ACTION SHOULD BE GENERAL
New York Post Heartily Endorses the
City Planning Exhibition Being
Held There.

Especial interest attaches to the city
planning exhibition from the fact that
the probable ratification of the excess
condemnation amendment will enlarge
the possibilities before New York Ex-
cess condemnation has probably
worked to best effect in Ohio, where
Cincinnati and Toledo have entered
upon large programs of city building;
while Cleveland, as the current Survey
records, has undertaken the first mu-
,nicipal experiment in suburban plan
ming and housing" through acquisition
of large tracts of land to be divided
and sold in building lots for working
mems houses. In many other ways the
exhibition, which we owe to George
McAneny and the Merchants associa.
ton, should be highly stimulating.
More than forty among the 200 Ameri-
can cities participating, and IL among
the Canadian, have city planning COM
missions, while in Massachusetts, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania helpful legis-
lation has been enacted. Our admins
traitors cannot afford to lag in fore
sight behind those of Toronto and
Philadelphia. The exhibition should
contribute to the enlightenment Of
thousands of citizens upon our civic
problems.-New York Evening Post.

Street Signs Regulated.

Pictorial advertising on large scale
on the streets is not favored abroad,
where the advertising is confined either
ito newspapers or to small artistic post
ers placed on special columns, some
three or four feet in diameter, each Of
which carries a dozen or more post
ers The effort is to attract attention
by the astistic effect of poster rather
than by its size. Such advertising col
umns may with advantage be placed
on safety isles, or in public squares or
at spacious corners, The interiors OF
such columns are fitted with switches
or transformers of electric distributing
systems, or telephones for the police
or fire departments.

COMMUNITY IDEA THE THING
Nc Doubt That Towns Should Be Laid
Out for the BenHfit Of All the
Inhabitants.

II Is pleasing to note that town.
planning organizations are coming
into fashion even in villages or 1000
population. Such agencies are not as
general as they should be, but the
idea Of directing the future develop
ments Of clustered communities along
thoughtfully planned lines, instead OK
on the old style go-as-you-please plan.
Is spreading. with hopeful indications
that it will come into universal &C.
ceptance.
The small town or village has the
same sort of interfering difficulty in
planning the layout in accord with ar.
tistic ideals that blocks the way In
the older parts OF the cities. The
town Is built, and quite often built
wrong, To put it right would mean
to tear down and respace and replace
the old structures. Such costly re-
modelling is never thought oft Is
simply out of the question.
Sometimes sweeping fire clears a
large business or residential area, and
then there is real opportunity to do
some effective planning, not only as to
the architecture of the buildings that
are to arise, but as to the setting and
spacing, and, perhaps. the parking.
But what every town can and should
do is to arrange the space that is
available not only to Identification,
but with regard to convenience and
sanitation. There is rather too much
individual freedom in the average
small town in the matter Of handling
property. There needs to be COM
munity idea that dominates individual
action.

The Same Road After Improvement

was from Sc to sis per acre. The
last census gives the value of Jack
son county farm lands as 1919, and
the selling price is now from SIS to
$25 per acre.
The price of farm land, like that of
any other commodity, is ruled by the
relation between supply and demand.
When the price of farm land advances
1T measures readjustment between
the supply and the demand. This re-
adjustment, in some cases, is SHARP
and immediate. One distinct item OF
increased values is becoming more
evident from year to year; that is,
immigration into the rural districts
where road conditions are favorable
especially is this true with regard to
owners of automobiles There are
repeated instances of this kind in New
England and those states which have
been active in improving their roads
The Rice belt journal. (Welsh, Calcasieu Parish, La.) 1900-19??, 1914-08-04

i virtue of its situation with respect to
markets, schools, and towns, and the
accessibility of these.
In dealing with this matter OF in.
creased farm values from a strictly
economic standpoint, it has been
pointed out and it is worth remember
ing, that where farms have advanced
in value the &ivanCe is due essentially
to decreased hauling costs. The ad-
vance in farm values, in other words,
measures partly the increased value Of
the farm as plant for the business Of
farming. That increment of value
which is due to those things that are
described as social advantages or i'm.
proved social conditions has no nu-
merical measure.
When his road is improved the land
owner appreciates the improvement
and frequently sets an increased value
upon his land 1t is difficult, however
to analyze the entire increment Of
value which follows good roads. There
is no doubt that the cost Of good
roads is met by some form Of taxa
ton, which, IN many instances, causes
the land owners to add to the selling
price of their land that amount which
they estimate the good road has cost
them in taxes,
This process is more distinctly OBJ
served in city property transfers,
where direct assessments for sewers
sidewalks, and pavements are invari-
ably added to the original cost of the
property. The important point that is
becoming more and more understood
by land owners is that good roads re-
quire a considerable investment of
capital, and furthermore that such an
investment is a paying one. Here are
few instances of actual conditions
which have bSen observed in various
parts of the country.
In Lee county, VtSinia, a farmer
owned 100 acres between Ben Hur and
JonesVille, which he offered to sell
for $500 Two or three years ago
this road was improved, and although
that farmer fought the improvement,
he has since refused $4,000 for his
farm. Along this same road tract
of 1873 acres was supposed to have
been sold for $4,000. The purchaser
refused the contract and the owner
Threatened to sue him. After the road
improvement, and without any i'm
provements upon the land the same
farm was sold to the original purchas-
er for $4,000.
In Jackson county, Alabama, the
people voted bond issue of $3.50, 600,
for road improvement and improved
"a per cent. of the roads The 1900
census gave the value of all farm
lands in Jackson county as $3.50 per
acre The selling price at that time

But when he does come to claim his own, he
comes into kingdom.
When Grant was president George Pullman
the palace car magnate, once remarked to him
that he had been looking for young man. keen as

But Pullman did get him, and for twenty years

The practical question confronting every
young today is not
Is the big job ready for you!
But:
Are you ready for the big job!
If you have the right stuff in you, you don't
have to go crawling on your stomach for any mans
favor.
You don't need to beg for job as if you were
asking charity. But don't swell up and wait fer
big jobs to come after you with brass band. j.

People will not take you your unsupported es

Ninety in hundred think they
would cut fine figure if only they could be
picked up and set upon ready made pedestal.
But there's nobody in the business of making
pedestals for others to stand upon.
A good way to begin is by taking the best Job
you can get, though little one. and turning it in
to a big one.
The smaller it is when you take it, and the big
ger you make it, the better.
