Hav you registered yet? Time Is fly ing. This Is an ideal stockmen's winter. No loss from feeding. The horse market is more promising in this section than for many- years. ' Why are there not more strawberries grown in this county? We grow as many to the acre as anywhere. The crop is sure and comes in late in season. The prices are alway remunerative. Again thit kind of a crop provide labor, hence a large payroll. The annual mid-winter number of the Evening Capital News of Boise, Idaho, is at hand. From the front page, which is adorned with a large engraving of Sho shone Falls, through the book. It is. char acterized by fine press, work and careful study of the conditions in Snake River alley. Special stress is given to sugar beet culture and to the irrigation projects that are transforming the great American desert into habitable farms. ' There are several things that will poss ibly bloom along w'uth the buttercups this spring that will add much to the value of Union county. Railroads will be built this year and as there is more thought than heretofore being given along Irriga tion lines, it is quite probable that some thing will be done. Both should go hand in hand. We need more people and trans portation and irrigation could bring this about quicker than anything. GOOD ROADS The average Hoosier is not much given to brag about his blood or to find fault with his neighbors but when it comes to persistant "and intelligent labor he takes high rank. The pioneers in Indiana had to contend with the softest and muddiest roads to be found any where in the United States. There are persons "yet alive in that state who well remember seeing passanger on the United States stage coaches walking behind the stage and carrying a fence rail on their shoulder to be ready to pry the coach wheels out of the mud holes and it was a common thing for farmers on the roadside to keep! .a yoke of oxen or span of horses ready on call to help mired down team. A recent article written by J. S. Graff describe two horse team drawing saw- logs with enough logs on each wagon to make 2.600 feet of sawed hard wood lumber a distance of from' 12 to 16 miles. These logs are hauled over country roads and the loggers do not have to wait for the roads to freeze or be covered with snow. The Hoosiers ave made their roads so good that heavy oadscan be drawn over them at all season of the year. - COAL MMUS STRIKf The effort of the coal miner and their employer to come to an agreement at their recent conference, renders it al most certain that the first day of coming April will see the greatest tabor strike in the United State that has aver occured. It will extend to all the coal mine of any coo sequence in the Northern and Western state. TU digging of coal is one of the biggest businesses carried on in the United State. The annual output of our coal mine in 1902 was 269.361,050 tons, and allow ing the increase since then to have been at the same rate it was from 1900 to 1902, it may now be placed at 317, 000.000 tons. Thi. makes a per capita of over 30 tons to each person in the United States. The bulk of this coal is used in creat ine motive Dower to run machinery, rail roads and ships and cutting off the coal iudoIv will seriously handicap all the manufacturies, railroads and steamboats in the country, and may, and most pro bably will, result in the throwing out of employment many millions of wage earners and curtail the purchase of raw material by the factories. The coal miners claim they now have a fund of $2 000,000 to enable them to fight to a finish but this is not a dollar ahead for the laborers that will be thrown out of employment If the strike assumes the proportion, it now bids fair to, we will feel it seriously in' Union county by reason of the dimin ished market tor our truas. wool ami other of our produce we now sell to the east . New York has 300,000 telephones in operation. This is more than the entire country had in 1896. The number of telephones in use exceed 2,200.000 or one to every thirty-four inhabitants.

C. Henry. A MODERN MIRACLE . "Tiuly miraculous seemed the recovery of Mrs. Mollis Holt of this place," writes J. 0. R. Hooper, Woodford, Tenn "she was so wasted by coughing up pus from her lung. Doctors declared her end sc near that her family had watched by her bed-side forty-eight hours; when, at my urgent request Dr. King's New Discoverv was given her, and with the astonishing result that improvement began, and con tinued until she finally completely recov ered, and is a healthy woman today.' 60( and $1.00 at newlin druo co.
