Lincoln county has in round
numbers 37,000 head of cattle.
Lincoln county probably markets
one third of this number of cat-
tle each year, or for convenience
say 12,000.
Lincoln county is below the
Federal quarantine line and for
this reason loses from three to
five dollars per head on each
animal. This means an annual
loss of $48,000, cr in ten years a
loss of $480,000, nearly half a
million dollars.
Lincoln county commissioners,
co operating with the state and
federal officials, are eradicating
the ticks, after which the county
will be placed above the line, a
better grade of cattle raised and
a better price on the present
grade realized.
This work is costing about one
fourth of a cent per head and
the property of towns, railroads,
pipe lines, telephones, etc., are
helping to pay this
This means that one-Yourth of
one cent partly paid by someone
else will add four dollars value
to each head of cattle in the coun-
ty.
Is it not good business sense
to do this.
Some of our farmers object be-
cause it injures the cattle.
These farmers do not stop to
count the hundreds of cattle that
die each year from Texas fever.
Up to Wednesday evening of
this week over 4,000 cattle had
been dipped and four deaths re-
ported. The total fatality from
dipping will be much less than
the loss of one month from Texas
fever.
This eradication will take two
years, will cost a mere pittance
and be worth a half a million
dollars to the cattle raisers.

service
When the franchise was grant-
ed many people contended that
it should not be done but that
the city should own and operate
the plant. At that time it was
impossible for the city to buy a
plant as it was bonded to the
limit and by giving a franchise
we have enjoyed the privilege of
lights for several years. We are
now able to own the plant and in
our humble judgment should do
so.
A clause was put in the fran-
chise permitting the city to pur-
chase at any time and compelling
the company to sell. We believe
the time is now ripe to take ad-
vantage of that clause. We be-
lieve that Chadler is entitled to a
day service and a lower rate.

CITY OWNERSHIP OF LIGHT PLANT
While Chandler is “‘doing
things” it strikes us that one
important deal is being overlook-
ed.
We are all proud of our water
works system and a comparison
with other cities reveals the fact
that it is one of the very best m
the state.
It requires a constant head of
steam to operate the pumping
plant and just a little more ex-
pense would give the necessary
power to run an electric light
ten thousand dollars. This is
because the Federal government
has observed the progressive
spirit in this county and propose
to aid in sending their best men
to help us. The work of Uncle
Sam is worth $25,000 to this
county this year. Is this not
a magnificent recognition of our
push and progressiveness? Is
any one so dead, so unpatriotic
as to call a halt? Forward is the
word. Lincoln county lands will
double in value in three years if
these impiovements are pushed
as laid out. The school lands
sold, ticks eradicated, bridges
again able to be out.
