Dallas county, Texas, has made it possible for the rural districts to ob tain protection from the fire depart ment In Dallas through the construc tion of modern hard-surfaced high ways. A contract executed recently between the Dallas City commission and the county commissioners provides for fire protection to farmers on nil paved roads within a radius of 15 miles of Dallas. When a farmhouse or barn along a paved roafl catches fire all the farmer has to do is to tele phone the Dallas department and It Fro Apparatus on Hard Country. Road will respond-at forty to fifty miles an hour wlti a chemical engine or a steamer as occasion may warrant. Dallas county is one of the first In the country to make such an arrange ment Several fires have already been extinguished with small loss. A gen- eral reduction In fire Insurance rates In th smaller towns and farming dis tricts has been the result. The service will be made more extensive when the big road building program now under way In Dallas county Is finished. Farm ers affected by the arrangement are re ported to be delighted with the protec tion afforded. Crude Tin Can Still I Tucson, Ariz.

Itoads are seen the most, used the most, and needed the piost of any public utility. It is natural that they should be talked about because they are continually in evidence. Every now and then we hear criticism of the road building program. Now crit icism is one of the most necessary requisites of success providing It is in telligent and constructive, but criticism that has no basis In fact is, to sny the least, destructive and detrimental While a well-aimed shot may bring down the proper objective, a stone thrown at random will do much dam- ae and no good.

C The gruin fu tures act, placing all grain exchanges under federal control and compelling them to admit to membership repre sentatives of farmers' co-operative as sociations, was declared constitutional by the supremo court Monday, the court dividing, seven to two. The luw was challenged by the Chi cago board of trade, acting also In" be half of other grain exchanges, on the ground that trading in grain futures was a matter strictly within the police power of the states and outside the jurisdiction of the federal government. When congress, seeking to accom plish the result aimed at In the pres ent law, Imposed a prohibitive tax on all future trading not conducted on "contract" markets and required all exchanges to place themselves un der government control as a condition precedent to becoming such markets, the supreme court declared the law invalid and an unconstitutional exer cise of authority. Promptly congress met the issue by re-enacting substantially all the regu latory features of the law, but based its new exercise of authority on its control over interstate commerce, de claring that trading in grain futures, unless properly regulated by the fed eral government, could be made a re straint upon interstate shipments of grain. Grain exchanges interposed un-com- pronnslng objections. The govern ment supervision was declared by them irksome and impracticable, as well as unnecessary, but their prin cipal attack was made on that part of the law which gave farmers' co operative associations a right to mem bership on the grain exchanges. This constituted confiscation of property, the grain exchanges contended, be cause it admitted to membership in the corporation men who would not be governed by the rebating rules which all exchanges had found Imperative, and would give them an interest, in the buildings and property of the ex change. ALLIES AGAIN SHY AT MEETING BILL Paris. Wide divergence of views be tween the delegates of the United States and the allies on the question of reimbursing the United States for the cost of its occupation of the Rhine- land developed Monday just as it was hoped to terminate the negotiations. When the latest Instructions re ceived by Eliot Wadsworth, the Amer ican representative, were put before the other delegates they found them of such a nature that they desire to study and discuss them among them selves before making any pronounce ment. To give them this opportunity Mr. Wadsworth withdrew. Neither the American nor allied delegates would say on what point the conflict rested, but it was re ported on good authority that it was an essential point, if not a vital one The allied delegations considering the matter decided to refer it to their re spective governments. 1,500,000 Pigs Killed, Sioux City, la One and a half mil lion young pigs were lost by farmers of Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota and Minnesota, as a result of the cold weather and blizzard which prevailed throughout the month of March, ac cording to figures compiled by W Kennedy, vice-president of the Serum company. The greatest loss occurred in Iowa where 800,000 pigs were lost, more than the combined losses of the other three hog-producing states.

