Notice! Road Engineers and Fore.
men.
men,.

Now is the time of the year to do
the most effective work on the roads
Dirt put on the roads now will harden
better than it will put on later in the
season. But in view of the latenesS
of the spring and the fact that the
farmers are all behind with their
work, and wishing to so arrange the
work as not to interfere with the put
ting IN of the crops, | want to sug-
gest that each Assistant Engineer and
Foreman make it point to put in two
days on the road during the month of
April. Try to have all the roads gone
over during these two days, and fix
up all the bad mud holes and other
wise rough places so as to make the
roads smooth for travel during the
early part Of the summer. and reserve
the other four days work till later in
the season when the farmers will not
be so busy.
In this connection | would again
like to emphasize the necessity of
the roads. If l could only
once get the people to dragging the
roads after rains when the top Of the
road is yet a little soft I am satisfied
that they would generally take hold
of that method of smoothing the
roads. To those who have no drags |
would say that | will furnish the same
if you will send in after them. Please
get busy and dress up your roads as
ReSpt. j. N COffey,
County Road Engineer.

Bright days made their appearance
the latter part of last week, giving
the farmers an opportunity to get in
needed work. At the opening of
spring business of all classes is some
what dull, as the people out in the
county are busy on their farms. The
merchants and grocerymen send greet
ings to the farmers, trusting that
they may get in large crops, that the
rain and sunshine will come in due
time, and that the entire county may
gather in bountiful crops Of corn,
wheat and other cereals. When the
farmer prosper, every body prospers.

The Reason Fewer People Take
"SaltS."

We find the use of salts and other
harsh physics is becoming less every
year because more and more people
are using Rexall Orderlies, which we
and they firmly believe co be the best
bowel remedy ever made. They taste
so much like candy that ever the chill
dren like them. At the same time
they act so easily and naturally that
there is no purging, gripping or pain.
They promptly remove the conStipa-
tion and, by soothing and strengthen
ing the bowels, make it less liable to
occur again. We have the utmost
faith in them. We know what they
are made of and the pleasant, bene-
fetal results that always follow their
use.
You needn't take our word for it.
If ReXall OrderlieS don't help you-if
they don't entirely relieve all your
bowel troublesome back and tell US
and We'll give back your money. In
vest pocket tin boxes; l0c, Csc, SOC.
You can buy Rexall OrderlieS only
