TO PUT LYON TOWNSHIP
ROADS IN FIRST CLASS SHAPE

Fred Biehler writes this letter to
the Harrington papers:
The board of Lyon township is go
ing to see that every mile of road
that is not thoroughly graded al
ready is graded this spring, or early
In the summer. Now we would like
for every farmer to take one or two
of those corn cobs that he raised
last summer, stick one of them on
the end of a piece of wire, fill a III
tie machine oil can full of coal oil,
go out in the public road, squirt
little oil on the cob, set 1t on lire
and burn the grass and trash wher-
ever he can find any. You Will as
taxpayer help to reduce the cost OF
building good roads and at the same
time YOU will be killing chinch bugs
and other vermin, wintering in the
grass and trash. While we farmers
are doing this, Mr. Editor, l would
like to furnish the timber to stiffen
the backs of a majority of the city
council when 1t comes to passing a
law to make the people clean the
snow off of the sidewalks.
Yours for making the city and
country a better place to live in

PREDICTS GENERAL
BUSINESS REVIVAL
Fairfax Harrison Declares Wars
Effect on South is Proving
Only Temporary.
tBy Associn,ed prcas.l

WASHINGTON, Jan. Fairfax
Harrison, president of the Southern
Railway. declared today that wars eff
feet on business conditions In the
South was proving only temporary,
said the demand for cotton was grow
ing, and predicted q general business
revival.
THE world must have cotton" said
he. THE demand, both for export and
for American mills is increasing and
there has been q substantial advance
In prices since the depression was
worst. With q larger movement of cot
ton there will come an increased de-
mand for merchandise OF all kinds In
the south and a general revival of
business.
Southern farmers are meeting the
situation by planning to reduce the
acreage OF cotton planted in 1915 and
to devote the land thus released from
cotton to other crops and to livestock.
Statistics Of the department or agri-
culture and reports OF the agricul-
tural agents of the Southern Railway
company show substantial increases
In the acreage planted In fall grains
In every southern State. and the pros
poets are that q larger acreage OF
corn will he planted in the si.ing.
with al smaller crop Of cotton,
southern farmers will be assured OF
d better price for the crop OF 1915, and
TOR that part OF the crop OF 1914 which
must be carried over, and, with q
larger production of grain, they will
profit from the inevitable European
demand"
Mr.. Harrison added that many
southern manufacturers realized OPP
portunities for export business grow
Ing out OF the war. and that reports
indicaed they were taking intelligent
steps to secure q share of their trade.
