Hul roud t-iiUBP a trerut'nduuH agnr'i;i1'' ,,11!t if the producers of this n-jjioo. If vrJint ood roads would stive the people of ibis vnlloy, if ail the material fiietors of advantage could bo fotted up, ami onvincingly presented to tbe people, ihov would be nstonished at tlie fig ires and thev would surely with nlmot une accord join in a vigorous deter ., mined movement for good roads. In several eontern states this move ment is going forwnrd; even the older states, hka New York and Now .ler ' aey, have but recently "awakened fully to the immense vfilue to both eotintrv :tud pity people, 1ui to the former es pecially, of good roads and by good roads fro mean ' durable, permanent roads, indd out of crushed rock mid rendered smooth, arid as fur as possible of ensy grades. Thousands of miles of such roads are being built at a cost of - tevernl thousand dollars a mile, and ilio people pay the cost willingly, nf ler studying into the sulijeet, knowing Dint it is,n good investment. fn some Anson the' state aids counties -r communities to build good roads; the slate nppropriates a largo lump sum and oil certain conditions, fine third, or some fraction of the cost of certain roods is puid oift of this state fund, I lie eoiiuly or district paying the balance. This is a good system and ougltt in lime to be adopted here. But, wo ought not to wait fo that, hut go nhead and do something, much, enr by year, to ndd to the mileage of rcully good ronds. The advantages of good ronds are np pa rent ly obvious, yet few npprecinte lliem sufficiently. A prod ncer ca n lis ill la rer loads two or three times as much tit a lond a big direct saving of labor and ex pense. Flis tenuis will last longer mid bo more easily kept, lie can haul when ever he pleases, when the nuirket suits him, and not necessarily as is loo of ten the en so now, only when I he road" get good, ami when perhaps the market is poor. In some eases products are an entire loss on account of i in pri usable r ads. . All this makes a big saving in the course of a year, but there is a great it consideration still, (food roads direct lv and very appreciably, oflen greatly, en huueo the Vlilue of the farmers' prop i-rty. They make land worth more. In many cnn.'n .fl'MKi spent on good rniob .tn the district by a farmer would conn back to him immediately in the in creased value of his farm. There are still other benefits: Easier access to town, to it ft education, com merHnl, religious and other ndvnn . tages. (food roads are a help to neigh borhood sociability, fraternity and in tellectuality. They help people to live more easily, more profitably nnd more happily. Don't, forgot t lint there in nothing' more important in nnv rural community than good roads, ami they are impbrliiut to the towns, too, CONTEST WAKES UP 1 he carnival queen content js not arouiiug the enthusiasm which its spou sors had hoped tor. 1'eoide are not asking for the vote that they are eu titled to wlo-a they pun-hnse at the progressive stores that give the votes away.
