At almost every meeting Of the coun-

tons for locating new roads must be
acted upon, and in most cases they are
approved with insufficient information
and with little consideration.
Most of the counties have more roads
than they need now, and before pass
ing upon any petition for a new one
the county board should carefully in
vestigate whether or not it would be
public utility.
The law provides that the board may
appoint three viewers or that they may
act as viewers themselves For the

should act as viewers in all cases, for

Force of n abit.

TIE Rev. Allen Fort, pastor Of the
Baptist tabernacle in Chattanooga,
asked J. B. Capeheart, railroad con-
ductor, to take up the collection one
day. 1t was Mr.. Capehearts first expe-
rience as a taker of collections in a
church.
He started down the center aisle.
There were several children in the first
pew, and each put in penny. The
people in the next pew also contributed
something each. A big, glum fellow sat
alone in the third pew. Capeheart
passed him the plate. The man shook
his head and stuck his hands deep in
his pockets.
Capeheart stopped, put up his hand
as if to jerk the bell cord and said,
We'll, you'll have to get off."-Satur-

THE WHY" or GOOD ROADS.

Fifty years ago there was an
excuse for bad roads, for cur
country was poor, but there is
not much excuse now.
A coed road always is to be de-
) sired. Ii is a source of comfort
} and convenience to every trav-
eler.
Good roads attract population
as well as good schools and
8 churches.
; Good roads improve the value
of property.
A good farm lying five miles
from market and connected by a
z bad road is of less value than an
5 equally good farm connected by
a good road.

The classification of the cat by

about the cat as a dissemination of

WHERE IS KANSAS?

Information just made public by tie
director of the office of public roads
shows that Indiana leads all the states
OF the Union in mileage of improved
roads. Most of the improved roads
of Indiana and Ohio are composed Of
gravel and were, for the most part,
built by the farmers in working out
the taxes. In many cases the gravel
is dumped ON the road without proper
spreading or rolling. Roads con
structed in this way seldom give en-
tire satisfaction. The eight leading
good-roads states, as shown by the
data compiled by the director are:
Indiana 24,s55 miles, Ohio 24,106, New
York 1871, Wisconsin 1O,167, Ken
lucky 1O,114, Illinois 1914, California
1857, Massachusetts S,46S.
The states which are now heading
in progressive road building are:
New York, Georgia, Washington, Mis-
souTi, South Carolina, Alabama, Penn
sylvania, Tennessee, New Jersey,
Florida and Maryland.
The gain in New York, according
to the director Of the office OF public
roads, is due largely to the fact that
the state has bonded itself for so mil
lion dollars, and that five millions a
year or more is being expended by
the state. in addition to an equal
amount by the counties, in building
state highways. New York is heading
all the states in actual progress at
present, and if the pace is main
tanned it will take the lead over Indi-
ana and Ohio in actual mileage in a
few years.
