mcnt, according to those who have
studied traffic conditions. The use OF
patented" materials in building roads
has proven costly to the eastern states.
Flown oils, paratines and other highly
distilled materials were experimental
with and it was found that the roads
could not stand up under the heavy
vehicle ravel. 1t was not until the
states adopted a standard road of rock
and pure natural bitumen with a two
inch surface binder that the waste was
sopped. 1t is practically impossible to
destroy the bituminous roads of the
east. Although they are the heaviest
Travelled highways in he world they do
not so to pieces, and the maintenance
charges are lower than on the ordin-
AIRY gravel roads Of the Northwest.
Meetings to Be Held.
All the good roads associations thru
out t:le state are planning to hold meet
ings to boom he highway questions.

stomach UPSET?
SOUR? "CASCARETS'
Gently But Thoroughly Cleasne and
Regulate Your Stomach, Liver
and Bowels While You Sleep,

That awful sourness, belching of
acid and FOUL gases; that pain in the
pit OF the stomach, the heartburn,
nervousness, nausea, boating after
eating, feeling Of %fullness, dizziness and
sick headache, mean a disordered
stomach, which cannot be regulated
until you remove the cause. 1t isn't
your stomach's fault. Your stomach
Is as good as any.
Try Cascarets: they Immediately
cleanse and regulate the stomach, re.
move the sour, u%ndigested and fer
menting food and foul gases; take the
excess bile from the liver and carry
off the constipated waste matter and
poison from the intestines and bowels.
Then your stomach trouble is ended.
4 Cascaret tonight will straighten you
out by morning. 10 cent box from
any drug store will keep your stomach
sweet; liver and bowels regular 70,
months. Don't forget the children
their little insides need a good. gentle
cleansing, toO.-Adv.

Cost Of hauiins Reduced.
With a bf;umincua road the FARMER
Il permitted ease OF traction for haul.
ing big loads to the city market. Ac-
cording to the United States govern
ment statistics the cost of hauling over
a poor road is twenty-five cents per
ton mile, as compared to ten cents Per
ton mile over a b;tuminOus road.
Where good roads predominant four
and six horse bitches are unknown

on loads. A farmer in New York state
a hau! as much with two horses as
the North Dakota farmer can with
four and six; and the eastern farmer
must meet heavier road grades than
those OF this section. There is a o
sequent reduction in maintenance all
around and no matter IL It rains for a
week the eastern farmer can get to
town whenever he pleases.
Farmers Objected at First.
When bituminous roads were first
agitatcd in the east there was strong
objection from the farming interests
on account of the supposedly heavy
tax. Every piece Of highway legisla-
ton was blocked and it was not until
a special session was called in New
York that the first budgets for roads
were approved and passed. After a
few miles of roads were built in differ
ent sections, and the farmers used
them for a time. the sentiment began
10 change. 1t was seen that good roads
saved many farming difficulties and
land values to figure higher
than those anticipated. If the eastern
hasn't got a good road fronting
his farm today he wants to know the
reason why. The farmers of North
Dakota lost enough money last year
through poor roads to create a fund
would serve in the starting Of
bituminous highway clear. across the
state. ""gG
Roads Should Be Well Built.

Parcel Past CHANGES.

Plans for the extension, i'm
provement and reduction of rates
of the parcel post were announced
last Saturda by Postmaster Gen.
eral Burleson. TIL e charges,
which are to become effective on
August Is. include an increase
from eleven pounds to twenty
pounds in the maximum weight
of parcels; a material reduction
in the postage rates in the first
and second zones, and the aban-
donment of the parcel post map
as means of computating rates
and the substitution for it of a
rate chaet individualized to every
postoffice in the United States.
While, for the present, the
maximum weight limit of twenty
pounds and the reduction of rates
will apply only to the first and
second zones, from any given
postoffices-a distance of about
$50 miles-the changes directed
constitute the first long step to-
wards universal extension of
the system and a general reduc-
ton in the rates of postage on

made as to need no apology or
defense for support next Novem-
Der. 1t is a family contest,
brother against brother, so to
speak, and the deadly weapons

can not produce good. We hope
that no supporter of any one will

Democratic nomination does not

depends largely on the conduct

wild as this statement may ap-
pear to some, time will prove its
correctness. With due caution
exercised in selecting the strong
est men for each place on our
ticket, the men least assailable
by our opponents, the stronger
will be the Democratic position.
AS to the strongest men, the
ones best fitted for the various
positions, is not a matter for the
News to state. This is left to
the judgment of every man to
determine, which ought to be
done withssdue consideration for
victory next fall and for good
oficials.thereafter. Its Dem
ocratic contest and it ought to

Time to be Taxed.
parcel matter,

In Frankfort-on-Main every
person of a responsible age is
supposed to be well enough off
to pay for his own timekeeper,
be it a guaranteed chronometer
or an old time water clock. Con-
sequently the city authorities see
no reason why superfuous clocks
which show their faces in the
street should not be taxed, and
all the more so as they seldom
agree with each other.
The tax proposed is one of
from 30 shillings to 80 shillings
yearly. 1t is to be levied, not
in accordance with the ina ccur-
acy of each individual clock, but
according to size.

How much was that all to-

Wait, / just got this letter

quite a time he announced with
pride and satisfaction, IF you
add in the $213, 200 for the Mays
vile road, that makes 81, 1853, 1922
that was given in State Aid way
back yonder before land was
worth much and before there
was any factories or big business
to tax"
why do you reckon they done
it, Uncle Bill?"
Because they had more every
day common horse sense than we
got, | reckon. They was sharp
enough to see that it wasn't any
tax; but an investment to boost
the price of their land"
Il reckon that's so, Uncle
Bill"
Sure, it's SO. The poorer
your land the more you need a
road to make it sell. If it is
first class land and off the road,
you can sell it; but if it's poor
and off the road, you're up
against it. Most of our land
we'll, it's poor enough to need a
road to make it sell for good
stiff price"
"Of course, everybody knows
that good roads are neeeed and
needed bad"
well, then, if all of US know
we ought to have good roads,
and we know they'd improve the
price of land, all we got to do is
to find out the cheapest way,
isn't it?"
Yep"
well, then, if anybody's got
a better and a easier way than
State Aid, just trot it out and
I'm for it all right"
