RELATION OF GOOD
ROADS TO HOME TRADE
Farmer Will Buy of Local Merchants if
He Can Reach Them.

Again and again it has been pointed
out that the growing tendency toward
buying by mail from far distant houses.
as far as the farmer is concerned, is
directly traceable to the fact that he
is growing away from the habit of
driving into town once or twice
week, particularly on Saturdays visit
ing the local stores and keeping on
friendly terms with the merchants. In
other words. the success of the mail or
der house depends largely upon its abil-
ity to create a feeling Of antagonism

The Saturday trip to town is one of
the foundation stones of merchandise
Ing in the country. Take Saturday
afternoon photograph of the main
streets in any moderate sized town.
and if it shows shortage of hitching
room and a fair mixture of automo-
biles it is safe to say that local institu-
lions are being supported.
To encourage the farmer to come to
town regularly some communities have
instituted regular series Of Saturday
fairs. Instead Of having one big cele-
bration during the season, they have
some event scheduled for each Satur-
day during the summer and fall. ad-
vertise broadcast throughout the sur
rounding territory and put on their spe-
cial sales and special displays to catch
the Saturday crowds.
If the farmer is making money he Is
apt to put some of it into good horses
or an automobile. providing the roads
are in such shape that he can realize
on that kind Of Investment But bad
roads are the farmers curse. If he
knows that he must travel four or FIVE
miles Of muck foot deep to get to
town he will stay at home and let the
R. F. D carrier take his order for cloth
ing, groceries or lumber.
OF course the benefits Of good roads
can be enjoyed only by such towns as
those where merchants are progressive.
selling good merchandise at reasonable
prices. But. given that first requisite,
nothing else will help the local mer-
chant keep his farmer customer in line
so much as frequent personal contact.
Here is where the Saturday trip to
town counts in dollars and cents In
the dealers cash drawer.
American business men are learning
that hard times can be overcome If
the right curative measures are en-
ployed, and-what is more important
that locally at least business stagna-
ton can be prevented by judicious
stimulation Of trade. This lesson is
rapidly being assimilated by the coun-
trys retail merchants and they are
coming to appreciate more fully the
bearing on their business of such ques-
tons as this of good roads. When they
finally arrive at some means Of coop
erative action on such problems and
put that cooperation into effect the
country will not longer suffer from
many present causes Of unrest.
Every merchant should study this
good roads question until he grasps it
| fully and until he sees that 1t Is his
problem.

INTEREST IN ROADS GROWS.
Farmers Now Realize the Importance
of Better Highways.


When good roads are fully apprec1at-
ed by farmers-as we believe farmers
are now beginning to appreciate their
value-farm life will be relieved OF
much of it's loneliness and educational
progress will be accelerated.
Not that farmers alone can or should
build the roads; the roads are as es-
sential to the business men In the
towns as they are to a farming com
munity. But when farmers see the
value of good roads they will take the
initiative In voting bonds, securing
state and federal aid and in giving
some of their own time to road con-
structiOn.
There are many farmers who, al
though not directly opposed to paying
the price of good roads. are nevertne-
less reluctant in voting bonds ana actu-
ally doing their own part in Dullolns
roads. These passive men Will Decolne
active and the country will be anne4eu
to the city for business reasons.

generally fruitess to argue that a good
road will enhance the value of his
property and make it more facile to
move his crop. If large part of his
cultivable area is pre-empted he will
not have so much crop to move We

pie desire improved roads and are will

they are not the law Of eminent do

WART DISEASE OF THE POTATO.

