LET'S HAVE THAT ROAD.

Let's have cross road to the ridge
east of here. The route should be a
continuation of Central street, across
N, G, st. l.. R'y to lagoon, crossing
to Turner farm and hence following
east bank of lagoon to Sequachee riv-
er, where bridge would be necessary,
aud thence straight across bottoms to
ridge.
Benefits as follows would result.
Increased business for this place as
geographically we are bottled up now
for want of an east road, the throw
ing open of additional land for small
farms within easy access of town, the
increased value of farm lands east of
here with good road opened to them
from shipping point, and the practi-
'cability of hauling ridge gravel, of
which there is tons, in this direction
for use on vikes. Ridge gravel makes
splendid pike-the right kind-and
should be used instead of waiting un-
til county which is not progressing,
gets rich enough TO use crushed lime
stone for all its pixies.
This road should be built, and the
News will do its part if a general
road working can be got up. If right
of way can be secured we will stay
with anyone to see the job completed.

I'M. Jacob, University of Tennessee.)
As an advocate of the use of draft
horses in the South, the Agricultural
Department of the University of Ten
nessee is probably the pioneer. For
the past ten or twelve years the use
OF bigger mares has been urged, by
example and teaching, upon the farm
ers throughout the state and those
who have put into service the proper
types have met with excellent results
In almost every instance. To expect
the majority of farmers suddenly to
displace their lighter mares with draft
mares would be, of course, quite i'm
practical, but in many instances it can
be done on gradual and economical
basis, by the breeding of our native
mares to high-class draft stations.
The selection of the stallion is there
fore OF extreme importance, and upon
this the ultimate success of the draft
horse In the South depends.
The common impression that weight
is the most essential point to be con
sidered in the selection of a draft
horse is a great mistake. The draft !
horse should also possess good con-
soundness, quality and |
good breeding and action; for these

The people of Sewanee, Mon teagle
and Tracy City recently held a road
fest, SO as to get good highway be-
tween those places. Attractive circu-
lars were got out, the ladies made
great preparations for grub, and the
men oiled up their picks and shovels
and mules and went at it, A right of
way from Monteagle to Sewanee was
the prime feature of the movement.
These are the kind of efforts which
make life worth living in communi-
ty, for it means progress.

Whitwell and all upper Marion coun-

road up Walden ridge opposite Whit
well to connect with the James road
to Chattanooga, Hurrah for our
neighbors down the way. This road
will be great aid to that part of
the valley. That is the way to pro-
gress, if you can't do it one way, try
another. Hats off to the progressive
business men of Whitwell Dunlap

The above paragraph was printed
before the actual road working took
place, rather dangerous proceeding
in these days when there are SO many
who stand back and won't do anything
to help theil neighbors However,
the affair was great success, and the

tion, like Saul of Tarsus, with some
