SHORT COURSE ASSURED
Delegates in the County Meeting I'm
animOusly Vote for Course.
THE MEETING is ENTHUSIASTIC
Crowded Court Room Hears Address
by Prof. Burger and Plans
for Short Course.

Final action was taken upon the
proposition of an agricultural Short
Course for Winneshiek county at
meeting at the court house Satur-
day afternoon Of the committeeman
appointed from the various town
ships, there being eighteen townships
represented, in all about 200 men.
The meeting was called to order
by Hon. L. vi. Enger, who some time
ago was appointed to take charge
of the preliminaries by the Decorah
Commercial Club. Ed. Brakeman
was chosen chairman and F. E. Bier
mann secretary. Prof. A. A. Burger,
professor of animal husbandry of
the Iowa agricultural college at
Ames was then introduced, and
made lengthy and very interesting
and instructive address upon various
phases of agriculture, corn raising,
stock feeding, insect pests and pre-
ventatiyes, etc.
The question of securing a Short
Course for this county was then put
to motion, and it was unanimously
voted for. 1t was also decided that
guaranty pledges should be circulat-
ed by the members of the committee
in the various townships, each signor
pledging himself to the extent of
$4.00 If necessary, to pay the expense
of the course Three hundred sigma
lures will be required in order to
secure the course.
Another meeting will be held on
March 30th, for these committees to
report and to make further arrange
ments. Mr.. Enger has also held
meetings at OsSian, Castalia, Calmar,
Fort Atkinson and Ridgeway, and at
each plaee he found the sentiment
very strong in favor of the course,
so that it is believed that there will
be no difficulty in securing the sigma
lures to the required number of
pledges.
We are heartily in favor of the
course. 1t is great thing for
county-the very best way to ad-
vance agricultural interests, to in
crease production and values on the
farm, and will be worth a hundred
fold the time and effort spent in
attending it.

PUBLIC ROAD STATISTICS.
Some Interesting Facts Concerning
Roads of the United
States.

Even with a high powered auto
mobile that could keep UP pace of
90 miles a day indefinitely, it would
take a man more than 65 years to
cover all the public roads in the
United States. A young man of
twenty starting out to accomplish
this tremendous task would be 50
before he had covered the last mile
of public highway in this country.
After an investigation extending
over many months, Logan Waller
Page, Director Of the Office Of public
roads, has ascertained that there are
now 2,199,645 miles of public roads
in the United States. The figures in
clude all the new roads built up to
the year 1899. In 1904 there were
exactly 2,151,379. 1t is apparent,
therefore, that the increased mileage
of new road within a period of about
five years has been 4S,266.
THE investigation just conclud-
ed" said Director Page, in an inter-
view. shows conclusively that the
movement for the improvement of
public highways has obtained firm
grip on the country. The percentage
of roads which were really improved
amounted to ia in 1904, while in
1909, to which year statistics are
now available. the percentage was
S.66.
1t is interesting to observe the
growth of improved methods i'm road
construction. For instance, the total
mileage of stone roads in 1904 was
36,S1S, while in 1909 it was 59,237.
The total mileage of gravel roads in
1904 for 109, 1905, while in 1909 it
was only 102,S70. This decrease in
gravel roads. however, was due to a
reclassification of roads. Many of
those reported in 1904 to be of gravel
proved to be of some other substance,
while exaggerations were eliminated.
The total mileage of sand-clay,
brick, bituminous-macadam and 9TH
er improved roads in 1904 was 6,SO6,
while in 1909 the mileage reached
2s,S72."

TAFT HAS AZ IOWA DELEGATES.
Looks Like He Would Capture Iowa
Delegation Easily. Has More
Than Half Enough Now.

