GOOD ROAD PROBLEM.
Report Of the Officers Of Uncle Sans

Report Of the Oficers Of Uncle Sans
Agricultural Department.
The AGRICULTURAL department is about
to issue elaborate information on the
subject of ''good roads, which con-
gress has directed the department to
investigate. The publication will en-
brace the entire proceedings of the
national road conference, held at As
bury Park, n. j., July and 6, at
which every shade of opinion on inn
proving roads was presented. Roy
Stone, the special agent and road en-
gineer of the department., will also in
clude a number of addresses on the
road Question. He makes no report,
SO tina. these addresses practically
constitute report. Mr.. Stone says
among other things:
The main question is how can a peo-
pie having no surplus capital build
good roads? For an answer we must
go where they have done it success
fully and study the methods. First,
we must study all the economics pos
sible in construction. Second, we
must find BUT all the parties to be
benefited and see that each bears his
proper share of the cost, whether or
not he belongs to the immediate To-
caHty or even to the present genera.
ton of men. Third, we must look
into local questions of road materials
and transports ton, and into all latest
improvements in road implements and
machinery.
But who is to do all this? And that
brings us to the first practical step in
general road Improvement, namely,
that every state should have perma-
nent commission composed of citizens
of the highest character to undertake
this investigation and recommend the
necessary measures to the legislature,

Leaves Changing to Branches.

Meehans' Monthly says that only in
the present century has it been clearly
understood that every part of plant
is but a modification of one simple
form-as usually expressed. every part
of plant is only modified leaf blade
But even the leaf blade is a modifica-
ton, and leaf and branch have sue b a
close and common origin that one may
be transformed to the other. The gar
dener knows that many leaves, such
as those of begonia, will produce buds
which ultimately become woody
plants. Even a cabbage leaf will often
show tendency to produce a woody
stem, and an illustration is given of
one, sent by a well-known grower, in
which the upper portion of the midrib
has started off on its own account and
formed n stalk with small cabbage
leaves projecting from it.

Fruits for the Market.

The varieties of fruits and vegeta
bles in the city marl-cts are not al
ways the best in quality. unless from
nearby localities Those from a dis
lance are grown with more regard to
their keeping and sweetness. The
watermelons shipped from Georgia are
of the Kolb's Gem variety, which bears
transportation well. For home use
the Georgians use variety known as
the Rattlesnake. which is of excellent
quality and flavor, but cannot be sent
a long journey to market.

RIPENING TOMATOES.

It does not seem to be generally,
known that tomatoes do not requires

places. One can hardly pass along by
country homes without seeing in the
kitchen windows rows and rows of

ripening-and decaying, too, perhaps.

We don't need standing armies like
European countries as the courageous
manhood of the nation stands ready to
rush to the country's defense, when
needed as in 1861. The G.. A. Il.
which has for its motto, charity, fra
ternity and loyalty, shows the great
strength of the past and an example of
the possibilities of the future.
Capt. Howard Green, of the Sons of
Veterans, followed in an able effort.
Tie said all we enjoy we W to former
generations who have so wonderfully
developed the arts and sciences in the
past hfty years. While the people were
rejoicing over the prosperity the war
cloud gathered by tr~aitorous hand was
dispersed by u fathers rallying to the
defense of the country and we now en-
joy the fruits of their victories. They
we're willing and anxious to go because
the flag of our country had been insult
ed and the government of the people
defed.
The loyalty of 'G1 has not died out
and shall not SO long as the Veterans

TIE ADDRESSES.

AT 3 O'Clock the Post, Camp, Wom-
ems Relief Corps, band and citizens as
sembled in the Hall to listen to the ad-
dresses. After Commander Jas. F.,
Layton read the preliminary ceremony,
Rev. g. 5. Lawrence spoke OF the G.
A. r., the burden of this theme being
the Republic.
He said the terms in which we use
the words republic and democracy are
almost synonymous. The primary mean
ing Of the word republic is a govern
ment by delegates elected by represent
tatiyes Of the people. Democracy mean
a direct government by the votes of the
people. The governor of our state, the
legislators and members of the House
Of Representatives are elected directly
by the people which is the democratic
form of government. The President,
the U. 5. Senators, national and state
judges are appointed or elected by the
peoples representatives and this is the
republican form OF government. So
our republic is a compromising Of the
republican and democratic form of gov
eminent, which is the results OF some
severe battles fought in the council
chambers when the constitution was
formed.
The greatness aud superiority OF our
form Of government is seen, first, In the
object the men had in mind When they
framed the constitution. This il seen
in the preamble. They we're careful to
specify the things offensive in the con.
federation and in English rule, as to
promote the general welfare. Second,
the character of the people who stood
by il and determined the character of
the nation, their intelligence, morality
and industry.
The public schools should be upheld
and every voter educated in order to
overcome prejudice and vote intelli-
ssAty. Morality must have II promin.
emf place. The politician says ''meas-
ures, not men," | say, ''give us meas
ures and men-men who are the per-
sonal embodiment of the measures in
morals. immortality should be a bar
lier TO office" Ours has been an indus
trious people by clearing the forest and
conquering the prairies and developing
the of the land.
We do not appreciate the possibilities
allowed in this country. Wealth and
poverty are not far apart. The poor of
to day are the rich in a few years and
and there Is 10 bar to political emin.
enc and intelligence. No one need be
discouraged.
The superiority of our government is
seen in the struggles it has withstood-
the Revolutionary War, the War of
1872, and the Civil War as well as the
civil strife and labor troubles, from all
OF which We have come out stronger.
Ihe Seeds OF cessation SoWn by Aaron
Burr and Blennerhassatt we're settled
in the civil war which decided that the
States are one nation and inseparable.
Surely Gods hand was in the Winning
out Of slavery.
Mr.. Lawrence said he believed in
government nearer tie people and des.
ired to vote for U. $, Senators, which
was applauded. He also desired cleo.
tive Judges. lie does not believe in the
secret ballot-going in the dark to vote
and would like the return to the old
system of citizens all drawn up along a
fence and being counted on one side or
the other, so every man could show his
colors.

ed upon each one Firing oyer the
graves in the Friends Cemetery was
omitted, but carried out in full in the

strewn with flowers in both cemeteries.
On the return to Penn's Grove, the
parade was increased by the Women's

attended the Centre Square and Perkin'
town cemeteries. There were in all
forty. seven flags used on as many graves.
Mrs. Ollie Croft presented a hand
some large floral wreath to Acton Post,
