NEWSPAPER ERRORS.

The editor of an exchange does more copies of his papers in which they have found mistakes. If they find a perfect copy, however. he offers a big price for it. Same with us, says the editor of the Crys- tai Falls fMich) Drill. If the fool critic who hunts for mistakes in the paper would find them all he would be kept busy. We will be pleased to buy copies of any paper which can be proven entirely free from errors, either geographically or in statement of fact. We will be pleased to find a merchant who never made mistake in putting up an order; a lawyer who never lost a case through his own errors, a doctor who never wrongly diagnos- ed a case, druggist who never made a mistake, postoffice off cial who never put mail into the wlcng box, woman who never forgot to put in salt while cooking or put the tea in the teapot before putting in the water Bring on some of your mistakeless paragons who find it 50 easy to eriticise the papers and we'll give them the chance of their lives to find out whether they are really human Publishers Auxiliary.

SOME FACTS ON GOOD ROADS.

To show the value of having good roads all the year round it is quoted from the government re- ports that i'll the state of Texas alone $1,590,o ,o00 too much was paid for the country transportation of the cotton crop, $s0o .000 on the wheat crop, and S10.000, ,000 on the corn crop, making total loss in one year in one state of $12,300,- 900 on account of poor roads.
 The greatest value of good roads will be to the farmers who have not become interested yet said Mir. B. F Yoakum recently in one of his speeches upon the subject They need to be shown that the poorest roads are the most expensive roads. They must De shown that their broken wagons, broken harness and blacksmith bills cost them more than the cost Of having good roads They have not been shown that a four dollar day team can do twice the work oyer good roads than they can do eYer. poor roads-whieh makes that team worth wice as much-eight dollars day .
 "The man with good road with dis anee against. him. can make his trips quicker and carry from two to three tines as much on his wa gon And more important he can depend upon his road and bridge every day in the year; while the man who en ounters sWol en streams and impossible roads often loses his best market and his products decay on his hands
 If a railroad encounters a high grade over a bill. which means ex- cessive use of coal, slow trains and light loads. the railroad cuts down the heavy grades 10 save coal bills, 10 move freight faster and 10 car ry bigger train 1oa E In the same way when farmers will cut down the grades of their roads and get s4iAi4N' n u4 ttls s3iitB Itat8f luz SOfiA drainage, they can haul far big ger leads in far les time, they can save on blacksmith bills and make one team do the work that requiF- ed two before
