IN THE MEANTIME, DRAG.
So Advises WaIlaces' Farmer i'm the
Following Article.

Even if we were all agreed as &c
just what kind of hard-surfaced roads
to build, and If we had the money
all ready, it would be a long time
before we would actually have the
roads. Since we are not agreed on
the best thing to do, and since we do
not yet have the money to do i,
with, it is evident that on most Of
our roads we must get along for some
time to come with the material which
nature used in building them origin
ally.
The experience of the past six or
eight years has shown that of all the
implements used for road building,
the simple drag, which any man can
make, is the best. Intelligent and
persistent use of the drag will keep
our common earth roads in excellent
condition most of the time.
The earlier we begin to drag the
roads, the better roads VIC will have
this summer. The spring has been
favorable. The frost has gone out of
the ground very gradually, and our
roads are in much better condition
than usual at this time of the year.
What they need is smoothing up,
filling the ruts, and giving them q
rounded surface, so that the rain
will be carried off as soon as it
comes. While we have provisions
for systematic dragging at public
expense, the man who really wants
a good road along his farm, will not
wait for the official dragger. He will
get out his own drag, and in an
hours time, more or less, will make
his road decent road.
1t is reasonable to expect that
those who are unalterably opposed
to any effort looking toward hard
surfaced roads will be the first to
use the drag, and the most persis-
tent in its use. OF course, most of
us have observed that the folks who
complain most against giving money
to foreign missions, on the ground
that We should look after our own
folks at home, are the ones who give
the least toward home missions. Let
us hope, however, that this spirit
will not apply to the making better
of our earth roads.
In cities, we find that the easy and
cheap way to keep the sidewalks
clean is for each householder to
sweep in front of his own home. In
the country, we can have good earth
roads if each landowner will drag
along his own land.

l.. c. BAND CONCERT.
Will Be Given at Grand or Friday
May IL, by the Concert Band.

Among other selections from the
large new repertoire of the Luther
College Concert Band, the Largo,
from Dvorak's 9TH Symphony, From
The New World" will be rendered
at the annual concert in the opera
house on May u.
The symphony from which this
part is taken created an unusual stir
throughout the musical world at the
time Of its first production. It's COM
poser, Antonin Dvorak, soJourned in
America from 1925 as a teacher Of
composition at the National Ameri-
can Conservatory of Music at New
York. 1t was during his stay in
America that he became interested
in the quaint plantation songs of the
South. He heard the negros singing
while at work, and there was some
thing in the peculiar rhythms that
struck his (European) ear as novel,
and the symphony From The New
World" had its beginning.
The Largo" is the second move
ment of this symphony. 1t starts with
few mysterious chords in the brass
choir after which the oboe takes up
the theme and sings, as it were, a
lovely melody.
One writer has aptly called this
movement Moonlight Night on the
Prairie" for it is variously colored
tone-picture.
Another has said that Longfellow's
poem "Hiawatha" inspired DR.. Dvor-
ak to write this movement. The fact
of the matter is however that much
of the inspiration is right from our
own state OF Iowa, as a part of this
movement was composed while Dvor-
ak was visiting with relatives in
Spillville, Iowa.
Besides the theme in the first part
of the movement there is another of
peculiar languor and toward the end
a striking episode ensues which is
strangely in contrast with the sere-
nifty of the rest. Here three themes
are intoned at once and enc is in
voluntarily reminded of the awaken
ing of animal life on the prairie.

and 50-cent tea instead Of bacon ii

This was the way Henry Mazanti
expressed himself yesterday regard
ing a bill of $2.25 for bacon furnish
ed to the poor OF Black Hawk coua-
ty which the board of supervisors
had refused to pay He was much
surprised and chagrined when told
he would receive no pay for the ba-

The diet of the poor of the county,
it seems, is regulated by hard and
fast rule, which must not be chang
ed under any circumstances. The
only kind of meat the poor are allow
ed to eat apparently is rib boilins
meat, one of the very cheapest cuts
sold; pork is strictly forbidden
food.
1t cost Mr.. Mazanti just 1925 TO
learn this as he was not in possess
ion OF the official list of foods com
prising the sustenance for the poor
of the county. He feels that he has
been unjustly dealt with in being de-
MED payment for the bacon.
The county board issues official
lists of foods for the poor with a
note attached which reads: No bills
will be allowed by the board which in
cludes any other articles than these
named in this list
The list does not include butter.
butterine is good enough for the poor
mans bread and it is distinctly speci-
fled that 2J-cent coffee and 5O-cent
tea with milk must be the beverages
used. The list consists of some
twenty-five articles including salt,
soap, matches, kerosene oil, and yeast
foam.

that the $4,000 invested In these
machines could have been spent to
better advantage. The voting ma
chine in the rural district and the
small town is very expensive lux

be claimed for it is that the result
