The Editor

Allegorically speaking, the editor is happy medium between soup bone and porterhouse steak. No body .ever saw rich editor, says H. J. Ram, in the Birmingham | (Ala.) News, and on the other hand no one ever encountered an editor who didn't head every sub scription with a donation of Soc and stub pen. The editor is said to belond to the fourth estate be- cause that is the only kind he ever leaves. He is also one of the most cheerful and overworked prevari- cators now passing as legal tender. He has to be.
 Whenever a girl with a face like a cream puff married a youth who never earned a dime outside the shooting gallery, the editor has to paint the bride as a radiant vision of blushing beauty and the groom as one of our rising young business men, or else disappoint an expect ant circle of delinquent subscrib- ers If the editor fails to spread two-column obituary over the death of prominent citizen who never paid outside of justice court, he is liable to be waited upon by some two-fsted relative of the deceased with an injured air and a punch in either hand.
 It has been libelously reported that the editors diet is confined mainly to sight drafts and summer squashes taken on subscription, but he appears to be as resigned to his lot as a man whose wife has gone to the seashore, and the only thing that can cause him to change his occupation is a sheriff's sale or an untimely death.
 Few editors go to the case nova days and set up their editorials in long primer and three-point lead. Modern machinery does everything but meet the payroll and pay the hired girl. The editor is the most cultured person in the community He is the only man in the com munity who can tell Barriers Burned Away" and Grants Me- moirs" and get away with it, and as result he outranks the princi- pal of the high school as litera- teur.

WHAT GOOD ROADS MEAN TO FARMERS

prefer it to any Of the hard SUR
face roads.
"The road must first be grad
ed and drained carefully. and
should be crowned about one inch
to the foot and smooth as a rag
1t can be greatly improved by
adding sand even If no grading
has been done but the expense
will be much greater. The sand
must be sharp and coarse. but
need not be as clean as is requir-
ed for concrete. II should be
brought and piled along the
shoulders of the road in dry wea-
ther when teamlng is cheaper,
though construction can not, be-
gin until the rains soften the
clay. The cheapest way is to
spread the sand 4 to 6 inches
deep over the wet clay and let
the traffic mix the materials.
Economy is the only argument
for this, and rs more sand is usu-
ally required to fill the ruts and
holes formed by the heavier teams
even this advantage is sometimes
lost. The road is almost impas-
sihle to heavy loads until the
sand and clay are thoroughly
mixed.
"A better way is to spread the
sand evenly to a width Of II or
16 feet, mixing well with plough
and harrow. A depth of 6 inches
is enough for light travel, and a
foot for heavy loads. The road
drag should be used often to
maintain the crown and fill ruts
which will form in the first few
months. If the road does not
compare favorably with gravel or
macadam as soon as the sand is
added to the clay. it should not
be considered a failure. Its con-
struction is a gradual process.
and the surface will not be at its
best in less than six months. II
it gets muddy, add more sand; if
it is too dry and dusty, more clay
is needed. All that is required
for maintenance is the addition
of little more sand to the clay
each year. and the occasional
use of n drag"

We Are Proud OF The Farmer Boys

We are not given to boasting,
but we are proud of the farmer
boys of this vicinity. They are,
with rare exceptions. a healthy.
intelligent and happy class OF
young men. We feel like taking
our hats clear or when we NEE
them on our streets and no class
is more welcome to our office.
Too many boys leave the farm
where they could have made sub
stantial and good citizens and go
to the cities; where only one in a
thousand succeeds in lifes battle.
There are also farmers who fairly
drive their boys away. There is
no excuse for this at all. The
farmer boy is entitled to his va
cation, to several relaxations or
recreations. his visit TO the city,
good books, magazines and his
home paper. To the observing
one it is plain to be seen that the
old farm is the best place in the
world for the average young man
and never fails to bring a happier
and more useful life than the
city. Young men, you who till
the soil and make your bread by
the sweat of your brow, we are
proud of you and you will always
have a friend in this paper.
Come in and see us often and
give us the news Of your friends
and neighborhood. We welcome
you always.
