A bill introduced by Hasknis, of
Douglas county, imposes a fine of

to be in general favor but may have
more support than is thought when
put to vote.
Of general interest to the people
of the state is a bill introduced by
Rep. Orr, Of Livingston county, to
prevent the resubmiSsion Of Single

President Pro lem Wilson has plac-
ed him on a number Of important
committees among which is the
committee on insurance and clerical
,Iorce, both of which ne is chairman.
Representative j. P Boyd, of
Paris, is serving his second term in
the lower house and is recognized
as one of the leaders in the
Democratic majority He is a men,
ber of three committees, one of
which he is Observation-Disclosures
and Internal Improvements This
is one of the most important COM
mittees and Speaker Hull used good
judgment when he named him as
chairman. Another committee of
which he is a member is that of
Penitentiary and Reform Schools.
This committee is made more i'm
portant this year on account of the
question of the disposition of state
factory buildings an& eqaipmahts
caused by the passage OF the Con-
vict labor law at TIE last session.
What is known a. ,Ha Blue Sky
bill was introduced simultaneously
in both branches last Friday morn
ing 1t was introduced in the
Senate by Senator K. S. McClintic
and in the House by Rep J. P. Boyd
This measure provides that before
any corporation licensed by the
state can begin the sale of stock it
must file statement with the bank
commissioner setting forth in detail
the amount and character of its
property. its location, its total as
sets and liabilities and its objects
and purposes. If the bank COM
missioner finds that the company is
a solvent and was organized in good
faith. he will furnish its officers with
a statement setting out such fact,
but explicitly stating that he does
not recommend its securities to the
public. On the other hand, if he
finds the concern inSOlvent he will
serve it with notice and it will be
unlawful for it to sell any bonds or
stocks.
This puts a double check upon
corporations organized for business
purposes in Missouri. The secretary
of state must first be satisfied that
any company has complied with all
the laws relating to the issuances of
charters or licenses before he will
issue his certificate of incorporation.
The agents who sell the stock of an
insurance, mining or any other kind
of a corporation, except banks, trust
companies, building and loans and
a few other excepted concerns, must
take out a license to do so. These
are issued upon the payment of a
fee of ST. If any officer shall file a
false affidavit relating to his COM
pany with the bank commits sioner
he will be punished. if convict ted, by

Starters of Good Roads.

If highways are an evolution from
the primary paths made by animals
and men the first roadmakers did not
make their paths straight certainly, and
many a road today is a monument to
the leaders in roadmaking Of the long
ago. Nevertheless it IS said that some
animals, the buffalo especially, were
pretty fair engineers. They bad an eye
for grade. which cannot be said of
some Of their successors. In the west
engineers hunting pathways for rail-
roads are said to haveSlargely followed

Careless Rasplng Done

The nature of our horses and cat

that the face or grinding surface OF
the back teeth should be rough like
milestone. Nature has made the
grinder teeth in such way that they
keep themselves sharp on the grinding
surface, which is necessary to enable
the animal TO grind his food properly.
The back teeth on the upper jaw are
always wider than those ON the lower
Jaw This being true. a sharp edge
will be kept on the outside OF the up

lower teeth, The sharp edges Of the
upper teeth will cut the cheeks and
the sharp edges on the lower teeth
will cut the tongue. These edges can
easily be felt on the upper teeth by

THE GREAT COST or
ROAD MAINTENANCE.
Macadem Must Be Constantly Watch
ed--Brick Wears Well.

