DRAINING HIS FARM

The first one to attempt drainage of
their farm in this county. so far as
we know. is j. ". Lillibridge of Gle
ment township. John is putting in
two and n half miles of cement tiling,
enough to drain 400 acres of his
farm, with an outlet to the James
river. The drains run from BIZ. to
feet deep. The main tiling is S-inch,
with laterals of s-inch diameter.
Since taking hold of the farm John
has been bothered considerably with
going around sloughs and also in
having some of the lower land drown
ed out each year. He figured there
was enough loss on his low land to
pay for tiling his place. and this year
being an especially veXing one. de-
cided to go after il. He contracted
with a Fergus Falls surveyor. and
bought three cars of tile. and now
has the work well under way. He
feels already paid for the work in
that he can now drive heavy load
over some places on his farm where
the team and wagon could not go be-
fore.
II will cost him between 81 300 and
$1.40O for the work done this year.

H. Bush. A. p. Guy. w. X. Whitver,
Alva Brown. II. V. Hemenway and

ent parts of the county showed IL
greater unanimity of spirit for the
ticket than in former years. and the
prediction at this time is that Dickey
county will give every candidate on
the republican ticket majority.
At this meeting plans were made
for the coming campaign. and Judging
from the enthusiasm shown. the coun-
ty republicans plan on thorough.go-
ing campaign. and one that will carry
their candidates to victory. Where 1t
is found that certain candidates need
help in certain precincts. this help
will be forthcoming. and the work Of
the party. especially as regards the
national campaign. will be assisted by
noted speakers. who will appear in
the larger towns of the county. The
names of the speakers and the places
where they will speak. will be made
known later. The meeting was in
charge Of County Chairman Sullivan.
and in the absence of Secretary Shep.

Permit Refused To c. & P.
Telephone Company.

It is noted that the G. 4 P. Tele-
phone Company have been seeking
absolute rights Of way along county
roads, which the Commissioners have
refused to grant.
The telephone has gotten to be a
necessity and is no longer classed as
a luxury, and no doubt the Commits
sioners will not seek to impose any
burdens on the Company that would
prevent its lines being extended into
territory now not served.
The action of the Commissioners
in not giving absolute rights to the
public roads of the county was proper,
intact we are of opinion that they
have no power to grant such rights,
for the greater portion of our present
county roads are nothing more or less
than easements over private property
for the use of the public to travel on
same, and when the road is abandon
ed it reverts to the owners who never
has parted with the fee, but has sim
ply granted a right of way for public
use.
Any permission given by the Com
missioners for the use of any high
way should be predicated upon and
subject to the approval of the owner
of the land in whom the fee vests.

Barbara Wineman who is at the head
of the Domestic Science Department
of the Thurmont High School, her
assistants being the young ladies
learning the art of cooking at this
school. Here delicious lunch was
served for small sum, coffee, cocoa ,

satisfactory to those in charge.

of this community for the interest
taken in these institutes, for the en-
hibits of farm products and other
articles. He was especially pleased

tried to impress upon the parents the
necessity of having their daughters
trained to cook.

The Habit of Taking Cold.

With many people taking cold is a habit
but fortunately one that is easily broken.
Take cold sponge bath every morning
when you first get out of bed-not ice
cold, but temperature of about 80 de-
grees F. Also sleep with your windows
up. Do this and you will seldom take
cold. When you do take cold take Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy and get rid of it
as quickly as possible. Obtainable every
where.
