Stretch Between C0urtland and Town Creek to be
 Finished Shortly

Town Creek, June 11.-(Special. )-Town Creek has been awarded the state appro- priation of s2000 to be supplemented by a like sum from the county. to be used on the pike between Town Creek and Court land. This sum is to be augmented by prlvate subscriptions by the citizens of the two towns to the amount of some thing like s2OOo which added to the state and county appropriations will aggregate about s6o0o
 This, il is estimated, will be sufficient to complete the pike between Town Creek and Courtland. a distance of five miles. The pike is completed for distance of two and one-half miles each way east and west, from Courtland. When the two and half mile link between Town Creek and Courtland is finished there will be a splendid pike from Town Creek to Wheel CTS, eight miles east of here, and will lack only short distance of reaching Hills boro, where it will connect with the splen- did pike leading from Hillsboro to Moul- ton, the county seat.
 Great progress has been made and much enthusiasm awakened in road building in Lawrence county in the last two years.
 The county has advanced In two years from one of the most backward to one of the most forward counties in the state in road improvement. considering popula- tion and tax values' The people of the county are keenly alive to the importance of good roads and are determined to rele- gate the mudholes to the rear in the near future.

Enormous Automobile Industry Is Ab- s0lutely Dependent on Elec- tricity to Make Combust-
 ion Engines Possible
BY HOLLAND

New York. June 11,-(special)-At a meeting of representatives of some of the electric industries of the United States.
 which was held at Philadelphia a few days ago, it was reported that the people of the United States now pay annually about s1,oOO0OO.00O for electric service of all kinds. This item was only one of many which set forth the present condi- tion of the electric industry in all it's de- partments in the United States and also gave some hints of what the future of this
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-06-12

industry is to be. One statement that attracted general attention was based upon the scientific estimate that electricity will speedily be brought into use for stim- ulating the crops so that they will yield in larger quantities and be of better quail ity than in the past
 Another of the statements was the as- sertion that at the present time electricity furnishes one-fourth of the industrial power of the United States. and that the presumption is strong and well grounded that the time is not distant when elec- tricity will be furnishing all but one-tifth or the energy which, until recent years, has been almost exclusively furnished by steam.
 There might have been another state ment which would have been of especial interest to the commercial and financial world not only of the United States, but of Great Britain and the continent of Eu- rope. This would have furnished in some detail the record of the stupendous amount of financing which the utilization of elec- tricity within the past 30 years has en- tailed. It could have been pointed out that the apparatus invented by Edison and the apparatus invented by Westing- house entailed. directly and indirectly, financing whose aggregate amount is not far from $10,000 GOO, 900.
 Some years ago in conversation with few friends, MT. Westinghouse said that he was convinced that the commercial utilization of electricity would, within the next 25 years, represent possibly larger financing than that which will be repre- scented by the expansion. improvements and maintenance of the entire railway sys- tems of the United States.
 The Greatest Financiers
 While in the strictly technical sense those who have created modern electric industry in the United States are not to be included in the list of great finan- ciers, nevertheless it Is well within the truth to report that those who have ere ated the great electrical industries of the United States have been In the larger sense very great financiers They have created new wealth in stupendous amounts and finance has put that wealth into negotiable form. One of the corpora tions which has developed an enormous electric industry sold in the year 1912 elec- trical commodities of the money value of $900o0.0O0. Yet this corporation was in corporated only 20 years earlier, and as recently 1909 its total sales were $44 000,- GOO, or almost exactly one-half what the total sales was three years later. It has created wealth which Is represented by securities of about S120.000 900.
 Another of the great electric corpora tions of the United States reported gross earnings in the year ending March 31. 1913. of almost exactly s40O00,000. whereas in 1909 its gross earnings were almost exactly one-half of this amount.
 But mere tabulation of the capital stock and the bonded indebtedness of all the electric corporations would by no means convey an adequate idea of the amount of financing which has been nec- essary to the development of the cleo tric industry in the past 15 or 20 years.
