HOW GOOD ROADS
INCREASE VALUES
Farm Lands Bring Much Great
or Prices.
IMMIGRATION ATTRACTED.

Likewise Good Roads Directly In
crease the Demand For Rural Prop
erty, and Value Is Ruled by Relation
OF Demand and Supply.
The direct effect that changing bad
roads into good roads has upon land
value and the general economic well
rare OF community is shown in some
concrete illustrations gathered by the
United States department of agricul-
ture.
The department has just issued
statement on the subject, based upon
mass of information gathered by the
Office of public roads, which is making
a special study Of the economic effect
OF road Improvement In the country
According to data gathered, where good
roads replace bad ones the values of
farm lands bordering on the roads in
crease to such an extent that the cost
OF road improvement Is equalized, if
not exceeded. The general land val
ues as well as farm values show mark
ed advances with the improvement of
roads.
Among the illustrations cited by the
department are the following:
In Lee county, Va, farmer owned
100 acres between Ben Hur and Jones'
vile, which he offered to sell for 81 300.
In 1908 this road was improved, and,
although the farmer fought the i'm
provement, he has since refused So, 900
for his farm.
In Jackson county, Ala, the people
voted bond issue of $25OOOO for road
Improvement and improved "a per cent
of the roads. The census of 1900 gives
the value of all farm lands In Jackson
county at $3.50 per acre The census
of 1910 places the value Of all farm
lands In Jackson county at 1919 per
acre, and the selling price is now from
SIS to $50 per acre.
As the roads in no way affect soil
fertility or quality of the farm, ad-
vances are due essentially to the de-
crease in the cost of hauling produce
to market or shipping point. Farms
are now regarded as plants for the
business of farming, and any reduc-
ton in their profits through unneces-
sarily heavy costs for hauling on bad
roads naturally reduces their capital
izatiOn into values
The automobile also has begun to be
an important factor in increasing rural
values where good roads are intro
! duced.
immigration is particularly marked
where road conditions are favorable
In fact the figures of the department
seem to indicate that good roads indi-
rectly increase the demand for rural
property, and the price of farm land.
like that of any commodity, is ruled by
the relations between demand and sup
ply.

MAJOR FIXES "ROAD DAYS."
Governor Expects Every AbIeboded
Man to Work AUG. 20 and Fl.


Through proclamation Governor
Major of Missouri set apart Aug. 20
and 81 as public holidays to be known
as good roads days"
He supplemented the proclamation
with request that every ablebodied
man in the rural districts and smaller
cities of the state devote those days to
work on the public highways. The
proclamation asks for general sus-
pension of business. The women of
the state are asked to supply the vol
unteer workmen with food and encour-
age them with their presence and good
cheer. The commercial clubs, civic OF
ganizations and the press are asked
to favor the movement and do every
thing possible to make the two days
as fruitful of results as possible.

proved Roads Than Any Other.
Rhode Island may have fewer square
miles than any of her sister states;
but, according to the Good Roads Year
Book, she is the only state in the In
ion whose improved roads amount to
half of her total roads. Delaware her
closest rival for smallness, has only
per cent of her roads improved Mas
sachusetts presses her tiny neighbor in
this respect by making showing of
40 per cent of her roads improved.
Naturally other states try to discount
this primacy of Rhode Island. An In
diana journal accounts for it on the
ground that the state is in reality
nothing but Providence and Newport
and their suburbs.
1t then disposes Of Massachusetts by
the remark that, except for some hills
through which only state roads run.
that commonwealth is practically one
big town. This process of elimination
leaves Indiana at. the top in the per-
centage of improved roads. But the
Hoosier State already has honor enough
In the fact that it possesses more miles
of improved roads than any other state.
although it's $4,000 miles exceed Ohio's
supply Of improved highways by only
few hundred miles. These two states
are far ahead of the rest. Next TO
them come New York. with $1,000
miles; Washington, with 1900; Wis
consin and Kentucky, with 10000 each.

level of the sea, and the workmen were
compelled to dig through snow. soil
and rock in order to make it passabe.
In certain sections of the United

they are poor and impossible. espe-
cially in severe weather.
The roads in the mountains of North
Carolina are perhaps the poorest. but
are being improved. This section is
sparsely populated. and the inhabitants
are no longer willing to put up with
the poor roads and live shut up in the
great mountains. frequently having
every approach to the nearest town cut

 When the Horne Wild Animal Show first opened at the park, Jack was one of the fiercest animals in capti- witty. For hours at a time he would walk back and forth within the small confines of his cage, but since the ladies have taken to feeding Jack bon-bons and other sweet-meats, they have practically changed his entire disposition.
 Jack is only one of innumerabie interesting and instructive features or the Wild Animal Show. It is a pleas ure that so worthy is this attraction considered that visitors by the hun dreds are taking the Wilmington Avenue car and patfonizing this big amusement feature where one is ad- mitted to the Gator Farm and its at fractions, the Wild Animal Show, to say nothing of the Marine Museum, the three attractions being offered for one admission.

