ed hard and did we'll in his classes. He
was particularly interested in animal
feeding and live stock judging and
often told his instructors that he hoped
to be. the greatest breeder of hogs in
the State of Missouri. He completed
the short course in 1915 with as good
record as any student in it.
Athome, Cleat Brooks put into op-
Grafton some of the things he had
learned. He soon interested his faith
or in the production OF pure bred Du-
roc Jersey hogs, To that end they
bought some high class animals, and
got herd boar of considerable merit
Three years ago they showed for
the first time at the state fair. At the
fair this year the firm of j. w. Brooks

County to Pay All Highway Survey Cost.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Oct. 6.-StBte
Highway Superintendent John M
Malang today, under ruling of the
Federal Bureau of Public Roads, in
formed road officials and workers in
Missouri that the Government will be
unable to pay any part for surveying,
plans and specifications for road pro-
jects made prior to the signing OF an
agreement for Federal aid on such
roads.
The Solicitor General for the bureau
has informed the State Department it
will be unable to give aid on the sur
veys because of the lack of funds
This means that the various counties
must pay for the surveying and max
ing of plans for the improvement Of
not less than 80 miles of road author
lied under the new State law. Under
the law the counties will each receive
100000 for the Improvement of the
roads, but If the State makes the sur
veys 81, 900 will be deducted from thii
amount.

No Doubt About 1t.
tFarminrton rimes ,

(Farmingtou Times)
Our Fredericktown and Pennington
friends seem in fair way to get into
firs-telass wrangle over the Silver
Mine dam. The opinion of the sports
men hereabouts seems to be that the
dam should go,-Ironton REGISTER.
The opinion of the sportsmen about
Irontno, as voiced by Bro. AXE in his
always sane and conservative REGIS
TER, is the opinion of sportsmen every
where, that an absolute barrier to the
free passage of fish in the st. Francis
river is. presented by Silver Dam.
This opinion, we feel sure, will be
shared even by the sportsmen about
Fredericktown when they "sleep over
it,n and realize what a handicap it
presents to the natural care and prop
agation of the fnny tribe.
But positively the dam will be open
ed. Neither will there be any cause
or excuse for a "wrangle" between
Fredericktown and Pennington sport
men over such an issue. After the
dam has been opened, and fishing shall
have been very materially improved
all along that stream, it is a perfectly
safe prediction that even the Freder-
icktown sportsmen will join in praises
of the good work that will have been
accomplished by State Game and Fish
Warden Tim Birmingham, providing
they do not join in such praises before
that splendid work is accomplished.

Appointment of Supreme Judge.

Southeast Missouri In appointing a

Faris resigns to accept the position of

Southwest, and Western part of the

now. We don't believe that Governor
Gardener, considering what his popu-
larity has been in Southeast Missouri,
will so far forget US as to ignore this
part If the state in appointing Su-
RENE Judge. Here are forty Counties
comprising the richest and fastest
growing sections of the state and with
outany recognition from the Governor
in the appointment of so important a
position as Supreme Judge. st. Louis
has judge and while Kansas City is
not represented at this time, yet Bu-
chanan and Dekalb, just Immediately
North, are both represented by Judge
Woodson and Judge Blair, respective
ly. We are not debating to the Gov
ernor as to the man, but we do claim
that our section of the state is entitled
to place on the Supreme bench.

Active Operations at Iron Mountain.
lFarmington Times.l

tFarm1ngton T1mes.)
A Times reporter enjoyed the priv
ilege and pleasure of again making a
brief visit to Iron Mountain Monday
afternoon. Capt. w. j. Elledge, own
er of that extensive property, appear
ed to be pleased to take us in charge
and indicate soma of the progress for
the past several months. Owing to
the general tie-up of the foundries
throughout the country, there has
been, for the past several months, but
little or no demand for iron ore, hence
he has been making no sales. No effort
has, therefore, been made to get out
ore, and the working force has been
reduced to the lowest possible point
to keep things in running condition.
Nevertheless, a number of car loads Of
the finest possible ore has accumulat-
ed at the railroad switch awaiting ship
ment. This ore is 80 free from dross
as to require no smelling, but goes in
to furnaces in it's natural state.
The great reservoir of water, on
which work was begun several onths
ago, has proven much bigger job
than Capt. Elledge anticipated, as
great caverns, or drifts, are discovered
as the water slowly recedes. All such
drifts or caverns, make necessary just
that much more pumping, and al
though the pumping equipment, as
we'll as the disposal of water, has been
greatly improved, and while there are
now two pumps constantly at work on
the job, the water depth in the great
reservoir is reduced only about five or
six inches every twenty -four hours.
There yet remains something like for
ty feet of water to be pumped out.
Capt. Elledge left last Tuesday for
the East for the purpose of securing
$3.50, 900, which amount he estimates
will be sufficient to perfect proper
mining conditions. He anticipates
little or no trouble in securing that, or
any larger amount that may be neces-
sary, to put in proper equipment for
expeditions mining. Backed up with
such property, with millions practic-
ally in sight, there is no reason to
doubt that Oapt. Elledge will be able
to secure the amount of capital that
may be necessary to again put Iron
Mountain on the map by the employ
ment of hundreds, if not thousands of
workmen, and the rehabilitation of
that once important mining communi-

A Word To Voters.

No citizen, man or woman, worker
or employer, can fairly answer the
question "What has the special ses-
sion of Congress done for me?" with
out sense of regret at having voted
last autumn to supplant the Democrat
ic majority. More than two months
have elasped since President Wilson
recommended to the special session
the passage of certain statutes which
were intended and required to curb
profiteering, to reduce or at least to
stabilize the cost. of living. and to re-
store business to the normal status of
peace. Not one of the Presidents
recommendation has become law; no
substantial progress has been made
toward their serious consideration.
In the Aonse of Representatives the
Republican majority is composite of
factions which are unit upon only
one policy that of opposing the Presi-
dent. In every question Of construc-
tive legislation they are anincoherent
aggregation of cabals and coteries, un-
able and unwilling to CO. operate either
with President Wilson or their own
putative leaders. The Senate's record
of inaction and recaleitrance is known
to all the world. 1t has become no.
torious. under its reactionary Repub-
licaE control, not for what it has done,
right or wrong, but for all that it has
refused to do. Opposing peace under
whatever guise of patriotism its par
tisaD directors have chosen to assume,
it has perpetuated every condition of
war save that of certainty.
What do the Republican masses
think of their representative in Con-
gress? What do they purpose doing
to correct the evils which they voted
upon the country-though perhaps
unwittingly? They cannot escape re-
sponsibility for their party save by re-
forming or repudiating it's leadership.

Controlling Soil Washing.

In controlling washing, as in con-
trolling disease, preventive measures
are more important than remedies,
says M. F. Miller of the University OF
Missouri College Of Agriculture.
Where washing has already taken
place, OF course remedial measures
alone areIeft. If the washing has been
long continued, however, the remedies
are costly and 1t is rare that the land
can be put into as good condition as il
wasin originally, even with great ex-
pense. There are few cases where the
old saying that "a stitch in time saves
nine" is more applicable than in the
handling ofland to prevent washing.
A crop f0&tion which leaves this
land bare IS short time as possible
il the most fundamental preventive
measure. Naturally corn must b.
Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1919-10-16

grown on most farms but there are
very few where corn must be grown
over third of the time on the in
dividual fields and where all the stalk
land must lie bare during the fall,
winter, and spring.
The use of winter cover crops, such
as rye, will go long way in prevent
ing the washing of the fall, winter, and
spring rains. The man who has never
tried crop like rye will be surprised
at the effect of the fibrous roots of this
crop in holding the soil. Other crops
which may be used to advantage are
wheat, barley, and-in the southern
half of the state-crimson clover. The
use of such crops not only means a
saving of soil but also the addition OF
organic matter or humus-a substance
badly needed in most lands which are
inclined to wash.
