there ls little doubt as to the early
completion of the road, as his line
is very anxious to get an outlet to
the Mississippi River, and that

Value of Good Roads.

While the farming class Is greatly
benefited by reason Of the en-
hanCed value OF property and better
facilities for hauling produce to
market, the value of good roads to
any city in the territory tributary
thereto cannot be oyerestimased.
This has been the experience Of
Denison, Tex, which has lent every
assistance to the good road work
near that place.
The cities and towns of Louisiana
can learn great deal from what
this little Texas city has done. II
has not only aided the good road
| work in this territory but it has
done everything possible to encour-
age the fruit and truck industry,
good roads beng On important fac.
tor in helping TO make this industry
profitable. Ct was the late Walter
jacobs idea. when he undertook ths
task Of organizing the Shreveport
Progressive League TO have th'
league devote most of ita energies
toward developing the agricnlsura
| and industrial resources ogaIl North
west Louisiana. He saw chat b,

furnished with an iron cot and a

Thaw would not be permitted to
have his food sent TO him from the

coffee for breakfast; roast or boiled
beet, vegetables and bread for din,
