Writing upon the incoming and the retiring admin- - 1.95] istrations the National Republican says: “The American people have learned to their sor- row that high-sounding phrases are a poor substitute for horse sense in the conduct of governmental af- fairs. They have American patriotism is a better source of inspiration for service in this republic than a grandiose interna- tionalism, which, in the practical world of affairs bumps up against the age-old selfishness and greed of Congress is free to adopt or reject Mr. Wilson’s recommendation and Mr. Harding will be free to adopt, reject or modify the policy followed by his predecessor.

Governor Carey, in compliance with an act by the legislature, will shortly issue a proclamation calling a special election for May 10th for a state wide vote upon a proposition to issue $1,800,000 in bonds for the purpose of carrying on road improvement so well begun within the state.

Datrrigg see .f (Rock Springs Rocket) A_herd..of..seventy-four, registered Holstein milch cows arrived hery this week from Salt Lake and on ‘Thura- day were driven to Eden valley, where they will be the nucleus of what is expected to develop into a great dairy- ing industry in the valley. Eden Val- ley is prattically adapted to the dairy- ing industry, as it produces much feed of. the variety needed for milch cows, and: is too far from the to allow marketing of forage crops. The! feeding of the crops to dairy cattle and the transporting of dairy products to market by truck offers the only solu- tion of their problem.| © A dairy station is to be maintained in Rock Springs and tik and cream will be hauled in daily. Reducing Valuations. (Evanston Press) The beard of county commissioners have been in session this week, the only business of Importance to come up being @ reduction in the valuations of jands in the county, The board reduced the tax valuation of open grazing lands from $2 to $1.50 per, acre; fenced grazing lands from $4 to $3 per acre; irrigated fenced grazing lands froma $15 to $7.50 per. acre. The board has exempted all fences’ from taxation. All other lands will remain at the valuations of last year. This action will reduce the Valua- tions of the county by close to $1,000,- 000, as the valuation of sheep and of cattle has heen reduced, sheep being assessed at only about half of what they were last year and cattle at about 30 per cent of what they were.

Bridge Goes Out (Rawlins Republican) ~The pew,cement bridge Which was] constructed Inst” si on thé Lin+ coin Highway about three miles east of’ this elty went down a few days since as the result of water washing around it. The State ‘Highway Comaimiasion | sent a crew of men to this city yes- terday for the purpose of putting in a temporary bridge across this creek and also to fix up the cement bridge which went out. There has been considerable trouble with this bridge for the past couple of years. The old wooden bridge went out last summer and in consequence this road was impassable for ‘two or three months. A new cement bridge, which it was thought would last for years, was then constrycted. ‘This bridge is now gone and as the road south of the track is almost impassable it is necessary that a tem- porary bridge be constructed. until the cement bridge can be replaced.

As there are somewhat less than 22,- 000 acres of available Jand for entry. in a township it would therefor ap- pear that the Buffalo office during this year disposed of approximntely 60 townships. As the district only con- tains about 300 townships subject to entry it will be readily seen that prac- tically one-fifth of this area was dis- posed of during the year of 1920. Un- doubtediy this is one of the largest if not the largest years in the his- tory, of the office. i} Question Box (Any reader can get the answer to any question by writing The Casper Daily Tribune Information Bureau, Frederic J.
