GOOD ROADS NOTES

(By Homer ID. Wade, Chairman Good
Roads Committee, National Farm
erG' Union.)
No other citizen realizes the value of
good roads as does the farmer.
community can safely be judged
by the kind of highways it has.
The greatest chasm between the pro-
ducer and the consumer is the mud
hole.
Production must cease when the
transportation costs eat up the profits.
with the farmer who is opposed to
GOOD roads.
Without good roads there cal. be no
development that will be permanent
and enduring.
Bad roads keep children away from
school and impair the efficiency OF
church work in community.
The elementary principles involved
m improved highways are social and
domestic happiness and business eco

KEEP EVERYTHING AT HOME.

The war situation is becoming more
and more complicated and more ser
lous every day, so much so that the
thinking men of the nation are appre-
hensive that the United States is like
ly to be drawn into the trouble. not
withstanding the most strenuous eff
forts put forth to avoid such a ca
lamity. Could we not adopt a policy
of entire isolation? Let our shins
and our citizens keep out entirely.
Ship nothing away. Keep all our cot
ton, grain, horses, munitions of war
everything at home. If the belliq-
erents want our stuff let them come
after 1t and take it away under their
own flags and upon their own respon-
sibility, but SO. far .,s American ships
and American citizens are concerned.
let there be entire and perfect and
complete isolation. If the worst should
come we will need all we've got and
more.
If the most highly civilized nations
on earth" want to scrap, fight. mur-
der and kill, let them go ahead. But
let the United States cut the wires and
close the gates, and everything and
everybody stay at home. If theUnit-
ed States had refused in the beginning
to ship anything and everything what
soever to that land OF blood and ra-
pine, it would have been best. So it
appears to one who confesses to know
but little about the miserable affair.

The Earliest Artillery

We think of eighteen-inch artillery
as distinctly modern. Yet the first
cannon ever taken into the field were
of that caliber. A crude mortar was
fired at the battle of Crecy, fought in
1916. The early cannon balls were
chiseled from stone, and the proiec-
tile, which fits the ancient mortar. i,
made of solid granite. Two power
full men could scarcely lift it. These
ancient projectiles remained in use
for surprisingly long time, for it
is recorded that in 1907 British man.
of-war engaged against the Turks had
her mainmast severed by a seven
hundred pound stone shot from Tur-
kish battery.-The American Boy.

NEWS
That Westmoreland Davis, of Lou
don county, for several years Presi-
dent of the State Farmers Institute,
will shortly announce his entrance
into the race for the gubernatorial
nomination is becoming more evident
every day.
Asked for q statement today as to
the probability of his candidacy, Mr..
Davis, who is in the city, said:
81 have received number of let
ters from friends throughout the state
suggesting that l enter public life.
In all frankness, | must say that
am deeply touched and gratified at
the mention of my name for the high
est office in the gift of the people of
Virginia. | am profoundly interested
in constructive legislation that will
will benefit our people, especially the
farmer. In order that our achieve
ment may be permanent we must build
from the very foundation up. What
is needed is constructive legislation.
We have too long followed the shad-
ow, and lost sight of the substance.
We need legislation that will have to
do with the practical problems of our
life, and enable our people to add to
their material welfare, and to secure
for themselves an increasing prosper
ity, whereby more and more they may
secure the necesssaries of life and
some of its luxuries. No man, how
ever, can be made rich by legislative
enactment; good government must
provide opportunity for all.
81 am farmer, and shall contin-
ue to cooperate for the betterment of
agricultural conditions, upon which
depends the future greatness and pros
perity of the country.
"You have asked for a statement
from me, with some diffidence, offer
these as the ends to the accomplish
mcnt of which my civic activities are
directed.
"The Democratic primary is a long
way off-too long off for me to now
express political ambition or purpose.
Whoever the people of Virginia ma,
in time select for this great office, /
am sure that he will typify the best
traditions of our state"

Newark post., 1915-04-07

The State has sent approx
mately 100000 in constructing
improved roads which compare
favorably with any in the country.
The next step in their improve
ment is to beautify them and make
them more attractive by the plant
ing of shade trees.
The State Board of Forestry,
which is charged with the admin
istration of the Roadside Tree law,
is prepared to cooperate with
towns, associations and individ-
uals in the work of planting trees
along the streets and highways.
Suitable trees can be purchased
and planted along Maryland's
highways at a cost of 81 or So
each. Trees that grow to large
size should be spaced not less
than so feet apart, while those
that do not reach a great size
should be spaced from 30 to 40
40 feet apart. In the first case it
would take about 200 trees to the
mile and in the second 300 to $50
to the mile.
In order to assist in this move
ment and furnish demonstrations
of well-shaded highways the State
Board of Forestry will furnish
free either locust or tulip poplar
trees for a mile of planting in each
county of the State-also supply
ing a competent man to supervise
the work under the following con-
ditions: The mile to be planted
must be along an improved road
outside of the corporate limits of
any town and the abutting prop
erty owners must all have given
their approval of the planting; the
trees will be planted within the
right of way of the road; where
tulip poplar is used they shall not
be less than so feet apart; where
locust is used not less than 30
feet. The applications will be
considered in the order in which
they are received, but the State
Board of Forestry reserves the
right to accept the proposition
that offers the best opportunity
for demonstration in each county.
This offer is open to County
Commissioners, associations or
individuals that may be interest
ed. With Arbor Day and the
planting time at hand, it is i'm
portant that quick action be taken.
