HOW TO MAKE MONEY
PLENTY.

The way to get plenty of money
for this or any other country is to
produce and offer for sale some
thing other people need. 1t will
not do to produce it and not be
ready and willing to sell it, as we
do iii this country with tile exist
ing tariff law. Our surplus farm
products are deprived Of mar
ket by excluding from our mar
kets the products of other coun.
tries, which should be taken in ex-
change. OF course we lose them
as customers, and lose The money
or the moneys equivalent, which
they would Leave here for things
we have for sale. The result is
that farmers, confined to q home
market, receive less than theiI

show that so extraordinarily heavy

THE ROAD QUESTION.

The second Farmers Institute
held in Virginia was in session at !
Charlottesville Tuesday and Wed.
nesday of last week. Naturally
enough, the subject which aroused
most interest was the subject of
good roads. It's Importance is not
likely to be exaggerated. Notwith-
standing the rapidity with which cit
les are being built and railroads are
being laid in Virginia. the prosperity
of the Stale must continue to do.
pend largely upon agriculture; and
for the full development OF this in
terest, good country roads are indis
pensable.
Prof. WIN. NJ. Thornton made a
lengthy speech on the subject before
the Institute. He showed that bad
roads cost the farmers of Virginia
half a million of dollars year, and
said That if the State would provide
S6.O00,00O to make good system, it
would enable the farmers to save
money enough ont of their hauling
to pay the interest. Prof. Thornton
went thoroughly into all the practi.
cal details of good road making and
OF the economy which durable sys.
TEN would be to the people. He
suggested that none but energetic
and competent engineers should be
entrusted with the making of an i'm
proyement of this kind, and thought
the State should deal with the ques-
ton es quickly and as comprehen-
'siyely as possible. In his opinion it

1892, it will find the South dotted
with new cities and new towns, in
which on every hand may be heard
the hum of busy industry and scen

SPASMODIC ADVERTISING

SPASMODIC ADVERTISING.
The Petersburg IndoxAppeal says:
We all recognize that as between The
fellow who works "by fits aud starts"
and the chap who plods along and
keeps ut it steadily, the p!odders get
thore every time. The spnsmodic
fellow may create an occasional i'm
preston, but the results of his fitful
labors are dissipated in the intervals.
The occasional display of fireworks
only serves the purpose of prevent
ing his being forgotten altogether;
while the man who works and keeps
working. constantly improves his po-
sition and prospects.
So it is with advertising. 1t is
the repeated cad" and the sustained
effort that tell. We don't mean the
