Says ncighbor Bilious, Tell me, pray,
What is the Use of Arbor Day?
The children dug there on the hill
\ dozen trees to plant to kill.
I they had left them in the wood,
They might have grown to do some good"
Says neighbor Foresight: Don't you see,
We teach the child to love the tree;
We make him clearly understand
If he would have fruitful land,
And catch the fitting summer showers,
He must have damp and shady bowers;
All stony fields and hill sides steep,
He must in heavy forests keep;
Select for timber, fencing, fire,
The stout old trees he may require.
knew an old ancestral farm
Whose owner kept the woods from harm;
Sufficient forest Gle red away,
For grain, for pasture and for hay.
But wood must feed the winters fire,
And building timber will require.
With tears he saw the woodman fell,
The huge old trees he loved so well.
AT last like them, he falls away;
o, for the woods, unlucky day
The farm is Sold his debt to pay;
The buyer cuts the woods away,
And reaps crop he did not sow,
Which not hundred years will grow.
He could not fairly till the land
That lay already to his hand.
The brushy waste all drying there,
Makes taste and reason both despair.
Let railroads use an ron tie,
They'll have to do it by and by,
Or strip the lands OF homes and trees,
Till frGightS ana passengers will cease.
The thriftiest trees of all your land
Are hauled to meet their proud demand
At half their value as they stand.
Let cannerics consume the coal
That doth abound from pole to pole;
At every school house in the land
Wen educate Il loving band,
That shall the forestry ensure,
That homes and plenty may endure

An EXCELLENT ROAD Northumberland
Road Supervisor John I. Dalton, of the fourth
district, will issue his warrants to the sub
supervisors in few days. 1t has been his
aim to include therein, as far as possible gem
eral instructions as to the requirements of the
new system adopted by the Commissioners
For the information of the public VIII have
shown deep interest in this plan of road mend
ing, the instructions are published below
The warrant states the amount of the appro-
pration allowed in the section and continuing
says.
1T shall be your duty to divide this amount
on the several different roads according to
their condition. The main roads in your Sec
ton should claim your first attention and YOU
should endeavor to have the roads drained
and the loose stone taken off by the first of
July, if possible. The work of draining should
be done as far as practicable with the road ma
chine. 1t should be your aim to put as little
dirt in the road as will be CONSTANT with
proper drainage. You should endeavor to
save at least one-half OF your appropriation
for permanent improvement with stone or
other hard material. You will look into the
condition of the bridges, culverts and fordings
i'll your section and report the same to the
General Supervisor.
Owing to circumstances it may become ne
cessary for you to have different men or sets
of men at work on different roads at the same
time. In this case you should endeavor to be
with each as much as possible and direct the
work according to your judgment. You shall
give no one exclusive control Of any road as
supervisor, nor shall anyone be entitled to
pay for returning or proving his account
For each full hand performing days work
of ten hours the compensation is 81 %, as you
are responsible for the condition of the roads
under your care, and for the money spent you
should endeavor to get the best results for the
amount expended.
Under no circumstances are you to exceed
your allowance and no extra will be allow ed
unless by application through me to the Com
missioners
1t is needless to say that these suggestions
are excellent and if carried out will result in
practical system of road mending not sur
passed in the State. The General Supervisors
could not do better than to adopt this form in
all the districts of the county.
