The Farmer's Need.
The farmer ri'CMfrnizes the needs of
better roads and realizes how much
such ronds would contribute to their
comfort and prosperity. Good roads
save dollars and cents to the fnrraer.
Bad roads make farming unprofitable
and undesirable. Bad roads increase
the solitude of country life and limit
the opportunities of the farmer. Good
roads bring him into closer touch with
the center of progress. Good ronds en
hance the value of farm land, benutify
. the country and advance the farmer in
his social, religious and educational de
velopment. Good roads are the ave
nues of trade which lessen the trans
portation of marketable products. Good
roads are the cords that bind the city
and the country together in thrift. In
dustry and intelligence. Good roads
are the most potent factor to make the
American farmer bettergreater and
happier. Better Roads.
FRIENDS AND ENEMIES. .
Cherish your friends and avoid
making enemies. Whatever the
number of a man's friends, there
will be times in his life when he has
one too few, but if he has only one
.enemy he is lucky indeed if he has
not one too many. Bulwer.

Dig ana Little Ships.
Speaking of the problem of unslnka
ble ships, the New York Comuferclal
says:
"Few people outside of practical
shipbuilders and navigators understand
the difference between a large vessel
and a small one in point of structural
strength. The strongest . vessel that
floats in the water is a common row
boat One can take an ordinary row
boat and carry it by the ends or it can
rest on cleats under each end without
breaking in the middle. But the
strongest man-of-war or ocean liner
that floats today would break In two
if subjected to a similar strain. The
larger a vessel the weaker it becomes

many apparently good Ideas which
work out well in model form have fail
ed utterly when applied to large ves

LIVING ON THE ZONE
Employes of the Canal Are Neither Overworked Nor Un-
derpaid, and Live
Probably it was more a desire for
experience and adventure than any
idea of increased financial returns
that led young Jack Maxon to seek
a job in engineering on the canal.
Graduated from the engineering e
partment of a state university, with
two years or so of active experience
In the field, Jack was a fair type of
young American clean, ambitious for
his future but quite solicitous about
the pleasures of the present, as be
comes a youth of twenty-three.
The Job he obtained seemed at the
outset quite ideal. In the States he
couldearn about $175 a month. The
day he took his number on the canal
zone he began to draw $250 a month.
And that $250 was quite as good as
$300 at home. To begin with, he had
no roorn) rent to pay, but was assigned
comfortable, if not elegant quarters,
which was shared by another man,
carefully screened and protected from
all insects with netting, lighted by
electricity, with a shower batti handy
and all janitor or chambermaid serv
ice free. Instead of a boardine: house
table or a cheap city restaurant he
took his meals at a Commission hotel
at a charge of thirty cents a meal.
People say that the fare could not be
duplicated in the States for seventy
five cents, but I prefer to quote that
statement rather than to make it on
my own authority. By taking two
meals a day . and making the third of
fruit, or a sandwich at a Y. M. C. A
clubhouse, he would cut his restaurant
charges to $18 a month; the whole
three meals would come to $27.80, so
however voracious his appetite. Batch
elor Jack's charges for food are light,
and for shelter nothing. Clothing
troubles' him little; his working
clothes of khaki, and several suits of
white cotton duck will cost him less
than one woolen suit such as he must
have "up home." All seasons are
alike on Use zone, and these is no need
of various types of hats, overcoats
and underwear.
All in all, Batchelor Jack thinks he
has come in for a good thing.- More
over, he gets a vacation of 42 days-on
pay, a sick leave of 30 days on pay
and the sanitarium a very pleasant
resort so few fail to have slig'it ail
ments requiring precisely 30 days'

grouches, he has a four room apart
ment with bath really a five-room
flat, for the broad screened balconies,
shaded JSy vines, form the real living
room. Instead of eating at the
crowded, noisy hotels, he has his quiet
dining room, and menus dictated by
individual taste instead of by the me
chanical methods of a chief of subsist
ence. Practically everything that can
be done for the household by official
hands is done free by the commission
free rent, free light, free janitor
service, free distilled water, free fuel
for cooking the climate saves , that
bugbear of married life at home, the
annual coal bill. Moreover, the flat'
or house comes to its tenant freely
furnished. The equipment supplied
consists of a range, two kitchen chairs,
a double bed, a mosquito bar, two pil
lows, a chiffonier, a double dresser, a
double mattress, a dining table, six
dining chairs, a sideboard, a bedroom
mat, two center tables and three
wicker porch chairs.
Housekeepers must buy their own
tableware, bed clothes, light furniture
and bric-a-brac. But here again the
paternal commission comes to the res
cue,, for these purchases, and all oth
ers needed for utility, comfort or
beauty, are made at the commissary
stores, where goods are sold practical
ly at cost. Moreover, there is no pro
tective tariff collected on imported
goods, and it would take another arti
cle to relate the rhapsodies of the
zone women over the prices at which
they can buy Doulton tableware. Irish
linen, Swiss and Scandinavian delica
tessen, and French products of all
sorts. And finally, to round out the
privileges of married life on the xone,
medical service is free and little Tom
my's ills may be prescribed for with
out fear of the doctor s bit'..

SHOWS A DECLINE
Chickens in the markets showed a
weakness and a drop in price from the
quotations of the day before. The
increased arrivals of the supplies are
held responsible, in a measure, for
this decline.
The tone of the peach trade has re
mained firm with no change in price
in spite of the later arrivals of the
crop. The reports on tne apple de
mand also show a better and more
brisk trade than has been the case for
the last few years.
- The spud demand is only fair and
the sales have not been large at any
point. The buyers do not seem to ba
interested and the trade show6 a slug
