Automobile Street sweepers.

One more additional use has been
found for the mobile-this time in
the STRENGTHENING department OF big
cities. The new motor vehicle is a
combination sprinkler and sweeper
which gets over the ground at good,
steady pace, leaving a trail of well
swept and watered highways behind
1t. The automobile sweeper has been
found to do as much work in given
time as ten horse-drawn sweepers or
a hundred hand-sweepers could do
The new sweeper furnishes an in
teresting illustration Of the evolution
OF STRENGTHENING from the days OF
the humble crossing sweeper of to
day
When the automobile street-sweeper
was first tested the dust quickly clog
ged the gearing and motor and put
the machine out of business This
has been remedied by inclosing all the
motor parts in dust-proof casing.

TRAINING Street Trees.

With trees. as with all other living
things both animate and inanimate. ii
is far easier TO form than to reform
"As the twig is bent so the tree in.
clines" is all of truth and none of err.
ror Too little attention is paid TO the
training of street trees. Before the
winter season sets in they should be
deprived OF top-heavines3 so that when
the soil becomes softened by winter
rains the excessive top will not catch
enough wind to blow the trees over.
Over-heavy tops that receive the full
force Of the winds are apt to be torn
or suffer serious splits, aside from the
danger of blowing over. and all these
evils may be visited upon a single
tree.

LITIGATION of our fair land, pertains to

no thought is given the rural districts
in this respect 1t may be that the
country where rural homes were first

Of such improvement Is not bred into
our bones. 1t is easy to imagine a
settler pitching his tent or rearing a
primitive dwelling amid the most beau
tiful surroundings to be found. But
even so, sufficient love of the beauti'
full is manifest.
All this, however, has changed, for
today man may not choose his habi-

wild and free, yet he may choose to
have them about his dwelling place
and will not find the realization diff

TREES HURT BY ELECTRICITY
English Publication Calls Attention to
the Danger and Its Possible
Prevention.

When wire carrying a high alter
mating current comes in contact with
a limb the current at once commences
t6S'un to ground through the mois
ture in the tree, and If 1t is not check
ed great heat is generated. and the
wood for some distance above and
below the wire is charred and In q
short time burned through When
there Is a leakage and grounding
through street trees there is danger
of people receiving severe shocks, as
by putting their hands on the trees
the current may run to ground through
the body, says Gardeners Chronicle
(Eng.). 1t is during wet weather that
there is danger of this grounding, as
the best insulators are powerless to
check entirely the escape during GER
tain atmospheric conditions. What is
the remedy? The obvious one is the
prevention of wires touching the trees
Where there are high tension wires
near a tree there should not be any
other wires attached to the latter, as
there is always a danger Of the live
wire touching the tree wire. and so
causing the current to escape. The
custom of guying electric wires to
street and other trees is becoming
more prevalent among municipal en-
gineers

CATTLE RECEIVED AT KANSAS
CITY STOCK YARDS FROM CON-

The year 1911 has been one of the

of live stock, and it has been one of
the big years in the stocker and feed.

Kansas City have been SO strong
throughout the year that the territory
OF competing markets has been invad-

Joseph and st. Louis, competitors
with Kansas City for the Missouri
hog business. The slaughter of sheep
in Kansas City in 1911 breaks all pre-
vious records by 100000 head,
In 1911 95 per cent of all the live
stock ralsers in Kansas City found

enroute from one part of the country
to another, made up most of the re-

stock was forwarded to other markets
because of unsatisfactory bids at Kan

Great improvements in the facili-
ties at the yards were made in 1911.

most important additions to the facil-

HAVE YOU SUSPECTED YOUR KIDNEYS?

There are two ways to tell whether you
have weak kidneys.
The first is through the pains in the back
and other outward signs. The second is
by examination of the kidney secretions.
That is why physicians make such a
careful examination when you apply for
insurance, and if there is any sign Of kid
ney trouble you are surely rejected.
Kidney disease is so dangerous that it
is bad mistake to overlook or neglect it,
and if pain in the back, recurring head
aches, or fretful, nervous, tired condition
makes YOU suspect some kidney trouble,
take the trouble to watch the kidney secre-
tons. Look for any of the following
signs:
More or less than three and one half
pints passed daily.
Too dark or too pale color.
PASSAGES too frequent, profuse, or much
reduced. or scaldina and painful,
Sandy, gritty or cloudy settings.
Fat or oily-lookina layer which gathers
or a jelly-like thickenind.
Staining of the linen or bad odor.
Temporary changes may occur for time
from things eaten, but il the changed ap.
pearance continues, your kidneys are out
Of order and need help. Neglect may prove
serious

late the kidney secretions, stimulate and
