Z Better roads are essential to
the profitable marketing of the
farmers crops.
They are essential to better
living, comfort and convenience;
essential to the reasonable pleas
ure of his family; and the roads
make the standing of every COM
munity.
The greatest objection to liv-
ing in the country is the difficult
ty of getting about" You want
to get about, you must get about,
if you properly market your crop
if you are to keep your machin-
cry in good order, it you send
your children to school, if you go
to church or attend other meet
ing in the neighborhood.
These are not little things.
They are great things.
Bad roads impose the heaviest
tax upon the farmer that he pays
and he is certain to pay it wheth-
er he knows It or not. He pays
it in the wear and tear on all his
vehicles. He pays it in loss of
time. He pays it in the addi-
tional labor imposed upon his
stock. He pays it through the
labor of self-denial of his family.
Farmers, work for better roads
as you would work to put out a
fire in your barn. Study the best
methods for building and main
tanning better roads as you go
along. The roads of commu-
nifty are largely determined by
local conditions.
Better roads are essential to
better business, better farming
and better living.
Work for better roads.
