SOME GOOD FACTS ON THE SUBJECT "What Littlo Nuw Jersey Is Doing -A Railroatlor's Idea Macadam and Tel ford System. MOKTIMER WIIITEIIKAD IN FAHM JOURNAL. , "Time Is money." How much money wo Ioso by tho time spent on the rouds by reason of bad roads. How much time do wo also loso iu drawing n half load, where with good roads wo could carry double the load und save hair the oxpeueo of team and wear and tear. Daya aud weeks of timo are spent In drawing the half loads to market. All this extra oxpeano of time, team tnd labor has to come out of the i'lollta of tho crop. Aemember tho j!d bualue&s rule, "Cut off your losi'rf, let your profits run ou." Nowadnys wo couut distance by the timo more thau by feet and mil's. Wo say of iv village, "It is ti liuir hour from tne city." or a h)us3, "It is five minutes' walk from the depot." Nearness to mar kot adds many dollars to tho value i f ovcry acre in tho farm. Save timo by traveling to market on good roads, and you bring your farm nearer to market aud add to its value. If wo can go on tho roads with a good load.every day in tho year, wo will be nble to get our crops to mar kut when tho prices are up, and not bo kept at home with teams stand ing idle "waiting for better roads" It has been estimated that at least two million extra horses have to be kept on our farms because of our poor roads; aud that It costs $500,000 per day to feed theso extra horses. Wo should remember that our roads are n part of the machinery of agriculture. Dull hoes, patched up reapers, spavined horses und "toa: gled" harness, don't pay. Peter Tumbledowns, and other old fogy farmers, have either died off, gone lo tho poor house, or will soon do so. Bad roads must "go" or farmers can't go. Our little state, New Jersey, com menced to get out of tho mud and the old ruts some years since, and the ouo county of Union now has 00 miles of perfect roads. A few years ago a farmer iu that county had a farm of 123 acres which was variously vulued at from f50 to $72 au acre, aud ho couldn't sell at either price, and It did not pay him tv fair rate of interest on that as sumed valuation, Since then somo of that good road has been built to pass that furm, and tho owner has recently been oflered $200 an acre for the place. He will not sell, how ever, because tho farm Is now worth more than that, aud pays him good interest on a larger valuation. It has become profitable to him. Ho said not long ago; "There ure fully 000 miles of Telford road in the state of New Jersey, and Lknow whut I am talking about vUion I say that tho increase In land vVlucs brought about iu Union co&iity ulono would pay six times over the cost of every foot of stone road put down in the state." While you uro thinking about it ask yourself this question. If I were looking for u new farm to buy, to live on for the balance of my life, how much more would it bo worth to me if I could go to market, store, mill or shop every day In the year if I wanted to do so 7 Other countries long ago found out tiiat they could not afford the expensive dlsadyunUigo of bad roads. Franco has 180,000 miles, and Italy 20,000 miles of iwrfect roads. The averuge homo thero draws more than double the load tho average horse docs here, And yet counting the total ox penso of the splendid roads of Eu rope for a hundred, years, ttiey have not cist as much per mtloasoure have In tho wiino length of time, and ours are little If any better than they were a hundred years ago. The money we spend each year in to toping or Koruplug tho mud out of the ditches to the middle of the road, would puy a good Interest on iuony raised on bonds to make the roads permuuieotly good at the etart, and to keep them In flrat-cluM conlltlon. Others than fanners are interested In good roadn. ''How are tbe roads ?" Is asked uh earnestly by tbe bufllnoM man Iu town as it U by tbe farmer. Mud blockades have helped to can she failure of many business men. The business man pays nothing towards our country roadp. He rides out over thorn with his flue team In tho summer, over roads wo own, (our deeds cover tho land t- middle of road) aud which we ti'X ourselyes Iu money aud work o keep for his pleasure, but he looses in the winter aud spring because we can't get to marhet with our produce to do our "trading." If all are interested in good roads, then all should help pay for them. Hence the state out of its general fuuds raised by taxes ou all citizens, should bear all, or at least a large share, of the expenso of maintain. Ing good roads. Some may say farmers don't pay for paved streets In citk't. Ye3 they do. Where is the city with paved streets uowdays but makes the farmer tako out a li cense to sell his products from house to house, or to rent a stall in the market for tho same purpose, and theso licences aud routs are used to puy for paved streets, etc I