TELLING TIME

The two oldest inhabitants were
very ignorant, neither of them being
able even to tell the time of day. A
friend Of Uncle Ben's gave him a
watch, of which he was very proud.
One day, before the crowd at the cor
ner store, Old Pete, being slightly
jealous of such wealth and wishing
to embarrass his rival, said: Say,
Ben, what time have ye got?"
The other old fellow drew out his
watch and turned its face toward his
inquisitor. There she be-" he ex-
claimed.
Pete was almost at a loss, but he
made a magnificent effort and retort-
ed: Blame if she t!'-EVery-

construct their street, 1t Is even
urged that the expenditure should be
made propOrtionate to the assessed
valuation within the city limits: n
the proceeds Of highway bond issues
were distributed In this way, their
purpose IN many cases would be de-
teated. The primary object Of the
county highway bond issue is TO build
county market roads and not to inn
prove city streets, although q high
percentage Of the assessed valuation
may be city property. II Is now
known that the expenditure Of city
taxes on country roads is q sound
principle and that It Is one OF the
bast features Of state aid. for high
ways In Massachusetts, the city of
Boston pays possibly forty per cent
Of the total state highway fund. but
not 9 mile Of state-aid highway has
been built within It's limits. New
York City also pays about sixty per
cent OF the cost Of the state highway
bonds Some state laws prohibit the
expenditure Of proceeds OF state high
way bonds within corporate limits Of
cities or towns.
Cities are Dependent.
The improvement of market roads
results in improved marketing con-
dftions which benefit the city. Most
cities are essentially dependent upon
the surrounding country for their
prosperity and development. The de-
velopment Of suburban property for
residence PURPOSES Is also dependent
upon highway conditions and 1t is be-
coming evident yearly that whatever
makes for an increase in rural pop
ulation must be encouraged. Since
the introduction OF motor traffic, coun.
try highways are used to an increas-i
ing extcnt by city residents. In fact,
the cost Of maintaining many country
highways has been greatly increased
by the presence of city-owned y.otor
vehicles The general advance in
facilities for doing country business
from town headquarters when roads
are improved is no inconsiderable
factor IN the commercial life Of the
community.

care in pnrchasing.

Care in Purchasing.
I'm purchasing a farm great care
should be. taken to get a good farm
at a fair price. To pay or agree to
pay more than the farm is worth is
to invite failure From a business
standpoint no farm that does not pay
interest on the total investment, de-
probation on equipment, and wages
for all labor performed on that farm
is successful. s5
Even when great care Is taken in
making the investment only in ex-
|ceptiona1 cases should the city bred
family attempt farming. Generally
the best advice that can be given to
the city bred man who desires to be-
come a farmer is that before pur-
chasing a farm he work as a farm
hand for two or three years. This
will give him an opportunity to learn
at first hand many things about the
business. as well as the practical
side. Of farming. In no other way.
as a rule, can he get good farm train
ing and experience at less trouble
and expense or without danger from
financial disaster.

System in Plans.

IN planning the highway system or
the main market roads, it will be
found necessary to omit many roads
the improvement Of which is greatly
desired by abutting landowners. The
fact that such property holders most
pay a tax for the bond issue is only
an apparent injustice, for II the high
way system is well planned the entire
country will feel the benefits OF the
Improvement. As a rule, main mar
ket roads reach the majority Of pro-
ducing areas, and when they are i'm

The fact that cities and larger towns
are frequently taxed for boyd issues
to build highways outside OF Aleir own
limits is sometimes made point OF
debate in bond elections. 1t is argued
that because a large part Of the coun-

GIVES ADVICE
TO CITY Man
Who Wants to Be Farmer, Say
ing That He Should Work
as Farm Hand First.

WASHINGTON, Nov. The De.
partment OF Agriculture receives,
many letters from city people who
have read glowing ACCOUNTS Of the
wealth that may be made on the
farm. A large percentage Of these
people have already bought farm
land. Some Of them appear to: be-
blteve that theBreason all farmers are
not rich; Is because OF extrayagance,
wastefulness. ignorance and a lack
Of business ability. To these letters
the departments specialists reply
much as follows:
Farmers Are Intelligent.
s.As a matter of fact, farmers as a
class are intelligent, Industrious and
economical, and many OF them are
men OF good business judgment.
Further, those who have made q
thorough study Of the business side
OF farming know that It Is not an
easy matter to make money on the
farm Only the most pract teal and
Experienced farmers are making any
conside rable profit out of their bust
ness. Most Of the money that has;
been made on the farm In recent;
years has been made, not by farm
Ing, but by the rise OF price on farm
lands, In the nature Of things this
rise can not continue ind efnite1y, and
some one will own this land when
the price becomes practically sta
tionarys or perhaps starts to. declines
while 1t is true that OCCASIONAL,
" a city bred family makes good on
the farm, this Is the exceptional and
not the rule. tits always risk to-
invest in a business without first
making q thorough study Of that bus
iness. Many city people who have

who have had little or no farm ex-|
perience, but who are imbued with
a rosy vision Of the joys and profits.
in farming, buy poor land at high
prices and thereby lose the savings

make a first payment on cheap farm.
land, and when their eyes were
opened found they still owed consid-
erably more than the farm was
worth. For seven years they have
worked almost night and day to-
meet the interest, without being
able to reduce the principal. These
instances could be multiplied almost
indefinitely.

A SukE WAY no
END DAND|RUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp-At Once

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve il, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, Just get about four
ounces Of plain, common liquid arvon
from any drug store (this is all you will
needy, apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it insgently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, Of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or foti.
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel a hundred
times better.
If you value your hair, you SHOULD, get
rid of dandruff at once, for nothing
destroys the hair so quickly. 1t not only
starves the hair and makes it fall out,
but it makes it stringy, straggly, dull,
dry, brittle and ifeless, and everybody
notices it.
