WE'D. DEC, %. 1912

Gentlemen of the court, pro-
gressive citizens of Adair, why
should we further and longer
hold the best interests of this
county down, by pandering to
fogyism born of stingy parents.
and nourished by misery meth
DDS? Why fear a progressive
step when the best interest of all
will be advanced? Of a certain
ty we can not see a reason to
justify further delay in the build
ing of first class rock roads.
Many will oppose any move that
means expense regardless of the
great receipts sure to follow.
Many are conStitutionally op-
posed to advancement in any av-
enue of life. Many believe a
dollar spent is a dollar lost. Too
many are so stingy and penuri-
Gus and shortsighted to breathe
easy. They pride in hording up
little money or the accumula-
An. of property. They rejoice
in misetly economy and it is i'm
possible to change their minds.
No appeals will reach them, no
emergency can stir their souls.
They are content and happy
when unmolested by public duty
or free from the crying necessi-
ties of public advancement.
Fortunately they are in the mi
nority but unfortunately their
voices are so vociferous as to
control the action of the major
ity. This should not longer eX-
list. Public spirited citizens,
those who believe in changing
from bad to good, from expen-
sive roads to those of profit and
pleasure, ought to awake to our
real situation and move forward
regardless of grumbles and crit
icisms from the tories of prog
ress. Let the bowler howl, the
miser protest and the enemies of
good roads beat the air but start
the work of building good, sub
stantial roads, If all who be-
lieve in good roads and who have
an intelligent estimate of their
worth, had an opportunity tc
vote for building by bonding the
county, it seems to me that
heavy majority would result.
The News favors the trial.
What think you? Get out in the
open on this proposition. Here
is the space.

What the Cow Has Done

At a meeting Of farmers held
recently at Knoxville, a member
paid the following tribute to the
milk and butter producer:
The hen has been lauded time
and again, but who has spoken
real praise Of the cow
OF all the animal friends Of man
she is the greatest. To her we owe
thessmost. Ii we were to take from
the dinner table what she has placed
there, we would take the cup Of
milk at baby's chair. We would
take the cream, the cheese, the
butter. the custard pie, the cream
buiscuit, the steak, the smoking
roast beef, and leave you to make
a meal Oh potatoes, beets, pickles
and toothpic1s. There is not a
thing from her nose to her tail but
what is utilized for the use Of man.
We use her horns to comb our hair,
her skin upon our feet, her hair
keeps the plaster upon the wall,
her hoof makes glue. her tail makes
soup, her bones are ground up to
fertilize our soil. Her blood is
used to whiten sugar and her
paunch makes the finest kind Of
white cardboard and false teeth.
No other animal works both day
and night for man, for she gathers
her food in daytime, and when we
are asleep at night she brings it
back and converts it into all the
things named. It was her sons
that turned The first sod in the set
tiers clearings. 1t was her sons
that drew the prairie schooner for
the sturdy pioneers who fought
their way inch BY inch through
the wilderness. Who cannot say
that much Of what we are, we owe
to this noble animal, the cow
Treat her well, for she is a queen.
