The Telephone
and Good Roads

The telephone goes hand in hand with good
roads.
The telephone overcomes many of the obsta-
cles of bad roads and makes it possible for the
farmer and other rural residents to transact bust
ness in the city and with neighbors when the
roads are impossible.
Progressive farmers are insisting upon good
roads and telephones These two agencies of
modern civilization are doing more than all Others
toward eliminating the isolation Of country life.
You can have telephone in your home at very
small cost. Send postal for our free booklet
giving complete information.
