GOOD ROAD TALK

Money spent for good roads is as
good an investment for improving
the farm as is money put into stock
sheds. grain cribs, fences, seeds or
anything else that makes the farm
pay.
St. Landry clarion. (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, 1910-08-20

A farmer living on d good road is
a free man. He is not dependent On

sell his stock and grain and fruit At
the best market prices. The rail-
roads have 10 serve the man who can

The movement of SO many thoR-
sands of young people from the farm
to the city is largely caused BY bad
roads which isolate their homes and
render the world about them iaac-
cessibe The addition to the urban
populabion lessons the prodaoing
force Of the farm and at the same
time creates a greater demand for
farm products. This means a aigher
cost of living and an undesirable

Halley's Comet Now
 Visible to Naked Eye

Halley's comet will be at its best from May 18th to May 27th, during which period 1t will be plainly visible in the evening.
 The tail, stretching out like a great hnger-a smooth band of light-should span about one sixth of the entire sky, or should be equal in length to about thir- ty times the width of the full
 moon. It is fifteen million miles in length.
 The main constituent of the tail of the comet is cyanogen, though acetylene IS also present. Cyanogen is drug fatal to life; but if the earth does as expected pass through the tail, there will be no danger to life, as the cy- anogen will be so thin as to be harmless, and, in fact, unnoticed.

For the first time since the ap. pointment of E. R Pirtle, oi Douglas, the Arizona Fair Com. mission met last week in Phoe- nix, with Chairman Hugh Camp bell, Treasurer A. l.. Moore and Mir. Pirtle all present, to discuss the features of the Territorial Fair, November 7 to 12.
 The board was in session for two days, and will probably not meet again until after the sum- mer season.
 Approximately $25,OOO- will be given by the fair commission for the races during fair week. The two Copper stakes, which were such an attractive feature of the last fair, will both be continued.
 Thursday has been set aside as automobile day. and $2, 800 will be given in purses and prizes. Last year the total was but $1 ,790. The Los Angeles Phoe- nix road race will end in Phoenix on Monday, the first day Of the fair.

SYSTEM TO OPEN ITS NEW
 CUTOFF
May 18th Set For Beginning Service on Arizona &
 California

General Manager Drake and Passenger Agent Hastings, of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoe- nix Railway Company, have gone to Los Angeles, there to make final arrangements for starting service over the Arizona & California railroad about May Is. by which time the iiHe will have been completed through to Cadiz. A through tram will be run between Phoenix and Los Angeles, with close connections at Wickenburg for Prescott. which will no longer go through Ash Fork for it's western busi- ness. From Prescott to Los An geles by the present route is 545 miles. By way of Wickenburg and Parker this will cut off 5O7 miles. It is probable that the projected through fast train will not be started before June 1, when pew equipment will prob- ably have been received. Then it is proposed to cut the running time from Phoenix and Prescott to Los Angeles to fourteen and possibly sixteen hours.
 While the new road west of Parker runs through desert land, it is a land rich in natural resources. About thirty-6ve miles west of Parker is a great bed of low grade hitter. There is a deposit of epsom salts more than half pure. Salt IS found in abundance, both in beds, as at Salton, and in crystalized rock form. Carbonate of soda and borax beds have already been located
 One item of especial interest to oil experts is that in several of the gulches near the railroad have been found chunks of pure parafn, indicating the presence of petroleum of Illuminating value, similar to that of the Pennsylvania fields. Besides all these extraordinary products, the hills of Eastern Riverside county have for years been noted for rich gold and copper mines. which now may be worked with convenience and cheaper trans portation facilities.
 More than 5000 men are now employed in the double-tracking of the Santa Fe between Ash Fork and Winslow, and 1t is es timated that this force will have work for about a year. One of the hardest sections will be up the grade east of Ash Fork, where two camps have already been established.

DEWEY SUCCUMBS TO INJURIES AFTER A
 BRAVE FIGHT
Body of Deceased Shipped To Relatives In Canada
 By the B. of R. T.

Fred. Dewey, a brakeman in the local yards, met with an ac- cident Sunday night, which re- suited in his death Wednesday afternoon at the Santa Fe hos pital in Albuquerque.
 His left arm and shoulder were terribly mangled and he was injured about the head; he also sustained other lesser injuries by falling under a string of cars while engaged in switching.
 The injured man was placed on the train Monday morning and sent to Albuquerque and placed in the company's hospital.
 When Gallup was reached, Dr. F E. Coudert, railroad physi- clan of that city, was called. He Saw at once that Dewey was badly injured, and accompanied the injured man to Albuquerque. Dr. w. Colbert, surgeon of the Santa Fe hospital, met the train at Albuquerque, and Dewey was placed in an ambulance and con- veyed to the hospital. He was very weak from the loss of blood and much difficulty was expert enced in removing him from the train to the ambulance without starting d hemorrhage.
 The pitiful lfeatune the case is that Dewey made the trip from here to Gallup without medical attendance. Dr. Coudert, ot Gal lup. when he found that Dewey had been without the attention which the case seemed to war rant, worked with him nearly all the way into Albuquerque, and placed proper bandages on most of the wounds, checking tile flow of blood and relieving the suf- ferer as much asposslble. Dewey remained conscious from almost the time he was injured until h, reached the hospital.
 The Albuquerque Tribune Citi- zen of Thursday gives the follow ing account of Dewey's brave struggle:
 Fred. Dewey, the brakeman in jured Monday at Winslow, died last night. According to Dr. Colbert, it was only the splendid nerve and determination of the man that he lived SD long. He laughed and talked with the at tenlants until within few min utes of his death, though he was sure he could not live. He asked for the services of d priest duri g the afternoon, and Father Man dalari administered the rites of the church to him.
 Dewey's death followed shortly after amputation of his left arm near the shoulder had been made. This was rendered necessary by the setting in of modification, and during the operation he was kept under the influence of an anaesthetic, which was adminis- tered through spinal injection He was conscious all the time, but felt no pain.
 Dewey left a wife and child in Canada, and his body will be sent there for interment, in ac- cordance with a telegraphic re quest from his wife.
 It is said that the Order of Trainmen will investigate Dew ey's death, as he was without any medical attendance while on the trip from Winslow to Gallup.
