ouAPAw AND PROSPECT.

There is in progress a we'll defined movement for the paving of Prospect and Quapaw avenues, a sort of revival of question that has been raised on several occasions before. but on such occasions usually met the vigorous approval of some alleged progressive citizens, Qew in number) however, who happened to be property owners of that district.
 The project carries with it the pay, ing off from Central avenue of one block of Reserve avenue west of Cen, tral, and one block of Exchange street from Reserve to Prospect; thence Prospect HiH,' and out Qua, paw and Prospect avenues.
 It seems it will tae this improve ment to designate within Hot Springs the principal residence street" There are innumerable nice homes on these avenues. Many of our foremost citizens reside on these avenues. High of altitude, it is a select portion of the city for residence purposes.
 It has been planned by those agi- tating the movement to use the Bitu- lthic or some such applicable paving for residence avenues, on the main portion of the streets, and to use grooved brick on the heavy grades
 1t is citizens of the district con cerned who are behind the movement and it is to be sincerely hoped that their ideals for municipal improve ment will not meet the aggressive op- position of the few who formerly have opposed such an improvement.

TANNING MILL IN COMMUNITY
Some Mechanically Inclined Farmer
Could Be Induced to Handle Out
ht-0io Time Saver.

By A.. d. WILSON. Extension superin-
tendent Minnesota Agricultural College.
Cereal Improvement IL part Of farm
progress. The methods to be used are
still unsettled in the minds Of many
farmers. The most technical and COM
plicated methods of plant breeding
must be left to experiment station
men who devote their lives to the
study Of the problem.
The tanning mill IL certainly prac-
teal on any grain growing farm. It
should be used to remove light kernels.
weed seed and trash. The heavier.
larger kernels selected BY the tanning
mill are usually more productive: and
al agree on getting rid Of the weed
esd and trash.
We have said that the tanning min
Wa practical on the average farm and
Il ought to b used there. One great
obstacle to such use arises from the
fact that few men know how to make
the tanning mill clean and grade the
grain - they want 1t to. Many have
had poor tanning mills. Others do not
have the necessary room to make
grain cleaning convenient
Why not clean grain In the same
way that We thresh Il? Every COM
munity has some mechanically in
clined farmer who can handle the fan
ming mill OUTFIT better than anyone
else In the community. Let him clean
and grade the grain. He can equip
. tight bottom. low wagon with two
good sised tanning mills operated with
belts BY . small gasoline engine. With
such IN equipment he might 60 from
harm TO farm, take the grain from the
bin. clean, grade and return II, al BY
the use Of machinery. The tanning
mill man may easily grade - - to
take out I'VE or ten Per cent. or more
Of the heaviest and rlumpest kernels
for seed. This would not seriously af.
iset the quality of the market grain.
The man who win put such . plan
into operation win b . real blessing
to the community. His work win result
In the use Of the tanning mill where Il
would not otherwise Be used. He win
save much hard work on the farms Of
those who would otherwise run the
tanning min By hand. 4 gasoline en-
CINE costing somewhere between $50
and 500 Vim do the work that might
Otherwise require hundreds Of days Of
labor ct the crank Of the tanning mill.
It II easy to conceive that he might
add greatly to the small grain yiAld
and profit Of the community.
