OBSERVATIONS BY
THE "OLD MAN."
(From the Santa Fe Progress.

VI rum bhO OdhId Q AlObiSoS'
Say, ST, did you notice how much
corn there is planted along the cleo
trio line between here and Mexico?
Say, there's lot of it and it's look
ing fine; and most of the ground
has been got in fine shape, too. I'll
bet there'll be fine lot of corn raised
in this neck o. timber this season, ST.
Yes, sir, a right smart chance of 1t.

The recent session of the Missouri
Legislature passed a law with the
emergency clause requiring that all
owners of hedges along or near the
right-of-way of any public road shall
between the first day of May and Au-
gust of each year cut the same down
to a height of not to exceed five
feet, and any owner of such hedge
fence failing to comply with this law
shall forfeit and pay to the school
fund of the county not less than $50
nor more than $500. The fine is
made lien on the real estate, and
special execution can issue therefor.
The law is drastic, and the cutting
of the hedge after the first of Au-
gust will not be a defense. All who
have hedge fences should take due
notice and govern themselves ac-
cordingly, as it is made the positive
duty of the prosecuting attorney to
institute suit for evely violation OF
this law.

Three children of Arthur Clark, of
Mexico, were recently placed in an
orphanage in st. Louis. They are 5,
Z and years old. One day last week
the children escaped from the or
phanage and walked to st. Charles,
a distance of 25 miles, in an effort to
return home. They were held by the
st. Charles authorities and returned
to the orphanage.
For little folks they performed
quite feat, in the long walk and in
getting the direct line toward home

But you can't help but notice, 81,
the scarcity of cattle and hogs in
the pastures along the way. Where
there used to be scores of 'em there
are now only a few head and some
of those good pastures don't contain
a head of stock, as far as one can
see. That does look kinda bad, 81.
These high prices for stock and on
the other hand the high prices
of feed have tended to make the
av'rage farmer sell nearly everything
he had on his place in the way of
stock. And stock cattle and hogs are
high and scarce, too, 81.

Say did you notice, 81, that it's
pretty quiet these nice days in Mex
leo? But the business fellers there
don't kick a bit. They seem to be
just as happy as tho they had store
full of people. 1 asked one of 'em
the other day what made 'em all so
happy when business was so dull,
and what do you think he said?
Why, he said, they were all thinking
of those big crops the farmers were
busy putin in and the big crops
they were goin' to raise; and that
would mean more trade to 'em by
and by. That's the way to look at
it. No use lookin' down your nose
and cryin' about things that can't be
helped. There's always a bright side
to everything if we look for it close
enough. That's so, 81, as sure as
you live!

But one thing you do see, 81, that
looks good and that is the way the
number of cows is increasin, in ev'ry
neighborhood. Us old Rubes have
begun to see the cow and dairy busi-
ness in its proper importance, and,
by Jacks. 81, there amt better dairy
country lyin' outdoors than this sec
tion of Good Old Missouri; and these
fellers who are putin their surplus
dollars in buyin' cows and heifer
calves are buildin' the way to forum
you bet they are.
