ROADS
IN ILLINOIS
Township System used With
Good Results

Argus Leader A. Little. of
TOlonO, Ill.,, who is in Sioux Falls
visiting r. j. Wells, IN conversation
with the editor of the Argus Leader
gave an account of what is being
done in his county in Illinois in the
matter of good roads-a subject of
increasing Importance at this time
in South Dakota. His report of
actual conditions in Illinois will give
much encouragement to the advo-
Gates Of good roads in this state who
are just now trying to build up
South Dakota sentiment for better
highways
In Illinois,, said Mr. Little, I'VE
have the township system. Each
township has three road com
missi0ners who take care not only of
the bridges but of the roads. A tax
is levied by the commissioners for
the care of the roads in their town.
ship and the work Of road improve
ment is directly under their charge
In the spring, the commissioners go
over the roads with a big road
scraper and leveler, drawn by a
hugh engine and the roads are put
in good shape, at the beginning of
the spring season. Each farmer is
furnished free with a road drag.
which costs the commissioners from
$40 to $l2 each. The farmer is al
lowed 81 per mile in winter and rs
per mile in summer to keep the
road smooth, and tie ruts filled.
He is not confined to the roads abut.
ting his own farm, but can under
take as many miles as he sees fit.
1t is not much of a task to keep a
road in condition, after it has once
been put right, and the farmers of
my township, as in other townships
of my county show much interest in
the matter. There is much compe-
titiOn among the farmers as to who
can show the finest piece of road,
and there are miles upon miles of
road in several townships in nv
county which are almost as smooth
as an asphalt pavement. The re-
suit is secured at a minimum of
cost, by the simple process of get
ting everybody interested, and by
convincing the farmers that good
roads are of practical value to them.
1t is really wonderful what can be
done by united effort and how little
it costs. When u roads are COM
pared with what they were ten
years ago and the little cost is COM
pared with the big benefits result
ing, u people would not go back
to the old days for anything"
The first thing, in the opinion of
Mr. Little is to convince the people
all the people, that they can not af-
ford to have bad roads. Then the
rest is easy. the Illinois plan is
working well. and what is being
done in Champaign county is
being done also in many counties of
that state. In South Dakota the
agitation for good raods is yet
young but another year should not
pass by without some systematic un-
dertaking along this line.

THE NATIONAL
DAIRY SHOW
At Chicago From October Goth
to November 4th

In Chicago. at the international
Amphitheatre, Union Stock Yards,
from October 26 to November 4th,
will be held the great National
Dairy Show. 1t will be the sixth
annual complete exposition of the
cow, her products, and the machi-
merry used in the dairy industry.
Also a demonstration by the United
States Government of the proper
care and feeding of dairy cattle,
and by the various CITY Health
Boards of the methods of enforcing
sanitary regulations with regard to
the handling of milk. butter and
cheese from the producer to the
consumer.
Over one thousand head of the
finest Ayrshires, Brown Swiss, Guer-
nseys, Holsteins, Jerseys and Dutch
Belted cattle will be on exhibition
This year the entries also include
some of the little Dexters and
KerrleS.
Many of the cows exhibited have
made or will be making yearly tests
of milk production. They are the
sort which return rich and sure pro-
fits to dairymen. The National is a
practical show of cows which make
a specially of producing economi-
cally large yields of milk. The visi-
tor easily and pleasurably learns the
good points of the dairy cow and
how to improve his herd. The
value of the information is far in
excess of the cost of the trip to
Chicago.
The great majority of visitors
who come to this show every year
are interested in comparing the
various breeds for the especial use
to which they are to be put. and
thus year he will be given an excep-
tional opportunity, as the breeders
will compet1 for the famous Wad-
Gington 100000 trophy, which
goes to the best five cows of any
breed in the show.
Dolly Dmple. the famous Guern-
sey which gave more than one
thousands pounds of butter in a
year, and Noble of Oaklands, the
famous Jersey bull, will be exhibit
ed.
The showing of milk, butter and
cheese is of interest to everyone,
and the dairy machinery will include
everything which is used on the
farms. in the creameries and fac
tories which turn out the finished
product of this great billion dollar
industry, which is second only to
one other, namely. corn.
In connection with the show there
will be held many conventions and
congresses, including the National
Dairy Farmers Institute, at which
will be dicussed corn. the sllo and
alfalfa. The leading authorities
will address the meeting, which will
be open to all who attend the show.
There is a growing interest in
dairying, and the reader is urged to
send his name and address to the
General Manager of the National
Dairy Show Association, 1905 Unity
Building, Chicago, for free bulletins
containing complete information re.
garding the Exposition. Rates of
fare and further railroad informa-
ton can be obtained by calling on
your local ticket agent.

BOOSTING THAT is PRACTICAL

The proposition to place high grade
cotton seed in the hands of the farm
ers of the county is one of the best
bits of boosting that has ever been
undertaken. II Is a kind of boosting
| that is worth while because 1t Is per
fectly feasible and because 1t Is dead
sure to produce desirable results
Town-builders frequently fail be
cause they tackle propositions that
are impractical or beyond their means
to accomplish, but there is nothlnS
elusive or uncertain about this un'
dertaking. 1t is movement that
is bound to bring tangible bene-
fits to both town and country and
there Is no chance for failure II
the plan is carried out
That more and better cotton Will
bring more prosperity to farmers ana
merchants. is a proposition SO clear
that no argument is needed to en-
force It, In starting this early to
the business men of the city are
avoiding the folly OF former years
when this issue was never raised
until the opening of the cotton sea
son, too late to accomplish any
thing. The planting of first class
seed and a sufficient acreage Is the
first step toward making a market
and must necessarily precede all
the rest BY applying our wits to
the problem and keeping at it we
can have the remaining steps work
ed out before the opening Of next
season.
While our retail interests may be
expected to receive the most direct
benefit from the movement, every
property owner and every man who
has any interest whatever at stake
in Chickasha will share in the busi'
ness that will result from making
the city a cotton market. Let us re-
, member that Chickasha is still chief
ly retail town and when the mer-
chants enjoy a good trade the en-
tire town prospers. If the merchants
don't prosper, the landlords and all
others must sooner or later feel the
effects of it.
The movement undertaken by the
Chamber of Commerce should there
fore receive the hearty support Of
every citizen. The plan calls for
the raising of $4,000 and a commit
tee is now taking subscriptions. They
are working for the welfare Of
Chickasha, and should be cordially
received by every one. 1t is not pleas
ant work to peddle a subscription
list; nobody relishes the job; give
the committee a cheerful greeting
and as generous a donation as YOU
can afford-Chickasha Express.
