BEST ROADS FOR FARr1ERS.
Investigations by Experts of the
Agricultural Department.

WASHINGTON. July The re
ports Of several sppcial inyestiss-
tions conducted by experts of the
Agricultural Department have been
submitted to Secretary Morton
The inquiry as TO the best roads for
farms and farmers was conducted
by Gen. Roy Stone. who pictures
the roads that best meet the farm
er's needs as solid, well-bedded
stone road, so narrow us to be only
a single track, but having an earth
track alongside.
A fine dry, smooth dirt track, "
the report says, SIS the perfection
of roads-easy on horses feet and
legs and on the vehicles and free
from noise and jar. The stone roads
on the other hand wear more in dry
weather than IN wet. Practical ex-
perience shows that the junction Of
the stones and the earth sections
can be kept even. and there is no
difficulty met in the meeting and
passing # loaded teams-two points
which have been raised inthe dis
cussion of construction methods.
No rutting of the earth roads re-
suit"

In the larger cities there are law
fully organized corporations known
as security companies, which, for
a certain per cent. go on security
bonds, instead of usual bondsmen,
and we believe the day IS not far
distant that those companies will
be on every bond on which securi-
ty is required.
A security debt is the hardest
debt of all to pay and in many in
stances payment is required when
the individual is least expecting it,
and is therefore poorly prepared,
for when the obligation is made, it
is with the expectation that it will
never have to be met. Yet, when
one individual signs a bond for an
other, he, in measure, becomes re-
sponsible for that individuals fu-
ture business transactions. Ii he
manages his business 81 ;essfully
and paws the debt all is we'll and
good, but his bondsman is respon-
sible for any Encouragement or
bad luck that would keep him from
paying it, and he occupies this po-
sition without d cents remunera-
ton and without the slightest pro-
lection. On the other hand, these
security companies have made cal
culations and from these, just as in
life and property insurance, they
know exactly what per cent. of the
obligations, assumed by them, they
will have to pay, and they have the
money at hand for this purpose.
We hope the time is near when
individuals will not have to be OBJ
ligated and have to pay security
debts. and we look upon these Or
ganized companies as the mostprac-
tical way to bring this about.
The Richmond State recently
called attention to the promptness
with which the security company
paid over the $1,000 which it guar
anteed as a bail bond, for the gold
brick man. Had this been private
bond it would have brought hard
ship on the bondsman, and he
would have tried to avoid its pay
ment, but as it is there is no hard
ship about it.

Took ingalls, for a Living Skeleton

TIE Chicago Chronicle has this
story about ex- Senatol Ingalls,. Of
Kansas: At an early day in Kan
sas John j. Ingalls, sat in his office
at Topeka reading his paper very
intently. A newsboy ran up and
was Just opening his mouth to cry,
Here's your morning paper! when
his eyes rested on a skeleton hung
up in the end of the hallway. He
no sooner saw it than he fell over
backwards and rolled down The
stairs. The Senator rushed to the
door, and in tn, kindest words told
the newsboy to come back, as he
wanted paper. The newsboy'
bracing up, looked at the Senator
sharply AMI exclaimed, Oh, no yon
don't;I saw you before you got
your clothes on"

Try HarriSOnburQ.

The Harrisouburg Free Press
publishes our editorial which an
peared few weeks ago, in regard
to our relation to Stanton, the
treatment we have received at her
hands, etc, and adds the following:
I'VE would say to our contempo-
rary and the people of Highland,
make up your minds to secure the
Chesapeake & Western railroad
through your county and try Har-
risonburg as trading point. This
town and Rockingham county are
doing all they can to get a road
through your section Of country,
not branch road but a trunk line
that will give you an outlet to the
outside world as we'll as to Harri-
sonburg. Our people are not pos
ing as philanthropists, bat when
the right men came along, who had
the money and experience. the citi-
zens Of Rockingham took hold Of
the matter in earnest, because they
believed a railroad across this Sec
ton Of the state would add much TO
the wealth of our county. And as
the interest Of every county along
the line are in common, each one
must be benefited. Whatever else
may be said of the people who are
building this line, we know that
they are doing it and our people
are happy"
"At the eleventh hour Staunton
is talking about building rail roads,
making connections" &C., but we
think that Harrisonburg and Rock
ingham county have got the bulge
on her. And when Staunton goes
t, Highland and asks thatcounty to
aid in making a connection with
the Chesapeake & Western at that
point, Highland people will know
why such aid is so much desired by
neighboring city, and they will
give their assistance where it is
most deserving and where it will do
them the mist good"

Progress made on the c. 6 w.

