GOOD ROADS NOTES
T
Tide TIn
There is no question that nt cer
tain times in the year to use wid
tires would injure tho roads less thai
narrow ones but if wide tires are to
become our maintainers of good roads
it must bo through their geueral nilop
tiou which we dont look for soon
Probably the only way to bring it
about would be through the imposi
tion of heavy fines upon users of nar
row tires and wo doubt whether tho
farmers themselves would look with
favor upon such n coercive measure
or whether it could be enforced Tht
Epitomist
One of Many
Drayman L W Sloat has alway
favored paving the streets of Rush
vine and today lie is more convinced
than ever that his view of the matte
is correct One afternoon his dray
which was heavily loaded dropped
into n mud hole near the Colt atom
and is still there His team of bif
horses couldut pull it out and J G
Nolans team was hitched on but thi
four horses couldnt move tho wagoi
an inch It is sunk into the mud up
to the axle Ho was compelled to un
load and haul the merchandise uptowi

Leo County last season began the
construction of permanent road im
provemout with the macadatuiziug of
the Main street extension out of Keo
huh The experiment proven very
satisfactory and tho building of hart
roads will become a used policy The
supervisorsof Scott County are moving
in the same direction The coming
year the 23000 now in the road fund
will be expended hi tho improvement
of country roads and the approache
to bridges The supervisors also con

HoiuU and Ittrm Value
How much would you give for a
farm located a thousand miles from n
railroad a wagon road and every other
means of communication with the rest
of the world
How much would you give for a
farm within four miles of a railroad
and the wagon roads for those four
miles filled with mud stones sand and
trying grades
And wouldnt you give more for that
farm if the road to town or to several
market points were hard and smooth
and level so that vehicles of all kinds
including bioycles would happilycon
vey many people to aud fro and so you
could market the farm produce quickly
and cheaply
The value of a farm depends almost
wholly on the railroads and wagon
roads about it Good roads are worth
more to the farmer than to any one
else The more easily quickly and
pleasantly he can got to and from his
farm the more it is worth nn acre The
distance to market depends on the
character of the road
Tho lllchwky Question
That the newspaper agitation of the
good roads question together with the
L A Ws persistent policy in tho
same direction has already been pro
ductive of good results in several
States is gratifying
The bill pending before the Penn
sylvania legislature for road construc
tion which carries vith it an appro
priation of 1000000 is considered
almost certain to pass and the State
press is already congratulating Penn
sylvania on the immense benefits
which will come from the measure
The Arkansas legislature has passed
s bill of the same kind and although
it is of such a nature as not to provide
i regular system of improvement still
it is a step in the right direction
New Jersey has mado more progress
recently in road construction than any
other State and as a result the price
of farm lands has advanced materially
The Massachusetts legislature has
appropriated over 8300000 for the
same purpose and the Southern States
we coming forward in this work to an
extent which should cause some of the
Northern States to blush for shame
With most of them however local en
terprise and not State legislation is re
sponsible for the building of good
roads The campaign of road educa
tion is going on and it is gradually
dawning on the people that poor roads
ire a heavy tax upon any community
md that good roads are in the line of
true economy and powerful auxiliaries
to prosperity prosperity in which
the press should claim a large share

A Peculiar Stone
In Patrick County Virginia there
Is found peculiar stone much sought
titer by superstitious people who be
lIeve that the possessor of ono of these
sneer stones is perpetually endowed
with good luck The stones vary in
size and many of them are in the
ihape of a cross This is perhaps the
ause of the legend that is related
about them It is told that fairies
were sent all over the world to carry
he news of the birth of Christ After
he glad tidings had been spread tho
elves fashioned tho stones into crosses
as mementoes of their services

How John Hay Cot Hf start I
ExAttorneyGeneral Williams of
Kansas lived at Quinoy HI in his
boyhood At Warsaw in the next
county on the north lived John Hay
afterward President Lincolns Print
Secretary and now Minister at tU
Court of St James Mr Hay Was
country poet in those daysthe Un
lettered Bard he subscribed himl lf
He wrote a quality of poetry that mad
Mr Williams tired and his rural air
and manners wero simply killing to
the practical Qnincy boy
Ill drive that fellow off the river
t llr Williams declared one day nd
Ao ho did Mr Williams got him so
together one day and wrote the rot
tenest sort of alleged verses Theo
ho signed Tho Unlettered Bard
and caused them to be printed on
coarse brown wrapping paper such a s
grocers used in those days Then h
stole up to Warsaw and in the dead of
the night he posted tho Unlettered
Bards verses all over town Thi
took the conceit out of Hay in an hour
A stern resolve came into his face and
the next week he left the town go in
to Springfield where Lincoln took bio
into his law office and afterward in
stalled him in the White House as hi
private secretary
Whatever John Hay is or will be
Mr Williams once said I made him
If I had not caused him to see himself
as others saw him he would never
havo left Warsaw and leaving War
saw is what gave him his itart
Kansas City Star
Too Good
John said tho father who lib
just listened to his sons commence
ment oration I hope the man the
you are going to take a position wit
didnt hear you read that piece
Why not I thought it was first
rate It was fine Im afraid that if he
finds out how much more you know
than ho does hell get jealous and wont
want you in tho same business wit
him Washington Star
