ROAD WORK HINTS. X Bad roads have been tried and SJ convicted of highway robbery. fWaka up and realize the coat to 'T you of bad roads. Every road built adds value to i fthe whole country. ? Proper drainage will imme- I; diately improve the condition of T earth roads, ' & No one will ever be able to cal- culate the loss to the farmers $ from bad roads. fBad roads have much to do Z with the high cost of living. Don't try to check the good roads fever. A combination of holes, mud ? X and ruts is an expensive posses- sion. 4 We should devote some thought v to preservation as well' as con- struct ion and to drainage as - X well as surfacing. j The chief cause of the bottom- J less condition of roads is the lack ? of proper drainage. 'f f Never under any circum- $ stances place sod, roots, organio & material or wornout dust or mud 4 on the surface of a road. ; T Bad roads make any kind of transportation difficult, unpleas- ant and wasteful of time and i labor. ;,, The "penny wise, pound fool- j ish" policy will no longer be tol- x orated by the people, for they nam yvuu ivaua nu pigmy gi ,-, 3 them. 5 - ,i CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS LOST.

Bring Rpsultfc Write Ideas for Moving Picture Plays! MUST EDUCATE PEOPLE IN MATTER OF GOOD ROADS. Thomas Nelson Page Tells of Benefits of the Movement. "Of nil the material affairs of the country nt present' says Thomas Nel son Page, the author, "the improve ment of the public roads seems to me the most important and farreaehing. Every Improvement nf our roads Is a direct increase in the value of on. property and a direct ass:sianee toward the impi'nvi:nent. physically, morally and mentally, nf nur people. It Is not ton mncli to say that in the soul horn portion of this country we are fifty year Peliind at least part of the north hi thi- matter of roads, and ue are 'JUii years behind Kurope. at least tint ii'-;n.i nf I'urope over whuh 1 have trine. ed. extending Ir.on the northern iirtls of Norway down to the won hertmiosi points of Italy and Spain "Our people need to be educated in this i:i::tter of roads as much us on any order matter in the world. "It tidies a ions time to establish a new idea in the minds of n rent con Rorvative population, but this new Idea is tnliln root anions our people and will in time .ciii.it established. The new idea of farming is lieing introduc ed, which Ik already Increasing mate rially the productivity of the soli nnd the "knowledge of our farming popula tion as to the value of improved meth ods, nnd It is as certain as any other law of nature that In time the improve ment of the public roads will come. The only question is whether we shall allow this Improvement to be post poned until our jrenerntlon are nil dend and buried or whether we shall bring this improvement in our own time nnd pet the benefits of it whether wo shall use our knowledge and our op portunities to give to the rising gen eration throughout the country the benefits which come directly from n prent system of good roads opening the way to enlightenment nnd comfort of nil kinds or whether we shall leave them to suffer from the want of such a system and possibly even from the want of knowledge that such improve ment is essential."

Enquire of J. F. Barker & Co. ROADS AND RELIGION. Better Highways Will Increase the Church Attendance. At the national good roads congress Bishop Fallows said: "Good roads are closely allied to re ligion. Good ronds in the country dis tricts would not only Increase the church ntienilance, but would Improve the general moral tono of the commu nity. It Is a work that Is worthy of the assistance of all the churches In the country." That is good gospel. A man's Ideas nnd purposes are always bettered by fair surroundings. Order, neatness, usefulness, constitute a sort of high plane of thinking. Given the charac ter of the material conditions of a community nnd you can almost tell how It will vote or In what numbers It will go to church. A dirty gutter is nn obscene story. A deep mndhole In a country road Is a nest of profanity. A miserable, old. broken down hogpen near by Is a scandal In the neighbor hood. A man's thoughts are largely what his surroundings make them. If they are ragged, filthy and disordered, so is his thinking. So In making good roads, parks, sldo walLs and gutters the tone of public sentiment Is elevated, nnd It can then be counted upon to support the tree progress of a community. A bad out look pulls a man down like a bad corn panlonshlp. Ohio State Journal. FOR SAXE OR TRADE. FOR SALE. White and Black Orp ington eggs for hatching, prize win ninig stock.
