grown up together from childhood but
the girls father was opposed TO mar

sent her 10 a convent in New York to
separate them after the families re-

When the girl was permitted to re-

that the separation had not weakened

The father of the girl finally told young
Menocal that if his daughter married
him he would disown her and in de-

through the head. The bullet inflicted
a wound which ruined the sight of his

Trenton. y. j., Nov. 19.-Upon the

BAD ROADS A COST TO
THE FARMERS.

How states and counties are
putting money into the pockets
of the farmers by investing in
the improvement of public roads
is shown by a statement just iss-
ued by the Office of Public Roads
in the Department of Agricult-
ure. Definite cases are cited in
support Of the argument that
where bad roads prevail farmers
are forced to move their crops
not when the market price is fav-
orable, but when the roads are
favorable.
Two farmers living in seperate
counties but at an equal distance
from the cotton market, learned
by telephone that cotton had ad-
vanced in price $1.00 per bale.
The farmer living on a bad road
responded by hauling one bale of
cotton, which was all he could
get oyer the unimproved road,
while the other farmer was able
to haul four bales, owing to fav-
orable road conditions. The rise
in price gained a profit of $4.00
to one man, and $1.00 to his
neighbor.
1t is common for the farmer to
find that he can not haul his pro
duce to market when prices are
highest, because the roads are
impossible. When the roads be-
come passable, the time for mar
ket has largely passed and pro-
duce is compelled to move in
masses, which frequently gluts
the market and breaks the prices.
Excessive fluctuations in mar
ket prices are seldom due to over
production. They frequently
take place in regions where the
local production does not equal
the annual consumption. There
are counties rich in agricultural
possibilities, burdened with bad
roads, where the annual income
shipments of food-stuffs exceed
the outgoing shipments in the
ratio Of four to one. Many such
counties with improved roads
could not only become self-sup-
porting but could ship products
to other markets.
A farmer living a few miles
from a city Of 5000 inhabitants
had 100 bushels of Irish poatoes
which he intended to market |
during the winter. Owing to
bad roads he was unable to haul
the potatoes at all, and they rot
ted in the cellar. Nevertheless
the price of potatoes in the home
market went as high as S1.40 per
bushel in the meantime. A mer-
chant'f Of that city stated thatl
during The winter as many as 10
carloads of farm produce, ,1includ-1
ng wheat, potatoes, and Sotherl
were daily SHIPPED in,
when at the same time farmers
n the immediate neighborhood
