I 'I was raised on a farm and have all J my life made a close study of the ways and habits of bird' and animals," said one of our most iironiinont nimrnrU tn I a crowd of our enthusiastic huntor.s one day last week. "I suspect that I know as much abiut quail as anv of you do. I am always amused therefore, when I i hear hunters say that when a covey sur-- ! vives me winter wim a dozen birds ; alive that there will be several brood raised by them. This is not so. A cov- ey of twenty may remain intact when breeding time comes in the spring and ' only one pair of them will raise young. They seem somehow to make a selec-- 1 lion of a suitable pair and these two will do the nesting for the whole covey, j may bo raising two broods doing the sea-- 1 son. The others will scatter but won't, raise young, anu in ine fall tne young and old come together in covey again: I have made careful note of this fact time and again and am willing to take oath on the matter. I suspect, however, that it in the spring the covey were caught divided into pairs, separated by miles, they would all raise young, but when they are left together on their old range, they simply won't. One pair ' will do all the nesting and I guess they i picK out tne nest pair as the breed nasn t deteriorated since 1 quail hunter." Some Bargains in Real Estate for Sale By R. C.

Twelve desperate prisoners in the county jail at St. Joseph, all of whom will serve terms in the penitentiary, va- rying from four to twenty years, made an almost successful effort to escape on Wednesday of last week, by digging out through the roof of the jail. The Burlington recorded a very fast run Christmas day of a special train from St Louis to Louisiana, Mo. car- rying Or. Tuhoiske to a patient, Mrs. Adam Wald, of that city. The arrange- ments for this special were made with- in thirty minutes from time of notice. The special made the run of ninety one miles in eighty-on- e minutes. , It is now county treasurer. Lwis 1. Moore, and Clark O. Proud it num- bered amone the has-beens- . The trans fer of the public funds to the former oc- curred Tuesday ot this week tho 1st ist, and the amount transferred was 818,013 belonging to the various revenue funds and S7,631 school funds, a total of 825,671. The transfer was made largely in the forms of. credit checks upon the various banks of our county,' and requir- ed but a few hours. In September. 1841, Gilbert Ray, then treasury, only had a balance of 25 cents to transfer to his successor, while the aggregate revenues were less than 8100. Mr. Proud, the re- tiring ; treasurer, had his books and every detail of bis business in perfect shape. He has made an officer of whom every citizen can be proud careful, painstaking and That Mr. Moore will maintain this standard, there is not a single doubt Another feature of the 3d constitu tional amendment is that the money loaners who reside in incorporated towns may be exempt from payment of city taxes on money loaned on farms. The amendment fays the holder of a "mort- gage has so much interest in tne land covered by his mortgage. If this be lit- erally true we see no reason for his pay ing city taxes on his interest in a farm which is located outside the corporate limits. A man living in town and own- ing a farm does not pay city taxes on his farm. If this interpretation of the law proves cerrect. then the incorporated towns, either small or large, will suffer from a decreased city tax and the schools will be materially crippled. Take Oregon for instance. A man living here and loaning money on farms pays a city and sbhool tax on the notes. If tho mort- gage is construed to bean interest in the land, then he pays no city tax on land; his school tax will go to the district in which the land is located. A can loan all his money on Kansas, Nebraska or Iowa farms, and not pay a cent taxes to the county oi Holt; city or sshool or state taxes, and at the same time be a resident of Qreeon. This will do away i with the domicile feature of our prro- - j ent revenue laws and upset things gen-- 1 erally. per Jier .. ."Mil-i- ll I tie las and get other goods or jour money baek.

curred Tuesday ot this week tho 1stist, and the amount transferred was818,013 belonging to the various revenuefunds and S7,631 school funds, a total of825,671. The transfer was made largelyin the forms of. credit checks upon thevarious banks of our county,' and requir-ed but a few hours. In September. 1841,Gilbert Ray, then treasury, only had abalance of 25 cents to transfer to hissuccessor, while the aggregate revenueswere less than 8100. Mr. Proud, the re-

Another feature of the 3d constitutional amendment is that the moneyloaners who reside in incorporated townsmay be exempt from payment of citytaxes on money loaned on farms. Theamendment fays the holder of a "mort-gage has so much interest in tne landcovered by his mortgage. If this be lit-erally true we see no reason for his paying city taxes on his interest in a farmwhich is located outside the corporatelimits. A man living in town and own-ing a farm does not pay city taxes on hisfarm. If this interpretation of the lawproves cerrect. then the incorporatedtowns, either small or large, will sufferfrom a decreased city tax and theschools will be materially crippled. TakeOregon for instance. A man living hereand loaning money on farms pays a cityand sbhool tax on the notes. If tho mort-gage is construed to bean interest in theland, then he pays no city tax on land;his school tax will go to the district inwhich the land is located. A can loanall his money on Kansas, Nebraska orIowa farms, and not pay a cent taxes tothe county oi Holt; city or sshool orstate taxes, and at the same time be aresident of Qreeon. This will do away