AT the recent rond congress s. Percy
Hooker. who has lhad long experience
MS superintendent of highways In New
York and New Hampshire, declared
that the cost of maintaining all 'varie
ties Of improved roads Is about the
same If the interest on the investment
is counted. He thinks that the greater
cost of building Il brick road makes an
interest charge equivalent to the cost
of maintaining Il macadam road.
All this may be true, but one fact re-
mains In favor of the brick road--it
will be maintained by not wearing out,
whereas the macadam road is likely to
wear out by not being maintained. A
constant bill for maintenance is harder
to pay, 1t appears. than bill for inter-
est on money invested. IL 1t will be
maintained there is no objection to any
form of good road but maintenance
seems to be a doubtful thing, and the
way to have n good road is to get 1t in
its most nearly permanent form at the
start The money spent on many mac
adam roads has been practically thrown
away for lack Of their proper mainte-
nance. The money spent on brick roads
is still paying dividends In good serv-
fee. And that Is why 1t Is better to
build brick roads in our present uncer-
tain and growing stage Of road work

no "Grade Road" Once TWO Milo
Terror to Farmers, Is Now Pointed
Out With Pride--used Automobile
Tax Money.
Probably one of the very worst pieces
of road In Iowa existed for years in
Benton county, just across the Cedar
river north of Vinton 1t was known as
the grade road" and is well known.
especially to every automobile tourist
who was unfortunate enough to DO
forced to travel it.
The grade road proper is about two
miles in length, leading directly from
the north end of the Cedar river bridge.
1t traverses very low land, which over
flows in time of high water and pre-
sents number of difficulties which I'M
der the old system bafiied the roadmak-
ers. This grade is built up like rail-
road grade, and the height varies from
probably ten TO twenty feet During
freshets the river would cover the en-
tire country, in some places running
over the road, and the consequence was
thul WHtu inc NuttIS IeCtutu Tue Srhue
was honeycombed with washouts. Va
rious ways were tried to resist the
water, such as using crushed stone,
dirt, etc, but every year found the sur
face of the road a little worse than the
year before and so full of chuck"
holes that real old corduroy road was
boulevard in comparison. 1t was al
most impossible to get over II with
load. much less an automobile.
As the ordinary road tax in this
township was entirely too small to
properly take care of even this one
piece Of road. the building of a per-
manent highway was difficult mat
ter. However, early last spring the
Vinton AID. club took the matter up,
and what was the worst piece of road
In Iowa is now the best and enjoys
the distinction of being the first con-
crete county road to be built in Iowa

teeth; P-2 grinder in natural condi-
| ton.
Sometimes one grinder may be long.
err than the rest, due to the opposite
tooth being soft or entirely gone.
Occasionally horses take mouthful
OF food, chew 1t for moment and
then force 1t from the mouth, or when
chewing will hold the head to one side.
This Is a sign that their teeth are
loose, cutting the cheeks or tongue,
and the mouth should be examined
carefully to find out exactly where the
trouble is and have 1t corrected at
once.
In rasping or floating horses teeth
great care must be exercised to rasp
off only the edges Of the teeth that
are doing the injury and to avoid
touching the grinding surface that
nature has made sharp to enable the
animal to grind its food properly. To
accomplish this the rasp must be held
SO that the file surface touches only
the sharp outside edges of the upper
grinders and the sharp inside edges Of
the lower grinders. The time re-
CURED to do this, II the horse is quiet.
should be but three or four minutes.
The farmer should not allow
ordinary horse farriers who travel
about the country to float his
horses teeth. These veterinarians.
as they call themselves, find
every horses teeth sharp that they
examine and say, "They need floating"
The farmer allows the quack to do the
work and he rasps everything that
comes in contact with the rasp. His
fee is from one to two dollars, which
the farmer pays and the quack goes
on his way to catch the next sucker.
Every horse treated in this way suf-
fers the consequences later, and the
farmer, after 1t is too late, sees his
mistake in placing confidence in a
smooth-talking individual.
Sometimes the farmer gets the idea
that the front teeth of old horses get
80 long that the back grinders will not
come close enough together to grind
their food and the only thing to do is
to have them cut Off This is not true.
Nature BStS III Hel "OIh mere AGAIN
by having the front teeth grow
straighter as the animal grows older,
and by having the front teeth wear Off
faster than the grinders, due to their
having a smaller wearing surface
1t is not hard to get farmers to UNI
derstand this, but when a smooth
talking farrier tells the farmer that
the teeth need cutting, the farmer
often persuades him to rob Nature 81
her good work and in addition cause
suffering to the animal all the rest Of
Its life. G. A. LUEDER,
