The Times-Herald hopes the
people will take the proper in
terest in the bond election to be
held next Saturday. Burns needs
water works and sewer system
and this will give the council a
chance to start such operations
as may seem to the best interests
to the town. Don't get the no.
tion that this is going to make
prohibitive taxes as it will not
effect the tax levy for several
years if at all. The proposition
of the railroad doesn't need to
enter into the matter as we shall
find ways and means to take
care of that matter when the
proper time comes. If Burns is
to continue as a school town and
a family home town we should
make it attractive to those seek
ing a place to make their homes
and educate their children under
favorable conditions.

a result of the brand inspection

of S. D. Correll, secretary of the

association. Mr.. Correll stated
that within the short time that
the law has been in operation, a
large number of cattle which
had strayed to other herds, had
been traced to their original
owners. In cases where this
straying might be aided by hui
man agencies, it would be just
as difficult for the animals to get
past the brand inspectors, and it

doubtless it will be visited by many
who now take it for granted as a
familiar and not especially important
feature of the downtown scene OF
Washington.
1t is important that until the garden
is removed with its wealth of botani-
cal treasures the fence that has stood
for so many years should be retained
to lessen the risk of trespass and
injury to the specimens. And 1t Is also
urged by Supt. Hess that when the
change is made to the new position a
conservatory be left standing in the
mark to give shelter to some Of the
tropical plants that would not bear
removal.
The Botanic Garden in an appropriate
setting like Rock Creek Park should
become one of the most attractive fea-
lures of Washington. There are excep-
tional opportunities there for the de-
velopment of botanical collection of
rare educational value. The present
ton of the garden has never been
suitable; the soil is not good, in the
first place, and has only been brought
to IT'S proper state of productiveness
by diligent care and cultivation. Now
the time has come for the change
to the park, where there will be an
to expand. The govern
ment should make a generous provi-
sion for the upkeep of this historic and
institution. In Rock Creek
Park it will be in close conjunction
with the arboretum now in course OF
there.
