There has been Borne talk of graveling the road leading through and out of Maupin from the steel bridge to the F. M. Confer place on the Flat. As the present wheat hauling Beason js drawing to'a iplose, if each one would donate his services with a team and wagon for a week an 3 Jay gravel, t'he roads at this time of next year wo'uiij not be such clouds of dust and cftuck holes &a is the case at present, and no one would have reason to, regret having confuted to bo jgood a cause. , Prof. Irle is having printed in this office a home credit record plank, by which, mefhod each pupil of his room who desires to take advantage of the plan can jeam credits in his schopl work as well as experience in manuel training at home. The home credit method is proving success ful in many schools, and parents and teachers who have not yet adopted it, will find it worthy consideration.

Retail purchasers who havij not yet mailpd us their profit-sharing coupons, properly endorsed shoul,d do bo without delay. Qur plan to profit-share with retail purchasers of Ford cars during 1914-e5, has been most successful. We jthor oughly believe in it, but realizing tlie up,ge4ainty of con ditions generally makes it advisable to defter any nn rjpuncemenjt of future profit-sharing until a latisr daU', We are, however, (confi,dent ,of our inability tp riii.i-e cosjts for seyerjaj months, an4 therefore can offer no profit shaving f,qr pars deljvgrad during Augupjt, ptejji.bpr and Q.ctoher, 1915.
