Do Not Trespass on Railroad
Property.

Washington, D. c., April 16..-
s,rrespassing on railway property,
at all times a perilous practice, in
wolves an even greater hazard for
the trespasser now that it has be-
come necessary to place armed
guards at strategic points to pre-
vent possible interference with the
country's transportation facilities
through the depredations of enemy
agents." said Fairfax Harrison,
president of the Southern Railway
System and chairman OF the Ameri-
can Railway Associations Special
.Coamittee on National Defense,
calling attention to the Importance
of ali loyal citizens keeping off
railway premises unless they have
business thereon.
I'm addition to the ever-present
X. danger of being killed by train'
Mr.. Harrison continued, the man
who now trespasses on railway
property subjects himself to the
peril of, being shot, should he fail
TO- heed the. challenge of the militia
ry guard. Charged with the duty
of protecting railway structures
whose destruction would interfere
seriously with transportation, the
guards cannot afford to take any
+. chances. Unfortunate occurrences
i, can be avoided, if citizens who have
; no business on railway property will
keep off. lis especially important
that pedestrians who have been &C.
customed to walking tracks, rather
: than the public highways, should
understand the added danger and
, recognize that they can perform a
patriotic service by avoiding it."

New Farming Paper j
Is Distributed Free

The new publication launched
in Atlanta to serve as the official
organ and expounder of the Job
son System of Agriculture is
probably one of the most inter-
esting four page sheets ever pub

portant subject of farming. Be-
sides being full of valuable sug-
gestions and common sense dis
cussions the paper has consider
able that is more than ordinarily
amusing.

contains articles on The Torrens
System, the ''Ten Command
ments of Agriculture" Rules for
Rotation, Jobson's Big Idea and
many other interesting and in
structive articles. Among the
poems are: "Out in the Fields
With God," "The Path the Calf
Made" and Kiser's celebrated
"Man Behind the Plow." 1t also
gives a great many valuable
household hints, antedotes for

Autos to be Registered by the
First of July.

In accordance with the act approx
ed February 30, 1917, creating a
State highway department, every
owner of motor vehicle and every
dealer in motor vehicles is required
TO register with the state highway
engineer on or before the lst of
July, 1917. The law requires that
each owner of motor vehicle and
each dealer in motor vehicles shall
make application to the state high
way engineer for registration and
license. The State highway engin-
eer will furnish application blanks
on request.
The law further provides that on
and after the first of July any per-
son who drives a motor vehicle on,
or along or across any public road
or street or highway in the State of
South Carolina, not duly licensed
and registered, shall be deemed
guilty of misdemeanor and shall
be punished by a fine of not more
than S25.OO or Imprisonment for
not more than Is days for each and
every offense.
The state highway engineer is
anxious to register these motor We
hicles as fast as possible, and to
cause as little inconvenience to the
pnblic as is possible; however, there
are about 10000 cars in this state
to be registered, and to register this
number of cars will take at least
TWO months of time. AS there are
now OILY about two and one-hslf
months between now and the lst of
July, and as no one will be allowed
to drive a motor vehicle on the
public highways after the lst of
July unless duly licensed and regis
tered, the state highway engineer
desires to urge every owner of a
motor vehicle and every dealer In
motor vehicles to make application
for registration at once IN oroer
that his office may be able to COM
plete the registration of motor We
hicles by the first of July.
The registration fees of motor
vehicles will be l9 l-2 per cent per
horse power, based on A. l. A M.
rating. The registration fees for
dealers in motor vehicles will be
$500 for each make of motor We
shicle sold. 1t will not cost any
more to register a car now than 1t
will to register the same car the lat
ter part of June. Every owner of
a motor vehicle is urgently request
ed to write to the state highway en-
gineer at once requesting appllca-
tion blanks.
The registration and license fees
paid to the state highway engineer
are in lieu of all other state, munl-
cipal and county licenses for the en-
tire year of 1917.

FEDERAL TRUNK LINE LAID OUT.
System of Main Travelled Highways in
Wisconsin Which viii Receive Aid
from Federal Government.

The Federal Trunk Highway
Commission for the state of Wis
Consin has about finished its labors
and has laid out systean of 5000
miles of main travelled highways i'll
Wisconsin which are to receive aid
from the Federal government. One
third of the cost of building these
highways will be paid by the Fed
eral government, one third by the
state and one third by the county
through which they run. The main
tenance of these highways will be
under the supervision of the state
highway department and is to be
paid out of the automobile license
money. The commission has been
at work on this Federal trunk line
system since August and has tray
eled over thousands of miles of
highway and has held hearings in
forty counties.
The present road from Mercer to
Hurley will be made a part of this
Federal highway and from Hurley
to Ashland the road will pass
through Saxon and then to Odanah
and Ashland, crossing the Bad Riv-
er Reservation, which road will
have to be constructed and which
will provide Hurley with another
good road to Ashland. This is the
route favored by Iron county road
officials. The matter of building a
connecting link from the Iron coun-
ty line to the Ashland county line
across the Reservation was taken
up with the government by com
mittee appointed by the chairman
of the Iron county board of super
visors some time ago. 1t will fur
nish a more direct route to Ashland
than the present one by way of
Upson and Mellen. The road from
Saxon to Odanah will run north of
the Northwestern railroad. This
road will probably be constructed
next year and its exact location
will be decided by the highway en-
gineers.

KILLED WHILE OUT HUNTING.
]. G. Leavitt, Formerly Superintendent
of the Curney Lumber CO. s Mill,
Meets Death in Woods.

J. G.. Leavitt, until few months
ago superintendent of the Gurney
Lumber Co.'S plant at Gurney.
was killed while out hunting last
Saturday. The accident happened
about 2 O. clock, A shot from a
22-caliber rifle hit Leavitt in the
temple and caused almost instant
death. No inquest was held and
the cause of his death was given as
being the result of the accidental
discharge of his own gun.
Leavitt and his son Harry and
DR.. Franchere, of Gurney, went
out hunting last Saturday and were
in the vicinity of Vaughn creek
when the accident happened. The
men had separated and Leavitt was
some distance away from his COM
panions and it is not known just
how the accident happened. An
empty cartridge in the rifle he car
ried and a bullet hole in Leavitt' 5
temple indicated how the man came
to his death.
The deceased was 40 years of age
and leaves his wife and a son. His
former home was at Chicago, from
which place he came to Gurney,
succeeding R. d. Hogan as super
intendent of the Gurney Lumber
Co. S plant, which position he held
until few months ago. The re-
mains were shipped to Chicago
