the question of "Good Rjads". Just
where the 10 mill special tax fund

Farm Bureau will meet in a special
meeting Friday night to formulate
some action. There is some senti
ment in favor of puting the money on
entirely new roads, but i.t would
seem inadvisable when the present
roads are practically impassable at
times in "certain localities. Other

Why not break the force of winter's cold pen
etrating winds from your house and barns by plant
ing a few rows of
CAROLINA POPLARS BLACK LOCUSTS
LOMBARDY POPLARS BOX ELDERS
on the windward side of your buildings? These
are hi-irdy fa vt growing recs and will in a very
few years prove great protectors from winds dur
ing both summer and winter. The small expense
involved wil be many times repaid in the shelter
they will give you. Plant your trees about eight
feet 'apart' in a double row. Figure out how many
you need and let us uote you on your re
quirements. "A hustling salesman wanted in this section."
