ROADS DRYING UP.
Prompt Work With Drag Will Serve
to Highways in Good Condition.

The roads have been drying up fast
this week and the mud on Main street
in Grangeville where it was slushy
about week ago has disappeared. The
side streets are drying up fast. The
same reports come in concerning the
roads out in the country. !.
Now is the time to get busy with
the road drags and smooth down the
clods and make good roads. With the
use of the drag and continuing warm,
dry weather for about week, the
can be packed down and
smoothed up so that travel will not be
as disagreeable as it has been for the
past few weeks. Early work on the
roads is important and insures good
travel throughout the summer. With
proper work the spring rains will not
effect the roads but will improve them.

OLD MAN BECOMES DERANGED.

w. S. Root, an old man who has
stopped around Sites for the past two
years came into town at l clock last
night and applied at the Hughes House
for lodging but was told that they had
no more rooms but as he appeared to
be indisposed to search further Mr..
Hughes allowed him to stay by the fire
until morning. The peculiar noise
which he made aroused the Hughes and
on investigation it was found that he
had secured a loaded rifle and was
guarding himself against someone who
was supposed to have killed his son
and was after him. Help was called
and Root disarmed and guard placed
over him until the sheriII could be
sent for to take him before the pro-
bate court. On going to press the
sheriff had not yet arrived but the
unfortunate man was being taken care
of by D. G. Howard and Sumner Stone

thousands of dollars in prizes on

taken by professional sheep showmen
Of other states. True, 1t has made a
fine display, and in an educational way
has had its value. But we need more
show from the flocks of Kansas
When Kansas man wants to buy
sheep, either for foundation purposesl
Or otherwise, he would prefer to buy
Of Kansas breeder, quality consid-l
cred, because of the short shipment.
We have number of good breeders,
and good sheep, in Kansas, and this

opportunity Of showing without hav-i
Ing to go up against the outside pro-
,essional sheep showmen.
There are prizes offered on the fol-
lowing breeds of sheep: Shropshires,
Hampshires, Cotswolds, Oxford Down,
Delaine Merinos, Southdowns and Dor
sets. The classification of each brood
Is as follows:
