THE PAVING QUESTION
Widow Pays $3.50 on Small Lot,
Farmer $64 on Half Mile Past
His Farm

A poor widow living in New Hamp-
ton pays around $3.50 for paving her
side Of the street along her Sc foot
lot. A man who owns square quart
er section of land would pay around
S640 for paved road the full half
mile past his farm under the new
road law. The woman sews or washes
to get hers, and she has no vehicle
and no use to make OF the street.
The farmer probably uses his road
every day. He is probably worth
100000, has car, and needs the
road. "His concrete road will not be
permanent" some say. Neither is
the widows street paving. 1t is all a
matter of spirit. A mud mind will be
satisfied with mud roads. This class
is small. There is another big class
that wants the paved roads but don't
want to help pay for them. They
would rather keep on paying taxes
for the mud and have their families
shut out from social pleasures
months at time. And then they
curse around because John and Lizzie
don't want to stay on the farm

TO GET GOVERNMENT TRAINING
Camp Funston, Kansas, Selected for
Reserve Officers Training Corps
Camp.

Information has just been received
from the War Department that the
summer r. o. T. c. camp for Dis
trict Eight and Nine, embracing the
states of North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota
Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas and Mis-
souri,, will be held at Camp Funston,
Kansas. The camp will commence on
June p, 1919 and continue for six
weeks closing about August 2. Col.
George J. Holden, Infantry will be in
command.
All members of the Senior Units
of the r. o. T. c. who are recon-
mended by the Professor of Military
Science and Tactics may attend the
camp; also members of the Junior
Division who are at least 16 years
Of age and who have not been less
than two years training in an r.. O..
T. C.. Unit.
AS an inducement to attend the
camp the government will pay each
student who attends mileage at the
rate of 3 " cents per mile from the
school to the camp and return. Sub
.sistence will be furnished during the
course; also all uniforms and equip
ment required.
Special attention will be paid to
the physical development of the
students in addition to the military
instruction. The methods and manner
of training is to be so attractive that
students will derive the maximum
benefit. The camp will be under
military discipline at all times and
students who have not had the privi-
lege of serving their country in the
present emergency can get taste OF
real army life.
1t should be the ambition of every
member of r. o. T. c. Units to take
advantage of this opportunity and
let the government give them six
weeks training that will be of bene-
fit to them the rest of their lives.

WELCOME TO SOLDIERS.
Being Completed for
Big Reception to Winneshiek
Soldiers.

Arrangements are now under way
in DEBORAH for big welcoming home
to Winneshiek county soldiers, sail
ors. marines and aviators. While
quite few of our boys are home,
there are still a good many yet to
come. and the idea is to wait until
all the boys get here, then give them
a royal good time.
A big banquet will be one of the
features, also dance and other
amusements. The program will be
worked out from now on and will be
made just as good as our people can
make it.
The date has not been decided on
yet, and little later when it is de-
finitely known when all the boys
wall be here, it will be announced,
along with the program. So let every
body plan to do their bit and give
the boys who donned the uniforms of
Uncle Sam in this world war the
kind of reception they are entitled
to.

NEW IOWA INSURANCE LAWS
Many New Bills Passed by the
Legislature Just Closed.

Insurance laws which will encour-
age the extension of business on the
part of the companies and also pro-
vide further protection for the public
were passed by the legislature which
has just adjourned.
An amendment to the workman's
compensation act increasing the
amount Of compensation an injured
workman may receive from so per
cent Of his wages to 60 per cent is
one Of the far reaching measures
adopted
The bill to re'-enact a rating bur-
eau law passed the senate but failed
in the house, some representatives
believing that it would make posi-
Bile combinations on the part of the
insurance companies even though
the commissioner Of insurance was
given the right to annul rates con-
sidered unfair.
The Blanchard law which has been
on the statute books for several years
and which has applied only to fire in
surance companies preventing any
combinations to control rates was ex-
tended to apply to all other lines OF
insurance.
Insurance companies are authoriZ-
ed to write GROUP" insurance under
a senate bill which passed the legis-
lature. Through the group insur-
ance plan groups of employees may
be insured at comparatively low
rates, the employer paying the pre-
miums if this is desired. The employe
may keep up the policy after leaving
the employ Of the company.
Fraternal societies are authorized
to change to stock or mutual COM
panies. Insurance companies may act
as trustees for parties who are bene-
ficiaries under the policies Of the
company. Physicians, surgeons, dem
lists and druggists may be insured
against NAL practice judgments.

Two COWS WITH
CALVES AT $1,000
VIM. HeadingtOn & Son, of Canoe,
Shipped IS Head ShOrthOrns to
Waterville Last Week
JOHN LOGSDON WAS
THE BUYER OF THEM
The HeadingtOns Have One of the
Finest Herds of These Cattle i'm
the Northwest

VIM. Headington & Son, of Canoe
township, breeders of the famous
milking strain of Shorthorns, recent
ly made a fine sale of some of their
animals. Last Wednesday VIM.
Headington took eighteen head OF
cows and calves to Waterville, Iowa,
having sold them to John Logsdon,
another well known breeder of the
same strain of cattle.
Two Of the cows with calves by
their side brought $500 pair.
These cattle are not only high
class, good mixers, but they are ex-
cellent beef cattle, as well. Two OF
the cows sold by Mr.. Headington
give over four gallons of milk day,
each, and when on full feed, they
will give six gallons.
Mr.. Logsdon has one Of the finest
herds in Iowa, and he claims that
Headington & Son have the best
herd in the Northwest. Mr.. Logsdon
has 60 head of cows and stables fifty
of them. Every COW has her own
stall and knows it, too. They are
housed in $4,000 barn 64x100,
with every convenience.
When two cows and two calves
bring $1,000 it is an illustration that
they are mighty good stock, and If
they were not worth it, Mr.. Logsdon
would not pay it, because he knows
the value Of good animals. Heading.
ton & Son have been going into the
fine cattle business heavier each year
and have built up one of the best
herds in the country. Not only that
they are good, square men to deal
with, and a prospective purchaser
will get square deal on any animal
they might want.

YANKEE ROBINSON GREAT SHOW
Big Circus Pleased an Immense
Crowd Here La Friday.

The Yankee Robinson big three
ring circus has come and gone. They
showed in DEBORAH last Friday to
one of the biggest circus crowds
in years, and they put up rafting
good show.
The Yankee Robinson circus is an
Iowa institution, with Iowa men at
the head. The general agent of the
show is an old DEBORAH boy, Mr.
George Meighan, and he was here
Friday, and his old friends were all
pleased to see him. He has been with
the Yankee Robinson show ten
years, and is the highest salaried
circus agent in the United States
He draws $3.50 a week and all ex-
penses. He has had the opportunity
to go with any of the other circuses,
but declined, and has stayed by the
Yankee Robinson shows, and he has
developed into one of the best circus
agents in the country.
At the present time there are only
eight circuses in existence, and the
Yankee Robinson show is one of the
best of them.
The circus this year has fine line
of attractions, and the big crowd
that attended was well pleased. We
heard no kicks registered, and al
though the price of admission was a
little higher this year than in for
mer years, it was paid without pro-
test. The cost of operating the cir
Gus is $500 day. Another item
that has gone up with them is travel
ing. They will pay out $22, 900 more
in railroad rates than any other
year.
The admission to the circus this
year was 70 cents, which included
the war tax. Reserved seats were 90
cents.
The attractions offered were ali
good. The string of high class per-
forming horses were the best ever
seen here. The wild animal exhibit
ions were fine, and the aerial work
was also high class. Taken all in all
Yankee Robinson is putting up a
good show this year and pleasing the
crowds.
