DO State roads increase the value
Of nbuttlng property? Is a question
often asked Of the Massachusetts COM
mission AS n partial answer It can
be said that information has been re-
celved from distant parts Of the State
setting forth the fact that certain
farm lands which were on the market
for some years. without n customer,
were sold shortly after the completion
Of the State road, and at prices above
what they had been offered for AS
there are neither steam nor electric
railways within several miles Of some
Of the pieces of property referred to,
It Is fair to assume that the judgment
Of the local informants, who attribute
the sale and the rise In price to the
State road, is correct.
Although It is difficult to obtain d.
rect evidence as to a rise in the value
of property, there is no lack Of testi-
mOny as to the value Of the roads TO
the users Of them. From all parts Of
the State reports have been received
which clearly show a material reduc-
ton in time between given points, a
decrease In the number of horses on
certain stage, mail and milk routes,
and large increase in loads with the
same number of horses. These re-
suits surely mean that the social con-
ditions are improved, the cost of main
tanning regular lines Of transportation
by highway is reduced, and the pro-
duct of farms and isolated manufac-
tories is moved in q manner to in
crease the margin Of profit.
Real property is subject to the same
laws, whether it be urban, suburban
or rural. It's market value is regulat
ed by its earning capacity, its near
ness to beautiful or picturesque seen
cry, and still further by its religious
educational and social opportunities
A rise in value may follow an i'm
provement of any one Of these con
ditions, but 1t must follow a better
ment of all. The commission is con
fldent that the case is not misstate(
when it says that wherever a STATE
road has been begun, bettermen
along the lines suggested will follow
its completion.

Farmers, Roads.

A dispatch from Wabash, Ind, to
the State Journal says that farmers in
the northern part of Wabash County
are building gravel roads, Independent
OF the county commissioners, at a rate
which viii soon leave few Of the old
mud highways in existence, under a
system which makes construction easy
and cheap. One turnpike of ten miles,
extending from North Manchester to
Disko, is now being completed, and
the burden, under the self-assessment
system evolved, has scarcely been felt
among the land owners. These farm
ers entered into an agreement to build
the road, every owner of property
abutting joining in the pact to pay
S1.5O per acre in work or cash, within
three years. Land assessed extends
back a half mile on either side Of the
road. The work is done In dull sea-
sons, and the loss Of time is not felt
by the farmers, while the construction
Of the road is pushed rapidly. At the
end Of the three years the county COM

A NATIONAL MOVEMENT.
Magnitude OF the Effort to Change In
augurntion Day.

hukuANNANA my
A national movement has been
started from Washington by the in
auguration committee having for It's
object a change Of the date Of the
Inauguration from March to the last
of April This is not new move
ment but we believe 1t is the first time
1t has been undertaken in a way to
enlist directly the peoples influence.
It has been begun sufficiently far in
advance of the meeting Of Congress
to enable the promoters to bring to
bear whatever weight the scheme may
have acquired from their efforts.
An effort has been made to enlist
Congressman in the fight. 1t does not
appear that the latter are friendly to
the scheme. They feel some embar-
rassment on account of the changes
which go along with the alteration Of
Inauguration day, and they are, to
some extent, perplexed by the tenn
porary change in the term of the
presidency, for if the date is changed
the incoming President must either
lose two months of his term or he
must cut that much from his success
or's term. Still, f Congress can be
assured that the people desire the
change these embarrassments would
not prevent 1t. 1t Is not like some
other matters upon which that body Is
asked to legislate, and which more or
less involve their own interests. Leg
islators are apt to be apathetic con-
corning almost any question until 1t
is brought home to them that the peO-
pie demand 1t.
The arguments for a change have
been given so often as scarcely to need
repetition. One of the strongest is that
the Inauguration has become the
grandest and most inspiring of nation
al functions, and the American people
literally pour out to it from all quar-
tiers of the United States. This brings
many thousands from climates which
are quite the opposite Of that which
is likely to prevail in Washington on
the 4th of March, and subjects them
to contrasts very injurious to health.
In measure this applies to all who
attend the Inauguration. There is apt
to be either a down-pour Of rain or an
atmosphere which is more uncomfort-
able and more dangerous to health,
The people who have the patriotism
to attend the Inauguration are entitled,
it would seem, to have their comfort
and health considered in fixing the
date Of the august event.-Baltimore

Japan Quick to Use EleCtriCitv.

One Of the modern Western improve
ments to which the Japanese have
shown a most decided liking is cleo
tricity. In fact, the subtle force is so
simple in its application and Its re-
suits are so wonderful both in the
fields of light and power that 1t has
made its way to many parts of the
world where the people are much more
conservative than the active little peo-
pie Of Japan.
Electric lighting plants Of the most
complete designs have been erected in
Japan, in Yokohoma, Kobe, Toxic,
Kanagawa, Shinegawa, Osaka, KiotO,
Nagoya and other places. The plant
of Nagoya Is the latest constructed,
and it contains everything in the way
OF late improvements which ingenuity
has produced.

A ClrlIlrlng Influence.

Good roads are Of first Importance
as clylllzing influences, and a section
which lacks them is retarded IN every
thing which contributes TO progress.
Speeches and resolutions are well
enough, but demonstrations Of what

worth vastly more, especially when
they leave behind them something
which every citizen can understand

Cannot LIve WItheut Lenres.

Plants cannot live without leaves,
and when such pests as thistlef and
sassafras abound it Is only nee sssary
to keep them cut down to destroy
them. 1t is true that some farmers
cut them down frequently and yet
they continue to grow, but they live
because they get breathing spells;
that is, the farmer allows them to
grow some before he cuts them down
again. They must be cut down close
to the ground and again chopped of
rs soon as they make the least growth.
They may appear vigorous and full
Of life, but sooner or later they
be suffocated and perish, as they
not live without leaves.

vac Farmer and the Automobile.

Ordinarily the chauffeur on pleasure
bent takes only scant interest in that
branch of automobilism which Is con-
cerned with transportation of freight.
Nevertheless, there is an intimate and
necessary connection between the pro-
gress Of heavy motor wagon traffic
and the pleasures Of those who never
expect to operate an automobile for
utility purposes. These pleasures de-
pend very largely upon the mileage Of
good roads that are at ones disposal,
and the. goods roads problem depends
for its solution almost exclusively upon
the advancement of automobile freight
traffic and automobilism for agricul-
tural implements and the general hus-
bandry Of the farmer. So long as
the farmer is compelled to employ
horses anyway, for blowing his fields
and hauling produce and provisions
to and from town, so long will he be
disinclined to purchase automobiles
for any purpose, but the moment he
can dispense with all horses, save
perhaps one team, and can begin to
see a saving in doing so, he will also
be willing to listen to the financial
argument in favor Of good roads, and
this argument being immensely
strengthened when he can measure
