SCHOOLS AND ROADS.
Bill Arp on schools and roads h

Bill Arp on schools and roads has
the following to say:
We sincerely believe that the at
fractions of the farm could be much
increased by the Improvement of
schools and roads. Good roads are
both pleasure and profit, for it
costs far less to market your crops
where the roads are good than where
they are rough and worn out.
Schools keep any community in
touch with the world outside. They
open new fields of knowledge and de-
light TO the boys and girls on the farm,
nourish the social instincts and equal
ize the advantages between the city
and town.
1t is no uncommon thing to hear
father give as an excuse for moving
to town that he wants to secure better
educational facilities for his children.
OF course he does, at least he ought
to, and. if farmers would cooperate in
this matter, they would secure schools
nearer home and make it unnecessary
to move to town
We trust that t,e farmers every
where will take up these two subjects.
There is nothing more important to
the comfort and welfare of the farm
er. The census shows that, in the
Older States, at least the rural popula-
ton has practically come to IL stand
stHl. The increased population in the
Central States is almost altogether in
the cities and small towns. You can
not counteract this tendency unless
you increase the attractions of farm
life, its comforts and pleasures, i'm
prove the condition of health and
wealth, and to do this you must have
better roads, better schools and better
postal facilities.