THE LYRIC THEATRE.

If there are any persons who don't appreciate the two new acts or the T.yrie's bill this afternoon and even ing, it will be for the reason they are either deaf or dumb or both, or have been relegated to the list or living dead ones," for the manage ment has certainly booked two win ners. if such thing is possible. To begin with there is the Phillips Gull lenbine Trio as clever a three" as ever eraced any vaudeville stage. They are offering one of yaudeville's 5 greatest laugh producers, "A Bell Boy For a Day" an act that is re- plete with songs dances and excel lent comedy and feature that has headlined all of the big bills in the largest vaudeville theaters in the east This is a feature no one makes mis- take in backing.
 On the same bill will be Carter Taylor and company. who extend to- day to the patrons of the Lyric thea tre a most cordial invitation to come with them, laugh and grow fat and take life easy at Camp Rest Ton may have heard of other rest places and rest cures in your time, but there are none that has anything on the feature that this attraction offers. It will be impossible to go away from the Lyric theatre the last three days of the week with a grouch, for this bill will make a wooden Indian laugh. The pictures will also be new, three excellent reels having been received

ROYAL THEATER.

There will be a King Baggot two reel special from the Imp. company shown at the Royal today, one of the biggest and best motion picture treats of the season.
 "Dr. Jekyl and Mir. Hyde,' is the title of the two reel special. King Baggott was besieged by his many admirers to pose this great picture story, and in it he has created one of his masterpieces. Baggot is an ideal Jekyl and Hyde and the sup porting company brings in all the Imp. stars. You could not miss this one.
 "Epph's Dream" is a Powers com edy which will drive away all serious thoughts of the double life of Jekyl and Hyde It is a joy film all the way and is a splendid accompaniment to the two reel drama.
 On Saturday the Royal will show the Hot Springs views taken by the Gaumont company in connection with the regular Weekly" These views were taken by a representative ot the Gaumont company. They were originally announced for Thursday, but on account of delay they will be shown on Saturday without fail. The reel is now here and there is no further doubt about it.

AT THE PRINCESS.

lhe character of acts which have heaaiined the Princess bills during the season have been varied, but this IS the first time that juggler has come to the theater to take preced., ence over all other acts on a bill of real magnifcence and spIendor.
 Paul Spadoni, of European, Aus tralian, North and South American idihe' Is the juggler in question. Jug ghng is seen nightly at vaudeville theatres throughout the country. but there is only one Spadoni Each and every one of his feats border on the lerilous, hazardous, grasping sort. the kind that you never witnessed before and performed in manner that leads you 10 forget you are witnessing a juggling act but rather an act of spectacular novelty, or real wonder bordering on the mysterious. To des- cribe Spadoni's act would be impos- slble. Suffice to say that this ste.l- Ing entertainer will be the big fea- ture.
 Ruth Roche-Francis Players have as clever a mixture of musical com edy as one would care to hear and "N~' HN fVhtH Di fiiSH LIlE. IS the title of the musical skit. Comedy and dancing predominate, but there is some clever vocal and instrumental music combined with this big feature act.
 Dean and Stevens, blaekface team, one of the best in vaudeville, win have a prominent place on the bill The Princess has been getting some great blackface acts recently and this one is just as good as any that has been offered
 Grace and Ed. Parks, Smart Sing. CTS and dancers" are a pair of delglt ful entertainers. bringing a classy bit of light fun and frolic for the amusement of their auditors. Eddie Parks excels in his repertoire of splendid songs. and little Miss Grace does some dainty and graceful danc- ing.
 Kroneman Brothers, acrobats. will add variety and spectacle to this most excellent bill These young men have real novelty in acrobaties and are bound to win their share of the public's appreciation
 glance at this stellar bill will convince you that it is a good one. real good one, musical, spectacular graceful and dainty, and you will miss a good thing if you fail to see it.

NEW CENTRAL THEATRE.

You must not forget that today the patrons Of the New Central are due to take another one of those interest. ing trips all over the universe aboard the Pathe weekly, the greatest publi- cation and sightseeing film in the world. Today this feature Is bigger and better than ever For instance, we'll see horses racing on ice in Minneapolis. while down on the Shrewsbury river, New Jersey, the ice yachts are holding their tourna- ments. That's some sport Of course, there are also scenes in foreign climes. and, taken all in all, you had better see this feature if you are a Pathe booster
 Polly at the Ranch just raised hob" with the cowpunchers. There was one great big bashful fellow, d man who would fight ten men but who ran away from Polly, and Polly liked him. so she got a "45" and put a bullet in his leg. Of course, he dropped and Polly had to nurse him, which was what she wanted. and he was glad he got plugged" Can't you see from that this is an extra good western comedy Then, too Lubin sends a strong drama tic feature, The Supreme Sacrifice, a story of the love of two girls for the same man The entire program is a winner and above the ordinary run of films. To miss it. is to miss the best picture show in the city.

These rehearsals haven't been running with elock-like regularity for nothing MT V. s.

Soon the act settled down into a duel between the accused wife and her attorney.
