mont of n Town

How They Cnn Aid In the Develop
mcnt of II Town. ~
The gcsd roads campaign now being
carried on Is certain to be resultful Of
great good. 1t is movement that ap-
peals to every citizen from the hum
biest to the highest and is u vital cues
ton for the business man and the
farmer. The poor roads in many Of the
states both east and west north and
south, arc denominations, ana annually
cost the people hundreds Of millions of
dollars in losses and In extra labor, not
taking into consideration the humane
principles involved
Business men Of every town should
give the good roads project the most
hearty support, says u. NJ. Carr in the
Home Trade Advocate. There is no
better work for commercial clubs to do
than to put forth every effort to have
the roads leading to the home town q
model road. Often a good road Is
either the making of a town or its OBJ
liberation from the list of progressive
places. Every rural town is dependent
to greater or less extent upon the
trade of the people residing in the near
by country. For any cause-and too
often poor road is the causc-if this
trade be diverted, the town suffers.
The proposed cooperation of the ma
tional government with the different
states in road Improvement and con-
struction should not be considered
lightly. 1t is deserving of the most sub
stantial support. In this matter every
political phase should be buried, and
united every class regardless of polIti-
cal belief and aff1llation should urge
congress to take favorable action. The
millions that the proposed work will
cost will bear interest thousandfold.
Let every one feel that he is personally
interested in this movement and do his
part toward bringing about the desired
conditions which high class roads will
bring.

HOME TRADE, HINTS.

Well kept streets are important. Tho
town that has dirty appearance fails
to make Q good impression upon the
strangers who may visit it.
Every business man Of a town should
give heartiest support to the good roads
movement. The better the roads lead
ing to a town are the more will the
farmer seek the place.
Towns are gagged according to the
business that Is transacted within their
limits. In good towns are found good
ssc10olA and churches and other public
and semipubltc institutions that are
necessary In civilization.
Every school district should have its
farmers club. and meetings should be
held regularly for discussion OF mat
tiers Of local Importance. These clubs
can be made power for good and

They should be educational and social
