els similar to those won for her by

incomes from crops all the way from
two to five times as much as that

difference in income that may be
produced by the systematic introduce
tion and rotation OF clover or other
leguminous crops over the entire
area of their tillable land. The bull
letin deals with principles which it
is declared are vital to successful
farming in the corn belt. Discussion

LIGHT AND WATER QUESTION

Editor of The Yorkville Enquirer:
desire to come into print one more
time TO a sufficient extent to thank MT
John r. Hart for the information ne
has taken the trouble to give on the
subject of light and power as compeh-
sation for municipal services.
Until Mr. Hart, through his comnu- i
nication, advised me to the contrar!
I was under the impression that an OF
dinance Of any kind had TO be pup
lished before it could have the force
and effect of law. Since, however, ii
develops that l am mistaken in thlS' l
cheerfully withdraw the erroneous as
sertion / made to the contrary erect
as we'll as all of the conclusions .that
were based upon this error
II appears that the town council mas
authority to do pretty much as II
pleases, and what ii may or may not 40
depends more on the personal equation
than upon any Otner cOnSlderallol'
Abandoning. therefore the contention
that ANYTHING has been done III TINS
matter contrary to law. freely con-
cede that the council has the power to
COMPENSATE itself To such an extent as
il may deem proper.
There is a story on the streets that
there are twenty-three people SettihS
light and water for municipal services
and that some OF them use many time $
the minimum: but this is evidently a
mistake, for Mr.. Hart mentions only the
members of the council and the MEM
hers of the board of health as being
entitled to such compensation unueT
the resolutions of the council, and as
the resolution only provides for the
minimum, if anybody is using light or
water in excess of the minimum. theE
are. of course, paying for II.
Those people who are trying To make
it appear that anybody is using free
light and free water as II they We're
really free. are just SoreheadS OF the
kind who accuse other people OF dolnS
what they would do themselves If they
had the opportunity.
OF course. the labOrer is worthy of
his hire, and when that laborer is a
public servant. chosen by the people.
and clothed with authority to compen-
safe himself as he sees proper, who Is
i'm a better position 10 correctly Judge
what that hire should be?
Although l was mistaken as to the
law governing the matter and also as
to the facts which seemed to make II
appear that light and water were being
used so freely and prOmiScuOuSly in
the COMPENSATION of most difficult and
arduouS public services. | am not sorry
| spoke. for | have learned something
mot so much as would like to learn;
but still, something.
In all seriousness l would say that
do not like the flavor Of this free water
and free light idea. 1t may not be- con-
trary to law l cannot say that it is
contrary to law; but it does not look
well. l am of opinion that if the gen
tlrmen who passed the resolution orig
inally had forescen what it would lead
to. what it has led to, they would
have hesitated before committing
themselves. But if the gentlemen now
in charge OF the town government arr
content to let matters remain as they
are. there will be no furthS< complaint
by this Registered voter.
