sition in the family of nations.
The state department, through a
Encouragement with Mexico City Of
ficials, announced the accord of the
two governments for President Cool

credit for the understanding which
made recognition possible to Charlie:
B. Warren and John Barton Payne
the commissioners appointed by Presl
| dent Harding to the recent Mexico
City conference held with a view t.
| expediting an arrangement for thu
restoration of friendly relations.
A similar reference was containe'
in the statement of the part playe,
by the Mexican commissioners in thei
effort to have the Mexico City Off
Gals comprehend the American att
tude toward their government. Tn

"The government of the Unite

BARLEY AND OATS
YIELD 20 BUSHELS.

LAUREL, Sept Notwithstanding as
recording one of the big crop yields
of the season in this district, a re-
gion made famous in years past by
its production of grain, + figures
from the w. E. Eltzroth ranch, where
oats and barley went 20 bushels to
the acre.
The farm is three miles northeast Of
Laurel in the irrigated district. Thirty
acres seeded to barley produced 2,1O0
bushels, and ten acres planted to oats
made a return of 700 bushels, or a
total of $500 bushels of both barley
and oats from 40 acres.
Last year the anne land produced
so bushels to the acre. When asked
to name the reason for the marked in
crease this year over last, Elzroth
attributed it to deeper blowing.
Heretofore we just scratched the
surface, but when we were preparing
for this years crop we did some real
blowing and got real results" he said,
Instead of marketing the barley and
oats in the usual way, he proposes to
sell it through the medium of hogs, to
which the crop will be fed. He now
has 100 head Of hogs on the place
and soon will increase this to zoe
head or better. By converting the
oats and barley into hams and bacon
he anticipates a much larger Tasl
value from the crop than if sold now
in it's present state.
He commends the movement fol
purebred stock and is particularly ia
vorable to production of better grades
of hogs, a movement which has grow
greatly during the past few years il
this region. Only within the pas
two or three years has a real effor
been made along the purebred line
but results so far obtained are NOR
than encouraging.

is GAS TAX

A set Of tires costing $3.50 may be
run for 10000 miles on an average
road. The same set will run double
the mileage on improved highways.
The average car travels 10000 miles
per year. Therefore the average tire
cost, s%upposing average size and
quality of tires are purchased, is $3.50
per year on dirt roads and $75 on
fine roads.
Ten thousand miles of running at
an average of ID miles to the gallon
requires 666 2-3 gallons of gas. If
gas is taxed 2 cents a gallon, the aver
age runner of ten thousand miles pays
1888 per year in gas tax. In a state
where there are 100000 automobiles
(which is less than the average-Cali-
fornia, for instance, has about a mil.
liOn), the net income from the gas
tax above mentioned would be ST.,
| $4,000.
At $4,000 per mile, that sum viii
build So miles of improved highways
If there are a million cars, five hun
dred and thirty miles of improved
highways could be built a year from
the tax.
If the gas tax was 4 cents, 106, o
1000 miles per year, respectively
could be built.
Where the roads are unimprovec
the 100000 car owners spend $500,
per year on tires, which they other

DRIVING FITNESS.

Isn't it about time that something
is done toward inquiring into the fit
ness of people who are driving auto
mobiles upon our congested streets
and highways?
We venture the belief that not more
than rs per cent of the people who
are driving should be allowed to
do so. Of course, we do not believe
there would be a falling off of %
per cent of our drivers if we under
took to make them all pass an ex-
animation as to their fitness, as some
of the unfit would naturally escape
We do believe, however, that there
are many thousands of drivers today
who not only do not know the pro-
visions of our state and local laws
and ordinances, but haven't the slight
| est idea of road practices or courtesy.

mending putting motorists to any

which they are now subjected or the
