In our g rea t national em ergency every man should consider how he can beet help along. The easiest w ay fo r every ow ner o f liv e stock to “ do his b it" is to see that every ani m al gees to m arket carryin g as much w eigh t as it is practical to put on. W e are now draw ing upon the M ay and June and July supplies o f beef, pork and mutton. Farm ing and liv e stock feed in g is • good deal o f a gam ble, but there ■ •ver waa a tim e since the Am erican C ivil W ar when a fcoder could fe e l as sure o f a good p rofit on brin gin g his Hve stock up to norm al w e ig h t The higher the ptteee fo r grain, the m ore certain is the f coder o f a profit in putting w eigh t on im m ature stock. From one end o f the country to the other thare is a dcarth o f m ature stock. Peed lots, East, W est, North and South are bars. Hundreds o f thouaands o f sheep and ca ttle hâve been wiped out by alm ost unprece- dentod severity o f w in ter in the W est, and th ere is no spot on the map where en ean turn to fin<i a surplus o f young •tock to put in feed lots or turn on the pasture. P atriotism alone ought to be suffl- cient spur to induce farm ers and feed ers to m ature th eir holdings. At this tim e it seems h igh ly probable th at such a course would not only be h igh ly patriotic, but handsomely pro- «ta b le.— C hicago L iv e Stock W orld. t f^ g | p W J F t E | .M O N E Y KINGING, DANCING, WIRE-WALKERS, HOOP ROLLERS, JUGGLERS, FIRE-EATING, CONTORTION ACTS. .

Surveyed on a lin e fo llo w in g closely the banks o f the riv e r the road makes long sw eeping curves w ith the w ater on bne side and the m assive trees o f one o f the fin est fo rests on the Pacific coast on the other, m aking one o f the most scenic roads to be found in the country. M r. Germond has planned a road which w ill be inexpensive in construc tion considering the nature o f the country through which the thorough fa re is built, one which w ill cost but little fo r upkeep and which can be traveled a t a ll tim es o f the year a t a grade o f less than tw o per cent fo r the en tire distance. The route is con sidered rem arkable fo r this one fe a ture, as previou sly the road has reach ed as high as tw en ty-five per cent, w hile only a s lig h t deviation from the present course brings It to grounds over which a vehicle can tra vel w ith practically no noticeable difference in the grade o f the bed. On one stretch about 1200 fe e t in length there is ab solutely no change in levels, although the surrounding country is very rough. The road winds a good deal, but on curves easily negotiated and which adds rath er than detracts from the beauty o f the highw ay. The road is to be planked fo r the entire tw o m iles according to present p i.» ., and although no etsim ate has been announced or prepared in any w ay it is the b e lie f that the cost w ill be between tw elve and fifteen thous and dollars fo r the en tire im prove ment. I t is very probable th at the county court w ill pass an order a t its next session authorising a contract fo r the w ork and that grad in g w ill be begun w ithin a fe w weeks.
