VIEWS ON GRANGE WORK.

state Master Horton of Michigan
Gives Answer TO Some Questions.
Hon. George B. Horton, master Of
Michigan state grange, has for several
years been at the head of the grange
movement, and by his individual eff
forts. seconded by strong deputy or
ganization, has built up the grange to-
its present high standard in that state.
III recent interview he was asked if
lie saw any danger, or signs Of danger,
ahead in the grange movement; II
80, what are they? He replied: In
times of prosperity there is danger of
those being attracted to activity for
selfish purposes. For farmers, by farm
ers and in the interest of farmers
should be the words passed all along
grange lines. No matter how seemingly
sincere or earnest and solicitous for our
welfare, be watchfrl of the active
movements of those members not di-
rectly interested in the filling Of the soil
or III farm life"
Asked if the grange was undertaking
too many things in national and state
legislation, and If it would not be wiser
to attempt less and perhaps secure
more, Mr.. Horton replied: There is
very little danger of the grange be-
coming overaggressive. Our chief care
should be to espouse reforms based
upon common sense and Justice. II we
are wise in this, the good name of the
grange will be perpetuated through
generations to come. Z
Asked what questions Of public
nature are now demanding the atten-
ton Of the grange in Michigan, Mr..
Horton said: I'VE are attempting to
amend the direct nominations law and
also enact good roads legislation in a
rational way. We are discussing for
estry from the farmers standpoint and
have kept up the agitation for the de-
natured alcohol law, which is now on
our statute books. =

A fifteen or twenty minutes rest and
relaxation in the middle of hard
afternoons work will often be of more
value to the good housewife, touching
the matter of progress with her work,
than an hour and half spent at the
tasks themselves after the point of
fatigue and exhaustion has been reach
ed. A chair with an adjustable back in
which one can recline at an angle Of
forty-five degrees is an excellent place
for these short rests.

tons to more than pay for stout can

there is an abundance of slough grass
the canvas may be dispensed with, but
so much does a stack of clover hay

new idea and because the old idea
that anybody can make a road is
still an uneXplOded delusiOn.
But this condition should be a
matter of small moment to any
one whO' would follow this new
path of endeavOr; for the insistent
demand for good roads that
arises from everywhere, is sig
nificant. 1t means that the old
order changeth, yielding place to
to new'', and that the door is
ready for the unlocking by any
enthusiastic young man who has
taken his degree" in road build
ing"
The road demonstration at
Lafayette was earnestly desired
for two reasons: first, that men
learned in their profession
should build roads as they should
be built with our soil to show the
value and economy of good roads.
Second, that the young men of

the town and parish should be
given an opportunity to learn I'M

free by the national government,
and after the lesson was taught.
the demonstration made, they
could go out to the highways of
the parish or into the streets of
the town and build roads with
the peoples money securing best
results at the least possible cost.
The parish could afford to pay
such young men well: but will
there be such young men? The
work is progressing daily, the
object lesson road is growing,
and yet-how many earnest
young men are out there eager
and anxious to learn every detail.
Director Harrison, who is in
charge of the demonstration, will
receive any such young men
gladly and give them all the in
structions possible. o.

and a new profession of splendid
possibilities invites the bright,
intelligent young men of our
schools and colleges to a life
work of usefulness and hand
some remuneration.
Here in Lafayette there is a
demonstration of road building
proceeding according to the best
knowledge of the art, for it is an
art and a most useful one, that
carries with it not only a lesson
to the older people as to what
possibilities there are in mould
ing the dirt in difficult situations
to answer the requirements of
travel, but presents to the young
a new profession, for it is but a
question of time when road
builders" will be sought for
eagerly to take charge of our
public roads. That they are not
generally sought now is because
professional road building is a

the full charge of the roads in a
certain district and he will be
held accountable as a bonded Off
Ger for the correct performance
Of his duties. The size of the
district will necessarily depend
upon conditions, and the selection
of the one man, whose title will
be superintendent of roads, will
absolutely depend upon his
knowledge and experience in
roadbuilding, as will also be that
of his assistants.
The day of "road working
will soon see it's setting and in
it's place will rise the morn of
"roadbuilding", which will as

A NEW PROFESSION.

The awakening throughout the
country to the Importance of
good roads is an assurance that
a time has come when the bur-
ders of bad roads will no longer
be suffered without protest, and
that a movement has begun
which will only reach it's culmi-
nation in the complete abolish
ment of poor highways.
And following al a consequent
to this movement. the systems in
vogue throughout the States,
which have shown their in
efficiency, will be discarded, and
better supplied. The old idea
that the roads were everybody's
business will be laid aside, and
so will the practice of entrust-
ing their care to overseers whose
only qualification is that they
are citizens of the ward. In
stead Of distributing response
bilities the very opposite will be
done. To one man will be given

THE ISSUE BEFORE THE
PEOPLE.

The question of the bond issue
is now squarely before the
people. 1t represents another ef-
fort on the part of the town to take
a forward step along the road of
progress. Should there be any
who hesitate to vote the tax, let
them consider seriously the fact
that the move is endorsed by
the entire City Council, by parish
officials, by bankers, members
of corporations, lawyers. teach
ers, newspapermen, merchants,
and men in every walk of life. It
is especially significant that the
men of wealth are practically
unanimous in support of the
move. All those who advocate
this tax expect to pay the tax
and why do they want to do so?
There must be an excellent
reason, and there is. The con.
templated move means growth
and growth means increased
property values. It also means
more facilities for educating the
children who in turn make better
citizens and the better the citi-
zens the better the government,
which in itself is well worth be-
ing sought for zealously. Andfur-
Their, the advocates of the bond
issue appreciate its potentialities
for returning to the community
as a whole and to themselve in
dividually a hundred fold in bene-
fits. They appreciate the fact,
too, that continued growth is the
only thing that will sustain
values and render possible a
profit, for without growth a GER
tain part of the population must
leave, which lessons the
demand for homes and curtails
business, which in turns dis
clerks and so the de-
cline continues.
Forward or backward is the
inexOrable law of nature and
those cities and towns which
choose to 60 forward return
largely to their citizens in COM
pleasures, employment
and opportunities. They retain
their sons and daughters at
home to be a comfort and solace
to their parents in old age, while
nOn-progressive towns see the
best of their youths go elsewhere
to secure the opportunities that
the blindness of parents re-
fuses them.
Lafayette in this bond issue
move is ranged on the side of
progress, and the move is for the
highest welfare of all. Let us
see it right and not be penny
wise and pound foolish.
