IT'S TINE TO CUT WEEDS.
Law States All Weeds Should BE Cut
Between the Date of July
Is and August 10.

Have you cut the weeds around
your property? If you haven't it's
high time you were at it. The law
states that all property owners
should cut down the obnoxious weeds
between the dates of July ID and
August Is. This means on both the
inside and outside of your property
and applies to the cities and country
alike. In the towns the city council
is to see to it that this law is enfOrc-
ed and in the rural districts the town
ship trustees are the ones to look
after the enforcement of the law.
Ii the property owners refuse to
do this work the proper authorities
are authorized 10 have it done and
charge it to the property and have
same collected the same as any other
tax. Everybody, however, should
take enough pride in his place to
want to keep it clean-and most
people do. Just now is the best time
to cut the weeds because OF the fact
that the cutting is more apt to kill
them during the hot weather. Do
your part in helping to keep the city
and country in an attractive and
healthy condition.

FARMERS HAUL HOGS IN AUTOS.

Council Bluffs, Ia, July 24.-Tho

Gently suspended operations and it

the first to make any extensive use of
the motors marketed one car load of
hogs this week
Seven trucks were sent out from
Council Bluffs at night and an early
start made for market, the run to
South Omaha being made in two and
one-half hours. a charge of %
cents per hundred pounds was made
and it is declared that both the ship
per and the owner OF the trucks
made a good thing.
The hogs reached the market ear
ly and did not suffer from the heat.
Later in the week five other farmers
handled their hogs in the same man
ner, one man marketing a full car
load by auto truck.

FAIR TIME AGAIN.
The Purpose of Our Own Festival and
a History OF Some Others.

Why is fair? We can't all answer
that from single viewpoint. 1t
means something different to practic-
ally every one of us. There is no
doubt, though, that the feeling OF
gayety is universal-even to those
who must work like Turks to make
the occasion a success.
The man or woman with a crouch
has no business at our fair this year.
You must go prepared to enjoy the
blare of band music and the million
noises that aren't music. You must
be keyed up to revel in the sight of
thousands Of chattering holiday max
ers, of bright decorations, of pretty
girls, of sideshows and ballyhoos, of
popcorn balls in rcd tissue and sweat
ing glasses of orangeade, of sizzling
sandwiches and ice cream cones, Of
live stock and household and nipple
ment displays, of pattering trotters
and PAGERS and running horses, of
buzzing grandstand, of golden sun
shine and yellow dust-clouds. Yes,
and tired feet and whimpering babies
with heat-rash ard smart alexis here
and therefor we haven't reached
the land Of perfection yet.
Now let's peel the surface off the
situation and see what's inside. This
years fair is going to be a pretty fine
advertisement for our whole commu-
nity-the surrounding farm lands
and farmers, the town and it's enter
prising, public-spirited merchants.
/ And really that is the rock bottom
purpose OF holding a fair-advertis-
ing. 1t is a community aim and eff
fort to show its people how much
they amount to, and to show outsid-
ers that this is mighty good pl:-o
to live prosperous, progressive
country and neighborly people. A
man looking for place in which to
settle down couldn't reasonably ask
for anything more or better.
The folks of this community I'M
derstand one another. Our farmers
know the town business men with
whom they deal. Our business men
are pretty we'll acquainted with most
OF the people who come into their
Istores. Now we want to snow-all
OF us-our spirit of kindliness and
Intelligence to the strangers within
our gates during the festival season.
1t is the best sort of advertising We
can put forth.
1t is inestimabiy worth while to Us
| if visitors go home and say: Il al
ways like to attend their fair. The
-lr7hole town seems to wiggle its latch
siring at me. And they're the
'whitest' people.-go out of their

