FINLEY DISCUSSES PLANS OF
IMPROVING COUNTRY ROADS

good roads, he said, had been summar-
lied as follows:
l. A reduction in cost of hauling.
2. An increase in value OF land with
in It's zone of influence.
3. Increase in productive area
through tie making of uncultivated
land accessible.
4. The substitution of more profit
able crops for the less profitable crops.
5. The ability of the producer to
market his products at time when
prices are most favorable instead of
mark citing the products when the roads
permit
"The fundamental suggestion I have
to make" he said in conclusion, "is
that he should apply the principles Of
conservation to road building policies.
We should conserve our energies and
our financial resources and adopt such
policies as will eliminate waste of

Rain spread gloom over the opening
of the Alabama State Fair yesterday,
hut under the clouds every finishing touch
to the great exposition was applied. and
a few rays Of sunshine will transform
the whole into the veritable carnival OF
pleasure and center of education and in
struction which has been prepared.
If Yesterday Col. Emmet O'Neal found
cause to name it the best fair in the
south's history, and to point with pride
to the varied exhibits, of half dozen
counties, today the throngs will marvel
at the displays of more than a dozen
counties, products of the soil and the
work bench
If Yesterday the few who braved the
weather found surprise in witnessing the
rows Of swine and cattle exhibits, today
with the addition of several carloads
which arrived over night, they will be
more than ever delighted.
If the womans department was yester-
day the very embodiment Of womaniy
art and genius, today it is as home,
twice prepared for distinguished guest.
IT is the consensus of opinion of all
those who went through the exhibit build
ings yesterday that this years fair puts
all others in the shade, both IN the
number and quality Of exhibits, and the
great variety of products.
The first judging in the live stock
department will be done today, ribbons

Class B-Beef cattle. Red Polled.,
The main exhibit hall is a bower of
beauty. The second floor, which is the
work of Mrs. j. b. Reid and hundreds
of other ladies', cannot be described in
words. The first floor, covered entirely
with agricultural exhibits, is the pride
of the men and women who are interested

The world owes much to the dissent

so many specimens Of healthy forms of

reason for 1t. And the answer will bo
found in the mode of living, Including

The Latter-day Saints were taught
the necessity Of temperance In eating
and drinking. as early as 1888, when
they were warned against partaking of
strong drinks. tobacco. and hot drinks,
and to eat the flesh of beasts and of

IN THE CAUSE OF PEACE.

Some tImc ago Secretary of State
Knox. In circular to the Powers pro-
posed that the International Prize
court should be invested with tho
Jurisdictions and functions of a Court
of Arbitral justice. Were this PROPOSE
ton to be adopted. the world would
have permanent international judi-
cial body to settle questions of con-
troversy In times of peace as well as
war.
The Court of Aribitral Justice. also
called tho Judicial Arbitration Court
Is an Institution that Is not generally
known. At tho suggestion of Prof
James Brown Scott, technical dele
gate to the second Hague congress.
1907, that body adopted an agreement
containing 80 articles. The first of
these reads:
with view to promoting the cause
OF arbitration. the contracting DOW
ers agree to constitute, without alter
ing the status OF the Permanent Court
of Arbitration, a Judicial Arbitration

tary of the American Peace society

Peace. points out some of the Difficult,
