Cost OF Hauling Big Factor IN Expense
Of Farm Products to Consumer.
Until very recently the vast majOri-
ty Of people failed to understand that
the good road Is not a mere country
dweller's convenience or the means to
motorists pleasure. but that 1t is an
actual economic necessity. That 1t
costs the farmers OF this country more
for a ten mile haul ot produce from
farm to town than it does to ship that
produce from New York to London is
fact. That il costs farmers abroad
from one half to one-tenth as much to
haul a ton mile ON u road as 1t does
the farmers OF this country is another
fact
That practically every pound Of flesh
and bushel OF wheat we consume must
travel over a road at least once and
sometimes twice before we eat 1t is a
third fact. The three are the answer
to one part Of the question. why does
1t cost 50 much to liver Some one
has to pay for the expensive hauling
Some one has to pay for the deprecia-
ton in the value Of the horses and We
hicles caused by poor roads. Some
one has to pay for the extra time It
takes to haul cotton to market when
two mules are required to haul two
bales ten miles In one day. when on
good road the same two mules could
haul twenty-four bales In the same
time with the same eff0rt.-Suburban

made arrangements by which they will

LEAVE OUT THE SUPERFLU0US
Some Truth in Assertion That Pros ent Generation Considers Too
 Many "Wants" as Needs"

A woman who has been observing people and things has come to the conclusion that the expense of living today is largely due to individual in dulgence. People want so much more than they formerly did. or at any rate, if they wanted 1t befora they often did without it. for expe diency's sake; but now. she says, to want and to have go hand in hand without regard for expediency. Thfs woman says: My idea of the wide spread complaint of the high cost of living is that people are not temper ate in supplying their three principal wants, namely: food. clothing and shelter. Some people cut down on food and shelter and spend an over abundance on clothing. Others in. dulge themselves in rich foods that are absolutely unnecessary. Stin others like to live in fashionable quarters and neglect their food and shelter. A person to be happy must preserve a balance in all things One must be temperate with regard tc food, clothing and shelter. Live in [ respectable but not ultra-fashionable neighborhood; wear standard clothes not the latest Paris fashions; ca: good, substantial food. not rich, tasty delicacies that cater only to the pal ate, Is my parting advice"

That Vacant Chair.

Perhaps 1t is more sad when chats fS vacant in life than in death. Men make feast. Many who might belong at the table are not there. Death has not claimed them. What the world votes to be failures has kept them away. In the race as 1t is run they are the laggards. Perhaps. in our reckon. ing they will never win. Had you noticed how in the next generation their children almost always arrive? The poor mans son iS the rich man of tomorrow and the children of "faiL ures'' are the eNcountry's future success es.

 That Shocked.

There are still two opinions con- corning red hair. She was very proud young mother. All the old mas ters had never painted such 8 bam- bino, had never imagined such cher ub as hers. Quite simply she be lieved it. And the baby's hair was red. It did not occur to her that red hair was anything but completely and whol ly admirable. The little shining cop per colored head seemed to her the sum of all that was radiant and love J
 I've come for the baby's wash, ma'am."
 It was Mrs. OLeary, the washer woman.--a rawboned, dejected soul who spoke. Evidently there was for her no inexpressible glory shining amid the blue and white draperies of a bassinet How hard the world was on some women! So thought the young mother and proudly drew back the cover from the baby's nest.
 Come and look at my little daugh- ter." she said See. she has red hair"
 A flash of some strong feeling could 1t be compassion ?-illumined the detected features of Mrs. OLeary. The proud young mother felt her hand gripped in g grasp of iron. and & warm Irish voice sounded in her ears.
