According to the U. 8. census
reports there are in Texas 93,000
farms without a miib cow, 24,000
farms withouts brood sow, and
60,000 farms without a hen. We
ao not believe any of our friends
in this section are helping to
swell the figures in this report.

The J. O. Pirtle Co., uses a
page ad. this week to announce
opening of a great realization
sale. This sale is in charge of
the Fleig System and they prom
ise some real bargains.
With two bond issues, a chick-
en-ordinance and Clarksville’s
city council ordering some of
the streets paved, life in Red
River County should be interest-
ing the next few months.
Bad roads put up a mighty
line argument for good ones.
The people of Whiterock sec-
tion, Red River Co., are to ask
for an election to try to vote
bonds for permanent highways
Gect. M. Roberts, president
of the Times-Review of Mount
Pleasant, and former secretary
to ex-Congressman Vaughn, has
been appointed census agent to
gather manufacturing and min
ing statistics from several East
Texas counties.
The Clarksville precinct is
again to try to vote bonds lor
good roads. This will be the
third attempt. The district has
been changed some, those com-
munities voting against the is-
sue last time being dropped. The
boundary line of the ntw pre-
cinct extends from Clarksville
live and a hail miles east, north
and west, and, eight miles south.
An election will be ordered in a
few days.
At a meeting of the Commer-
cial held last FrUJay, a commit-
tee was appointed to take the
census of Deport to see if the
town was large enough to change
the incorporation, giving the
city council power to float bonds,
and other privileges not bestow-
ed under our present incorpora-
tion.
State Press of the Dallas
News does not believe that an in-
dictment against a Harris coun-
ty thug charging him with rob-
bing a victim of ten cents, was
quashed, when he proved that he
took two nickles instead of a
dime. Would S. P. believe a
press disr&£ch under a Houston
date line, published in The
New 8?
The condition of the roads
has been a subject for discus-
sion since the first of the year,
and many think a bond issue the
only thing that will lift us out of
the mud and make the roads
passable twelve months in
the year. A committee from
the Commercial Club will inves
tigate the law on a bond issue
for the Deport Independent
school district. The district is
in Lamar and Red River Coun-
ties and required a special act of
the legislature to establish it.

Local News
Three weeks ago we informed
our readers that W. H. Thomp-
son expected to do some experi-
mental work in dragging roads
directly after a rain, instead of
waiting until they were nearly
dry. Mr. Thompson used a
split log drag, turning the round
side of the log next the ground,
and here are the results: The
drag squeezed the water out of
road and packed it down; only
one team of mules was used in-
stead of two, the road dried two
days earlier than usual. In com-
ing to town, Mr. Thompson uses
his car until he reaches the city
limits, where the car is abandon-
ed and he walks on in.
A great diving bell has rec
ently been invented by a man at
Portland, Ore. It’s shape is
round and weighs 15,000 pounds.
It’s purpose is to dive to the bot*
tom of the sea and bring up gold
and silver from sunken vesseis.
The inventor claims that he can
work 1,000 feet below the sur-
face. With the diving suit now
in use one can not go deeper
than 100 feet because of the
great pressure of water. Sta-
tistics show there is more gold
and silver at the bottom of the
sea than there is in circulation.
More than three hundred and
fifty million went to the bottom
last year. We Would like to be
the owner of several shares of
stock iu the gentleman’s inven-
tion. __________
The Federal migratory bird
law was declared unconstitution-
al by Judge John C. Pollock in
the United States District Court
at Topeka, Kans., Saturday.
Judge Pollock held Congress
has no jurisdiction over game in
any of the States, and that sep-
art -e states only have the right
to enact laws for regulation or
protection of game. The decis-
ion was in the case of a bank-
er arrested on complaint of
the United States District At-
torney fer shooting ducks out
of season. The case will be car-
ried to the United States Su-
preme Court,where it is hoped
the decision of the lower court
will be sustained. We believe
this law intrudes ypon state
rights.
