One practical way that has been
very successful in the building of good
roads is for townships thru which an
improved road is constructed to issue
ten or twentyyesr bonds, payment of
same to be guaranteed by the county,
and in this way secure the lowest rate
of interest on the bond issue. When
the proposition is financed in this way,
Il contract for certain amount of road
building is let and paid from the re-
ceipts from the sale of bonds, which in
time are paid from the receipts of a
tax levy on the township thru which
the road is built So far as we are adj
vised, where this system has been
adopted, it has only been necessary to
induce one township to build road
when others adjoining fall In line. AS
matter of fact, the adjoining town
ships are soon convinced by practical
demonstration that they can not at
ford to not build good roads The adj
vance in the price of lands adjacent to
the newly constructed road is within
short time equal to or in excess of the
entire cost of the construction. The
farmers at once recognize the plan as
a valuable investment and are not slow
to follow the example of their neigh
bors. Again the farmer on the mud
road is limited to the busy seasons in
which to market the products of his
farm while his more fortunate neigh
Dor on the improved road markets his
products when the mud road is idle.
With these conditions. how long will 1t
be until all of the roads in any pro-
gressive community are improved? The
deeper the mud and the longer the
roads are out of commission the great
er the benefit when improved. Where
does the mud get deeper and where
are the roads impracticable for use
longer than in Iowa?
Now, just word as to the cost un-
der the state aid plan. we give it as
our opinion that a PIG mill state levy
paying one-half of the cost would be
such an incentive to the construction
of good roads in Iowa that the local
communities would issue bonds to pro-
vide the other one-hah and in ten
years every main travelled road In the
state would be improved at cost IN
taxation not to exceed 81 per acre on
the farm land of the state. Assuming
that this opinion is correct, how can
the farmers double and treble the In
vestment faster than by making good
roads? We are willing to stake our
reputation as a prophet based upon
actual observation that 50 per acre on
the lands of Iowa invested in the sci
entific construction Of highways will
add from So to $50 per acre to the
farms of Iowa.
II desire to thank the members OF
the association and especially the ex-
ecutive committee for the courteous
assistance and treatment accorded me
as president of the association during
the past year"

HOGS NEARLY KILL BABE.
Some Hope for Recovery of oskaIoosa
2-Year- Old.


Special to Times Republican
Oskaloosa, June ,3-Attacked by two
angered sows, Lawrence Scharff, the
2-year-ol son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed
Scharff living near Lacey, was nearly
eaten alive. The Infatuated animals
succeeded in getting the boy down on
the ground, biting his ankles and legs
severely and were in the act of literally
eating him alive when the mother
caught sight of her child in his per-
ilous condition, and crying loudly for
help, rushed at the angered pigs. BY
thrusting her hands in its mouth. she
succeeded in protecting her baby from
one of the furious animals, while her
husband, who soon came to her as
sstance, succeeded in beating the 9TH
er into submission. 1t was in the even
ing and, as the hired hand about the
place was away Mrs. Scharff was as
sisting her husband with the evening
chores Mr.. Scharff was engaged in
milking and Lawrence had been al
lowed to go out into the barnyard
with them. Mr.. Scharff had been ring
ing the hogs in the morning and
turned them out into the yard little
suspecting that they would attempt
furious attack without further provo
cation.
"A physician was called at once and
the boys wounds were cleaned and
dressed. The boy was not only bitten
in numerous places, but also badly
bruised and blood poison was feared,
but later developments have given
homes for the child's recovery and
today the doctors believe he is out of
danger.
Mrs. Scharff is the daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. o. A. Martin, living in this
city.
