Sir Robert Hadfeld, the noted English maker of
big gun prOjectiles, is authority for the statement
that the useful life Of modern. hgh-velocty gun
is about three seconds. That is. the time taken by
the she'll travelling through the gun from the cham
Der to the muzzle. multiplied by the total number
of rounds that be fired before the ri1ing is so
worn as to impair the accuracy. gives a total of
only three seconds. A twelveinch gun costs in the
neighborhood of $4,000, but in the three seconds
of actual "busy season" our gunners will more than
get their money back on every gun fired.

tions will be that the state high
way commission is now assured
of the county's part of the money
needed to construct the highway
as far as Grangeville and when
the contract for the road down
Salmon river is let it will no
doubt include the completion of
the road to Grangeville. One
point not to be overlooked is that
the money to be secured from the
sale of the bonds will all be used
IN the state highway alone and
not on any other roads in either
district. If these districts feel
that the state highway is of such
great importance to them the
residents of the prairie country
should not stand idle and let the
road stop at the county seat but
extend it on across the prairie to
the Lewis county line north of
Ferdinand. The state will pro-
vide one-third Of the money nee
to build the road and will
it forever after compile
tion, and it is a we'll known fact
that the cost of maintaining such
a road will equal its original cost
in ten years time. Furthermore,
we are all paying money into the
state treasury for highway pur-
poses and this is an opportunity
to get part of it back again into
our own section. If we do not
grasp the opportunity the depart
ment will apportion The money
we might have here to more pro-
gressive sections in other parts
of the state and we will help
those people build their roads
and yet have nothing of our own
to show for the money spent.
Good roads are worth more to a
farming community than any
other one thing expect soil and
it is high time for US to get in
line with other sections and get
these roads. Why not bond then
for enough to fix up all the roads
in the district and be enjoying
the benefit of them while the
payment stretches out over the
next twenty years.

to leave the grade and overturn,
with the above result. Another
car was a short distance behind
them and the injured were picked
up and brought to town for med

on the way to recovery. The cal

A Modern Feeding
Yard For Hogs

The Cottonwood Milling & EIe-
vator company have just recently
completed another large feeding
shed for their hogs on the Jenny
farm north Of townand now have
one Of the most modern feeding
yards in this part of the state.
The new shed is 18 feet wide and
so feet long and is arranged SO
that 300 head Of hogs can be fed
at one time and the feed auto
matically soaked with water at
the time Of feeding. Besides the
new shed there are two old sheds
for feeding dry feed and two
sleeping sheds. The water sup
ply is secured from a fine well
near the creek and from the we'll
thewater is pumped through a
lt-inch pipe by a gasoline engine
into a 8, 9,000-gallon reservoir and
comes back through a similar
pipe to the feeding shed where
the pipe is reduced to a a-inch
size. The pipe runs above the
troughs and has holes every ten
inches from which water pours
onto the feed when the hogs are
being fed. A concrete dipping
tank is also being installed at the
yard.
The milling company can ham
die from three to four thousand
hogs at their yard at one time
and have from 500 to 1000 head
there on feed constantly and at
times considerably more than
this number. They buy feeders
whenever they are offered for
sale and feed them out for mark
ct. thereby utilizing most. of the
mill feed ground at their mill for
this purpose. This is practically
the only firm in this part Of the
state dealing in both fat and feed
er hogs and is a great benefit to
the farmers who are able to mark
ct their hogs whenever their sup
ply of feed or pasture happens to
run short. While the price paid
for feeders is not as high as fat
hog prices it is very satisfactory
and, with a tiuctuating market,
it is sometimes quite q, problem
for the compeny to come out even
on some of their purchases after
the feeding expenses are sub
tracted.

BIG PICNIC A
GREAT SUCCESS
Large Crowd Attended and
Affair Was Thoroughly En-
joyed--Ball Game Won by
Home Team.

The big farmers union picnic
held in Cottonwood yesterday
proved a fine success in spite of
the weather trying to put a crimp
in proceedings by handing out a
big dust storm for couple OF
hours in the afternoon. The day
opened with the best of weather
imaginable and people began
fiocking into town at an early
hour. At nine O'Clock the band
appeared on the street and rem
dered several selections in first
class manner after which the
crowd repaired to the vicinity OF
the warehouse in the west end OF
town where the speaking was
held. Atty. M. Reese Hatta-
baugh, of Grangeyille, was the
principal speaker Of the day and
delivered a mastery address, be-
ing followed by j. V. Mccall,
president of the F. E. 4 c. U. OF
A. of Washington and north Ida
no, and local speakers. At noon
great basket picnic dinner was
served on tables on the grounds
and everyone present was feast
ed to the fullest extent, the farm
ers union providing free coffee
and ice cream for the occasion.
After all had feasted to repletion
the afternoon program began
with an address by Ray McKaig,
of North Dakota, who spoke a.
long political lines and told what
the farmers of his state had ac-
complished by standing together
in a non-partisan organization.
His address was listened to with
interest and held the crowd for a
couple of hours.
At 4p. m. the crowd repaired
to the ball park where a match
game between the Grangeville
and Cottonwood teams was play
ed, resulting in victory for the
home boys by a score of z to IL.
As it was the first game of the
season for the regular lineup the
contest was good and at times
quite exciting. After the ball
game supper was in order and
then came the wrestling match
between Wilson and Thye, which
wtns two hours to draw, neither
man being able to get a fall.
Good preliminaries were put on
before the regular match. After
the match dancing held sway for
the rest of the evening at the K.
c. hall.
It is estimated that fully 1900
people were present from all
parts of the surrounding country
to take in the picnic, many CON-
ing from the Nezperce prairie,
and the day was most enjoyably
spent by all present and the oc-
easion pronounced a marked sue
cess. The farmers will no doubt
repeat the affair again next sum-
mer.
