First door South of Post Office | {nto the dar old cha: The Stock Law Question. Reynarp, Mo., Ocr 12th, 1894, Ep. Trues:—-I notice in a issue of your paper au item to the effect that Judge Boxley bas been late | tirealating a petition in order to enable the people to again have an opportunity of voting unpon the quéstion of a Stock Law. with all due respect for the opinions of others,I wish to ask this question, is a law restraining stock from run- ning at large better than oue allow- ing it? And to submit a few thoughts upon this question in fav- or of allowing stock to run at large, with such restrictions as will be giv- en under the law Iu the firet place, everyoue who owns a farm gieatly encharocs the!” |, value of it by baving a guod strong | fence around it. Not ohly is such fence beneficial to the owner in par- ticular, but to the country in geuer al. To illustrate, suppose a stranger travels through a scope of country, (with an eye to value) that has no} fences. The roads are all grown up with weeds and briers aud bushes then travels through ove in which all the farms have good, strony fences around them, with every weed, bier and bush nicely eaten off from the highway. Which do you suppose would the more attract huis | attention, and in its way ap- pear to him to investin? The latter of course. In this connection, it may inute be said that it would work no hard- ' ship to anyoue, for he who is able to own a farm is certainly able to prop | erly fence it. The “no fence law” may have been a necessity at one time, but like the “Federal Election Law” it has outlived its day, and is now confronted with a condition of prosperity in Bates county, especial- ly in Hudson township, that laughs to scorn u law that puts a premium on carelessness and unthirft, and al lows anyone to hide a necessity. Again, it may be said that good fences and clean highways are not the only advantages to be lerived from stock at large. Just calculate what benefit comes from this in the way of pasturage. A township is six miles square and will average at least » road to every sec- tion line, 45 feet wide. This makes behind it as about 75 miles of road, or about 400 | acres to a township; allowing one third for road, in which no grass grows, you can readily see that this pasturage is quite an item to the farmer who pays taxes upon the jand, and who would get nothing save travel in case of a “stock law.” Yet this is a very small profit com pared with the value of the land, say $10,000. Aow“a, advantanes ate to be de- | rived from good fences in cases where stock is driven through the country. Under the “stock law” fences are left down and gates left open, and every now and then you ing crops, and thus cause more dam- age and cost than it would require id erect good fevees. Again, ox perience teaches us that the most | with his handkerchief; “L was a fool] pow, careful farmers with regard to keep- ing up their stock will at some time or another be the victims of storms, | or otherwise bave their fences broken | or wilfully left down, and the stock | goes out.and roams at will over the | unprotected crops with no fences. sorains, cuts, bruises, burns, frosted i? mullions who While if all had good fences it would \ feet and ears, :ore throat and sore chest. | Now, | | stock and extorting a fee from the | helpiess owner.
