Consequently Indiana is at

present without a state guard. A question of a new organization will be considered at once. The state law al

lows forty-eight companies in the state, 1 mits tne number of privates in each company to seventy-two. In reorganizing it has been decided to give the old militia companies the first chance of entering, but because of the umiiea number allowed in each company of the state's troops, some will necessarily have to drop ( at Ton Heavy for the Treacher.

Instead of tieing the farm teams along the streets, ample accommodations could be afforded at the yard. With our present system of gutters and inadequate means of cleansing them, such an improvement would greatly improve sanitary conditions and lessen the labor of clerks and other private parties. A favorable location for a feed yard would be on the vacant in the rear of Swindell's cold storage. A llnck for Coiigreft.
