The merchants are daily receiving new
goods, and trade Is quite brisk now. The
future looks more hopeful than usual. The

Certainly there can be no harm in
suggesting to the farmers that their
interests demand better transporta-
ton facilities for their produce. or in
repeating the suggestion frequently
with view to giving it emphasis.
Good wagon roads are much to be
desired, but if these cannot be pro-
vided then it would be a matter of
economy to have short rapid transit
railways or spurs from the big rail
way systems to every black land
neighborhood. The embargo that
rainy weather lays upon travel and
traffic under the present county roads
system every winter lnfflcts a heavy
loss upon the farmer and upon the
state. The Importance of better
