WILL PORTLAND DO LESS? a: BECAUSE AUTOMOBILISTS are unanimously-in favor of good roads, farmers should not; be , less enthusiastic In the . same behalf. This Is a case in which the two can and should work together in harmony." Antomobillsts are look ing out for themselves, but incident ally they are doing a good work for the farmers.: And, in looking out for their own interests farmers should not complain that they are pleasing the automobilists. The machine "riders are after pleasure, sometimes business too; but farmers, like all, of us, are after the dollars, and the better roads and the more of them they can get the more dol lars they ran make, and the easier they can make them. The good roads bureau of the de partment of agriculture has shown conclusively that the localities where good roads have been built are be coming more thickly settled, richer snd more prosperous, while, those where roa'd Improvement has been nrjiniBi art ai a. aiauasuil or are retrograding.
