The county commissioners of Boulder
county will set a good example to ali
other parts of the state when they be-
gin in the coming year their campaign
for good roads.
Boulder is one of the wealthy coun-
ties and its development is in many re-
spects so uniform in relation to area
that it has great need for good roads to
connect its different towns and COM
munities with one another. But it is
not exceptional in this respect Other
counties have similar interest in good
road construction, and II all were to
enter vigorously upon work of that
kind. the grerter part of the state
would soon be blessed with excellent
highways.
Good road building is largely mat
ter of local concern, and efforts in that
direction depend for success more upon
local sentiment than upon that which
while more widespread is less potent.
The people who use the roads are the
people to demand that they be built,
and since the cost falls chiefly upon
them, their demands will be complied
with when made with sufficient empha-
sis and vigor. The people of Boulder
! will undoubtedly approve the action of
their commissioners in making good
roads throughout the county; and they
will get their reward not only in more
comfortable and economic travel, but
also in the praise of the remainder OF
! the state. Denver Republican.

has been the disappearance of the far
famed Rhode Island clam within the
last few years that the beds are now
practically exhausted and the fisher
men who have depended upon the
claiming industry for livelihood are
in despair. Many of the fishermen have
gone out of the business altogether,
while others have turned their atten-
ton to clam beds outside the state,
going even as far as Long Island
sound in their motor boats to gather
in the harvest of the bivalves.
Only "a few years ago it would have
been like carrying coal to Newcastle to
ship CLAIMS to Pawtuxet, but now the
Rhode Island markets are regularly
supplied by shipments from eastern
Maine and Nova Scotia and the prin-

To Preserve Maine Cod
And Lobster Fisheries.
Good Work Of Boothbay Hatch
cry Is Plainly Apparent.
Fishermen Help Uncle Sam and
Secure Better Fares.

Boothbay Harbor Me, March d.
To insure against the extinction of the
cod and the lobster in the waters of
Maine, the national government is
making unusual efforts this year in re-
stocking.
Millions of tiny cod eggs are being
collected daily by the fish commission
steamer Gannett and deposited in the
hatchery at Boolhbay.
Since the government began to take
an active part in the propagation of
the cod, the fishermen have been MAX
ing better fares and the fish are now
mere plentiful than they have been
for great many years. Much credit
for the present satisfactory condition
Is due the fishermen, who are cooper
ating with the government in the work,
realizing that it is of great benefit to
them.
Although much of the Gannett's time
Is devoted to the interest of the cod
the lobster is not being neglected.
Plenty of seed Holsters are being Sc
cured and these are treated in the
same way as the cod eggs.
