IIiOH Watsu Ckbtais. There it very indication that the coming June Iretiiot will be the higlieai. knowu hero in tevural yoara. There hag tioou an unuttial prooipilation everywhere went rf the Uluo Muunlaint, tho prenoul winter, and while tho visitation bore haa come in the thupo of rain, it hat fallen in the form of auow in the east orn section, and the full hut been ab normally large. The report of heavy snowfall oat of the mountains it, con firmed by the lollowinu extract from a latter received from Hobert F. Fuller ton, who k mining at Carton, Union county. It roads at follows: "The enow is ten feet deep In tho town of Cornucopia. It is six feet three in dies deep at the head of i'ino valley, ind Clod only kuowa how much there it on the highest mountains, at I have not boon tip there to see. It is snow us far as the eye can tee, and if iho people ol Ht.

County Uoaph. There it contider nble talk, in a quiet way, among farm- rt concerning tho roaut, sua nio question of oelteiinK them. They are beginning to realise that the only time the roads aro good is iu summer when hey ara mutt engaged with their farm work, or by a chance freeze-up in win ter. The times when they need them the most thev are tho worst. In the iuity, where tiio people drive for plea sure, the roads are always good. Tho first and most liberal improvements are put upon the highways. An in vestment of this naturo tint only seme for pleasure but commercial profit. No Lutinoss man would allow for a mo ment a mudhole or rut before his place of business he could not afford to; how much loss can a farmer afford poor, rough roads? As a mutter of Lu iness he cannot afford them aswel as can the niorobant. It it a fuot well -.established that roads over which farmers carry I heir produce to market return tho largest .interest upon the cost of construction. A good road saves from one-half to one-third to the farmer, and oftimes moro, because there are times that the rouds cannot be usod at all. The habit that somo of our pathmasters have of ploughing rfind dragging, only niins a road; with u,,r,H , I.,.; ,u. and no urond road can he built or tnaiutuincd without drain age, the heavy crper auU heavy rye I u-.. nnmnmn flirt rOHUS There it more to the farmer in good roads tbua there is in politics. tl i!,B u,umK Unuhmur, At Holhronk, u lull..
