\ somewhat novel case waxArought
In the Washington County courts yes
terday. IL is that OF a farmer who
sues for damages because the public
roads in his section OF the county
were impossible. He had hay 10 sell
and had market for IL in town, but
could not make delivery. His suit
is 10 recover the amount he lost by
reason Of his inability 20 get the hay
TO market
IL is not proposed here 10 discuss
the legal aspect OF this claim. That
may be left 20 the courts of competent
jurisdiction. But the case is in
structive in its economic aspect. Cit
liens OF rural communities beyond
numbering suffer heavy losses an
nually because the highways are unfit
for the transportation Co market OF
the commodities they have to sell. In
some cases the fault is their own, for
they will not willingly contribute to
road Improvement In other cases
the taxes they pay are squandered
with hardly a pretense of making
passable roadways. In too many
cases the men who undertake 10 SUI
pervise the road making have no
knowledge of the subject. and. ap-
parently. not enough of common
sense TO know that water will not run
up hill. One of the NEST frequent de-
fects in the roads is lack Of drainage.

The skirt that allows OF effecssve

much in demand Just now, for stripes
are in the height OF style and chevron
effects are much in vogue. This one
can be so treated with singular sue
cess, yet need not be confined TO
striped fabrics, as il is a simple gored
skirt which can be cut from any sea-
sonable material and either left plain
or trimmed. as liked. In this instance
the stripes are made to form a sue
cession OF chevrons at the front and
at the sides, but even IL striped ma

straight. If preferred. Indeed. the
stripes allowed 10 take the perpendic-
ular line and the skirt trimmed with
a bias band above the hem make a
combination much in vogue and alto
gether satisfactory.
The skirt is cut in four cores and
there is consequently a seam at the
centre front and one at the centre

pleats.

1t is just as necessary to provide
for housing an American ambassador
or minister as it is to set aside money
