GOOD ROADS!
VALUABLE FARMS
Wherever A Stone Road Is Made

Enhanced In Value.

joying the benefit. Lands havo SCARED
in value.
There are about 200 miles of roads
in the State, Of which 55i have stone
surface and 56 shell surface. Chert
and gravel have been used on 502 miles
and sand-clay mixture on 342l miles.
BY the use of machinery and drags i3. i5f
miles have been put in good condition.
Last year Georgia spent $3O.5l mile
for roads.
A recent estimate of the increased
property valuation for taxation in Dur
ham County, N. c., places the gain al
50, 600, 0e0, as compared with last year.
This is said to be due in large part to
the good roads that have been built
throughout the county. Az no recent
period has the gain been larger. and the
figures are being used as an argument
to show opponents of progress that i'm
proved roads mean increased wealth
both to the county and the individual.
"a good road moves the farm nearer
town." says report from Virginia, in
which is related the details Of an ex-
pertinent at Culpepper short time ago.
A large tannery at Spcrryville, twenty
miles away. had been hauling coal from
the railroad at Culpepper with a six
mule team. The company tried motor
truck for consignment of eighteen
tons and moved it all in six trips occupy
ing two and half days. The mule team
had been taking two weeks for the same
amount of work.
Four counties in Mississippi have
agreed to call elections for voting on
an aggregate of $1,000 for roads,
Kinds County, in which Jackson is To-
Gated. will vote on 5000, 900. Three
fourths of the citizens petitioned for
the election showing the trend Of public
feeling in the matter.
In Alabama, Dallas County has sold
its bond issue of $3.50, 600, and prelimin-
ary steps have been taken to start on an
era of good roads building. Every road
in the county is to be put in good con-
dition. Marengo County will vote on
$500, 900 os good roads bonds next month,
while similar issues are being agitated
in several other counties.
From all other States the story is the
same. Millions OF dollars are being
spent for good roads with the full
knowledge that the outlay will be more
than compensated in increased real es-
tate values.

The work of building State roads ir
Worcester County is going to be the
greatest thing for our people they evei
had done for them.
Reports from all parts of the country
show that the good roads movement il
going ahead ndgaining impetus. Every
mile of improved highway increases the
desire for additional improvement. and
the returns for the current year will
probably show that il stands alone in
the mileage of newly constructed and
repaired roads.
Partly as the result of good roads con.
Quoted tours in November last year and
June of this year by the Herald and At
lanta Journal, the Southeastern States
are doing remarkable work in the way
of improving existing highways and
opening upnew lines where none existed
before. Southern Good Roads in dis
cussing the work now being done shows
clearly the vast amount of money that
is being spent IN this way as well as the
benefits that follow such work.
Georgia is to the fore in road improve
ment IN the South and is beginning tc
boast very handsome total Of first-class
highways. Many of the roads in the
neighborhood of Savannah have beer
improved with cement gravel, which
is said to resemble asphalt in its finished
condition. The cost has averaged about
50, 500 a mile, and sections that have
been in use for eight or ten years are
reported to be in good condition al
present.
Gravel, mari and clay are the con-
stituents of these roads, as they are OF
good concrete. There are about thirty
miles Of that kind of roadway already
constructed. and as a result there has
been added to the ratable property OF
the city about $500, 900 for automobiles
alone.
South Georgia with good roads is be-
coming veritable paradise. The soil
is extremely fertile and the farmers are
growing rich. The other day farm
sold for s65, 600 $50 an acre. Ten years
ago it sold for $40 an acre, and twenty
five years ago at 81 an acre, and the
farmers gave away the timber TO anyone
who would clear their land.
Georgia. with the exception of few
counties, paid little attention to build
ing roads until about year ago. To-
day nearly all the counties are busy in
this respect, and they are already en-

Life A Funny Road.

Man comes into this world without
his consent and leaves it against his
will.
During his stay on earth his time is
spent in one continuous round Of con-
traries and Misunderstanding by the
balance of the species.
In his infancy he is an angel in his
boyhood he is devil in his manhood
he is everything from lizard up in
his dotage he is fool.
II he raises family he is chump
il he raises a small check he is a thief
and the law raises the devil with him.
If he is a poor man he is a poor
manager If he is rich, he is dishonest.
If he is in politics he is a CRATER II
he is out of politics you can't place him
and he is an undesirable citizen.
II he is in church he is hypocrite
il he is out of church he is a sinner and
is damned.
/ II he donates to foreign missions. he
does it for show; il he docs not. he is
stingy.
When he first came into the world
everybody wanted to kiss him ; before
he goes they all want to kick him.
If he dies young there was great
future before him; ; If he lives to a ripe
old age he is simply living to save
funeral expenses.
Life is funny road. but we all like
to travel il just the same. Miss Aiic'
