interests. The committee consists of
Representatives Bricker, Palmer, and
Murphy, and Senators Case and Am

This arrangement is a relief to Mr..
Ferris, as with the great stress cf i'm

is impossible for him to give that per-
sonal attention which the importance
of the states business demands.
Millions for Care of Insane.
1t is only within the last few da;s
that any definite idea could be
formed OF the needs of the states
most extensive institutions. Chief
among these thus far represented are
the state hospitals, commonly known
as insane asylums. The demand
presented for these aggregate So
100000.
Next in extent are the state ncr-
NAL schools, which ask total of 81
265, 900.
Added to these a sufficient amount
is assured to bring the total up to
$12,000,000, or about $3,000,000 more
than was appropriated two years aso.
In a personal interview with the
writer Governor Ferris reiterated
the statement of last week that the

omies of Governor Osborn's admin
istration are rejecting upon the pres
ent regime and that the expense Of
the state government is bound to be
increased this year. Notwithstand-
ing the governors policy to cut out
some Of the expense which he de.
clares unwarranted he realizes that
the states best interests must not be
disregarded in favor Of strained
economy. Governor Ferris stated
that he would not veto any measure
having the demands of a state insti-
tuition in consideration where the
appropriation asked involved the hi

In this connection he referred to tho
asylums. home for fcohle-minded, in

Burton Farmers cIub.:-

Though Friday, FEB. 6, was Sc
verely cold, yet the majority of the
members of the Burton Farmers
club and large company of visitors
assembled at the pleasant and hospi-
tai home of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Fautl
At the usual hour, the vice presi-
dent, Albert Schultz, called the
club to order and the meeting was
opened by singing 1.-THE Battle Hymn
of the Republic" This music was
followed by the devotions conducted
by Mr.. Love.
The noon hour of friendly inter-
course was thoroughly enjoyed and
each one feels that this is not the
least of the benefits received from
the club.
After the rousing song, Marching
Through Georgia" the program was
taken up and the first number Are

tile for ditcning purposes?" This
subject was discussed pro and con

THE Rural District and Church. Z"
We do not see why the farmer
should not have all the modern con-
veniences and luxuries which our
city neighbor may have And a ma
jority of the farmers do have them.
AS to the rural church, we who live
in the country and take advantage of
it, find it the inspiration wiich
makes life worth living.
Mr.. Fauth is a great advocate of
the Williams patent farm gate,
though it came to light that he is
one Of the owners and promoters of
this modern convenience. He has
three of them on HIS premises and he
will be glad at any time to demon
strate to anyone its practibility.
"The farmers relation to the high
COST of living" This subject proved
to be a real issue Of the day and the
general trend of it ended 1.-The farm
er has no relation to the high cost of
living" The middleman or middle
men all have to have a living and
they must have a good profit.
Owosso should have a market
where the consumer may meet the
producer and both be materially
benefited.

Parcel Post Causes Big Saving.

Secretary of state Martindale has
demonstrated that the parcel post is
to save Michigan a vast amount OF
money. In one SINCE item he saved
at least $4,000. Heretofore license
plates for automobiles have beer
sent to owners by express and in al
cases in the country districts auto
owners were required to go to town
to get the plates sent by the state
department. The cost for shipping
has teen 80 cents each. Under the
parcels post system the cost is but
10 cents. When it is considered that
$4,000 Of these plates have been ship
ped during the past year, it will be
seen that the saving is not less than
$4,000.
Secretary Martindale has served
in both the house and senate of the
state legislature, being one of the
representatives from Wayne count,
in 1902 and state senator two terms
beginning in 1905.

Lansing, Mich, Feb. 11.-That
Governor Ferris proposes to keep
his finger upon the legislative pulse
has been shown is events OF the
past week. The governor has sought
to keep in close touch with leg.sla-
tive colditions-what leaders OF both
house and senate have up their
sleeves affecting the interests of the
state and what political significance
may or may not be involeyd in plans
in course of incubation.
For this purpose State Dairy and
Food Commissioner Helme has been
watching developments in behalf Of
the governor. A conference of prac.
tically all the Democratic minority
was held in connection with this
movement which was pleasing to the
governor, as it served to bring him
into closer touch with impending leg
islation.
The outcome OF the conference
was the selection of senators and

AT the city council meeting Mon
day night Chief of Police Megquie,
was instructed to hire a dog
catcher for the city of Libby. To
date not more than IS dogs are re-
corded on the city treasurer s books
and this move was thought neces-
sary to equalize the thing. 1t
would not be fair to let dogs escape
while others are being taxed for
the right to exist in Libby. This
dog catcher is to have half the fine
for his hire. Considering the
number of dogs running around
this will be pretty fat job as each
one is subject to fine of IS. The
chief is now scouting for a man to
take the job and if you want it
you had better see him at once.