wART DISEASE OF THE POTATO.
1.-THE back masses are tubers thoroughly
rotted by the disease
lime and sulphur, SCOT and SCOT and
sulphur with equally unsatisfactory re
suits.
Better results are claimed to have
been obtained by testing different va
rieties of potatoes. A number of va
rieties have been found to be resistant
in England, but one authority main
tains that "all the best varieties of
potatoes. e.. all those most profitab BILE
to grow. are excluded as susceptible"
He also states that one variety said to
be immune is very susceptible to late
blight None of these varieties are of
commercial Importance in America.
At present crop rotation is the best
method of dealing with the disease.
Unlike late blight which is checked
some years by climatic conditions, the
wart disease when once in the soil
grows worse each year on land that is
planted to potatoes. Since the fungus
has been known to live in the soil for
eight years, potatoes should not be
planted in that soil during that period.
Fortunately. so far as known the fun
gus attacks no other crop.
A vigorous effort should be made. if
found in the United States, to eradi-
cate the trouble. All infected tubers
should be boiled or burned, and no
more potatoes should be planted on
that field for eight years. Stock should
not be allowed to run over infected
areas. and no part of any lot contain
ing diseased potatoes should be used
for seed purposes.

insect Pests That Might Have Been
Kept Out of the United States.
That the United States stands con-
stantly in danger of having some agri-
cultural pest or disease introduced
from foreign country, just as the San
Jose scale was introduced from China
about thirty years ago, that will abso-
lutely ruin certain branches of agri-
culture was one Of the significant
statements made by Edward A. Sea-
ton of Minot, N. D., the speaker who
represented the students of the college
Of agriculture at the commencement
exercises Of the University of Wiscon-
sin. The only way to ward off this
peril, said Mr.. Seaton. is to provide
strict system of quarantine which will
rigidly exclude all diseased plants
from the country and good domestic
quarantine system that will con1ne
destructive insects and plant diseases
to the localities where they are dis
covered.
"In no other country in the world
do insects and plant diseases impose
a heavier tax on farm products than
in the United States" declared Mr..
Seaton. They take fully 20 per cent
of our crops and entail loss to agri-
culture of S1.OOO,OOOOOO year.
This situation has been brought
about simply by the Introduction of
diseases and pests from foreign
lands" continued the speaker Three
fourths of our pests and diseases are
of foreign origin, and the number is
constantly increasing. The San Jose
scale, the Goblin moth, the Hessian
fly, even the common house fly, are
all Of foreign origin, and they all
could have been excluded by proper
quarantine measures.
THE United States is the only i'm
portant nation of the world which
does not provide for such quarantine.
Even Turkey will not permit the i'm
pOrtation Of American nursery stock,
and Germany will admit no American
potatoes"

GOOD ROADS IN
The MOUNTAINS
Difficult. to Obtain Right Of Way
For Highways.
BETTER LAWS ARE NEEDED,


ventions to Regulate and Modernize
the Methods For Handling This Most
Important Question.
There are some features connected
with the good roads question that
have not been presented to the pubic
and considered in the light Of facts
gained by practical experience in the
field. These apply particularly to the
construction of good roads in noun
famous districts. such as is comprised
within that beautiful and extensive
ern Appalachian region. The difficult
ties to be met in attempts to build
good highways in this region have
many peculiarities perhaps not gener-
ally understood by the dWellers in
cities and in populous farming dis
tricts where the topography is fiat or
only slightly rolling in character, says
Benjamin II. Case in the Southern Good
Roads.
Until the advent of the modern high
power touring car there was no par
ticular demand that highways through
the mountains should be constructed Of
a quality much superior to those that
had been laboriously scratched out
century or so ago by the great=grand-
fathers of the present mountain inhab-
itants.
OF late strong efforts have been put
forth by public spirited citizens to Sc
cure the building of better highways
in the mountains, but these efforts
have been confined largely to encour-
aging the mountain population to build
the roads. and right there lies the crux
of the situation we endeavor to unfold.
When a survey is undertaken to Sc
cure highway along light grades with
proper drainage facilities the first prop
osition encountered by the engineer is
an argument with the small land own
er who objects to having the road To-
Gated where nature intended it should
be because. forsooth, perhaps it cleaves
his little corn patch in twain. 1t is
