Chattanooga News Says.

We of this age think it is su-
perior to any other, but when
we compare the roads of ancient
Rome, of Carthage and Peru,
with those of this time, we may
not be SO certain of our fancied
superiority. The Romans exhlb-
tied a wonderful appreciation OF
good roads. Rome made itself a
world-power, and it's citizenship
respected at home and abroad,
because it had lines of communi-
cation over good roads. In all,
twenty-nine good roads, with a
width Of sixteen feet and a
length of So, 964 miles, centered
at Rome.

TAFT SCORES AMERICAN
JUSTICE.

Prof. VIM. H. Taft, the ex-
president, in a recent address
de clared that our system of JUS
tice is so administered that it is
much easier on the rich than on
the poor. This is not because the
laws are different but because
the rich man can afford to appeal
his case, and appeal it and thus
secure delays, and many times
finally be let off entirely.
He added: 'The manner that
we have of prosecuting criminal
cases is a disgrace. The number
of real criminals that get away
in this country, not only without
convictionbut even without being
brought to trial, is something
of which we can truly be much
ashamed" ;"

SYSTEM In ROAD
BUILDING

The Ohio Good Roads Feder-
alton has placed itself on record
as favoring "a comprehensive and
efficient plan of administration
that will improve, maintain and
unity as one complete system the
public thorfares of the country
to state highway system and a
township highway system, each
distinct unit, yet all integral
factors of a complete system of
good roads everywhere.
The federation is on the right
track. Road improvement ought
to be systematic. The chief de-
feet in the building and mainten-
ance of highways in this country
is the lack of system. There are
many great national through
fares being projected at the
present time, and some of them
will be built. There should be
cooperation among the various
states to the end that these
throughfares may be properly
linked together, and thus made
integral factors of a complete
system. F"
Some of the states have no
highway commissions or good
roads departments of any char
acter. Never the less a few of
these states, through county in
itiative or township enterprise,
are making good progress in road
building. There should be state
supervision, however, in order
to get the best possible results.
Without this the improvements
are not likely to be systematic or
to be carried out with any great
degree of uniformity, or with
any regard for their relation to
other improvements. Every good
road should be link in the chain
of good roads which ultimately
should extend to every section OF
the commonwealth.
1t is because of an utter lack
of system that many counties are
without creditable highways.
The money of the taxpayers is
expended to poor advantage.
It is scattered about here and

ALFALFA HAY IS
BEST ROUCHACE

The South Dakota Experiment
Station has been making some
experiments with various sub
tances as roughage when fatten-
ing lambs, and finds alfalfa hay
the best of all. The following is
a summary of the results:
l. Corn siIage as a sole ration
for lambs is not the best of feeds.
The lambs were thrifty during
the feeding period but would not
eat enough silage to fatten.
Only five of the ten had made a
gain during the siXty-seven day
fvOufrrs, p~-:~~l.-rl---
these gains does not amount to
much as the average gains made
by other lambs that received
other feeds. The total loss of
the ten head was nine pounds.
2. White sweet clover is an
excellent roughage, when fed
with a grain ration, for fatten-
ing lambs. The gains made
rank next and close to gains
made by lambs fed alfalfa hay
as a roughage.
8. Pea hay is a good roughage
with grain for fattening lambs.
AS a lot of the lambs made very
uniform gain, ranking next to
those that received sweet clover
hay for roughage.
A. The net results from the
shredded corn fodder lot were
the poorest of all roughage tried
with a grain ration. The gain
of the lambs were not uniform,
ranging from six to thirty-three
pounds per head in sixty-seven
days. Mother was the average
gain as large as that received
from the lambs that were get
ting prairie hay with the same
kind of grain ration. However,
this fodder has a value for fat
tenino with grain. but is not
equal to prairie hay, ton for ton:
S. with the several hundred
head of lambs fattened at this
station during the past eleven
years, the largest gains have
been made with those that re-
ceived alfalfa nay with grain
mixture. The results reported
show that the lot fed alfalfa as
a roughage with grain made an
average daily gain of fifty-slx
hundredths of a pound during
the sixty-one day feeding period.
In this experiment during a SIX
ty-seven day feeding period, an
average daily gain of fifty-six
hundredths of pound was Sc
cured. With ordinary feeding,
gains from one-quarter to one
third of a pound was considered
good.
Every lamb in all of the lots re-
ceiving alfalfa made compara-
lively large gains. The grain
ration cosnisted of oats and she'll
ed corn mixed half and half by
weight. While with other lots
some of the lambs did not make
much more than one-half a
much gain under the same con-
ditions. This plan puts a high
geeding value on alfalfa hay as
a roughage for lambs.

feels that real estate values have
reached the top all along the coast

nothing here to give my time and
attention to when compared to oppor~

DR.. Mayo has reached this conclu'
sion after visiting many states in

them. He says the lands here are as
productive as they are anywhere and
are selling much cheaper.
