Operation Alleged to Have

Urbana, Ill, Dec 2.-The latest edu-
cational novelty in Illinois is to be a
short course in highway engineering
at the University of Illinois Jan. 10
to Jan. 81. The last legislature pass
ed new highway legislation, including
the creation of county superintend-
ents of highways and the possible ap-
pointment of township or district sup
erintendents.
In view of the new principles of ad-
ministration introduced by the law
and on account of the recent radical
changes in the methods and materials
of road construction due TO the in
creasing use of the automobile, the
university decided TO offer the short
course.
The primary purpose is to be to help
the county superintendent of high
ways prepare themselves for their
duties.

In my opinion, this is an exception ally
good year to buy breeding ewes, and
they will show handsome profit to the
parties that can grow them until next
season. They are much cheaper than
they would have been, on account of the
drouth III the west. If you and your
friend can use deck, l can make the
price exceptionally attractive.
