Just how many county di-
vision bills will be introduced
in the legislature this winter,
it is impossible to say at this
time, but the indications are
that the Twelfth session will
be asked to create something
like ten new counties. Some
of the proposed divisions
have merit, and should be
made while others should be
killed early in the game. For
instance, there would be just
as much wisdom in making
two counties out of Bear Lake
as there would be in making
three counties out of Lincoln,
which it is proposed to do by
some of the Lincoln county
people. 1t has frequently
happened that county divi-
sion fights in the legislatures
have been the means of block
ing business generally, and if
the members from those
counties which want to be
divided this winter, should
all stand together they could
come pretty near debating
things. 1t seems to us that
the question of dividing
couuties should be left TO the
people of the counties.
If a majority of the voters
express themselves in favor
of division and agree upon
the lines of division then the
legislature could enact the
necessary law without so
much wrangling and log roll
ling. Two years ago Adams
county was created really
against the. wishes of the
people within the territory of
the new county, while the T
Power county bill was defeat
ed over the wishes of nine
tenths of the people within
the proposed new county. |

For these things the bureau was

Professor Holden see more than an

They see a time coming when farmers
will raise twice as many bushels OF
corn, wheat and oats to the acre.
and like yields of all other kinds OF

farmers and farmers wives and their
children will think more and work

Rabbits are worse this year than
for years and that they are TAX
ing to the oat crops and all small
vegetation in the way of garden
stuff.
One of the best ways to rid the
community of these pesky crit

near Caps. He says that if a
person will fasten a lantern or
head light on their head and go
out in the early part of the night
that they can kill a boat load of
the varments in a very short
time. IL seems that the rabbits
are blinded by the glare of the
light and a person can walk up

as the spring DAYS begin to show

shines in brighter splendor upon
the country, the spirit of build

The large brick buildings, some
Of which were started early in
the year, are beginning TO loom
up. and look like there was
something doing sure ienough.
The next thirty days will com

in the future Of the town and
do not apologize TOR living here.
which accounts for the contin-

is recognized as the future i'm

of the less progressive towns.

the nature of the soil and the

farming win be adopted by the
farmers Of this country this
season more uniformerly than
ever before. and for this reason.
coupled with the splendid season
and excellent condition Of the

ability Of this crop Of 1912 in the
South Plains exceeding any pre-

Very little planting has been
done up 10 this time. Some
farmers nave planted corn. but
this is about all that has been
done in the way of planting.
Experience has taught, in this
country It does not pay to plant
too early.

are exceedingly good, and by
harvest time it will take all the
