Auto Drives Ferry Boat.

For crossing bay twenty miles wide
connected at each end with fine
driving beach along the seashore, a
motorist Of Aberdeen, Wash. uses a
barge built for less than 500 and 50
equipped that it can be driven by the
automobile that 1t transports across the
water. The autoferrying barge is
shown in the cover design of the
August Popular Mechanics Magazine
A propeller that is housed for safety,
is located at each side Of the barge
near the stern. The axle Of each
wheel is at the right height to come in
line with the rear car axle when the
end of the car is raised few inches
above the deck of the barge. and is
capped with a hardwood wheel, eight
cen inches in diameter and two inches
thick. On each wheel are leather
clamps for securing 1t to the spokes Of
the car wheel. With the rear Of the
car raised so that the wheels are clear
of the deck and these wheels connected
with the propellers by the straps, the
barge is ready for operation by the en-
CINE of the automobile. The work Of
placing the car aboard the barge and
making it ready for use requires about
eight minutes.

JOE ALIENS ROAD PLAN.

Senator Joe Allen, candidate for the
republican nomination for governor
believes that the time has arrived in
Iowa for the building of hard surfaced
roads and true to the constructive
capacities which have made him sue
cessful banker and farmer he has a
plan for doing the business.
Pocahontas county, in which Senator
Allen lives, has been redeemed from
the swamps under Iowa's drainage dis
trict law until the drainage projects in
that county alone have amounted to
several millions of dollars and Joe
Allen has owned land and conducted
banking business thru 1t all.
He believes that the special assess
ment road Improvement district is the
way to build hard surfaced roads but
age district bonds has taught him that
there is a better way to obtain the
cheapest money for permanent public
improvements. He would have the
state OF Iowa issue its state bonds in
per cent market and loan the money
to the districts which have been paying
per cent for drainage bonds. If this
were done the 2 per cent saved would
pay off the debt in twenty years and
all the paved road would have cost the
land owners would have been the 5
per cent interest for twenty years. He
Is paying more than that now in dirt
road taxes.
Mr.. Allen said that he was one Of
the first land owners in his county to
sign a petition for a drainage district
and that IL started one Of the biggest
local rows ever known to that COM
wanted his land improved. He pre-
dicted that in the beginning road i'm
provement districts would stir up
trouble but in the end would become
so popular that everybody would want
them.
Mr.. Allen has made a large fortune
out Of land. He owns much land now.
He has been successful at banking. In
the legislature ne was leader in con-
structtve legislation SO that his views
as to road improvement are worthy Of
attention. It is the big, constructive
men OF the country who see ahead Of
the crowd in all things. Whatever such
a man is consulted he will tell you
that the greatest opportunity for build
ing up land values in Iowa and develop
ing ideal home conditions upon the
farm as well as business Improvement
for the towns lies in the hard sur
faced road.

FOOL GIRLS AND AUTO Washers.

Trouble at Sioux City with the auto
mobile masher, road houses and the
downfall of foolish girls suggests q
danger which is present in every town.
The police matron at Sioux City says
that so many girls are Just crazy" to
an easy prey to the nhertine who
drives up and invites them to ride. It
seems that there are houses on the
outskirts of town to which these
parties go for amusement. Liquor.
license and a ruined life follow in quick
succession.
Sioux City is not alone in its dan
ger to silly girls who will not realize
that they are being hunted as prey.
1t has been said in Marshalltown that
a young man has been knowa to invite
girls to ride in his gaudy automobile
and then when far out in the country
give them the alternative of submitting
dark over strange roads.
Mothers and parents should warn
maidens of the auto masher. People
generally witnessing suspicious cir
cumstances should spread the alarm.
Officials aware of the masher should
not hesitate to warn him TO expect the
limit Of the law when caught in his
devsltry. In fact SO many young girls
are fools that they should be treated
as such by society.
The auto masher is out to destroy
them. They should be kept out of
automobile parties unless the young
man is well known and thoroughly
trusted. Girls who pick up with
strangers and go riding upon invita-
ton without the close acquaintance
that would justify their acceptance in
vite the man TO attempt anything be-
cause men know that self respecting
girls would not go with them. If girls
would only know that men look upon
them as fools or immoral when they
accept unwarranted advances they
would realize that to ride with an auto
nasher is the next thing to putting up
at a hotel with a strange man.

PASSING OF THE RIDICULOUS.

After full trial and plenty Of ex-
perience the state Of Illinois has gone
out Of the game farm business Gov
ernor Dunno vetoed the necessary ap-
preparation bill and the game farm at
Auburn is no more. Game birds will
be turned loose on leased land to fly
or die but the state will abandon the
game farm as such.
The state Of Iowa in time will learn
the utter futility Of attempting to
propagate game in a country which is
10 longer wild enough to permit wild
birds to thrive. The hunters license
money amounting to $4,000 or more
per annum must be used and in the
absence OF any bette: provision by
the legislature the state game warden

1t would be far better for all con-
cerned If Iowa were to prohibit the
killing Of the prairie ana bush birds
altogether and use its hunters money
to preserve the lakes with wild parks
around them. The preservation Of the
lakes and abolition Of spring shooting
would soon cause the wild water fowl
to harbor in Iowa and at any rate In
the years that are to come the people
of this state will enjoy their lakes far
in excess Of any pleasure that can
come to few from hunting.
The generation Of middle aged men
now living are the last Of the hunters Of
Iowa. The boys Of today are getting
along very we'll with no knowledge Of
game other than rabbits and it is but
a few years now until the demand for
game propagation on the part Of the
citizen who loves to hunt will have
passed away. What Is the use in try
ing to turn time back in its flight?
This is a settled country and 1t will
not tolerate barons who could MAIN
tain private game preserves. Game
hunting belongs to pioneer age which
has passed Hereafter men who must
indulge the call Of the wild will have
to so to South America just as their
forefathers left European shores for
the new country over here.
This is written by one who travels
across two states every year to enjoy
a hunt and is not the conclusion of
mollycoddle, but even a hunter must
be blind if he is unable to see the
change that has come over his
country.
Our streams and lakes can be stocked
with fish for that is practicable and
because money Of the hunters and
fishermen can we'll be spent in that way
but the propagation Of pheasants to
be fed to coyotes and dogs is worse
than joke. 1t is ridiculous.

BUSINESS WILL IMPROVE.

.
Success Of the last British war loan
had been predicted, but the subscrip-
tions were SO much heavier than had
been expected that much confidence
has been inspired thereby. The new
offering was made most attractive by
the high interest rate and the favorable
convertible feature, but the issue was
so enormous that the result VI the I'M
dertaking is little short OF marvellous.
There has been heavy selling Of other
securities including American stocks
and bonds for the purpose of subscrib-
ing to the new war loan; but this SELL
ing, it Is thought, has now been
checked to some extent.

war will come to an end much sooner

Two cabinet members and the speaker
of the house have already declared for
greater military preparedness. When
congress meets that will be the fore

that somebody else get ready TO do

COST OF ENs1LAaE IN SCOTT.

Tama county farmers will never
find the silo more advantageous than
the present season. Iowa never fails
in corn crop. but without late
fall it is quite probable that there
will be more soft corn this year than
usual. In Scott county, where $50 silos
are located, retailed survey Of los
from that number showed that the total
average cost ton for silage was $40.
while the men using the silos esti-
mated that the silage was worth $3.50
q ton, some Of them using it turnout
the year and others for six or eight
months only. The average capacity Of
Scott county silos is Ill tons and the
average cost 1894.

that reports Of transcontinental tour

mlred and delayed by Iowa's mud
roads would cease very shortly If the
state and counties would adopt the
