Give Your
Farm a Name

The custom Of naming the
the farm is spreading all over
the United States. Iowa is
probably ahead of other states
at present but its lead is
threatened. Farmers are not
naming their places for mere
sentiments sake, although
that has lot to do with the
choice Of names. The farmer
recognizes the advertising val
ne that good farm name ere
ates. Charles Dillon, Of the
Kansas Agricultural College,
pointed to this feature when
he said:
Why don't you advertise,
Mr.. Farmer! Get a name for
your farm and then advertise
your farm by that name. Sup
pose you choose the name Fair

is known and the people will

THAW IS
HOPEFUL
Already He Has Begun Making Prep.
arations To Visit Friends In
New Hampshire

Concord, n. H., Jan. 12.-Harry
X. Thaw, elated by the report of the
federal court commission that his re-
lease on bail would not endanger pub
lie safety, remained in his apartment
a. a local hotel today receiving mes
sages of congratulations and planning
a series of visits within the state in
the event that Federal Judge Aldrich
allow him his freedom under bonds.
The next move in the case will be
the filing by Thaw's counsel OF a pc
t,tion asking thai the amount of bail
be fixed and a date for a hearing on
the question.
Thaw and his attorneys are still at
work preparing "a brief ordered by
Judge Aldrich last month in the mat
ter of extradtion and to which Will
liam T. Jerome special deputy attor-
ney general of New York will reply
before the final court hearing Is held.
Several attorneys conversant with the
federal court procedure agreed today
that Thaw. II released under bonds
would be immune in every part Of
the federal jurisdiction from arrest
by state authorities In connection
with the murder of Stanford White
or his escape from Matteawan pend.
Ing the final disposition Of the habeas
corpus proceedings in the federal
court. 1t was suggested by one Of the
lawyers that it might be advisable
for the prisoner to keep out Of New
York as he might be detained there
on some technicality though he prob
ably would be able later to obtain his
release by a writ of hsbeas corpus.

CONCRETE AND GRAVEL ROADS
Time VIII Come When Permanently
In rhosovehfarss VIII Be More
Highly Appreciated Than Nov.

A prominent good roads advocate DO
longing to the American association
says: 1T IL waste Of time to build
roads of anything better than gravel
and not 20 good as concrete" BY
which he means that II the road Is to
to be anything less than absolutely
permanent, 1t should be OF gravel or
plain earth. One thing is sure the au-
tomobiles are putting macadam roads
in the category Of things which will
not do, says the Baltimore American.
Concrete roads built over 20 years
ago have been kept in repair under
country-town conditions at an annual
expense rate Of SIS mile and are
still better than any macadam road
is likely to be In one-tenth the time
In this age of rubber tired vehicles.
The ideal road would seem TO be a
narrow concrete roadway with earth
or gravel ways at the sides, The mo.
tor cars will follow the concrete. and
in ordinary going the drivers who con
slider their hoTssa feet Will keep on
the pleasanter and softer track at the
side. In bad weather all could use the
narrow concrete roadway with earth
gravel road should run alongside every
macadam, brick or concrete way, II
keens teams off the motor path and
makes pleasanter going for both horse
and horseman. The time will come
when permanency In our roads viii
be more highly appreciated and work
ed far more generally

TARIFF QUESTION

Hooray! The new tariff is stimulat-
ing industry. Twenty-four thousand
head OF American sheep in one flock
alone have been sold to a Canadian
and in due time their wool and NUT
ton will come back to us across the
border under Democratic free trade.
Possibly we may buy these products
a trine cheaper, and then again we
may not. But suppose we should
save, say, 10 per cent on repurchas-
ing. What becomes of the other 80
per cent Of our money? There Is the
real tariff question for you and the
one that is always uppermost in the
mind Of any American who is a pa.
triot and in favor of building up his
own country in preference to foreign
lands Nevada, Mo-, Herald.

STATES CENTER
OF POPULATION
STATE. COLLEGE COMPUTES THIS
FROM LAST CENSUS TO BE
NEAR DANFORTH, HAND
COUNTY,.

Brookings, s. D.-The center Of
population in South Dakota is 40
miles south and 1925 miles west of
Huron, and aboue five miles north
west of Danforth in Hand county.
This has been ascertained by junior
class mathematicians in the State
college, under the direction of Prof.
Clifford N. Mills, and is based upon
the last census.
According to the calculations Of
the students and Professor Mills, the
center of population in 1890 was 1874
miles south of Huron and about IN
miles west of Medas. In 1900 it was
up to II miles houth and 6 miles
west of Huron and about 2 miles
northeast of Alpena. The general mo-
ton of the center of population is
North and West.
"The method of making these cal
culations is somewhat complicated"
says Professor Mills. "The method
may be summed up as follows. Take
a vertical and a horizontal boundary
as given axes. Multiply the number
of people in each county by the dis
lance of the center of gravity of the
county from these respective axes.
Find the sum total of all the products
and divide this sum by the total pop
ulation of the state. This quotient
gives the distance of center of popula
ton from the given axes, thus locat-
ing the point"
