IF the city authorities do not feel justi-
fed in buying ffteen-ton roller just
now for the streets, there is strong con-.
vlction that they will find it money in
pocket to rent one for the next two
months to try most important expert
ment-rolling the graveled streets after
the first rains, and just before they dry
out after every hard storm. The result
of such practice will be found most
beneficial and money-saving. The roller
will crush down and pack the larger
gravel that works up and keep the roof
or surface of the road in prime drainage
condition. After the loose earth is once
taken off of this roof, as is being done
now, if a heavy steam roller is sent re-
peatedly over the street, and the process
repeated occasionally, our streets that are
graveled can be kept in almost as good
condition the winter through as during
the summer. So long as our alleys are
unpaved a certain amount of earthly mat
ter will be dragged out of them upon the
graveled streets, and it must be removed,
as is now done. But after such removal
the passage of steam roller over the
gravel will give results that will surprise
people who are not familiar with the
work of the roller in packing gravel sur
faces, and will certainly so improve
our streets and conserve their keeping
in good order, that we will not again
suffer old conditions to resume.

medium for advertising, and the home
newspaper the superior of all others. are
reasons that should dissuade any adver-
tiser from investing in fugitive advertis-
ing-in the boom and special edition
sheets of other cities and towns, gotten
up for pocket profit and temporary and
uncertain circulation. The pamphlet,
map, special sheet and clap-trap schemes
to divert advertising from it's legitimate
avenues are all bad. Ninety per cent. of
all the money put into these outside
special conspiracies to rob the newspaper
of its patronage is lost utterly, and with
drawn from home circulation without
any compensation whatever. Advertise
ments in these concerns for outside
places are looked upon by readers with
more than suspicion; in fact. they know
that they are more than deceptive; that
there is behind such sheets or pamphlets
or charts nothing responsible or charac-
terfuL. They know that the business
man who employs these means does so to
the neglect of the journals Of his own
bailiwick to some extent; they know that
he has been urged and brought into the
scheme by special pleading, and not be-
cause he has not legitimate advertising
vehicles in plenty at hand, and the con-
clusion the reader reaches is bad for the
advertiser-that is, when he does read
these things, for in 80 out of every 100
cases they are not read at all; in fact,
people have come into the habit of vast
ing no time on these affairs, but cast them
aside when thrust upon them.