EIOXEGSS IIldtsC Ctl ltlS ~ ~ W.
Relative to the progress being
made in the building of "our" rail
road, we have gathered the follow
ing from our Harrisonburg ex-
changes:
Each week, each day, shows de-
cided progress in the construction
Of the new railroad. We not only
report rapid progress on the line
between here and Bridgewater, bit
on Monday work was begun on the
east end of the road, OH The farm Of
Mr.. A. M. Newman, south Of town.
As has been before stated, Mr.. Fer
guson, who has the reputation OF
building az lcng line of railroad
in a given length Of time as any
other contractor in the United
States, has the contract of grading
the road between Harrisonburg and
Elkton. We may expect that this
part of the work will fully meet the
record made on the west side.
This morning we called on Mess.
Van AIKEN and Hays. track layers,
and found Mr.. Van AIKEN ir his Of
flee. We asked that gentleman
now he was getting along with the
track laying. "Oh, first rate" he
replied. BY this evening we will
be within Il half mile Of Dayton,
and in another day. if every thing
moves along as it has been, we will
be in the corporate limits"
We then inquired if the grading
between Dayton and Bridgewater
was being pushed ahead, and if the
track laying would be continued
without interruption.
1--WE have large force of men
and teams at work on that part of
the line in question, and the work
is beng pushed ahead" was the re-
ply, land the laying of the rails will
continue just as fast as the grading
is finished"
We asked if this applied to the
line east Of town, also.
why, certainly" said Mr.. Van
Aiken. I'VE have on hand plenty
of track supplies and the company
is receiving shipments of rails right
along. and as the grading is finish
ed east of town we will be right af-
ter them laying track"
This is very gratifying news in
deed, and it begins to look as if our
farmers around Dayton and Bridge
water would be enabled to get their
fertilizers for their fall crops shipp-
ed to their towns over the new road
as we'll as to get this years crop Of
wheat and hay to market without
hauling it a long distance on wag-
ons.
The latest news is that track lay
ing was completed to Dayton last
Saturday.

Our suggestions to the counties
west of us are fully applicable to
those on the east Before the days
of railr >ads the products of this fer
tile Valley went to the head Of nav
igation at Fredericksburg because
it was the shortest and most natur-
al route. The first millionaire in
the United States made his money
trading at Falmouth, which is but
across the river from Fredericks-
burg, and that million was largely
made up Of the profits drawn from
the trade of this VALLEY, and the
second million was likewise made
at the same place. We are told
that it was the Identical route choS-
en- pv the Chesapeake & Western to
cross the Blue Ridge where Gov
ernor Spottswood with his knights
of the Golden Horseshoe travelled
to reach the fertile fields Of the
Valley of Virginia. From that
time until the diversion of our trade
by the building Of north and south
lines Of rairod, a very large pro-
portion of our business and ex-
change was at fredericksburg or
Falmouth. From history and ira
dition there is every reason for fra
ternal feeling between the people
along this route, and between these
points, and we are sure that we
voice the true sentiment of Rock
ingham citizens when we express
desire that these disturbed relations
may be restored. Each will be
profted by friendly interchange |
and exchange of social conrteSics
and business relations. With the
impetus that has been given to the
Chesapeake & Western by the ac-
ton Of Rockingham, we hope in
the near future to meet and mill

New Girls Composition.

Here is new little girls compo-
sition on woman, says the Phia-
delphia Times:
BOYS are men that have not
got as big as their papas, and girls
are women that will be ladies by
and by. Man was made before wo-
man. When God looked at Adam
He said to Himself: well, | think
| can do better if | try again" And
He made Eve. Bows are trouble.
They wear out everything but soap.
If I had my way the world would
be all girls and the rest dolls. My
papa is so nice that | think he
must have been a little girl when
he was little boy. Man was made
and on the seventh day he rested.
Woman was then made, and she has
never rested since"
