One curious point about our young

but are condoled with as victims toa
hideous system. The idea of sitting
through a serious play is secuted
with ignoininy, and even to know
the current news Of the day, to have
read Mr.. Gladstone's speech or to
have an opinion on the Uganda qucs.

The introduction Of broad tires upon
all farm wagons and carts adapted for
heavy draft purposes alone would do
much to improve roads, since half the
trouble seems to arise from heavy loads
carting over country roads at seasons OF
the year when the ground is soft. AT
Tuxedo. where all draft wagons are pro-
hibited an entry unless furnished with
broad tired wheels, the tremendous adj
vantage over the ordinary tires has been
plainly proved, for there. even when the

I'LL !. &'tt*s
The Improvement of country roads I'M
dertaken upon a large scale would de-
c~cntralize labor while 1t was in progress
as well as aftorward. There would be a
largo floating population of laborers in
the country while the work was proceed
ing. With the Improvement Of the roads
would come a great improvement in the
conditions of country life; greater facili-
ties for social gatherings, church and
school attendance; the discussion Of pub
lie questions; cheaper and easier trans
portation and improved access to the
towns; less dependence upon the rail-
ways.
One defect Of the railway system IS its
tendency TO build up large cities at the
G of small towns and villages.
Good roads help TO build up thriving
market towns and other small commu-
mites. Then they cannot be monop-
olized like railways. There can be 40
oppressive tariffs for carriage, nor dis
eliminating rates. nor disputes about
long and short hauls. They are the peo-
pies roads. There Is no need Of any
movement to nationalist them. They
are already nationalized, and all that Is
needed is for the nation 10 recognize the

work these depressions and soft spots are
carefully filed and brought to the line
Of the required grace, while the success
sive passing of the heavy roller over the
filing gives to the entire road that form
and consistency which are so essential
to every good highway. 1t is true that
heavy rollers are rarely used in the CON
struction or improvement of dirt roads,
but this is owing as much to a lack Of
knowledge of the real value Of a good
roller as TO the apparently formidable
outlay involved in its first cost.
All dirt roads become hard and passa-
bic hy the use Of u roller. Every wagon
wheel acts a a roller upon the road sur
face. and the value of its rolling quail
ties depends upon the width Of the wheel
tires and the load which the wheel sus-
tains. but the wagon wheel is generally
made 50 narrow as TO create ruts III
many cases, and its use always tends to
develop the weak spots, humps, holes
and undulations which are so quickly
revealed In the use of the regular roller.
Moreover. the rolling qualities exerted by
the wheels of passing traffic are never
bestowed uniformly upon the entire
width Of the roadway, but are confined
throughout the length Of most country
roads to the two marrow lines Of travel
which marked the tracks Of the wheels
Of tho first passing vehicle, and which
seem to have been followed with scrupu-
lous care by all the vehicles which came
after.
Tho result is that the roadway on both
sides Of these beaten tracks is often left
in a soft, muddy or rutty condition, and

compelled TO pass each other the neces-
