FOR GOOD ROADS
Their Effect Upon Markets Is Serious
Consideration

A highly important feature of the
highways question is the effect good
or bad roads. have upon the local mar
kets and their sources Of supply. In all
the cities and large towns of the state
there IS demand for farm products,
and for the bulkier and heavier prod
ucts, such as hay and straw and grain.
In mary cases the surrounding country
is quite capable of supplying that de-
mard; in all cases it should Go so as far
as possible; in most cases it does not.
Instead, supplies are brought in by rail
or canal from far away. perhaps from
other states; while at the same time,
within a few miles of the market thus
supplied, are farms that have been
abandoned as rot worth working. and
others whose owners are in chronic dis
contert and despair at the apparent i'm
possibility of getting profitable prices
for their crops The big farms of the
west. they say. monopolize the markets.
and so farming here no longer pays.
Now, one prime secret of the trouble
lies in the bad roads. which keep the
producer and the consumer apart, by
making it difficult if not impossible for
the farmers to get their produce to mar
ket. The farmer thousand miles away
can get his crops to market by rail or
canal more easily and more cheaply than
the farmer only ten miles away can haul
his in over roads that are so hily and
rough and miry that half ton is heavy
load for horse to draw a a slow foot
pace. 1t is not that farms in the east are
no longer productive. nor that the east
ern market no longer offers fair prices.
1t is that the roads between the farms
shipment Improbable. Good roads
throughout the farming region adjacent
to the cities and towns would do more
than anything e,se to restore prosper
ity to the farmers. enabling them to get
their goods to the best possible market
easily, promptly and cheaply Good
roads would mean good farms, good
markets. good prices and good times
for all concerned
To sat the inmates of the state prisons
at work building such reads would be a
particularly appropriate proceeding
The criminal is an enemy of the COM
munity and of the general welfare. and
he would thus be made to minister to
one of the chief needs of the community
and to promote the general welfare in
the most effectual manner. He would be

own health, he would be much more than
paying the cost of his trial and, confine-
ment. and he would be comforting a per-

PEACE NEGOTIATIONS

LONDON July 6-In the house oil

delay in the settlement of peace terms
between Turkey and Greece was en-
! tirsly the fault of the former power
There was no delay so far as the con-
certed powers were concerned. but Tur-
( key had carried deliberation and cir
cumspection to such an excess that de.
/ lay was not without danger, though the
danger was, not immediate. They were
apparently at present no nearer to a
solution Of the question than al tha
beginning. Having alluded to the situ-
alton in 1873, pointing out that then a
Russian army was at the gates of Con
stantinople, the Marquis of Salisbury
remarked that. as proportioned to the
circumstances the year 1897 became
analago us to the year 1873, so his hopes
of a satisfactory result increases.

has decided that he will never sign an

proposed by the Ambassadors. At the
