BOND MARKET IN

make them go begging
Extraordinary offerings of new Sc

fled the investment demand for bonds

is to be borne in mind that the urgent
financing of the year has been accom-

for before the money market showed
signs of hardening and that the secu-
rlty markets are not likely to be press

nothing more serious is to be appre-

Few farmers have a definite idea
of the total amount of money invested
In farm machinery. II you were to
ask John Smith how much his farm
machinery was worth he would be I'M
able to answer you. He would proba-
bly, tell you that the different imple-
ments cost so much and that there
were a number of repairs for several
Of these. That these implements were
so many years old, and were probably
worth only about half of what they
were at first. Possibly he had bought
some of these secondhand. and had
never kept any record of the money
invested in farm machinery.
Farming being business, should be
eun on business principles, If one is to
know where he Is making or losing
money. So with the machinery the
FIRST cost and repairs should be re-
corded and a strict account kept Of all
labors involved in the up-keep of the
different farm machines. This can
only be done by regular business meth
DDS. The operator of the small farm
may feel that this is not important, and
from his point Of view it may not be-.
Yet actual experience shows that I'M
less some records are kept in operat-
ing a farm 1t is extremely difficult to

VentiIate Your Bed Room.

AS soon as the harvest is giving
leisure to the men who have been
working hard all summer, they should
think about their winter sleeping
quarters. According to the state Anti
tuberculosis society, much of the con-
sumption which attacks country resi-
dents is aided by poor ventilation in
the bed room. Every one, needs
plenty of fresh air when he sleeps.
and with blankets on the bed, you
will be warm enough if the windows
are open, even in the coolest weather.
Storm windows should be put on
hinges so they can be opened during
the night. Thousands of people all
over the state are sleeping in the
open air all the time on sleeping
porches. These are open on three
sides, shut off from the house and
have given renewed energy to every
one who has used them. Fresh air
will prevent as we'll as cure tuber-
cuIosis.

er requirements will naturally require
more machinery, so that the one in
charge of the machinery should not
lose sight of the fact that large sup
ply Of common repairs is better than
to be out half of the time, thus caus-
ing unnecessary delays in the farm
operations. -
The stock Of duplicate parts to be
ordered should be FOR sickle. sections,
for mowers and binders, also sickle
heads and pitmans for the mowers:
Rtvets, wearing plates, ledger plates,
guards, etc., or any such list as searhs
necessary to prepare for the ne9as-
sary farm machines. Any one who lis
at all interested in farm machinery
should be able to devise some plan
which would greatly; facilitate the
handling and repairing Of the farm ihR-
chinery. ...: !
To insure the greatest efficiency
of pillow, cultivators' and ali such i'm
plements, it is a good plan to cover
the face of the moldboards and shoV-
els with good grade Of heavy ma
chine oil or a fair grade of hard oil.
This treatment will keep the wearing
surfaces free from rust, so that the
extra work Of securing these implb-
ments in the spring will be done away
with. To get the greatest returns for
money invested in farm implements
one must have as few delays as pos
sible. ..4
! In keeping before you the first cost
and repairs of the different farm i'm
| plements, few cards as here shown
will be OF. great help In. this way. you
can quickly find how much your wag-
on, mower, or any implement has cost
since 1t was purchased. The deprecia-
ton can also be more quickly cafcu-
lated, and in many ways this will as.
sist in determining the gross earnings
Of the farm each year. This card sys.
tenn might be carried still further by
adding to it a double column at the
right, the extra column showing the
amount. of work or, the value OF the
work done with each implement This
is shown on card describing gang

which to secure fair and equitable

To keep farm machinery In repair ia
no small item, and frequently time lost
in being delayed during a busy period
while waiting for repairs is the cause
for still greater loss. The time loss
In many cases might be done away
with If more care was exerted in over
hauling the machinery during the win
ter season, when farm work Is some
what slack. Many farmers make q
practice Of making some repairs dur.
ing the winter, but there is a greater
majority who never feel that it Is
worth while to spend time to do such
work, but believe they will have time
enough in the spring or before it is
time to use the machine again. AS a.
rule, the work Is not done until the
machine or implement should be in
the field, which ought not to be the
case" The repairing, to be done at
the least expense and loss of time
should be done in the winter, or at
least most of it. There are some i'm
Elements that one might find difficult

farms.

Republican paper dated September
26th. ...r
Under what is known as the Keefe
law in this state candidates for the
legislature may pledge themselves
for the candidate for United States
senator who is favored by the voters,
provision being made for direct
vote. This virtually means the cleo
tion of the senator by the people
provided majority of the members
of the legislature are so pledged.
In this district all of the candidates
for the Legislature are pledged to vote
for the peoples choice for senator.
The effect of this law will be to prac-
ticaIly wipe out party lines in the
election of members of the legislature.
because the senatorship will no longer
be an issue, and have the effect of
making each candidate stand upon his
own merits. The effect of the law
will be felt in this district, because
party nomination will no longer be
! equivalent to an election. 1t is gen.
orally conceded that one of the Demo-
cratic nominees, C. H. Phinney of
Herman, will be a strong factor in
the race. While he carries the Demo
cratic party designation, Mr.. Phin-

county in 1869, settling in Pelican
Lake. township, where he. grew UP

FAIR ASSESSMENTS
Best Valuations Obtained by a
County Assessor.
XXI. THE REMEDY FOR UN-
FAIR ASSESSMENTS.

/
The most important element in the
assessment of property for taxation is
not that the valuations be either
high or low. but that they be fair and
uniform; that all kinds of property of
like character and of equal value
should be assessed at the same value
regardless of the social. political. or
personal standing and influence of
its owners.
1t is self-evident that so long as
the present system of local assessors is
retained there cannot be any such
thing as fair and uniform valuation
of property as between the owners
thereof in the same taxing district.
The local conditions and influences
which inevitably surround and en-
barrass the local assessor are such that
no matter how conscientious he may
be he cannot fairly and impartially
fix the valuation of the property of
neighbors, friends, and enemies. Do
the best he can, either favoritism or
prejudice. charity or overmastering
influence warp this judgement and
initiate against the integrity of
his assessment.
1t is most important that this local
or initial assessment should be as fair
and perfect as it is possible to make
it. 1t is the foundation upon which
all of the taxes levied upon the valua-
ton of property is predicated. 1t
directly concerns the Individual tax
payer, and is intended to place him
upon an equality with his neighbors.
If it fails to do this he pays either
higher or lower tax than he should.
The present system not only fails to
give. but is a positive impeachment
to feir and uniform taxation.
How can this unwholesome state
of affairs be remedied? While an
absolutely perfect cannot be devised,
great Improvement can be made by
the enactment of laws based upon the
following principles. viz:
LIST. The assessor should not be
subject to the embarrassing influences
already mentioned. As far as pos
sible he should be free any re-
lationship, connection, or associa-
tion with the person whose property
it is his duty to assess. 5-
End. The assessor should be per-
son who by experience and familiarity
with the various kinds of taxable
property has become. to some extent,
and expert in valuations. The 5better
"posted' he is as to the values of
property, the more competent he is
to assess it.
! 3rd. In order to become such an
expert, and he Can become so only by
experience, his term of office should
be long enough to enable him tc
familiarize himself with the character
and values of assessable property as
it is bought and sold in the local mar
kets. ...~.:a.,.- ...@' @~.
