
side. As soon as the managers are
in, the stalls will be put in use. San
itary stall pans have been installed,
being connected with the sewer, and
it is expected that the keeping of the
horses on this floor will be more heal
thy for them.
The sleeping room which used to be
on this floor for the night man has
been made over into a harness room
and the sleeping quarters moved to the
top floor. In the basement will be kept
the wagons of the department.

A Voice From Bear Creek.

Greeting to you, Mr.. Editor, for
the new year. and congratulations
on the continued growth and inn
provement of THE VIDETTR.
Truly, the world moves, las
Joe Brown of Georgia said-and
may we move with it in every
laudable enterprise.
Several of our people have al
ready commenced their farm work
and with faces to the front and
God overhead they expect to sue
ceed. The earth," as Joseph
Parker says, is the source of all
wealth. and its products feed
and clothe the world. The farmer
who at eventide" homeward plods
his weary way, who is a producer
as we'll as a consumer, is in the
van of the worlds greatest bene-
factors. Whatever affects the in
terest of the toiling masses should
affect us all. We are sure that all
laws enacted should be for the
greatest good to the creates. mum
Der. Now Mr.. Editor. this is one
of my objections to the stock law.
1t will inure to the benefit of about
one in ten of our farming popula
ton, counting the tenants and the
poor. | have touched live wire
here and a vital question. Cir
cumstances alter cases. The same
conditions do not suit Ell sections
alike. Now if | lived in North
western Kansas or on the prairies
of Mississippi should favor the
stock law where the Bermuda, al
falfalfa and clover pastures consti-
tute the grassing for cattle. and
where they are left to wander in
the hot lanes without food or water
would say: For Gods sake
/ let have the stock law. Look at
] the hills Of Jishomingo county,
Miss, without one mile or acre of
prairie soil in it, once covered
with the stately pine and living
verdure, the finest grassing for
cattle | ever saw. The AK man
and the sawmill have denuded the
! forests on many of our hills, but
4 the native grass still fiourishes in
beauty and the limpid streams
still flow where the cattle may
slake their thirst and grow and
F, fatten. This provision is theirs
! is a natural resource of our coun-
try, and l would say let them have
it in preference to a few acres in a
pasture, eaten down bare, while
ihe country would grow up in
grass and verdure around MS.
A successful farmer in Western
colbert told me he had yoke OF
cattle fat and ready for market
that had not cost him So in money
feeding on the highways this side
of him, miles of which is without
living inhabitant. Have your
private pasture, but don't force a
system on the people detrimental
to the masses. Yours,
! ANXIOUS.
