near Central, to general traffic to
day. Tho paving broke through be
tween tho curb and tho ruanholo, tho
dirt having settled or boon washed

Some other places In tho hard pav

that has broken through.
llnrd on Planking
The Central Avenue plank road
way from Fourth to Eighth street
probably has suffered tho heaviest
damngo from tho logging operations.
This was recently roplankcd and tho
now planking Is being rapidly brok
en up, many of the planks being
split already. Tho logging company
did not put a special deck on tho el
ernted roadway lllto they did on tho
etreot further west which was so
badly demoralized that tho heavily
loaded wagons would not havo been
nblo to got over It without a special
roadway being built
Somo of tho affected property
owners nro threatening to cornmonco
action olthor against tho city coun
cil or tho logging company, claim
ing that tho logging Is extraordinary
traffic and that the property ownors
could not bo required to keep up
paving for It.

HIS SHEEP HERE
ANIMAL HUSBANDRY KXPHItT
AGITATES TUB MOVE
SajH Conditions Aro Itfght and Mon
ey Can Ho Mulo on Hilly Land
Also on Dairy Farms
For 10 days E. L. Potter, profes
sor of Animal Husbandry at tho Ore
gon Agricultural College made an
Investigation of tho cattlo and sheep
industry of Coos and Us possibilities.
Ho wont back saying that nowhoro
In tho ontlro stato of Oregon aro tho
conditions for cattlo raising bettor
than right hero. Sheep raising for
tho small farms and also as an ad
junct to dairying wcro urged by tho
export.
Two reasons woro given by Prof.
Potior why tho beef industry should
flourish in Coob. Tho first, bocauso
of tho cheapnessh nnd tho oaBO with
which cattlo can bo raised ; second
tho very high quality of a small min
ority of tho cattlo.
Prof. Potter had tho following to
say about tho sheep industry:
"Thcro nro a lot of good opportu
nities for small flocks of snoop on
tho dairy farms of Coos County, par
ticularly on tho dairy farms which
have In addition to good cultivating
land 6no or two hundred acres ul
hills nnd brush that Is too rough for
pasture for milk cows. Most of
theso lands aro now dovotcd to rais
ing tho dairy bred Btcors for which
Coos County Is already famous.
"In tho outlnylng sections tho vnr
mluts aro too troublcsomo for shoop,
hut through a largor portion of tho
dairy sections thoro Is llttlo trouble
from this source In such places wo
eortnlnly recommend that tho dairy
men knock tho bull calves In tho
head and put In a few sheep to cat
tho grass on tho hill sides.
"A flock of sheep will pay a good
profit and will tend to koop down
tho woods and sprouts where tho
dairy Btccr does not pay tho taxes on
tho land ho grazes."

R1TANNIA nnd Hor Hoys" Is
tho title of the latest poem
of Captain T. J. Macgenn,
master of tho steamer Breakwater,
who Is styled "tho poet of tho Pacif
ic." Tho poem Is a patriotic war
song, and Captain Mncgonu has sent
n beautiful lithographed copy of It
to Field Marshal Earl Kitchener, to
whom he has dedicated tho verso:
In his letter to Kitchener accom
panying tho poom ho says, In part:
"As a studont of history I hnvo
mado a careful study of your car
eer and havo long ngo come to the
conclusion that you aro a man of few
words and many actions.
"Still 1 cannot refrain from ask
ing you to rend the thoughts of a
poot, and tho language of n gram
king.
"Tho Emperor William II, In
promoting Von Hlndonburg to tho
rank of Field Marshal, is quoted as
having said to him: "Distinguish
yourself, for the eyes of tho world
nro upon you."
rnd I, tho poet, nnd your nr-
dont admirer, sny to the greatest
soldier of tho modern world, tho des
tiny of tho British Emplro Is In
your hands nnd you nre worthy of
tho mission."
The text of tho verso follows:
Her mustering pipes nro blowing
And hor pennants flont tho breezo,
And Hrltniinla's sons aro coming
From far lands across tho seas.
New Zealand and Australia
Havo sent their gallant sons,
And from Canada go heroes
That will dlo beside the guns.
India sent the (lurlchas,
And tho Sikhs nnd tho Sepoys
No dlstanco breaks tho tics or blood
Urltannln and hor boys.
In tho Emerald Islo ExcolBlor
Britannia's Western shield,
Tho bugle enlls to arms
A race that never yield.
Tho North and South united
March forward to tho test
Tho grand old Coltlc nntlon
Sends her boldest and hor best:
Tho Irish novcr falter
In grim bnttlo's dreadful noise.
No dlstanco breaks tho ties of blood,
Britannia and hor boys.
Tho sons of Caledonia
Havo heard Britannia's call,
From tho lowlands to tho highlands
They aro going ono and all.
Tho bagpipe thrills tho mountain,
The vlllago and tho glen,
And tho kilts and plalda aro waving
On tho sturdy highland men.
Tho Camorous nnd tho Campbells,
The McDonalds and Rob Roys,
iso dlstanco breaks tho ties of blood,
iJiiiunnia ami ner boys,
In Wales tho ancient Britons
Aro arming for the fray,
And to tho "Mon of Harloy"
Thoy march in grand array.
iGlcndowor Is tholr war cry
And liberty or death,
And Romo and all her power
No'or subdued tholr mother earth.
From Britannia Wnles won't sever
Until grim death destroys,
No dlstanco hroaks tho ties of blood
Britannia nnd her hoys.
Tho muster rings through England.
Drums beat and trumpets blow;
And to tho grand old Saxons take the
Hold to moot the Teuton foe.
Rcsplcndont nnd united
Sho rises In her might,
And with all her sons around bop
Sho will fall or win the fight.
The empire Is united
In her sorrows and her Joys
No distance breaks the ties of blood,
Brltanuia and her boys.
