Speeding on Homo Grounds.

Commandant c. c. Horton, of the SOL
diers home, today asked the Times
Republican to issue on his behalf a
warning to automobile drivers to not
exceed ten miles an hour on the home
grounds hereafter.

driven about the grounds a t excessive
speed sometimes. and he fears for the
safety OF veterans, many OF whom are
old and do not hear we'll. In order TO
avoid accidents the commandment Will

days gone by, to stop the progress OF
railroad trains by placing distractions
on the track.

Drouoht in the Northwest.

Somewhat alarming reports come
out of the Northwest, from Lake
Michigan to the state of Washington.
If not greatly exaggerated the situa-
ton is certainly becoming serious.
Press dispatches from St. Paul tell
what the railroad inspectors. who are
constantly in the field to estimate the
proba BILE tonnage to be cared for by
their roads in the fall. say about the
crops. the lack of rain. the rush of
live stock to market and the outlook.
1t is to be hoped that these pessimistic
reports are not fully justified by con-
ditions; that the elements will take
hand, and that the increasing drought
will be interrupted by copiOus rains.
Reports sent prior to the recent
scattered showers stated that the
drought was the worst in twenty
years; that the hay and clover crop
was burned and scorched to such an
extent that sparks from passing loco

and ranchers were rushing their live
stock to market by trainloads, realiz-
ing that sheep, cattle and horses must
be sold as there would be no feed for
them during the winter. An official OF
the Swift Packing Company at South
St. Paul declared that the stock rails
ing districts of Minnesota, the Da-
kotas and Montana would be stripped
of live stock before Sept. l and that
prices would drop considerably. He
further predicted that for the next
three years. eve1f with full crops. cat
tie and sheep would bring higher
prices than ever before known, since
new stock must be raised to take the
place of those being sent to market
He concluded that the present year
was the worst for stockmen ever
known.

Men still kiss women's hands-in

Necessity knows no law; wealth
merely ignores it.
Being good looking is duty every
woman owes herself.
A man pieases himself when he can
and q woman when she must.
An aigrette i'm a woman's hair looks
much as green persimmons taste.
Some women drive their husbands,
and some others make them back up
Some men who think themselves
great are not even in the near-great
class.
And many a man likes to go fishing
because his wife doesn't care to &C

The average man is firmly convinced
that ne does seventeen times as much
for others as others do for him.
After a man has been married about
a year he has almost as many buttons