He was a man among men and all the world today recognizes his genius of character. T.lnpnln was Rplf-tnught. Instead of waiting for someone to pound knowledge into htm. he would walk mtlea to Becure a book thnt he might pursue the quest of knowledge which was a supreme passion with him throughout ms me. Lincoln instinctively knew that knowl edge was the key that unlocks the door tn tame and lortune. or any success irmi man desires. He went directly after knowledge to prepare himself so that when his chance came he would be ready. Ynn mnv look handsomer than Lincoln: you may have more native strength than Lincoln; you may have an intellect that could easily be developed; but If you have not the burning desire to develop yourself, you are certain to stick In the mud-sock class. Knowledge Is distinctly a matter of In clinatlon. If you do not secure knowledge you are Just as certain to suffer for your lack of development In a mental way as you would certainly deteriorate pnysicany if you laid In bed all the time and would neglect to develop your musctes. hazi ness leads to pain and failure. If you In sist on being lazy, the law of compensa tion will force vou to Bay compound In terest for your Idleness. You will be whipped and scourged and made to do the meanest worK ot tne worm, me nuru laws of necessity are sure to overtake vnn. Vou must eat and neoole will Insist that you earn what you eat. The whip of necessity will beat your bleeding hack and the sharp tongue of a heartless world will tear to shreds your sensibilities. When you are stretched on the cross of neces sity, people of this world will crown you witn tnorns ana drive into yuur iiesn, nails expressing their scorn. Lincoln knew that the world will never forgive failure. Logically he equipped himself to succeed and he did succeed, You, too, can succeed, but you must pre pare yourself for the battle ot life. The ercatest asset In life Is a strong character and the ability to express your self. If vou are dumb as a dog you will receive the reward of a dog, the crumbs from some rich man's table, who under stands the way to express himself. The great mass of men have made no effort to develop themselves. Nearly all are capable of Infinite development, but tnev no not remise it. -iney are oanuy.eu by the thought that they are Inferior when In reality the only difference be tween a successful man and themselves Is development. Thev could easily arrow If they would get busy and develop themselves as Lin coln ana otner great men nave uone. Vou do not have to be a suner-man or a giant of Intellect, but you do have to be Just a little better than the average to be selected to occupy a Beat of honor and ease where you will work less and get more. If you slmnly develop the stiff hack of a Jack-ass and the physical strength of a mule you will naturally be paid for brute Btrength and nothing more, because that Is all your equipment will enable you to render in doing the work of the world.

(rjMMaRaBfra -&: Something to Think About By F. A. WALKER BLOCKING THE WAY THOSE apostles of laxity who can never find time to do unythlug as It ought to be done, go crookedly through life complaining in their semi serious moments thut they are lugging leagues behind their rlvuls and never getting anywhere. They admit this without any appar ent sense of shame or compunction of conscience. Sometimes to their Intimates of like ilk, they boast of their short-comings in a spirit of bravado. A laziness that distinguishes them from what- they dlsdulnfully term the "common class," to whom they will scarcely nod a courteous good morn ing, seem in their minds to put them upon a worshipful pedestal. Dally they go about their tusk In a slipshod manner, shunning respon sibility as a lien avoids a pool of water. Everything they do is half done. Cureless in observing how the pro ficient save time and energy, and thus make work a pleusure instead of a drag, these listless persons are always In trouble, scowling and finding fault, even when everything about them Is cheerful. Their desks or benches are contin ually In confusion, quite In keeping with their unmethodlcul minds. When urgently needed no paper or tool is within sight or reach. It is generally hidden somewhere In a disordered heap. Precious minutes are lost while searching for the elusive thing, and should the task of finding it happen to be more vexatious than usunl, some Innocent fellow-worker Is openly charged with pilfering. Then a storm breaks and the at mosphere is surcharged with anger, which in the customary slowness of cooling off Is likely to leave the prin cipals for days and days in sulky humors. Persons of this character are doomed to fall In everything they undertake, except In the making of quarrels and the wrecking of friendships. Blameful themselves, they pile their sins on the blameless. Wherever they are found there Is turmoil, inefficiency, disloyalty and un- happlness, four danger signals which block the way In every truck of en deavor to promotion to the higher ranks.