ALASKA FLEET BUSY

For the first time in years the steamship Victoria is in the Alaska winter service of the' Alaska Steam ship Co.,, instead of being tied up
 at the East Waterway. With the exception of two of the smaller ves- sells of the company, the entire fleet is now engaged, the Seward being chartered for two trips to Vladi- vostok. Vice-President Baxter and Superintendent R. R. Pierson left for the east during the month to accept the Valdez and Juneau, which have been undergoing exten- sive repairs and are being loaded with cargo for the West Coast.
 Repairs to the hull of the Mari oosa have about been completed at the plant of the Seattle Construc- tion 6 Dry Dock Co. and that steam ship will leave soon for Esquimalt, where alterations and work on her interior and house will be completed at the Yard of Yarrows, Ltd.
 Under direction of the company's force at Pier 2, the s. s. Alaska is being greatly altered. The pilot house, chart room and officers quarters have been lifted to a posi- tion similar to the arrangement on the other vessels of the fleet, thus gaining dozen aditional rooms for passengers on the forward promen- ade deck. A spacious observation room has been built aft and the en- tire interior is being repainted, re- fitted and refurnished. This yes sel will be ready to go into regu- lar service February 29.-Railway and Marine News.

WE SHOULD BITE THE BUBBLE

When laws were passed in New York and other Sates prohibiting the use of the common drinking cup there was great satisfaction among the people who have the good sense to appreciate the impor- tance of guarding against the spread of infectious diseases
 But although the abolition of the common drinking cup was a long step in the right direction, there still remains seE;ous menace to health to the improper construction and the improper use of the bubble drinking fountain. Inspectors of the United States Public health League, who have been investigat- ing the matter finds much to criti- cize in the way the public uses these fountains. An Inspector sat beside one in railway station for an hour the other day, and here is what he saw:
 Forty-seven different persons, of whom eleven were men, Twenty-two were women and fourteen were children, used the bubbling foun- tain. In almost very case the lips were placed almost completely around the metal ball from wfich the water spurted, and one small boy seemed as if he wer, trying to swallow it. Several of the men obviously were chewclg tobacco. Of the forty-seven peoee four were cclored, three looked as thougL trey might have tuberculosis anl three had an eruption upon the face.
 Quite plainly when used in this way, bubble fountain is little less dangerous than a common drinking cup would be.

ADRIFT
 IS IDENTIFIED
AS THAT OF THE OLD VOLANTE WELL KNOWN IN THE
 ALASKA WATERS
(From P.-I.)

(Fr0m P.-l.)
 The derlict sighted adrift 230 miles off triangle island on January 28, by Capt. K. Chiba, master of the Japanese steamer Kumi Maru, now in Seattle from ports in the Far East, is the storm-battered wreck of the two masted schooner Vol ante, famous in years gone by as an Arctic trader.
 It was first believed that the yes sel was the codfishing schooner Maid of Orleans, of Seattle, but Robert c. Hill, manager of the Mer- chants Exchange, and shipping men along the water front yesterday af- ternoon from casualty reports at hand, proved beyond a doubt that the dereict is the Volante.
 The Volante, laden with a cargo of salt and empty barrels, left Pet ersburg for Sitka in tow of the gas tug Penguin and Gjoa on January 6. A great northerly gale was blowing and the Volante broke a. drift at the entrance to Chatham Strait.
 After considerable difficult the tugs succeeded in taking off the schConer's master, Capt. John A. Einmo, formerly Seattle fish deal CT, and her crew of five men. Car ried faster and faster before the gale the Volante drifted southward past Cape Ommaney and then out to sea. Capt. Einmo and his men were taken to Petersburg, where the loss of the Volante was reported.
 The Volante was owned by M. B. Dahl, who purchased her about two years ago from Capt. Backland, who operated her for several years be- tween Seattle and Point Barrow, Icy cape and the trading stations of the Arctic. She was under charter of the Pacific Mild Cure Company, of which F. Erickson, of Seattle is secretary.
 J. E. Shields, secretary of the Pacific Coast Goldfish Company, fear ing that the derelicet might be the codfishing schooner Maid of Orleans owned by his company, obtained a complete description of the desert ed vessel from Capt. Chiba, of the Kumi Maru, and was convinced that she was the Volante, which he knew very we'll.
 The derelict had long main boom and gaff and no house fo,- ward She was painted black. The Maid of Orleans has a green tull and is rigged entirely different from the ill-fated Volante.

 in mind that the object of this san itary device is to prevent the inter- change of mouth secretions. When mucous and other matter becomes attached to metal it sometimes re- quires considerable force to remove it, and this is not always accomp- lished by slowly moving current of water.
 Bite the bubble" is the only safe rule to follow. The lips should never be allowed to touch any part of the fountain, and under no con- ditions should the fountain be used for expectorating or for rinsing the mouth.
