 Social and Other Items.
 Rev. Dr. Sneath pastor of the Grand Avenue Congregational church, ad- dressed his people yesterday morning upon the two years of his pastorate with them. He said in part
 Two years ago we began our pas toral relation. They have been full of busy scenes. There were the repairs and Improvements upon this building, costing fifteen thousand dollars; also reopening week, the seventy-ffth anni- versary, a week of evangelism and oth- CT interesting occasions. Sixty-one per- sons were received into the church. There were forty-siX funerals, forty eight baptisms and ten marriages. Sev- enteen thousand dollars have been re- ceived and expended on current ex- penses, repair, debt and philanthropies. There are some things to regret, but many things over which to rejoice. Every church, with its pastor, faces a threefold problem. The first part of this problem is the spiritual welfare of it's membership. Too many of the mem bers of this church are indifferent to ths But with church membership of S36, Sunday school of 506, a Y. P. s. c. D. of nearly 100 members, and wit!T" large number of young people coming into the church, the spiritual outlook is promising.
 "The second part of the problem is the parish. Marked changes are taking place in the constituency of this parish, due to the changing character of the population of Fair Haven This calls for persistent effort along new lines of work.
 "The third part of the problem is the | financial one No church can be con- ducted without money. But where there Is loyalty in the payment of pew rentals and in supporting the various agencies for obtaining funds the finan- cial matters of a church become sim pie problem.
 i If this church, with resident mem bership of six hundred, can contribute seventeen thousand dollars In two years, we need not fear to SD forward hopefully along financial lines. With a good plant, wide field a body of loyal workers, let us all go at it and make the year 1O6 epochal in the history of this church"
 At the close of the service the sacra' ment of the Lords supper was ob' | served.

Times has pointed out in the past, it
is decidedly difficult matter to con-
struct road which will meet the re-
quirements of those who pretend to
work according to scientific principles.
Macadam is out OF the question be-
cause of the scarcity of stone. And
even If that were not true the bed for
this kind of a road structure would
be decidedly difficult to secure in a
country where the soil is of the char
acter found in North Dakota The
same is true of the other artificial
materials.
+ In practical sense it is necessary
to devise some plan for constructing
a good road out of the material found
in the vicinity in which the road is
built If this material is used it Is
necessary to have good drainage so
that the water will not stand on top
of the road bed. and especially so
that it will not penetrate the surface.
If the road be properly constructed
with reference to drainage it will be
found that water will have but little
effect, especially If the surface be suf-
ficiently compact to serve as sort
OF shell. This last is now regarded as
the secret of road building in coun-
tries like the greater portion of this
state.
This condition Is secured in two
ways. One is the use of rolling or
dragging machinery. the simplest and
cheapest of which is known as the
split log drag which has been success
fully tried in Polk county. MINI.
The trouble. however, is to main
tain the results from this method after
they have been secured. This is best
done by the second method and means
the use of wide tire for the heavy draft
vehicles.
Not only do these latter serve as
road builders, filling the place of
heavy rolling machinery for harden
ing the surface. but they permit the
hauling of heavier loads when the
roads are in good condition. True they
would prove almost if not entirely
useless on roads whose surface had
been cut into ruts by the use of mar
row tires, but if their use were gen.
eral the loads carried with the same
motive power would be considerably
increased.
If the Barnes county farmers can
devise means by which the roads can
first be built sufficiently high that the
drainage matter will be answered, and
can then induce a general use of wide
tires they will have done North Da-
kota substantial good.

GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.

The farmers of Barnes county have
taken up the matter of good roads,
and have called a meeting for the
purpose of considering the best means
of accomplishing the desired results.
Good roads are not only matters of
financial interest to the farmers but
more especially to the trades people
of the towns to which they lead. The
Evening Times is an earnest advocate
OF the good roads question. 1t is such
because the prosperity of community
is largely dependent upon them for
its prosperity.
The country roads should be such
that the farmers can at all times reach
the grain markets and the trading GEN.
tiers with heavy loads without extra
draft upon their teams. Horses cost
money, and the constant dragging over
heavy and rough roads soon wear GU,
the best teams. Nor is this all. II
because of the heavy conditions of the
road over which the farmer is COM
PEELED to market his crop, team can
only draw half as much and at a
slower speed, it is evident that it will
cost the farmer more than twice what
it otherwise would to market his crops.
This extra cost of marketing ma
terially reduces the net profit on the
crop and becomes in fact decidedly
heavy tax on the grain growers. This
money is taken from the regular chan
nels of trade and therefore Injuries the
general business of the country lust
that much. No matter if the farmer
does do the extra work largely him
self, he could devote that time and en-
ergy to other lines which would yield
returns.

YOUNG MEN AND THE FARM.

The advantages Of farm life to the
young men of this generation are re-
ceiving careful and earnest attention
rom thinkers in every part of the
country. The pedulum is swinging to
the other side and in few years the
brightest and brainiest men in the ma
ton will be found on the farms and
engaged in agricultural pursuits.
Andrew NJ. Soul, professor in one
OF the leading agricultural colleges of
Texas recently delivered an address
In which among other things, he stated
that those who are familiar with
agricultural conditions in the South
realize that the greatest problem re-
quiring solution at the present time is
the improvement of our landed areas
and the permanent maintenance of
soil fertility. On the contamination of
this most desirable end rests the flu
ture status of the South as an agri-
cultural country. Industrial develop
ment has gone forward with tremend-
ous strides in the last few years and
the natural resources of the country
are being exploited, and this process
will continue for many years to come.
Everywhere there is evidence of the
need of better methods of farm prac-
tice. more careful and rational tillage
Of the soil, and the adaptation and
utilization of labor-saving machinery.
Do these things not call for leader
ship. and leadership of the highest
type? Skill is at premium in every
walk of life except that of

Grand Forks, N. D., July 9, 1906.
To the Republican Press of North Da-
kota:
On next Thursday the republican
state convention will be held at James,
town. While the primary duty of the
delegates there assembled may be the
selection of competent men as candi-
dates for the various state Offices at
the November election. it has occurred
to me that an exceptional opportunity
and privilege is afforded those dele
gates, at this time, to render great
service, not only to the state, but to
the nation.
Before offering the following sug-
gestion l wish to state plainly that my
reason for SO doing is that l am a
republican-never having voted any
but the straight republican ticket-who
desires to see the administration of
our great commoner, Theodore RoOse-
welt, succeeded by four years more of
republican prosperity. Mr.. Roosevelt
has stated emphatically that he will
not accept another nomination. He is
a man of his word. 1t will be con-
ceded by close observers of current
events that William Jennings Bryan
will be the nominee of the democratic
party. That Mr.. Bryan is strong
man and will be supported by the so
called conservatives In the east as we'll
as his own wing Of the democratic
party, goes without saying. Mr.. Bryan
has always played to the masses, and
his nomination will mean that IL the
republicans expect to win they will
have to nominate and support man
who is one Of the plain people, man
with an honest sense and knowledge of
the rights and interests of the people
OF this nation as whole. 1t is only
with such man as standard bearer in
1908 that the republicans can do the
work which Mr.. Bryan's nomination
will cut out for them. Public senti-
ment is so strong against the large
corporations that the candidate who
