to look as if railway to the cities

at least very probable. Last week
Ed Robertson, accompanied by re-
preventative of the Luce Company,
were canvassing the land owners trib-
utary to the proposed right-of- f-way
endeavoring to sell stock in the COM

gratifying success. several gentlemen
who own land in Stevens but who live
here in town, taking $1,000. 90 worth
Of the stock and promising to take
more if necessary to insure the build

The Stevens and Artichoke people
have waited patiently for a railroad
for many years and the prospects fol
their hopes being gratif1ed was never
brighter than at the present time.

tanning mill The second selection
will secure the largest and plumpest
of the grains by sieves while the
third selection will secure the kernels
heaviest in weight as shown by the
lighter kernels being blown out over
the sieves. After all these precau-
tions in the selecting of seed grain
remember that this last point of Sc
curing the heavier kernels is of the
most importance in securing large
yield of wheat. The heavier ker-
nels have more plant food stored in
thier cells, then when sown in the
spring they give life to a more
vigorous plant.
This is the time of year to start
your 1914 crop by selecting these
spots of grain that are more vigorous.
heavier and more numerous in kerr
nels having a plump filling. The
1914 insurance policy that we expect
to secure lies in our care of the seed
grain from now until next spring at
seeding time. Let US get busy and
make the crop of 1914 bumper crop.

An Appreciative Doc.

During one of the last birthday cele-
brations of the poet Whittier he was
visited by a. celebrated singer The
lady was asked to sing, and, seating
herself at the piano, she began the
beautiful ballad of Robin Adair." She
had hardly begun before Mr.. Whittier's
pet dog came into the room and, seat
ing himself by her side, watched her
as though fascinated, listening with de-
light UNUSUAL In an animal When she
had finished he came and put his paw
very gently into her hand and licked
her cheek. Robin takes that as a
tribute to himself" " said Mr.. Whittier.

bearing his own name. evidently con.
sidered that hes was, the hero Of the
song. From that moment during the
lady's visit he was her, devoted at
1tendant. He kept by her side while
she was indoors, and when she went
away he carried her satchel in his
mouth to the gate and watched her de-
parture with evidence OF distress.

Good Roads.

chokio Review Thru the courtesy
of Mr.. E. ]. O'Neill we enjoyed an
auto ride over some of the roads
north of town Thursday and while
there are places that could have been
greatly improved by the use of drag
at the time the grade was built, or at
any time after rain when the ground
is soft enough. we are of the opinion
that the town of Everqlade, popula-
tion considered, has done more road
work. and good road work at that,
than any town in the county. They
have some stretches of road running
east and west across the town that
we're built last year by Louie Loehr
that are as nearly perfect as it is pos.
sible to build new road; plenty wide
enough for two rigs to pass. straight
