PA1cN fosf NOT rArA1

Evidntly under the inspiration Of
the express companies, the public were
educated to believe that a parcel post
spelled bankruptcy to the country
merchant. The trade papers preached
it for years; to the country dealer it
was = constant nightmare and even
people who favored the idea did SO
with some pangs of sympathy for the
poor dealer who was to be put out Of
business by the big mail order houses
in the large cities. The parcel post
has been in operation some eight
months, and can you name one solitary
country dealer who has failed in bust
ness during that time that can honest
ly say the parcel post did ity
We read of cooked meats and cake,
that mother actually made, going by
post to her boy in the city. of aspara-
gus and crisp radishes from friend to
friend; of human ashes and all sorts
of curious and unusual things finding
their destination through the medium
of parcel post, but how many articles
which the country merchant has in
stock on his shelves are ordered from
the city to come by parcel posts
AS matter of fact, one of the
largest mail order houses in tine world
makes practically no effort to adver-
tise its goods in towns which have a
really up-to-date department store, and
ships the great bulk of its sales by
freight as when there was no parcel
post. The new service was needed,
and is proving of great service to the
people: but for the most part the busi-
ness it does is really created business.
including articles which are now sen.
because the rate permits it, and whica
were seldom shipped under express
rates. 1t did not occur to people to
pay % or 35 cents express on articles
which the recipient could buy in his
own town for or 10 cents. but when
the ten-cent article can be mailed for
half its cost, the thing becomes prac
ticable. But as for putting the coun-
try dealer out of business, that was
simply the dream of the express com.

With the expenditure Of large SUN.
Of money in various parts Of the stat@
in the building Of good rsads, ths Ssss
eioa of the nsinteaaAes Of thsss soads
becomes one Of aach importance. II
il . recognized fact that the initial
cost of = good road is snau - com.
pared with the meaies which are usual
ly spent in the upkeep Of the highway
This is due, says bulletin just issued
by the Colorado Good Roads associs.
tion, to the lack Of care given to the
msintensnce of the highways.
In writing to the president of the
good roads association in regard t.
this, Lawrence C. Phipps of Denver
says:
MY experience and observation
have convinced me that it is of vital
Importance to now have the county
commissioners for each county organ
ize regular repair gangs, who will work
upon the public roads every work day
in the year.
''Unless repairs are kept up con-
stantly, the original investment in the
building of road is largely wasted,
and We have all seen many instances )
of this truth in our own state.'
The increasing good road building in
this state is bringing to the attention
of those interested in road building the
need of some plan in Colorado which
will insure the proper maintenance o.
the highways. This is . matter which
has been frequently discussed at good
roads conventions, and also by the
executive committee of the Colorado
Good Roads association, and it il likely
that some definite plan will soon be
agreed upon between the highway com
mission and the good roads workers Of
the state whereby this question of road
care and maintenance will be given
more attention in each county.
