41ftfhat's the matter with
11H our city council? The

xLAE Oul SIly NOuIlNAA' IN
query that can be heard
on the streets of our city ev-
cry day. There is a super
abundance of work to be done,
and no meeting called for IN
the near future, by that body,
nor has there been a council
meeting in three months or
more. There were quite a
mass of small business items
left over from last year, that
should have been attended to
long ere this. One of the
mostimportant Of these small
items," is the collection Of
5000 Street taxes by the
county assessor, unWarrant-
ably, and which the Board of
Supervisors we're going to re-
turn to the municipality Of
Winslow, but which they have
so far, failed to do, the city
council depending on this
money, notwithstanding.
Now, would it not be a good
business proposition for the
council to call a meeting at
an early date and take up this
matter SO as to bring it be-
fore the Board of Supervisors
which meet April 8? The
municipality of Winslow need
this money and need it badly
for street work, and with the
addition of the street tax for
this year added, the streets
could be put in excellent shape
Again, there is the regu-
lar city tax, soon to be collec-
ted, and that will call for at
tention and action on the part
of the city government, and
that soon, too, as half of the
year will have soon passed
and no definite action taken
as yet.
If we have to pay these
taxes, let us pay them at the
proper time. Then we will
have money in the treasury
with which to pay our city off
cials, and current expenses
of the municipality, instead
of borrowing money and pay
ing interest thereon, with
which to run the city govern
ment.
What do you think of it,
Mr.. Taxpayers? Don't swear
at the newspaper for not
going after" each one indi-
vidually, or discuss matters
on street corners. The coun-
Gil can't hear you there. Make
your talk at the City Hall
during the meetings of the
council, and present them
your views of the matters per-
tanning to city government.
Again, if you SO desire, you
can send a communication to
the WINSTON MAIL office, on
any matter concerning city
affairs and what you think
about them. Make sugges-
tions through the columns of
this paper, whereby the ex-
listing state of affairs may be
improved, and we will gladly
publish the article. If you
can't convey or express your
thoughts and ideas in writing,
intelligently, give them to us

enough to be tucked or gathered, are
appropriate.
The dress consists Of blouse and
skirt. The blouse is made with front
and back portions that are tucked to
form york. When a square neck is
desired, it is cut out on indicated
lines. The short sleeves are finished
with bands, the long sleeves with
deep cuffs. The skirt consists of q
five gored upper portion to which one
straight gathered flounce is attached.
The upper flounce is arranged over
the foundation.

Of one dollar per acre by way Of four
draggings and one discing. as here in
dicated, he will be fairly sure Of twice
the profit he would otherwise receive.
Without this additional cultivation
he will, under present conditions,
stand a good chance to receive no
profit at all; for. as before stated,
until the sub-surface is again filled
with moisture. summer showers will
have to be depended upon.
The only difficult part Of this pro-
gram is the discing after the bind
err; but this is really important for
the reason that 'ss result of this
discing, whatever moisture may be in
the soil will gather just below the dis
turbed surface, so that when plowing
time comes, the ground will be in
better condition for Flowing, so far
as relates to moisture. In ordinary
seasons it will be easier to plow sew
en- inches deep when the ground has
been thus disced than to plow four
inches deep when the ground is bone
dry, as it is apt to be IL this discing
is neglected.
l earnestly wish that quite num-
ber of farmers would follow out these
directions faithfully, If only on five
acres of ground, and thus determine
for themselves the advantage of CIV
ing the land this extra cultivation
Don't be satisfied with one seasons
results, but make it point to give
this particular tract-whether it be
five, ten. twenty or forty acres, the
same treatment for five years. We
learn by experimentation.
The land in different sections of
the state requires different treatment
and as am convinced that cultiva-
ton with a view to conservation of
moisture is one of the greatest prob
lens we have yet to solve, l trust
that at least one farmer in each COM
munity will give this matter his ear
nest attention for at least a five year
period and report to this station an
nually the results he obtains.
Objection Is sometimes urged
against these frequent draggings on
account of the tendtncy of some soils
to blow when frequently cultivated.
A top dressing Of coarse manure, US
ing a manure spreader for distribut-
ing it, has tendency to cure the evil
However, manure cannot be thus ap-
piled except on small areas. If, how
ever, the land is dragged when the
ground is fairly wet, it will have less
tendency to blow as the surface will
be inclined to puddle into small
Jumps which will harden and resist
the tendency to drift.
Under any circumstances, the farm
er must use his judgment and be gov
erned largely according to local con-
ditions. A general rule will not ap-
ply to every locality as conditions Of
soil vary greatly. AS a general rule,
where the soil drifts, there is some
thing lacking in the system of farm
management. Whest, grown contin-
uously, will put the ground in con-
dition to drift readily, but no good
farmer will grow wheat continuously
on the same ground. At lease once
every five years, the land should be
seeded down to grass, alfalfa or clov-
er. This will form sod and the fine
roots will act as binder, holding
the soil particles together. If prop
erly managed, but few small areas in
the state will suffer from drifting.

street Intellectually she tried to re-

She was too securely bound. Final
ly the conveyance stopped. She
was again carried into a building
fainting and gasping for breath; the
sack was taken from her head. The
villain, still masked, took the gag
from her mouth, his eyes cleaning

mask, released her and, Kissed
through his tightly closed teeth.

OPERATIONS TO, BE RE-
SUMED AT WONDER

A persistent rumor is current
about town that development work
is to be Immediately resumed in
the Nevada Wondon mine, to be
ready to supply ore to the mill,
which is rapidly nearing completion,
says the Wonder News. 1t has
long been a source of wonder to
men presumably acquainted with the
underground workings of the mine,
that more development work was
not done, for it said that, though
sufficient work has been done to
demonstrate the existence of an i'm
mense body of high grade milling
ore, comparatively little preparation
has been made for the rapid and
economical extraction of this ore.
The prospect of an early resump-
ton of actual mining is looked up
on by our citizens as an omen of
