There are many girls who without he
ing at all good looking always appear
neat and smart.
They may only have a small dress al
lowance. but with it are able to appear
more attractive than girls who with
twice their amount of money often look
overdressed or dowdy.
What Is the secret Of this?
Surely 1t Is due TO the neat girls

with care and makes point OF her ap-
pearance being neat and tidy. She
keeps her wardrobe orderly and has n
place for everything; her ribbons.

Roads,.

The following in the midst of in
spring progress is worthy of note.
Through the agitation for good roads,
through the hearty cooperation and
able efforts of our road commission
ers, and through ID. II. Winslows eff
cient work and fine enthusiasm Ben
nington County has secured over $15,-
200 for the Improvement of roads
which it would not have had without
this alignment with the good roads
movement Nearly half of this
amount was raised by special town
meetings, personal gifts, and village
improvement funds, and a little more
than half was given by the State du-
plicating these amounts and for spec
ial efficiency. If this enthusiasm
continues to increase Bennington
County will have roads that will ma
terially increase economic pros
perity. The two following situations
illustrate the point in question: H.
o. Coleman in Winhall, hauls pota-
toes to South Londonderry Depot,
distance of eight miles at cost
of seven cents a bushel. A bushel in
Vermont is 60 pounds. 1t therefore
costs IL 2-S cents a hundred or 1898
a ton for transporting the crop from
South Londonderry to Brattleboro. a
distance of about thirty miles. He
pays eleven cents a hundred or 1920
ton. The cost of transportation is
therefore q 2-3 per cent of the sell.
ing price of potatoes, the market
price being so cents. II is obvious
that Mr.. Coleman cannot affect the
market price of potatoes, nor can he
reduce the railroad rate, but the res
idents OF Winhall can reduce the cost
of transportation over the country
road to the depot II costs approx
mately 29 cents per bushel to trans
port potatoes over these roads while
in France it costs about cents. II
Mr.. Coleman could reduce the cost
one-half 1t would net him $3.50 per
acre on his potatoes this year based
on an average yield Of $50 bushels to
the acre. Mr.. Coleman has been
known to raise as much as 300 bush.

In addition they maintain four teams
of their own whose cost is not con-
sidered. The cost of imprtving the
road from East Arlington to Airing.
ton is estimated at about $1,000. With
an improved road an auto truck could
handle the same products at a cost
of not over $1,000 against $4,000 now
paid out of team hire. In six months

villages would pay the Hale Chair
