FOR GOOD ROADS AND PROS.
FERITY IN LINCOLN.

Editor Leader:-FeeIing the
interest do in the welfare and
progress of Lincoln county, / feel
it my duty as a citizen to contrib
ute my little mite, though it be
ever SO humble, to anything that
would tend to build up or bring
better times to our people. | am
unable to conceive of anything bet
ter calculated to do this than the
improvement of our public roads;
for every intelligent man knows
that transportation is the founda-
tion to the success of any country
or any part thereof. Therefore,
good roads are an urgent necessity.
About the only objections / hear
to having the good roads extended
through the county is. it will cost
SO much. the county can't pay the
debt. ] submit the county cannot
pay for anything without trans
portation facilities. We do not
expect the county to pay for the
roads. We expect the roads to pay
for themselves and help the county
to pay for many other things.
Suppose that the people of Lincoln
county had been compelled to wait
until some man or company Of men
had accumulated enough money to
build railroad. purchase the roll
ing stock and other equipment nee.
essary for the operation of the road
before an effort was made to build
a railroad. am sure that there
would have been numbers of old
gray-haired men and women in
Mississippi today that would have
never heard the whistle of loco.
motive and would not now for years
to come.
Now, we have. In a timid way,
been trying to improve our public
roads for something like Is years
our contractors have worked and
toiled: been cussed, discussed and
recussed; our supervisors have con-
sumed more time on the road oues-
tion, ! presume, than almost all the
other business of the county, and
after all this and the expenditure
of about $25, 900 per year. we have
worse roads the year round now
than we did 20 years ago. :
Now, if you are a citizen Of Lin
coin county and want to prosper,
step out to the front and help il
this good roads movement. If you
are not in favor Of prosperity. OF
course it is presumed you intend
moving to some other locality. So
please don't obstruct this move

Yours for good roads and pros.

AGAINST THE TICK MOVE
!. W. Whites Views on the Dip,
Eradication, Education Movement
---Fayers Good Roads.

There is no question but what
We who have stock Of various
kinds. should with the utmost care,
use every means to rid them OF
ticks, flies, lice, and ourselves OF
bed bugs; but with all due respect
to man and beast. is our govern
ment giving US the best devices on
plans to be governed by? The
writer thinks not. from things
seen and heard. We take the dip
ping vat. 1t is a place dug out
about seven or eight feet in the
ground; then cemented with rocks
and sand; then filled with the creo-
sote preparation. which in my esti-
nation, is good when properly
applied.
You take anything with two eyes
and the smallest bit of brains and
drive it up in front of this aw-
ful sinking place and they become
frightened and will resist going
into such an awful place. Then
follows what the writer does not
favor the beating of the poor crea-
lures cruelty. to make them jump
off into place that often proves
death to them and loss to the own
ers.
Fellow citizens. cannot we devise
better way of administering the
medicines by using the spray,
sponge or brush and not endanger
so much loss on our stock. Say,
We purchase a few gallons of dip
yearly and then use the same twice
a week until We get the desired
result, and do away with this ex-I
pense that will cost the tax payer
of Lincoln county thousands of dol
lars, or shall we be foolish enough
to advocate for the other man a.
soft job and we ourselves do all of
the hard work and just keep howl
ing and paying higher taxes!
| say think seriously for your
selves; vote this stump hole busi-
ness down at the sitting ofthe next
Board of Supervisors. Look Uncle
Sam straight in the face and say.
LET US have better roads, better
schools and more beef" but be
sure you help vote these cemented
holes out of Lincoln county.
Yours respectfully,

The truth is, Bro. White, if the
people had looked after their own
interests-their stock in this in
stance-the government would
never have taken a hand and no
man would have secured a t'soft
job" in administering its medi-
cine. The object is to RID THE
CATTLE OF TICKS, and the in
difference of owners has brought
about the present cause of COM
plant.
As to modes of treatment, the
writer had yearling infested with
ticks, although it had always been
kept In a private enclosure. 1t
took tick fever and was in sad
plight. One thorough application
of creso dip sufficed: and the calf
is a valuable Jersey today. In the
application, the calf was thrown
down and washed off with the
liquid diluted. and has never been
troubled since. Creso dip should
have permanent place wherever
hogs and cattle and horses are kept.
1t keeps off ticks and flies and lice
as well.
As to the suffering of the ami
mails driven into the dipping vat,
it cannot possibly exceed the weary
days and months of unreIenting
attack made upon the dumb brutes
heretofore by the persistent cattle
tick and cannot cause more deaths,
to say nothing of the infection of
human beings through the use of
the milk from cows. If there is a
more humane way to gain the end
sought it should be known and
used, as Mr.. White suggests.

time last Thursday night by ghoulish
vandals, and. as no motive can be as.

discuss the subject.
1t is the custom of the Stoeckle family
to have a woman put fresh flowers in an
urn in the mausoleum three times a
week, and when she went to perform
this duty on Friday morning she was
shocked to find that vandals had at
tackled the tomb. Stained glass windows
in the rear were smashed, the iron door
in front was twisted nearly of its
hinges. and two busts inside had been
removed from their pedestals. One OF
them was shattered on the floor. and
the other was found thirty feet away.
Apparently no attempt had been made
to violate the dead, as entrance to the
vault had not been effected.
In the tomb are bodies of the mother
and father of Harry ]. Stoeckle, the
millionaire president of the Joseph
Stoeckle Brewing Company. and It also
is the resting place of the bodies OF his
sister and his first wife.
