1Extracts from a paper by Prof. ". d.
Taylor, c. f., of the Louisiana State U"'-
ycrsity, in bulletin issued by Bureau OF
Agriculture
1Continued from last week..
In the preparation of this paper
I have looked with -s01be care INTO
the road laws OF this State. AS they
should, they put good deal Of au-
tborlty over tile roads into the
hands of the Police Jurles, and the
Supreme Court of the State has mp
held the view that the Police Jurles
of the respective parishes are, by
the laws of tho State, clothed with
exclusive power to regulate by ordi-
nances the manner of making and
repairing The public roads. So the
power to set aside the Objectionable
clabor- system rests largely iii the
hands of the. Police Juries. But it
is true that the roads over a large
proportion OF the State are worked
only by the old labor system before
described.
Now. it is a self fCv;llent fact that
~ Travelled road can no more be kept
in order without constant attention
than can q farm or in inhabited
house. On the well nigh perfect
highways of Europe the traveller in
the daylight hours is rarely out OF
sight of a road worker.
We will never have good roads,
and good roads that cost us little,
until We so modify our road regula-
tons as to keep the road under the
constant attention of some one, sc
as 10 DG aUlG 10 lnvG some one per
sonally responsible at all times for
the condition of the road. This is
!. certainly not al impossibility under
cur present laws, but it does seem
that State laws which render posi-
DIG t''a continuance of such ohjec
tionable and r"sairient means o1
working our highways Ought Co b(
repealed. Almost every important
road law of this State is more tlla,
" quarter OF a century old, an1
nearly all of them dale cack tt
slavery times, when our social con
.ditions were wholly different from
what they HOW arc. No Wonder,
then, that they are out of date, and
that new laws are needed for the
whole State.

There is more Catarrh in this section of
:the country than all ether diseases put
together, and until the last fey years was
supposed to be incurablc. For a great
many years doctors pronounced it a loca

by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurablc.
