Mr.. Wootton. who has been In

The past week the County Commits
sioners met and let the contract f,r
erecting the new steel bridge over
Jordan River, just north Of Colleges
The Midland Bridge company were
the low bidders, their price being
$4,3S0, The other bids were: Provo
Foundry and Machine Co., $1,000;
James J. Burke and Co, 1924; Leyey
Construction Co., $5,0S7; Minneapolis
Steel Machine Co, $4,774.
A contract for similar bridge over
Provo River, at about the same price,
was also let.
Work on the bridge should com
mence at once. but may be delayed
because OF some difficulty in securing
the right of way. Those generally In
terested wanted the bridge located at
the end Of the Reeves lane, about u
half mile north OF where the County
selected. The County gives as rea-
son for the site chosen, that they in
tend some time in the future TO build
another bridge north Of the Interur-
ban bridge, and that then the one
for which the contract was recently
let would be about midway between
the one on Cedar Fort road and the
lnterurban bridge.

CLIPPING HORSES

Practise Has Proved of Great
Benefit to Health and vigor
of Work Animals.

Clipping during the hot season of
the year has proved Of great benefit
to the health, comfort and vigor of
work horses. thus adding to their
beauty, value and usefulness. The
horse that has been Idle all winter
very seldom gets the grooming that he
deserves, says Spirit of the West. and
as a consequence. his hair grows long
and thick and the pores of the skin
become clogged With dust and dirt
The change from idleness In cold
weather to that Of long days OF hard
work in rapidly advancing tempera-
lures means a great deal of unneces-
sary discomfort from the heat If the
horse has thick coat. He is in about
the same condition a man would be II

VALUABLE HINTS
FOR THE GARDENER
Machine Wheel Hoe Makes Work
Real Pleasure-Hoe Is Excel
} lent Tool for Dry Weather.

The machine wheel hoe is a great
thing in the garden. 1t makes garden
work real pleasure if you have one
of The modern combined drill and
whAl-hoe arrangements. They are not
costly, and not hard to operate. Any
one that has garden as big as town
lot can afford to have one, as it will
save it's cost the first season and will
last for 20 years. You can do as much
work with them as ten men with hand
hoes, and do it better.
You can get the machine of any
seed man and can generally get them
delivered. freight paid, at the list
price.
In the garden you can still plant
cucumbers for pickles, late cabbage
turnips, celery (plants), lettuce, rad
ishes, beans and peas for succession,
sweet corn for late market. and In
fact. you can take your choice OF
lot of stuff yet White field beans do
best planted the first half of June.
They are a paying crop. too. Drill
them in on any good ground, at the
rate of from two to three pecks to the
acre.
A small box of convenient height,
makes a comfortable seat and may be
readily moved from place to place. 1t
saves tired knees.
The five-cent cotton gloves used by
men make cheap and effective pro-
lection for the hands, more comfort
able. and more quickly adjusted than
those which fit.
The hoe is a better tool in dry
weather than the hose. Cabbage.
onions, tomatoes and cucumbers can
scarcely have the soil too rich. A
rich, light loan, with sunny slope,
ia an ideal spot for melons. Beans
will grow on poorer soil and still
thrive.
If the plants are all growing nice
Iy do not wait for them to halt for
lack of food. but dig hole between
the hills and put in some poultry
house fertilizer
Lettuce will bear transplanting nice
ly and as the plants come up they
should be thinned out to five or six
inches apart, or they will become
weak and spindling.
A border of lettuce around the edge
of the onion bed makes a dainty gar
nish, and proves quite help In keep
ing the table supplied. Transplant at
night, or on rainy day. and keep well
watered for few days. II the roots
soak in water few hours before re
planting they are much less likely to
wilt.
Young beets may also be thinned
and transplanted in the same way. but
1t is better policy to SOW the rows as
long as are wanted. and use the sur
plus for greens.

Revolutionary Patriot.

James Lowell. distinguished pa
triot of the Revolution. died 100 years
ago In the town of Windham, Me. Mr..
Lowell was born in Boston In 1887 and
graduated from Harvard college at
the age of fourteen. He delivered.
April 2, 1771. the Grafton before the
town authorities on the Boston mas
sacre. Because of his display of pa
triotism he was imprisoned by Gen
eral Gage Immediately after the battle
of Bunker Hill. Subsequently he was
conveyed to Halifax with the British
army, and remained in confinement
until exchanged for Governor Skene in
the latter part of 1776 From 1776
until 1882 Mr.. Lowell was member of
the Continental congress. In later life
he filled number of public Offices in

though he can be spoiled by stufflng
him with corn. He thrives on clover,
and If allowed to run in fields Of
sweet peas, rape and alfalfa. produces
the sweetest and best balanced hog
meat that is known.
The Tamworth is particularly fond
of raw potatoes, pumpkins and roots
OF all kinds to which the average type
of fat hog is not partial
During the past few years a very
large trade in American hams has
sprung up in Europe. particularly Eng
land. The consumer over there de-
mands a small ham and our Amer
lean packers are endeavoring to edu-
cate farmers to the idea of curing
hogs that will average around 15O
pounds. Matured hoga that will weigh
less are even more eagerly sought
The truth is that our best hams are
sent to England; it is not an easy mat
ter to obtain these small, well bal
anced hams in this country. and we
are forced to take the big, fat hog
ham, with the trimmings, and hypno-
tie ourselves into the belief that we
are eating the real thing, or let them
alone.
1t is not likely that the ideal small
ham will ever be produced In large
quantities in the corn belt, for the rea-
son above stated; we may expect the
best hogs of this type to come from
the South. where they feed less corn
and more peas and clover.
Some farmers down there are be-
coming rich. raising Tamworths and
small Berkshires for the express pur-
pose of producing the ideal hams. and
they obtain very high prices for this
type of hog.