don't believe in muoh of our present convict labor system. Tak ing the criminals we are all taxed to catch, and try, and punish iu prison, and reutlug their labor out nt low rate to contractors to rauko shoes und furniture aud other manufac tured articles in competition with houest workmen, and tho capital of mnuufucturera who dou't use con vict labor. Let this convict labor bo employed on public works, for tho good of all tho people, aud roads till the bill. Put stone crushers in every state prison, nnd county Jail, aud have prlsouers, whether for life, years, months, or tho tramp for a day, put in a few hours every day. Let the state doliver it at convenient points, aud local road taxes, or co operation thut farmers are learning, will put It wnero it will do most good. Under tho In tor-Stato Commerce oluuso of the constitution, congress can arrange for national roads be tvoen states. We used to havo them, and tho great railroads built by government lauds and guaran teed bouds are really national high way, oven if some ono elso does own them uow, nnd almost own tho farmers who use them. Govern ment two-por-cont bonds havo latoly sold for $105. How would Borno na tional two-por-cent road bonds do to raise the money to build good inter state wugon roads? Wo can, If wo will. Whon in old iftsop's fables wo reuil of the farmer whoso cart got stuck iu tho mud,, und ho foil on his knees aud prayed to Hercules, tho god of strength, to holp him out. The answer was "Put your own shoulder to tho wheel.' jEsop meant that lesson for tlio far mer of today ns woll as for him of two thousand years uyo. Bad roads ure going, and good roads are coming, because furmura are getting iu earnest in the matter. By thltiklng, talking, and acting together we can got thoiu.

But thero Is no danger. The advertisement for contracts for Salem street work are ulreudy published.

Baking Powder Lord Salispury is Having Best of It. trie LORD SALISBURY Refuses to Consent to a Renewal of tho Modus Vivendi. New York, March 5. In connec tion with tho report from London that Lord Salisbury is unwilling to renew tho Behrlng sea modus Vi vendi, tho Tribune lina the follow ing special from Washingten: "No ono who has carefully followed tho various phases of tho negotiations in the ponding controversy over the seal fisheries in Behrlng Bea will be surprised to learn that Lord Salis bury refuses to consent to a renewal of the modus vlvendl of last year. The information which readies the Trlbuno by way of London is prac tically confirmed hero. At any rate, his correctness is not denied. Aa long ngo as Inst November Lord Salisbury began making diffi culties and objections were referred to n renowul of tho modus vivendl. Theso difficulties nnd objections were referred to a number of times in these dispatches. But as they were not based, apparently, upon any substantial grounds, littlo Im portance seemed to attach to them so longns tho troaty itBolf, reforrlng to tho 'entire controversy to arbitra tion, remained unsigned. Even as lute ns last week, or nbout tho time that Lord Salisbury Anally agreed to authorize Sir Julian Pauucofoto to Blgu tho treaty, thoro was no rea son to bollovp that tho British gov ernment would In tho end resist a proposition so eminently fair, and so nbsolutoly necessary In order to pro tcotfrom uttor destruction tho fast dwindling soul herds. The reasons! for Lord Sallsbury.a refusal to ronow tho modus vlvendl of lust year are not stated in the Loudou dispatch, and the state de partment, if it has been furnished with any such reasons, Is unwilling at prosont to make them public. It Is difficult to Imagine what they can be. Whatever they aro, tho prKotl cal oflect of Lord Salisbury's refusal will bo tho ludlscrimlnato slaughter of tens of thousands of seals and possibly their oxtorralnatioru Neither Canada nor Groat Brltian will dorlvo any bouoflt from such a course, but It will prove a serious financial los to tho United States. By the time tlio board of arbitration rcaohes n conclusion, there may be nothing left to arbitrate about. The seal will simply havo disappeared. If this bo Lord Salisbury's object, ho has certainty taken the most ef fective stops to attnln It in refusing to renew tho modus vlvendl of laet year. Ho is said to bo willing, however, to tuko the uocossary steps to putting n stop during tho approaching sea son to miscellaneous deep-soa Aton ing within thirty miles of Probyloy Islands. It Is impossible to learn at the state department tho precise nature of tho substitute proposed by Lorb Salisbury. It Is probable this Information received from London has caused President Harrison to shorten his stay at Virginia Beach, and ho will roturn to Washington Saturday, instead of ou Monday m he contemplated. AN OBNOXIOUS ORDER. American Conductors to be Bonded by a Canadian Company.
