Legislature

Legislature
If the Legislature would stoI
playing politics and get down Il
needs, It would he more to theil
credit.
Do something to help the farmers!
If they don't, those who are oppOs'
ing the bills that would aid them
will be marked men from a political
standpoint from now on.
The beer bill which seems to be
demanding the attention of both the
Senate and House at the present
time; the many amendments which
both have added to the original bill
make one think they don't know
what they want. Perhaps it would
have been better for the people of
the country if the sale of beer had
never been allowed.
We will wait and see.
We say again, help the farmers
pass the bill which turns all the
public roads in the three counties
over to the Highway Department.
They say il will save at least one
third of the tax on real estate.
Destroying Property
There is a crowd of boys about 3
TO 10 years OF age, who wander
around the town and wherever they
see a vacant building, they COM
mence at once to break the window
lights which the house contains.
This has been going on for some
time and has become very annoying
TO those who have. vacant houses,
as well as the expense il takes to
put the vacant property in shape
again.
This wanton destruction of prop
eTty must cease. The boys who en-
gage in these practices are well
known ana should be taught better
by those who have them in charge.
Some parents of the boys who do
these nefariOus things say that they
have no control over their boys. II
this is true, then the boys should
be taken from them and sent TO
place where they will be compelled
to behave themselves and have such
teachings as will make them useful
men when glOwn up.
Grange, r. OF H., Needed
II would be well for the farmers
of this vicinity if a grange should !
be established at this point-Ellen- |
dale.
Our farmers are mostly up To date |
and belonging to grange would ,
benefit them in many ways. They |
could buy their fertilizers and feed |
much cheaper and no doubt il |
would be the means of getting more |
for the produce which they raise.
1t has salutory effect on the |
farming interests, wherever a |
Grange is established. Ii is a meet |
ing place where the farmers and |
their wives can assemble and dis
cuss what they consider for the best |
interests of the farming industry in |
the immediate section where the
grange is located.
We cannot help but notice that !
the farms in a locality where a |
grange is maintained are better cul-
tivated and the homes and out |
buildings shows thrift ON every |
hand.
Perhaps if a grange was located |
at llAlD punt II Wuuiu AAAC
mers in many ways. And they surely
need help.
