ROADS ON THE FARM.

In the consideration OF better biph-

not these alone that assist in promot-
ing the welfare of the farmer 1t is Il

roads that receive the name by cour-
tesy only, and which often are much
worse than the highways Paths with
deep ruts, lined with stones, are com
mon on farms. On them wagons are
strained. aNles sprung and teams
abused and made ballSy by the eNecra-
bic conditions OF work Men are gen
orally more careless about the condi.
ton OF the roads on the farms than
about the public roads; but they suffer
from them more constantly, and in the
end To as great an extent as from the
bad condition of the market roads.
If good highways are profitable to the
farmer, good farm roads are equally so.
To make them permanent. the small
stones gathered from the farm can be
used, after the top soil has been taken
of for use in one OF the many ways in
which it can be adyantageously en-
ployed on farm. The road must then
be arranged so that wnter will drain
