The business man, the professional man
and the man of means and leisure is an
important factor in this general uplift
in the country. The city prospers when
the farmer is independent and affluent.
When the farm blossoms the city reaps
part of the harvest.
The automobile is doing more than any
other one thing, perhaps, in inspiring the
ambition for better roads. The rural free
delivery of mails is also important.
The farmer at first opposed the automo-
bile, but now he is coming to recognize
it as one of his best friends. 1t is help
ing in the building of good roads. The
automobile owner Is willing to help pay
for the building of roads and the farmer
gets his full share of the benefit.
Value of Roads.
He can haul twice as much produce to
market with less wear and tear on his
stock and wagons, and can do it quicker
and with a vast deal more comfort
In five years more the farmer will be
buying automobiles and will get still more
of the benefits of the good roads. He will
get some Of the cream.
