CATTLE ARE SCARCE
"The scarcilv of tattle mid hogs on
the farms In the alate is very nlnrm-
Ing” declares J A Whitehurst chair-
man of the elate board of ugiiculturo
in his weekly news letlei Tlieie is
no doubt he declmes hut that the
number on hand at piesent Is the low-
est ever In the history of the slate
Some farmeis have too many rat-
tle and owe too much money on them
If they could be sold In their loral
community without having to go to
market the paper could be handled ly
a great many moie men without the
changing of real money
The only possible way for the fann-
er to realize any profit fiom the low
priced grain is thiough the hog or
cattle route and with the abundant
forage crops of the slate It is an easy
matter to fatten a small held of the
animals for the maiket Canadian
county appaiently has a fait amount
of cattle but is shot I on hogs The
auctioneers of the countv state that
the cattle are selling at unusually
low prices while hogs ate high and
very few being offered
Fifteen or twenty cows or heifers
on a farm will pay for themselves and
dig the owner out of debt in from two
to three years Is the ptediction
Mr Whitehurst
of
Community cooperation of the high-
est possible type was exhibited In the
project of building the rural church
which was dedicated Sunday at Red
Rock The community now has an ex-
cellent meeting place for secular as
well as religious meetings We
would like to see a little of the enter-
prising spirit shown by the Red Rock
people transplanted to 111 Reno
THE ABUSE OF ARMAMENTS
Like international disarmament in
dividual disarmament will have to he
required or the catrier of concealed
weapons given some instructions in
how and when to use them The law
preventing them from being cariied
is more or less of a faice and the
fact that it Is generally violated by
criminals makes It necessary for
honest men to violate the law in this
respect as a matter of piotection A
law prohibiting the sale of bucIi wea-
pons would be more effective and
would reduce to a great extent the
crimes which are only made possible
through the fact that a revolver is so
easily concealed about a person If
persons would not abuse the privilege
of carrying weapons or if the nations
would not abuse the privilege of main-
taining armaments there would be no
war problems But as such a condi-
tion is hardly probable this side of the
millinlum the next best way out seems
to be the doing away with personal
and international armaments
THE RIGHT STEP
Sanitary conditions around school
buildings of Canadian county this year
will have to be in good shape if the
school expects to continue is the ulti-
matum of the county superintendent of
public health G W Taylor He makes
the following statement to the school
boards in regard to the matter:
"It is our purpose to use every pos-
sible means to prevent the spread of
communicable diseases and in all otn-
er ways to promote the welfare and
working efficiency of tbe children and
teachers during the approaching school
year The first steps to be taken are
to get the buildings and grounds in
readiness repair and clean the bouses
ana dean off the grounds of weeds and ’
rubbish and do all that Is necessary
for the outbuildings The water es-
pecially should be abundant and
wholesome"
In case the precautions are not ob-
served Dr Taylor warns the boards
that the school will be closed until
the defects are remedied This stand
is well taken as the condition of toi-
lets and surroundings of most of the
country schools has long been notorious
