through sandbeds from ten inches

smoothly along road that rivals
the famous Appian Way of an

was called the Queen of Roads in
Caezar's time. and was built by
slaves. The Plains roads were
made by God-A'mighty and He
wasn't short on either brains or
material either. Crosbyton Re

But after all the roads on the
plains could be made even better
by a little attention now and

have a habit Of trusting to Cod

many others. When it comes &c

The people of Lubbock must
not forget that it is very i'm
portant that we keep the roads
leading to orr city in good shape.
The marketing of the 1913 crop
will commence now within a few

they have the best roads to

on this account we are 10 blame.
