Listen! Good Country Roads Pay For Themselves
HOW GOOD ROADS
 IMPROVE PROPERTY

The direct effect that changing bad roads into good roads has upon land values and marketing prices, as well as the general economic welfare of the community, is shown in several con- crete illustrations which were gather ed by the U. S. Department of Agri- culture. In Lee County, Virginia, farmer owned 100 acres which he of fered to sell for $1SOO. In 1908 his road was improved, and although tho farmer fought the improvement, he has since refused $3,000 for his farm. A nearby tract of 1SS acres is said to have been sold for $6,OOO. After road improvement, the same farm was sold for $9,O00. In Johnson County, Ala bama, the people voted bond issue for $25O,OOO for road improvement. The selling value at that time was $6 to $15 per acre. The selling price is now from $15 to $25 per acre.
 In another state, two farmers living at equal distance from a cotton mar ket learned by telephone that cotton had gone up in price $1. % per bale.
 The farmer on the bad road hauled one bale of cotton which was all he could get over the road. The other farmer on the good road was able to haul bades. The man on the good road gained $4 by the rise in price, while his neighbor on the bad road gained only $1 .O0 A farmer in Sullivan Coun- ty, Tennessee, had 100 bushels of Irish potatoes which he intended to market during the. winter. Owing to bad roads, he was unable to haul the potatoes at all.~ They routed in the celler. In the meantime, the price or potatoes at a market point went as high as $1 40 per bushell.

 Conservationists Threaten Trouble
 That the new Secretary of the Inter- for, MT. Lane, has thoroughly defined opinions as to his policy of handling public lands has been brought to the attention of the Senate through the first report of the Committee on Pub lie Lands. Senator Myers of Montana is the new chairman of this committee, and yielding to the insistence of Sec retary Lane he has entirely remodel ed his measure for disposing of 2100 acres of land in Montana. Notwith- standing the position taken by Senator Myers in yielding to the head of the Interior Department, it is understood that the gentlemen who stood sponsor for Conservation" in the government service, are not satisfied with the way things are being done, and are pre-

 WASHINGTON, D. C.. Sept. D. One hears a good deal these days about some of the Western Senators having changed their minds" in refer ence to some of the tariff Schedules. It is pointed out that a number of gentlemen who have declared that they would vote for free wool, and free sugar after three years, are pledged different to their people back home Senator Sutherland of Utah, declares that when people change their minds too often "it is an evidence of insta- bility.' To this Senator Gallinger makes reply: "It seems to me-" said the Senator, whether it is an evidence of intelligence or not depends upon the direction in which they change their minds" By the same process of reasoning a great statesman recent ly remarked that lobbyist is a man

COLUMBUS CARAVELS FUR $. }.
 MANNED BY A HARVARD CREW

Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner)
 SAN DIEGO, Cal. Sept. 2.-San Diego, is to see the reproductions of the caravels of Columbus, the Santa Maria, the Pinta and the Nina, and the harbor of San Diego is to be the first one on the Pacific Coast of the United States to hail them, after they have passed through the Panama Canal.
 These reproductions of the caravels of Columbus, constructed for the Wor- Ids Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893, have been in Jackson Park, in Chicago ever since that time, but on the fifteenth of last month they left the Jackson Park lagoon, and really started on their journey to the Pacific Coast They were first taken to the drydock at South Chicago, where they will remain until they are made entire ly seaworthy.
 From Chicago the little fleet wlI4 proceed to Boston, and there they will tie up for the winter. In the spring they will be manned by crews of stu, dents from Harvard and begin their long cruise. It is planned to skirt the Atlantic, stopping at San Salvador, tho

 Doubtless the little vessels will be compelled to stop at some Pacific port on the west coast of Central America or Mexico for supplies, but the first stop on American soil after their pas sage through the canal will be at San Diego.
 Andrew Raul, of Boston, a Harvard man, is behind the movement to bring the caravels to the Pacific Coast fol the expOsitions in 1915. He has fur niShed the Jackson Park authorities a sufficient bond to insure their return to Chicago. Winfield HogabOom of the San Diego Exposition, has taken up the matter of entertainment of the crews of the ships while they are in San Diego harbor, with MT. Raul, and has been assured that the fleet will stop in San Diego harbOr for a suffi cient time to permit of proper and fitting ceremonies, in connection with the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego.
