IH1S PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FCREIGI ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OPPICEI NEW YORK AND CHICAGO 1RANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES HODGES FOR SHERIFF Silaa E. Hodgea filed his declara tion yesterday with the County Clerk to become a candidate tor sheriff.

Mr. Hodgea la well and favorably known and has many friends in the county where he has resided for a number of years. w. a. s. DO IT NOW! County Agent Ward Is doing a lot of good, in his campaign' against the aage rat. He haa assisted in mixing a large amount of rat poison, to be used in exterminating the pests, and will prepare much more, whenever he is called upon to do so by any com munity. The best and most effective work against rata is done in the early spring, when they are not storing tor next winter, and when their appetites are better than they bo come along in June and July. It ynu ran get a halt floien farm ers together who want rat poison mixed, write or phono Ward, and he will help you mix the poison and tell you how to best use it. We should have a half doxon such meetings in this part of the country during the -next ten days. Get busy and talk it up, for rats will destroy much more than you may Imagine. Art, and art at once. Phone Ward today. ' w. a. s. BCNINKSS METHODS In the proceedings of the last meeting of our county court, which are being printed in thia issue, are to be found two Hems ot special Interest. One Is the order for a shed for the county road machinery, the other the statement that if road bonds are voted, the work will be let to the lowest bidder who Is con sidered responsible to do the work. No good farmer would allow his machinery to atand in the weather all the year under normal condi tions, and the county cannot afford to stand the weather loss either. Enough damage has resulted to the road machinery from rust and weather during the past years to build a halt doxen machinery sheds, besides the advantage that will re sult in having a place that can be locked and thus protect the ma chinery from borrowera who have no authority. The matter of letting road work to the lowest bidder Is another step in the righ direction, and Insures real value tor all money expended. w. s. s. Officers' Consent Necessary to Wed. San Francisco. CaL In an effort to eliminate "lll-advlsed marriages" of soldiers. Captain Harrington W. Coch ran, provost marshal of the western department, sent a notice to county clerks asking that no marriage li censes be issued to soldiers unleaa the application la accompanied by written consent ot the soldier's superior officer.
