The lack of Good Roads hangs like
a sceptrdl cloud ever in the pathway
to material prosperity for the rural
districts of Greene. Back out on her
verdant hills dwells some Of the
choicest people OF the earth who are
being robbed Of their heritage in the
marts of this country by the lack of
such-avenues to convey their product
over. The sentiment for Good Roads
in this county is gro Fing so fast
that nothing can stay its spn adj.

GOVERNMENT WILL
PRINT IT'S OWN MONEY

Washington. June 2s.-After July the
bureau of engraving and printing will
turn Que the paper currency of the gov
ernment complete instead of merely print
ing it and leaving TO another branch of
the department the work of imprinting the
numbers and seals and cutting the big
sheets up into notes The saving of labor
by the change is estimated to be S13S,oc0
per annum. Adding machines in auditing
postmasters money accounts have been
introduced into the auditors office for the
postof1ice department. a branch of the
treasury department. Under the system
in vogue for a number of years nine
months were required to make final set
tiement of such accounts. By using the
machines the time of the audit will be
reduced to four months.
The change involves a total retrench-
ment of approximately $4,000 per an
mum.
