That's What Caesar Did.

When Caesar took an eastward ride
And grabbed the Gauls of Rome,
What was the first thing he did tc
make them feel at home?
Did he increase the peoples load
and liberty forbid?
No, he dug in and built Good Roads
that's what Caesar did.
Did Caesar put the iron heel upon the
foeman's breast,
Or did he try to make them feel the
Roman rule was best?
What did he do to pake them glad
he'd come their midst amid?
He built good roads in place of bad
that's what Caesar did.
He built good roads from hill to hill,
Good roads from vale to vale;
He ran good roads movement until
old Roman got all the kale.
He told the folks to buy at home
build roads their hills amid.
Until all roads led up to Rome,-that's
what Caesar did.
If any town would make the town the
center of the map,
Where folks would come and settle
down and live in plenty's lap,
If any town it's own abodes of poverty
would rid,
Let it get out ard build good roads
just like Caesar did.

bring back to their normal condition
and lot of valuable time is wasted
Many die from this cause and many
others never get into condition to give
good, rapid gains. Oilmeal. oats or
other grains than corn may be fed, but
cannot see much benefit in such a
ration. The one that will make a
lamb show rapid and profitable gain
lis all the corn and alfalfa hay he
will eat
Feeding may be done in different
ways, but a very satisfactory one is
to feed corn in troughs, about sixteen
feet long and foot wide, the sides
being about two inches high and the
trough standing about eight inches
from the ground. Often the ear corn
is hauled to the pasture and scattered
but this is a wasteful method if the
ground is wet or covered with snow.
Another method quite commonly prac-
ticed in Iowa is to drive the lambs in
to the corn fields to gather the corn
themselves. This saves picking the
corn and also the corn will be eaten
more slowly as the husks must be
torn off. AS many lambs are lost from
too rapid eating the plan is worthy of
consideration. Quite an amount of
!roughage is consumed in this way,
which means the saving of many a
pound of hay. The greatest fault
with this method is that quite large
amount of corn is wasted in muddy
weather, but If hogs can be turned in
to clean up the fields the loss will be
slight. Yard feeding when the fields
are soft will do away with this loss.
Sometimes the weather is too severe
TO allow of this method being prac-
|ticed, but have driven lambs into
the fields when there were eight or
ten inches, of snow, the corn having
Ito be hunted out of the snow.

FAMILY REUNION
OF GABLE FAMILY
Descendants Of John and Elizabeth

Jake Meets His Weight in Person o
a Sister, Mrs. Ella Hammer,
Who Weighs PAS Pounds.

Mr.. j., H. Gable returned recently
from New Sharon, Iowa, where he at
ended reunion of the Gable family
Below we print an account of the oc
casion as it appeared in, the New
Sharon Star:
September IT. was the occasion OF
a remarkable gathering OF the de-
scendants of John and Elizabeth
Gable, at the homes of Ezra and
George Gable, three miles southeast
|of New Sharon, where this couple for
inerly lived.
Elizabeth Gable, who is now in her
eightieth year and still in remarkably
good health, is the mother of twelve
children, four girls and eight boys. The
children, grand children and great
grand children number 68, while the
wives and husbands of the married
members bring the total of the four
generations now living to 81, OF which
all but Is were present.
This is the second reunion of this
family, -e first having been held on
September IA, 1900, near Ollie, Iowa,
where Elizabeth Gable now resides.
During the meeting the twelve chill
dren We're weighed and tipped the
scales at 1925 pounds, making an av-
GRACE of nearly 1874 pounds each. One
of the girls. Mrs. Ella Hammer, and
J. H. Gable were found to be the
heaviest of the family each weighing
245 pounds.
The gathering was joyous one, as
some of the children had been separ-
ated for eleven years, the only sad
feature being the memory of the faith
er, John Gable, who died since the
former reunion. and also .Onolee Eliz
abetn, daughter of J. e. Gable, who
is ,le only one OF the grandchildren
deceased Before the children re-
turned to their homes, tentative plans
were made for third reunion Of the
family to be held in five years.
