held very interesting meeting, when 1
the good roads subject was discussed |
very ably by Francis SOper, of Fruitland /
Grange, and several members of Farm /

excellent accounts of his experiences in |
road building in other counties and States,
that Kent county is so far be-
mind that she is a disgrace to the State,
and especially the State road from Fred
erica to within 3 mile Of our State capi-
tai, and the county roads leading to the
same. Why don't our voters wake up
and compel the Levy Court do US justice,
necessary materials and ma
,hlnery and give US good roads? Good
'Oads is what Farmers Grange stands
or. Have we been treated fair? Any
me who thinks we have let them ride
rom Frederica to Dover, or try to haul
'ver that road We think they will BET
n sympathy with the good road move
nent. When the grange was preparing
o close, rap at the door was heard,
nd when our dOOrkeeper answered the

hroats of our worthy speakers. As the
tress of busy season is about over it
7as decided that the grange meet every s
aturday evening at O'Clock. Next
evening the unwritten work
7ill be demonstrated, and all members
Tho desire to learn should be present.
