BUILDING
ROADS PAY FOR THEMSELVES
Department Of Agriculture Collects
Data Showing Land Values In
crease With Improvements.

The direct effect that changing bad
roads into good roads has upon land
value and the general economic well
fare of a community Is shown In sew
eral concrete Illustrations gathered by
the United States department of agri-
culture. The department has just is-
sued statement on the subject.
based upon a 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 increase to
such an extent that the cost Of road
improvement Is equalized. II not ex-
ceeded. The geenral land values, as
we'll as farm values, show marked ad-
vances, following the improvement Of
roads
Among the illustrations cited by the
department are the following:
In Lee county, Virginia, farmer
owned 100 acres between Ben Hur
and Jonesville. which he offered to
sell for s1,SOO. In 1908 this road was
improved, and although the farmer
fought the improvement he has since
refused $4,000 for his farm. Along
this same road tract OF 1888 acres
was supposed to have been sold for
$4,000 The purchaser refused the
ot
threatened to sue him. After the
road Improvement, and without any
improvement upon the land, the same
farm was sold to the original pur-
chaser for $4,000.
In Jackson county, Alabama, the
people voted bond issue OF $25O,OO0
for road Improvement and improved
"a per cent. Of the roads. The CEN
sus of 1900 gives the value Of all farm
lands in Jackson county at $3.50 per
acre. The selling value at that time
was from Sc to $15 per acre. The cen
sus of 1910 places the value OF all
arm lands in Jackson county at 1919
per acre, and the selling price Is now
SIS to $25 per acre Actual figures OF
increased value following road i'm
provement are shown.
AS the roads in no way affect soil
fertility or quality Of the farm, ad-
vances are due essentially to the de-
:rease in the cost Of hauling produce
o market or shipping points. 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 capitaliz-
alton into values. With reduced costs
for hauling profits are increased, with
the result that the farm plant shows
satisfactory earnings on higher cap
ital value.
The automobile, also, has begun to
be an important factor In increasing
rural values where good roads are In
troduced.
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 relation between demand and
supply.

FALSE THOUGHT OF ROMANCE
Sad and Dismal Tale Of q Young Man
and Z Lovely Damsel Who
Sold Soap.

Love came at first sight to the
young man when he saw her. She
was behind the soap counter, dis
pensing pertumed soap to those who
wished to buy 1t. and she was all his
impressionisuo fancy favored in
woman.
Her face was adorable. Her hair
was coiled bewitchingly. Her slender
fingers were deliciously pink. Her
dress, being neat and inexpensive, re-
vealed an economic nature, while q
necklace prevented the aspersion Of
parsimony. The young man. just
from college. with high intellectual
notions and yet sensible opinions as
to necessary thrift, believed her to be
his affinity. He knew that, taken
from the department store and placed
in the social environment that was
his, she would scintillate and charm.
He determined to have q word with
her-to please his ears with the music
of her voice; for he was sure her
voice must be musical. Elsewhere he
would have waited for the convention.
al introduction; here, where she sold
soap, the matter of meeting was
made obvious. He approached.
"Will you let me have a flve-cent
bar Of soap?" he asked-which, though
commonplace, was as good as any.
thing else for him to say.
She smiled angelically. revealing po-
etic, pearly teeth.
I'VE amt got no fve-cent cakes"
she told him; them in the case II

He turned away. His romance had
died a-borning.

Auto and Good Roads,

The auto has come to stay and there
Is nc use fighting against it or trying
to penalize the owners for destroying
country roads. There Is no doubt that
an auto will wear out dirt road
quicker than a team carrying 5000
pounds, and while the latter are pc
nalized in some states, all efforts to
give the same medicine to the owners
of autos have failed. The only remedy
is to build roads that will stand the
wear and tear Of heavy wagons, autos
and anything else and then take the
penalty off everything.

Good Roads.

The making of good roads Is one OF
the most important duties Of the
Ameican people and their prompt
repair and careful maintenance Is
essential. There is probably no sub
ject in which the progressive farmer
is more deeply interested than that
of having roads connecting him with
his markets over which he may be-
able to haul the greatest possible load.
Good roads, like all other good things.
are too expensive to build and OF too
much value to be neglected.

Duty Of People.

The making of good roads is one OF
the most important duties Of the
American people and their prompt
repair and careful maintenance Is es-
sential. There is probably no sub
ject in which the progressive farmer
is more deeply interested than that OF
having roads connecting him with his
market over which he may be able to
haul greatest possible load. Good
roads, like all other good things, are
expensive to build and Of too much
value to be neglected.

What to think about whatT' asked
the matron Just turned thirty. Her
mouth was down at the corners and
there was q wrongs-for.women look
In her eye.
About marrying. Dave Is begin.
ming to insist on marrying just as !
am beginning 20 see that have
some future ahead II / work out by
myself"
Don't hesitate a minute" said the
matron just turned thirty, and brought
her teeth together with noticeable
click. What can you do better than
anything else?"
II am interested. you know. in ce.
lestial mathematics"
Then go in for it. Go in for any
thing that has the word celestial In
it. 1t sounds promising. 1t may
lead you into heaven. Marrying
won't. There's no use to pretend that
it will"
"You said last week." began the
old maid, but the matron just turned
thirty wouldn't let her 60 on.
Il am talking seriously now," main.
tanned the matron, "and as one wom-
an to another l am telling this young
thing that a woman who expects mar.
riage to bring satisfaction is follow
Ing an ignis fatus. Men are all very
well for down town, but the woman
who looks to a man to make life seem
worth while Ia woman who Is fated
for a grand awakening"
The telephone bell rang then, and
while the matron just turned thirty
answered it the two regarded each
other with looks that said that they
were astonished at her and commiser-
alive of her. Then her voice at the
telephone came on to them In languid
cadence: why, yes, suppose l can
go. O, yes, l suppose want to. Real.
ly. You surprise me. From the way
you rushed off this morning l should
hardly have thought Yes, but what
made you forget? You have missed
Ye.es l have, too. You old darling!
All right, then, hurry home. I'll be
ready"
She came back from the telephone
to the two who had listened In con.
scienceless attention. Jim and are
going to have little celebration to-
night" she announced, shamelessly.
ITS our anniversary"
You hadn't mentioned 1t before"
said the old maid"
"No-he-we-it slipped our minds
this morning" She went out Of the
room then, red but radiant.
III you really want any advice about
marrying" said the old maid. turning
on the college graduate. you will
have to come to US single women.
You can't believe anything the mar
ried ones tell you. They are here
today and there tomorrow. Their con-
clusions about matrimony rest upon
no surer base than whether or not
their husbands remembered to kiss
them good-by this morning. They
haven't any perspective. 1t takes an
old maid to be president Of con-
gress of mothers, and 1t takes ono
to illuminate the subject Of mat
rimony for the young and unde-
cided."
Turn on your searchlight. Lets
have the illumination"
20, all that 1t comes to Is that
each woman has to decide for her
SELF" said the old maid.-New York
