two years, 100; at from sixteen to
nineteen years, so; at manhood. 75;
old age. 60. There are. however. great
variations consistent with health. Ma.

FIRE WARDEN TELLS OF
BURNING REGULATIONS.

Editor Courier. would beg per-
mission through your columns to ex-
plain briefly the attitude OF the State
Board Of Forestry in fire protection
work.
In the first place, all lands outside
the national forests are under super
vision Of the State Board of Forestry
and under the immediate superyis-
ion Of the supervising fire warden of
the county in which they are situ-
ated.
No permit is necessary from a fire
warden to burn brush, slashings or
any material whatever upon your
premises between now and June 1st
Such burning is very much desired
and it is suggested that where pos
sible, the weather being favorable,
all combustible material be disposed
of before the dry season is upon us.
1t is a fact that the lands over
which our supervision extends in
this county will largely be cleared
and In cultivation at a future date.
Most OF the lands are not heavily
timbered and II is not a matter of
providing such handling as to insure
a future timber supply upon them as
is the case within the national for
ests. There are of course consider
able areas upon which forest growth
should be perpetuated, but gener-
ally speaking our work has to deal
with lightly timbered and brush
lands interminglng and often sur
rounding improved farm property.
Such lands are probably held by nom
residents of the county and possibly
of the state. They will eventually be
logged or cut over for cordwood. In
the meantime, the adjoining farm
improvements are jeopardized
each summer.
The state will assume the respon-
sibility Of disposing Of such material
on the ground as, which by reason of
such location or condition or lack of
protection, endangers life or prop
erty.
1t has often occurred to me and it
has recently been called to my atten-
ton that the situation surrounding
the Fruitdale district is very much
In favor of a fire which could do
considerable damage. 1t is within
my authority as supervising warden
to supervise the disposal Of such ma
terial as would further the spread of
fire. | am in favor of cleaning up
fire traps at a season when they can
be controlled and in controlling fires
by preventing careless burning at
hazardous season.
| offer to supervise the burning of
fire traps throughout the county and
will cooperate with property owners
in this work when called upon.
It should not be understood that
June 1 ends the burning season, for
after that date permits to burn can
be obtained through a fire warden
providing there is no danger from
fire spreading.

RUDDELL FOR SHERIFF

Lawrence Ruddell announces in today'S Journal as a candidate for sheriff.
 MT. Ruddell, although a young man, is no stranger to the voters of Independence county, having made the race for sheriff in pre- vious election, and made a credit able showing. He was defeated by SheriffFike by only a few votes, and 1t may be said to his credit that he made a clean, fair, honest and open-handed fight iii his former race. He is a firm believer in the old truism that Honesty is the best policy" and he adheres strict ly to this policy in politics as well as in the everyday affairs of life. He is a man of cool judgment and good executive ability, who can always be depended upon to do his duty in any emergency and under all circumstances.
 He is a member of one of the oldest and best families in the county. No man is more loyal to his friends, and the result of past elections show that he has many of them in all parts of the county. His ambition to serve his native county as sheriff Is a most laud- able one. He is young, energetic and ambitious, and promises the people good service if they elect him.

START YOUR LIVER
 DON'T STOP WORK
Dodson's Liver Tone Acts Mildly, but Surely. Livens up the Liv- CT and you Stay on Your
 Feet

It is the experience of calomel users that if they take enough of the drug to have the desired effect 1t seriously interferes with their work the day after. But this is the least important item, for calomel is often a dangerous drug and acts on the system violently.
 Don't take chances with calo- mel. Get a bottle of the pleasant, safe and perfectly harmless Dod- sons Liver Tone, guaranteed to take the place of calomel. Instead of making you feel worse the next day it makes you feel better-and you actually are better, for no re medy in the whole world livens up the liver, regulates the bowels aud really rejuvenates the system any better than this dose.
 You are the sole judge of its merits. The Newark Drug Go. is fully authorized to hand you back your money without question if 1t fails to please you-and relieve you.
 Remember, if you feel constipa- ted and bilious, what you need is Dodson's Liver Tone. A large bot tie and a good guarantee for 50 cents from the Newark Drug Co.

counciPs Power. CurtaiIed.

Des Moines, Aug. 2o.-While the
Thirty-fifth general assembly added
materially to the powers of the state
executive council in several directions,
ii took something away in at least one
direction.
Some years ago the legislature en-
acted that where the state department
of public instruction prints reports,
leaflets, pamphlets. ETC., the number
thereof must be decideAby the execu-
tive council. The new law provides
that the superintendent shall classify
high schools and prepare a model
course of study and publish copies of
the latter for distribution. When it
came to deciding how many copies 1t
was found the executive council has
nothing whatever to do with it and
the state superintendent has unlimited
authority in the publication Of this
kind OF literature.
The state superintendent win there
fore use his discretion In the pubGca-
ton Of matter relating to the high
schools and a valuable pamphlet will
soon be got out.

Mcpherson, of the federal court yes
terday issued a temporary RESTRAINING
order preventing the city Of Keokuk
from enforcing an ordinance calling
for a marked reduction in the tele-
phone rentals Of that city. The appli-
cation was made by the Iowa Tele-
phone Company, who ASSERT that the

property.
Hearing on the merits OF the case
will be held at Keokuk, August a.,
before Judge Mcpherson. It was stat
ed here today that the company will
attempt to show that its plant in Keo-
kuk was operated with deficit of
more than $500 last year. notwith-
standing the rates were considerably
higher than those allowed under the
new ordinance.
In addition TO the claim that the
rates are unreasonable and conhsca-
tory. the company charges that NUM-
cipalities are without power under the

a small bridge near the Harry Read

Griswold, one of the stringers gave way
and the engine went down. Mr.. jenkins
had been over the bridge once before
and the machine Of Ben Rudig had been
over twice. but when Mr.. Jenkins start
ed to go over another time the bridge
would not stand the strain of the
thirteen-ton engine.
They blocked the engine. and by
winding rope around the drive wheel
and throwing the machine in gear. they
pulled it out Saturday afternoon with
the help of pair Of mules. They then
had to go several miles around to get
the separator, and it will be Tuesday
at least before they will be able to
start again. The engine was not in
jured much. except the heavy steel
beam which holds the platform being
badly twisted. 1t will mean a good
sized bill for the county to pay.