Des Moines, Ia, March 12.-The
Ninth congressional district republi-
can convention in session at Council
Bluffs today elected two Taft dele
gates to the republican national con-
vention, making six so far to have
been selected and six instructed. The
Seventh district republican conven-
ton was held here today and two
delegates instructed for Cummins
elected to the national convention.
These are so far the first two select
ed for the Iowa presidential aspirant,
and this is his home district. The
first district is conceded to Taft by
the progressives and the Tenth and
Eleventh conceded by the regulars
to either Cummins or Roosevelt
This will leave Taft eight delegates
to the national convention and the
Cummins and Roosevelt forces COM
bined six delegates, with the Second,
Third, Fourth and Fifth districts as
open fighting ground. First political
blood will be spilled in the Second
district next Saturday, when the
Johnson county convention will be
held. This will go for Taft.
The Fremont county convention at
Sidney yesterday, which instructed
itc daIapatiOn tO tbh ctoto oonvantion
for Taft, made the fortieth county
in which all doubt of the question
of support has been settled. These
forty counties give Taft All dele
gates, Cummins 1S2 delegates and
Roosevelt "a. These Taft counties
with their delegations to the state
convention are:
Henry, "A; Louisa, II; Davis, s;
Jasper, 10; Keokuk, Is; Mahaska,
Is; Monroe, IA; Wapello. "a; Madi-
son, 13: Marion, IA; Adams, 8; APP
panoose, II; Clarke, 8; Decatur, 12
Fremont, IL; Lucas, 10; Ringgold,

Il; Adair, Il; Audubon, 10; Cass,
10 Guthrie, IA; Harrison, 16; Mills

tawattamie, 80; Calhoun, 13.
The Cunlmins votes come from:
Poweshiek. 16; Washington, IA; Dali
las. II; Polk, ga; Story, 20; Warren,
IA; Shelby, IL; Buena Vista. 13;
Sioux, IA.
For Roosevelt: Page, II; Mills
(divided) Z.
AS there will be 1,4S1 delegates in
the republican state convention at
Cedar Rapids, TAI delegates will be
necessary for the election of the
delegates-at-large to the national
convention. 1t will be noted that
with less than half the counties
heard from Taft has more than half
the requisite number of votes.

A Big Crop Year Ahead.

Conditions were never more ideal
for a crop year than they are at the
present time, in the opinion of DR..
George M. Chapel, section director
of the Iowa weather and crop SER
vice. The conditions exist because of
the large amount of snow that has
covered the ground since Christmas
and the extreme cold weather during
the early part of January.
"The ground was frozen to depth
of only two or three inches when the
first big snow came,' said DR.. Chap
pei. THE snow has acted as a
blanket, preventing the ground from
freezing any deeper, and as result
of it the frost will leave early and
allow the ground to absorb all Of
the spring moisture. In the fall of
1909 and in many other years, a
freeze usually follows rain storm,
which covers the ground with coat
ing of ice. This is covered by snow
and as result of 1T no air space is
left between the ice and the ground
The lack of air causes the grass to
smother, causing a shortage of pas
ture the ensuing summer. Extreme
cold weather disintegrates the SOIL
which makes it easier for the farmer
to cultivate and putS N i'm better
condition for the raising of all crops.
All these favorable conditions exist
at the present time, and if we have
an ordinary spring and summer, with
normal precipitations, farmers of
Iowa will raise the biggest crop in
the history of the state"

The Waterloo Times-Tribune says
that when the west finds fault with
every western candidate for the su-

The Cedar Rapids Gazette says ii
likes Taft for one reason, because
other 'malefactors of great wealth"
whom Roosevelt used to talk about
SO gibly, are against the president
and are presumably friendly to
Roosevelt.

The Old Boy in
the Corn Field.

