why the railroads should not be taxed
to help build the county roads. The
same may be said of the manufacturer
and the city merchant who are doing
business with the farmers their in
terests are bound up in his interests.
If one suffers, both suffer. The United
States is great big family, and what
we need is family prosperity; those
things done that make for the best
good of all concerned. There is moth
ing that contributes more to this than
good highways. They enrich country
life and make the farm home more

Investigation shows that at least
four-fifths OF the traffic on the high
ways passes over about one-fourth of
the road mileage; that certain roads
have heavy traffic. These are the
ones that need the first attention and
should be permanently improved. We
find the same thing in our railway sys-
TENS. Take the trunk lines. Here is
a great city where trains are moving
every thirty minutes, and with an
enormous trafic and wear. These
roads must have heavy rails. well bal

LOOKING AFTER YOUNG SoWS
Best Plan Is to Have Them Farrow Az
ter Grass and Glover Start to
Secure Good Pasturage.

In nearly all cases the first litter is
the hardest draft on the system of the
dam and for this reason, If no other,
the young sows should have special
care. 1t is best, so far as can be done
to have the young sows farrow after
grass and clover have made a good
start, as there are few things better,
than plenty of good pasturage, to en-
able a dam to produce milk. and a
young SOW II she is TO suclle her lit
ter of pigs well, must have food well
adapted to milk production. A sow
should always be so gentle that In
case 1t becomes necessary, she can be
handled without unduly exciting her.
1t is never good policy to disturb a
SOW at narrowing, unless absolutely
necessary. AS a precaution against
her eating her pigs, she should have a
light opening ration for few days be-
fore farrowing and then a bucket Of
warm slop ready for her whenever she
gets up. Be careful about over-feed-
ing her for the first three or four days
and then gradually increase her ra-
tions until she Is given all that she
will readily eat up clean. After the
pigs are week old. she may be al

slop regularly at least two times day
and three times is still better. Be

ROADS
EXPENSE SHOULD BE DIVIDED
Railroads should Share With Farmer
Cost Of Building and Proper Main
tsnance Of Roads.
CBy HOWARD H. GROSS,


In a large sense the building Of
road should be local matter; that is,
no community should have good roads
forced upon them, and the building OF
the roads should not begin until the
majority Of the people living In a com
munity want TO undertake Il. Let the
voers OF the township or the county
press the button that puts the ma
chinery in action.
II also would be well to remember
that the roads are public property and
belong to everyone. The farmers
ought not to pay all the taxes for
building and maintaining the roads,
they are the feeders for the railway
lines. 1t is all important to the rail-
ways that the highways shall be kept

Close quarters are not the thing for
sheep, summer or winter.
AS the hard work eases up on the
horses, cut down their feed accord
ingly.
Sheep thrive wherever dry footing
may be found. Keep them off the wet
lands.
A long, rangy SOW is fitted by nature
to care for mere pigs than a short
chunked one.
In the hog yard and pens cleanliness
is not only next to godliness, but II is
the price Of profit.

duced the largest number of pounds Of

Some men get into the sheep bust
ness by taking a small flock on shares,

preciates the value Of good, strong
and well matured breeding animals.

for which a penalty will have to

was granted, Trustee Chinn being

Chinn's objection was that there
are other places that should have
lights which cannot be supplied
for the lack Of funds, and he was
not in favor Of one without the
other. He said the people from

and jo|Iification

The concert given by the NJ. L.

was largely attended as all such
entertainments given by the choir
usually are. The house was crowd

It was union meeting of all the

recent dry" victory.
The music rendered by the choir
was very pleasing though unfor.
tunately, two numbers, the ladies'
quartet and Mr.. James number
was omitted because of serious
throat troubles on account of colds.
At the close Of the musical part
of the program, Rev. Cooper
made a short talk Of exultation
over the recent great victory for
prohibition and stated that already
he could hear the tramping Of the
mighty hosts in their marching
''On to Washington"
He was followed by j. +. White,
who was 80 rejoiced that he could
scarcely contain himself as he
pointed out the great gain the pro.

the country and also in Jefferson

attributed much of the victory to
the Sunday meetings In Colorado
Springs and in Denver, and also
to the country prrsa. He paid the

Rev. Dametz Of the Prcsbyter-
Ian church was also heard from
and gave an interesting talk along
the game line.
Mrs. X. G. Greene, president OF
the jefferson county organization,
was then called on and gave an
interesting history Of the prog
ress Of the work in the county.
The watchword seemed to be
that the fight has only begun in
the state, that it would now be ne.
cessary to watch the legislature

made, and next to see that they
are enforced.
In this connection 1t may be
well to state that already there

the plans Of the prohibitionists by
raising technical points. In the
