Below is given the analysis made DR..

The Importance of good roads are
usually under estimated. Let us cite a
parallel. Suppose the railroad leading to
city were such that they would have
to charge two or three times as much
for freight and passenger traffic, or that
the road was so poor that they could be
impossible at times of the year.
Any one would know that city could
not maintain itself under such condi-
tions, to say nothing about making a
growth; but these are the conditions
that often maintain on country roads,
and that community which is served by
such roads win never be able to develop
as it should; and the need OF good roads
is becoming more and more important
as the exchange between country and
city is becoming greater andsgfeater.

but contains rather large number of
bacteria and great deal of undecomos-
ed organic matter for sample of Ice.
Ihe amount of organic matter in this ice
water is as great as that in the iuntilter-
ed led river water. Although there
is no evidence of sewage pollution in
this ice, would pronounce it a poor
sample OF ice to be used in the home for
cooling purposes. This is not due to
the fact that it contains dangerous
bacteria, because none were found: but
because it contains so much organic
matter, which would be Objectionable
because the ice-b box would be likely to
scqure bad odors.
1t must be admitted, however, that
the ice could be used for cooling pur
poses if it is kept away from foods, and
all filth cleaned out of the ice box daily