The old boy" may have been
you; he may have been your
father, or your grandfather; but
he had a life somewhat different
from that of the boys of today.
He did not ride on a two-row
cultivator, or a one-row. The
best he had was a double shovel
cultivator, and he had to go
twice through each middle-a
round for a row. His father had
a single shovel, and a little one
horse plow with which he threw
the dirt away from the row on
each side, and then drew it back
with a single shovel or bull tom
gue-two rounds to the row.
The "old boy" plowed corn
barefoot-that may be the rea-
son why he has no corns or bum
ions. That soft earth felt good; /;
you bet! Sometimes when there
had been corn in that field the
year before, a silver of big
cornstalk got under the nail of
his big toes and he said, ''ouch"
He took it out by catching it be-
tween his thumb nail and the
blade of his jack knife. If that
failed him, he forgot about it
until it ''bealed" or festered,
when it came out easy.
A blackbird and sometimes a
redwing followed him and picked
up the fat grubs or the cutworms.
The crow kept a safe distance
away; for the "old boy" regarded
him as a thief, an egg sucker, a
corn puller. The "old boy
liked to see the pugnacious bee
bird or kingbird getting after
the crow and chasing him out Of
the neighborhood. The big fel.
low, like all rascals whether
among men or birds, is a coward,
and tries to sneak away. The
beebird, like the boy, had found
out that the crow was a thief and
ought to be driven out of the
country. bob White" cheered
him from his perch on the stack
of a rail fence or a fence post,
and the redheaded woodpeckeI
raped rat-a-tat-tat on the dead
tree or the roof of the barn.
And so the "old boy" plodded
along ali afternoon, stopping to
visit with another "Old boy
where the field jOined-or the
horses needed a rest-and once in
a while he looked at the sun, for
he was beginning to feel pretty
hollow; and rejoiced when the
dinner horn sounded the -''tocsiu
of the soul"
MyI how good that 0dinner
tasted to the "Old bOy"-ham
and eggs, noneof your packing
house products, but country cured
none of your storage eggs, but
fresh-(later he will not be so
certain about that, for hens used

to hide their rest); bread and
butter, or hot biscuits; early po-
tatoes; currant or gooseberry pie;
how good all these tasted. Then
he lay in the shade till one, if he
did not have to split wood for
the stove or the outoven.
Now you see him sitting side
wise on the horse, going back to
the corn field slowly, hitching
up to his plow leisurely, very
leisurely indeed; for the sun is
hot and will be hotter in a couple
of hours, and it is a long time
till supper. After supper he
and his neighbor chum (they
made it up when chatting on the
fence while the horses were rest.
ing) repair to the swimming
hole, and dive to see which can
reach the bottom, perhaps have
a tussle to see which is the
best man," not morally but
physically. They wonder where
that swarm of bees went this
afternoon and if they can find
the tree, and whether the black
berries will be a good crop this
year, and how soon the late
cherries will be ripe.
The ''old boy" will tumble in
to bed shortly and sleep will
steal over him, so quiet, so re-
freshing. Gle wishes he could
sleep that way new.) He won't
know anything till morning,
when he will be rudely awakened
by the sharp rap of a bootjack
on the kitchen stairs. (Do you
fellows know what a bootjack isO
He hears these fateful words:
up! Up" He drawls out
sleepily: 'Ye-as!" and falls asleep
again. My, how sweet that
sleep is! Then there will be an
other emphatic rap on the stairs.
The bootjack will rap longer
and in staccato this time, and
there will be a more emphatic
up! Up! UpI" Again he falls
asleep. Finally the bootjack
will speak in the imperative
mood, present tense. He knows
then that he will not dare to
fall into the arms of Morpheus
again, so he jumps out of bed.
His toilet is a simple matter. He
goes opIDinto the kitchen, seizes
a washbasin, goes to the pump,
fills it, washes his face and hands.
Then out to The pasture, bring
in a couple of horses, feed and
water and curry them. Then he
will ride away to the field, after
eating his fill of bacon and eggs,
bread and butter and coffee.
Then you will see him in the
bright fresh morning of the day
and of his life, with birds sing
ing and flowers in fioom, going
back to the corn field to live.
again the life of the day before.
