As road building progresses the
fact should not be lost sight of that
something is due WaAahachie, Those
streets over which traffic will pro-
ceed from the piked roads to the
square should be designated and the
work of grading and grayeling those
streets should be done now instead
of at the end of this campaign
against black dirt. II should also be
remembered that the county judge
and commissioners, before the cleo
ton. invited the cooperation Of a
citizens conference committee.
Would not now be good time for a
committee and court consultation?

In the future development We
must agree that the most important
work lies in settling the state with
a desirable class of farmers, men
who are financially able to own
homes, or at least who are suffici-
entity versed in modern farming to
be classed among the progressive
elements of that vocation With the
proper settling of the state by this
class of people Will naturally and
quite easily come greater cities,

Cities may be builded, railways
may be extended, rivers and harbors
may be improved and factory build

will never bring the prosperity to
which it must depend for sustenance
in the long run. There

is the doubling and trebling of the

demonstrate to the farmers of other
states that Texas soil is more pro-

In spite of the fact that Allan
ia, Ga, is a "dry" town the
police record for the first six
months of 1909 shows a total of
1875 arrests for drunkenness.
The record for a similar period
last year was 1923, which shows
that drunkenness must be in
creasing under the dry" regime
and would lead one to believe
that the near beer" they drink
down south must be as fierce in
its effects as is the bootleg"
booze on the Nez Perez reserva-
ton.

blight, make the tree strong and

The sulphur goes through all
