GOOD ROADS
CONVENTION
MEETS IN LOUISVILLE JUNE
81 and 2s,
Under Auspices National Good
Roads Association-Mod-
ell Roads.


been made for the Good RRoads
State Convention, to be held in
Louisville, June 81 and 2s. As
Gov. Beckham, by proclamation,
has asked the County Judges and
Mayors to appoint delegates, very
large attendance is expected. All
the railroads within two hundred
miles of Louisville will give one
fare rate to the convention, SO the
trip can be made at the least ex-
pense. The conventions held else
where in the South have drawn
large crowds, in addition to the
delegates.
President Moore, Of the National
Good Roads Association, will have
charge of the road making. He
has with him force of the finest
road engineers in the world, and
these will show how to build the
best and cheapest roads, and how
to keep them properly in repair.
AS the great majority of the 1885,
600 miles of roads in this State can
not be macadamized, a mile of mod
ern earth road will be constructed
that can be kept in order the whole
year round. While these dirt roads
are not equal to turnpikes when
properly constructed, they make
good thoroughfares and are easily
kept in order, at small expense.
The building of gravel and ma
cadsIn roads viii also be shown
after the best plans.
One of the interesting features of
the convention will be the exhibit
tion of. road making machinery.
There are eight carloads of these
tools. and they will be handled by
experts. The use of oil to lay dust
will be illustrated by practical
tests, and the proper kind of drain
pipes shown.
The machinery and the delegates
are carried. free by the Illinois
Central railroad, which is helping
the Gcc! roads increment.
The roads to be constructed will
be made after the best plans, such
as have been devised after long ex-
perience by road engineers in every every
part of the world.
The National Good Roads Asso-
citation has been ten years in grow
ing to it's present position of power
and usefulness. 1t first built good
roads at the Worlds Fair, and
since then has held eopventions in
every part of the United States. 1t
has secured the organization of a
Good Roads Bureau in the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and has sue
ceeded in having planks indorsing
good roads inserted in the platforms
of both parties. Its object is to
promote good roads legislation in
every State The next National
Convention will be held at Buffalo,
in September, and it is hoped that
this viii be the greatest good roads
meeting in the world. A State as
sociation will be organized at the
Louisville meeting, and delegates
sent from it to Buffalo.
| Addresses on good roads will be
made by Mr.. Henry Watterson and
Governor Beckham, and by many
others. The meetings will take
place in the open air where the
road building is going on.
The convention is purely State
affair, and it will be followed by
district conventions later at Hop
kinsville, Owensboro and probably
Henderson.

Sheep raisers think Is cents too
low for the wool crop, and can't un-
derstand why, if times are as good
and prosperity so abounding as
claimed, the flock can't come in
for'their share of prosperity pri-
ces" instead of a decline. Our
farmers are wisely paying more at
tention to stock breeding than in
recent years. The mistake of sac
rificing the famous bluegrass pas
lures to the tobacco craze is now
realized, but the beautiful wood
lands and fine grass lands of the
past cannot be restored. More
grass and more stock raising is now
the thing.-Cynthiana Times.
The men who bought lambs at
six cents now wish they hadn' as
six cent lambs are losing the deal
ers bushel of money. Many of
these lambs were bought to weigh
so much and be fat, and in conse
quence, it has to be a first class
lamb that the buyer will take;
sheep are at least a cent and half
lower than this time last year.
Many lambs are in the hands of
the farmers as they expected the
market to run like it did last year
when it got better all the time, and
those who held their lambs the
longest did the best. 1t looks now
like there will be some cheap
lambs after while.-Exchange.

with crops in Henry county. Thos.

David Wells set out part of his 10.

badly damaged in Henry county,
Most of the hogs in this section
have been shipped, in fact but very
few remain. Fewer hogs are being
fed for the summer market than
ever before known. This is owing
to the fact that hogs have been
bringing good prices for some time
and a nickel pound is a great
temptation to let them GO. Added
to this is the fact that corn is
scarce and high, and these facts
will account for the scarcity of fat
hogs for the summer market

La Fiesta

The concessionaires for the fiesta, Messrs Nj. NJ. Conn, Frank Main and Jack Gates, completed their prepara- tions early Saturday afternoon, and at evening the fiesta opened up, and has ever since been in prime running order.
 This year the fiesta ground has been changed, and now is located upon the little plaza facing the school house, in Nogales, Sonora, instead of upon Campo Marti, as formerly.
 There is the usual array of booths, including places of amusement, rest aurants, saloons, etc. lu two large tents are the games where nightly congregate numerous devotees of the goddess of chance, risking their coin upon roulette, monte, policy, and several other kinds of games. One room is devoted solely to monte and is the scene of some pretty heavy pays. The roulette wheels seem the centers of strongest attraction, aud around them there gather nightly goodly crowds Of men and women of all nationalities, all clink- ing their chips in their fingers aud watching with eager eyes the rolling ball aud the turn of the wheel. Some of the strongest players are ladies.
 h the cantinas (saloons) are to be found all the palate can de sire in the way of liquid refreshment, the rest surants set good tables and both are liOerally patronized.
 Everything is conducted quietly and decourously, the managers are ommipreseut looking carefully to the comfort and happiness of all visitors They have worked earnestly to make the fiesta success, which it is without qualification.

A Change In Traffic.

The mercantile community and carriers in the interior have awakened to the importance of La Colorado as a point for trans-shipment of merchant disc from rail to wagons or pack trains, and almost all the interior traffic now goes to that polnt-all the coke, ma chinery and supplies going out from there, and all the matte, bullion, etc, coming into that station. To meet the requirements of the traffic Colonel Seymour of the Torres & Prietas rail way, has fitJed up large corrals at La Colorado where the carriers can have free stabling for their animals, free water also, and are sold hay and grain at moderate prices. Upon all freight consigned to the care of his railway Colonel Seymour advances all charges, holds for forwarding without storage, and forwards without exact ing commissions.
 Americans having shipments for the interior will find this arrangement of great advantage, as with his twelve years experience in business in Sonora, Colonel Seymour can help them through the necessary technicalities and details of the business with the greatest facility and shortest possible despatch.
