Deputy State Game Warden Har- | per, with his assistant, K. E. Gard- ner, and local officers including Sheriff Pepper, Deputy Fisher and Constable Duggins made a trip out river, west of town, Thursday after- noon for the purpose of dynamiting a dam and fish trap which Kidwilder has constructed and which recently led to his arrest for violating the state game laws, says the Clinton Democrat. It was the second time Warden Harper had worked on the Kidwilder dam and he determined to make its destruction so thorough this time that there would be no resurrecting it. Accordingly he used fifteen charges of the explosive and is confident that it cannot be rebuilt without doing the whole work over again. The officials went from there to Cooks mill, so called, a mile and a half down stream, and found here a stone dam with a fish trap. This they also destroyed, using as much of their explosive as they did at Kid- wilder’s or about 100 pounds of dy- namite altogether. The game war- den is satisfied that he has put these dams out of business for all time, but will nevertheless keep an eye on the situation here. Real Estate Transfers.

FARM FURROWS. + Inote by the newspapers that a dozen turkeys are the cause of a law- suit where the costs are $300 exclu- the outsider, but no doubt those in- terested are having the time’ of their lives, Ifthe wagon wheels are to -be treated with boiling linseed oil let the work be done before the tires become loose. If the tires are loose it is best to swell the felloes by soak- ing with water before boiling in oil. Boiling linseed oil will not swell the wood, but it will prevent shrinking. Don’t be bashful about letting it be known that you are “thinking of buying an automobile.’’ Let the demonstrators demonstrate while you keep right on thinking. After you have bought there will be no more free rides and very little free instruc- tion. The first silo built in this vicinity was eighteen feet in diameter and twenty-four feet high. This summer one was built that is sixteen feet in diameter and fifty feet high. The first building is not considered a silo at the present time. Don’t forget to make that ‘‘creep”’ for the little pigs where they can get away from the older hogs and enjoy a square meal all by themselves. “Well begun is half done’ comes pretty near being the truth in raising hogs for market. What is more delightful thana cool, breezy day after a couple of weeks of hot, sultry weather? A man will work all day in the ‘hot sun and not mind it much, but to stand idle in the hot sun for an hour is torture. This should be remem- bered when we tie our horses to -a post while we do our tradingin town. Horses have feelings as well as per- sons. One fienihesl herd of etic to each eighty-acre farm is the talk of the arm-chair farmer, and as far as cheap talk goes it sounds all right, but it is a safe bet that those who waste their time in this kind of talk never put in many years in actual “humping” on the farm. The hum of the old horse-power threshing machine isa thing of the past and I, for one, am glad of it. The toot of the steam thresher is a step in advance. A spring washer keeps nuts from turning off on jarring machinery, but where the jar is continuous a cotter pin is surest. Makers of farm ma- chinery can profit from the study of automobile construction in this re- spect. : The power baler has about driven the horse-propelled baler out of busi- ness in these parts. The power baler does better work, the run is steadier and continuous and faster baling is done. However, for small- er jobs the self-feed horse balers fit the work nicely. Advocates of hard pine tongues for farm machinery would have had a hard time convincing me that pine is better than good oak, the other day. A tongue snapped in two almost ata touch, and, of course, it took me two hours to patch up with another old tongue and get back to work again. Every rain now saves the corn crop. No doubt 75 per cent of farm ma- chinery bought still stands out in the weather the year around. Paint soon fades and flakes iron, then the exposed iron turns red with rust. I often wonder why makers of farm machinery do not use galvanizing on their tools instead of paint. It doesn’t pay to let pigs get stunt- ed if it can possibly be helped. It takes more to “‘bring out” a stunted pig than is required to keep him from becoming stunted. Consumption Kills Friedmann | Patient Topsfield, Mass., July 20.—Alford W. Cooley, former Assistant Attorney et eet (0 General of the United States Civil Service Commission and Justice of the New Mexican Supreme Court, died of tuberculosis at his summer home here last night.

PARCEL POST WEIGHT LIMIT TO BE RAISED TO 20 POUNDS AUG. 15 Postmaster General Announces 100 Pounds May Be Sent Through Mail in Not Far Future. Washington D. C., July 19.—Plans for the extension, improvement and reduction in rates of the parcel post were annonuced today by Postmaster General Burleson. The changes which are to become effective on August 16, include an in- crease from eleven pounds to twen- ty pounds in the maximum weight of parcels; a material reduction in the postage rates in the first and second zones, and the abandonment of the parcelpost map asa means of com- puting rates and the substitution for it ofa rate chart individualized to every post office in the United States. The plans contemplate the pur- chase of a large number of automo-| biles, to be used exclusively for the! delivery of parcel post matter. | While, for the present, the maxi- mum weight limit of twenty pounds | and the reduction in rates will apply only to the first and second zones, from any given post office—a distance of about 150 miles—the changes di- | rected today constitute the first long | step toward a universal extension of the system and a general reduction in | the rates of postage on parcel matter. “It is my expectation and. belief,’’: said Postmaster General Burleson, “that eventually—and it may be fifteen | or twenty years—the postal service | will handle practically all of the small package transportation business in the United States. The maximum weight limit, extended now from eleven to twenty pounds, I expect to see increased to 100 pounds, and ex- perience may demonstrate the prac- -| ticability of handling the parcel busi- ness at even lower rates than we now propose, Special Round Trip Excursion Fares - To Pertle Springs, Mo., Season |b: June ist to September 30th.
