There are over ten thousand auto

according to t1e secretary of state,
who has already issued 1920 licenses.
and tags, the number issued during
1911. 1t is stated that there are still
about 1000 more automobiles in the
state to be registered, many of which
have been purchased during the past
six months. The number of motor
cycles registered during 1911 was 265,
and this number has more than doub-
led thus far 1t is not believed that
all of the other machines were pur-
chased this year, however, but the
increase is due principally to the fail
urssof motor cycle owners to register
th<qessessions last year. A fee Of
three dollars is paid to the secretary
Of state for the registration of each
car, and the money received is turned
over to the various county treasurers
to be used in road Improvement work
in each county. 1t is believed that
the good roads campaign will be Civ
en- an added impetus as the result Of
the application of this fund to this
purpose. The fact that the 5000 cars
purchased in the state during the
past six months have cost approxi-
mately three million dollars is a
splendid example If the prosperity

The Roosevelt leader made this
statement today in vigorous attack
on the national committee declaring
such movements, while it might de-

The dairy score card devised by the
U. S. department Of agriculture and
used in this city is the best means
Of comparing the equipment of dair'
les and their methods of handling
milk. On the basis of this score card
equipment counts for 40 points, and
methods so, making it possible for
a dairy structurally imperfect to
score over 60 points if the proper
methods during milking and cooling
milk are adopted. The use of tie
small top milking pail counts
three points, sterilizing in live steam
for thirty minutes and washing tie
udders before milking, 6 points, and
the prompt cooling and the transpor-

below so degrees Fahrenheit counts
IS points.
Marked Improvement.
There has been a marked improve

Further improvements will be made
when the patrons demand it of their
