of Products Planned by
Men in Chicago.
Visitors VIII BE shown What COun-
try Yields and Pictures
of Scenery.

The role Of the exposition in aiding the
migrauons OF men to new homes, 20 op-
portunIties In new regions, and in popu-
lating the unpeOpled parts OF the United
States came in for comment by Secretary
Balunger. OF the Department Of the In
terror, when in Chicago recently
The railways OF the Northwest particu-
larly are turning toward that method.
with moving pictures to add TO the vivid
ness OF the story told at long range
about actual products, actual conditions,
and actual scenes which the land-hungry
or dissatisfied men and women would
find were they to take long journeys Of
investigation, In Chicago, at the gate
way 10 the North. South. and West. a
continuous exposition IS part Of the plan
OF the Northwest Opportunity League,
on whose advisory board are NJ. f. Hay,
governor OF Washington; Edwin l.. Nor
ris, governor Of Montana; Joseph Simon,
mayor OF Portland: Louis w. Hill, presl-
dent Of the Great Northern Railway;
Howard Elliott. president Of the North
ern Pacific Railway. and Darius Miller.
first vice president OF the Chicago, Bur
lington and Quincy Railway.
The visitor will be shown how the arid
lands are irrigated and will be given
concrete evidence Of the crops raised on
the once inhospitable soil" Secretary
Ballinger said. prospective settlers Of
the far West VIII be able to canvass all
the available areas and 10 ascertain the
exact conditions prevailing in each local
ity. Taking II all together, I cannot
praise the exposition too highly as an
educational feature, aiding the govern
ments work in reclaiming the arid lands
and encouraging settlement in these por-
tions OF the far West"
Secretary Ballinger's comment was in
particular concerning the land and irri-
cation exposition to be held for a few
days during November under the auspices
Of the Chicago Tribune. which has been
accepted with an enthusiasm that indi-
Gates how important a factor a perma-
nent central exposition to exploit a region
will become.

IMPROVEMENT WORK BEGINS
Jacksonville Active in Street Paving
and Sewer Construction.
Main ThOroughfares Being Resur-
faced and Others Receive
Attention.

Jacksonville. Fla. Nov. S-work upon
repairing the city's asphalt streets will
begin within day or two, all the mate
rials having arrived. With this and the
sewerage. the brick paving and the shell
street repairing work noe- Sc'H~ on. the
city will by next week be we'll started
upon the public improvements mapped
out under the new years budget.
The asphalt plant has arrived from
Chattanooga, the tools came yesterday.
and two carloads Of asphalt and one Of
cement were already on hand. Capo &
Drysdale the firm having the contract
for supplying the sand. have delivered
the first loads. Sand OF a very desirable
quality and that has received the approx
al of an asphalt authority In Chattanooga
will be used.
The wo-k will start Monday upon the
western end OF King street. The street
will be followed from that end to the
plaza. the work going down one side and
then back UP the other so as not 70 ne
cessitate the closing Of the street to
traffic.
The brick viii be removed from the
broken places In the asphalt street and
hauled away, to be used on other street
paving later. The repair plant will then
transform the old broken pavement into
one that is as good as or better than the
old when it was first laid. AS soon as King
street Is completed the others streets will
be taken as fast as possible and every
asphalt pavement in the city viii be gone
over.
The work Of exoavating for the new
storm sewer on Malaga street from King
to Valencia has begun by a force of men
under Contractor Melcher. This sewer Is
to follow Valencia 10 Ribera also. While
the men are breaking up and removing
the old asphalt concrete from Valencia
preparatory to the laying Of the new
brick pavement the work Of placing the
sewer on Malaga street Will go on, so
that there will be no delay. 1t viii not
take long to finish the work and place
the new catch-basins on Valencia street
as soon as the street is In shape TO allow
the work TO begin.
The bricks for the paving are on hand,
and Contractor Melcher anticipates that
he will be through the work well within
the contract time. The progress made
thus far upon the contract is most pleas
ing to the city officials.

GOOD ROADS MONEY SAVERS
Instance Cited in Tennessee Where
Land Values Increased.
Fine Highway Deciding Factor with
Farmer Who Wanted
TO Buy.

From the Savannah News
We printed an article the other day
giving an illustration Of how improved
roads are money savers TO the farmers.
iustanCing the fact that I'm Sumter Coun-
ty, Ca, two ordinary farm mules had
hauled ten bales OF cotton into Americus
at one load. thereby reducing the trans
portation cost 20 the planter not less than
80 1-3 per cent, and probably more. Now
we have Information from Sullivan Coun-
~ Tenn, going 20 show how good roads
are not only money savers, but money
makers.
A dispatch from Bristol to the Knox
Vile Journal and Tribune tells OF the sale
in Sullivan County Of a farm for upward
Of $4,000. Before the building OF the turn
pixies, the dispatch says, the farm would
have been sold at not over $1,000 There was
nothing in the sale that savored Of ficti-
tious valuation. The place was put up at
auction and sold 10 the highest bidder. II
therefore fetched just what IL was worth
in the open market and that was more
than twice its value a few years back
when there were no good roads connect
ing il with the town and shipping point
In all probability, the man who bought
the farm would not have bid on II at all

he assured of rural free delivery, where
his family could use the buggy or the au-
tomobile at any time, and where the cost
Of hauling would be reduced 10 a mini
mum. He was willing to pay a good
price for such place
The former owner OF the property saw
the value Of his farm doubled by the i'm
proved roads-that Is % say, the good
roads earned 5000 for him. II is safe to
say the improvements did not cost him
individually the twentieth part Of that
sum, or tho fftieth part. Could he pos
sibly have made better investment than
his small proportion Of the cost Of the
roads?
This is an interesting object lesson. but
we do not believe It is an isolated one.
We believe that hundreds of such Incl
dents have occurred since the construc-
ton Of good roads on an extensive scale
was begun. many OF them here in Geor-
gia And there will be thousands OF such
incidents as the movement progresses.
