ROAD IMPROVEMENT,
Why the City Resident Gains as
Much as the Farmer.
BAD ROADS AFFECT MARKET.

Products That Would Reach the Cities
IL the Highways Were Good Are Held
Back and Co Into the Hands Of the
Speeuiator.
In many respects there is certain
amount Of crudenesS In the different
phases Of our physical condition This
Is more apparent in our country roads
than almost any other says the Motor
News. The system Of road building
has been faulty as well as costly.
Much expense has been put upon the
common roads year after year, and
still there are seasons when most roads
are In an unfit condition for general
I purposes. This Is not the fault of pur-
pose. but OF mode OF treatment. Much
Of course is due to the newneSs Of the
country and the constant demand for
labor and cost in making farms, build
ing bridges and otherwise attending to
what may properly be regarded OF
prime Importance. AS the country ad-
vanceS in other respects the necessity
AQE EN04 AN4An hCEQAAEc AANAS AAACArACAAs
A few thoughts upon this subject
from a prominent citizen of Michigan
may not be amiss: IF the common
roads of the country were brought to
a condition that would enable farmers
TO market their products at all seasons
of the year, the cost of living in town
and city would be greatly lessened,
and discomfort among labOring people
and the operatives of industrial con-
Germs would largely decrease If 1t did
not entirely disappear. Why and how
are the two questions which must be
answered.
Present road conditions compel |
farmers to rush their products to mar
ket as soon as harvested and when
roads are at their best, since by wait
ing a convenient time they may not
get there at all because of bad roads.
This naturally congests the market,
forcing low prices to the great detri-
ment of the producer and without ap-
preciable benefit to the consumer, be-
cause the average family in town or
,ity buys only in small quantities at one
time, say a days or a weeks supply.
What is the result7
''The speculator, finding prices low
md knowing that In little while the
BAD roads season will be on, when
products will be kept from
he trade centers, buys up the surplus
Ind stores it away for the day Of ne
essity, when he can demand and re-
eive his own price for his holdings
he stuff for which men toll, which
hey are compelled to have at what
yer cost. And when the citizen In
0wns-the mechanic and operative of
hops and factory-ls forced in winter
nd spring to pay exorbitant prices for
hose articles of household necessity
'hich went begging for buyers at low
rlces the preceding fall he figures the 4
lcreased cost of living in comparison
nd grows restless and dlscontented. :
he resident of the city Is the gamer
Y good roads just as much as the
lrmer."

In the open, under which from tfth
to a half Of it is practically spoiled as
a result of rains and exposure to the
weather, there would seem to be one
line OF farming which offers room for
considerable improvement. The situa-
tion, which in many cases cannot be got
around except by stacking under COW
er. would seem to point to the advisa-
bility of reducing the area Of meadow
land to the lowest possible point and
devoting the land thus recovered to the

Cotton Receipts Smaller.

Owing to the policy of most of the farmers in holding their cotton for fu' ture market, the receipts in Little Rock since the beginning of the sea son are only one-half of those during the same period last year The re- ceipts this year since September L were 46,631 bales, as against 91, ,453 last year.
 Acting Governor X. O. Pin dall, who has made several trips to the state convict farm, remaining there as long as a week at a time Investigating the manner i'll which the plantation is operated, and who has suggested number of changes in the method of work, now offers another change, the object of which is the es- tablishment of a plant on the farm for the manufacture of cotton bagging. Governor Pindall has filed with the penitentiary board a resolution en- bodying his views regarding the estab- lishment of such a plant, if feasible, having his reasons therefor, on the reported fact that the cotton bagginS industry of the country is controlled

FORTUNE IN INGENIOUS IDEA
Northern Mans Clever Scheme to
 Bore Through Quicksand.

R. E, Blowin, superintendent of the Louisiana state experiment. station at New Orleans, keeps in touch with all the industries of the south although the experiment station over which he presides is devoted largely to the de velopment of the sugar industry
 There is one industry in our state" said Mr. Blowin to the Washington Post, that is making it's owner a millionaire. We have an immense sul- phur deposit that our people have tried for years to operate, but without success. It was found beneath an enormous quicksand, and no one ever was able to overcome that obstacle. Finally this northern man came down and he mastered the problem by an ingenious plan. He sank three great tubes through the quicksand, one tube within the other. Through one tube he forces Superheated steam into the sulphur deposit; through the other he obtains his exhaust, and he gets his sulphur through the intermediary pipe. The steam melts the sulphur and forces it as a molten liquor to the surface, where it is carried off to a suitable spot, and drained into an artificial pond, making a lake of solid sulphur after it becomes cold. As it comes from the earth this deposit is more than 98 per cent. pure sulphur, so you can see what a valuable indus try the ingenuity of this man has brought to him.

As the touch of genius lifts the master above the mere musician, so this sense of the unseen lifts the ideal minister above the mere preacher of sermons. It is the investiture of priesthood verified not by tradition but by experience. It is immediacy of access to the eternal fountains of sal vation. He lives among men as one of them, simple, unselfish, human, hope full, yet they know that he walks with God
 And by the vision splendid

 He is a scholar, but criticism has never violated that shrine of the spirit where the pure in heart see God, says a writer in The Atlantic The unfading newness of everlasting truth gives to his speech the fresh ness of springtime. The unsearchable mystery of infinite holiness gives to his thought and conduct gravity and reserve, as one who has beheld things which it is not possible for man to utter. The demands of social service have not stamped him with the pro- fessionalism of a reformer. The ardor of churchmanship has not made him an ecclesiastic. He remains prophet of the highest When he speaks men feel that he is standing on holy ground. When he prays men perceive that he is prostrating himself before the risen Christ.
