To Stimulate the Good Road Work.

The Delaware Automobile Association
is formulating a plan by which tits hoped
to have the farmers do much good road
work along the same lines that have
proved successful in other localities. The
association will probably offer three
cash prizes, in each of the three counties
for the best piece OF King split log drag
work, second best and third best. Ii is
thought that if the farmers once get in
terested in this work and realize what
great benefit it will be towards good reads
thev will keep the work up. The asso-
citation will hold a meeting in Whining
ton at the Board of Trade rooms on Octo-
her 10Th, when important matters will

Der Of tine association or not, will attend.

Glso presented a minority report to the
