GOOD ROADS AND THRIFT.
France Sets an Example the Rest of
 the World Might Follow.

France Sets an Example the Rest of
 the World Might Follow.
 Good farms and good roads go to- gether. Good roads mean cheaper haul ing prices, better profits-therefore more money. The wealth of nation is the wealth of it's population. The population of the country of France is known to be the most thrifty, the least poverty stricken and the best provided for of any country in the world. And France has a better road system and more good roads in proportion to it's area than any other country of the same or greater size. Has France ru. ral wealth because of its good roads or has it good roads because of its thrifty peasantry?
 It is, therefore, for us in this country to look upon France not only as good example, but as the example of the fulfillment of dreams. We cannot solve our problem in any other way than as France has solved hers with any surety of success. She builds her national highways first, owns them, controls them, repairs them. She has her departments-her divisions core spending to our states-build their own roads as feeders of this system, con- meeting with it, joining national road to national road. Finally her parishes or communes-similar political divi- sions to our counties-build their own roads, interlacing. connecting and bind ing together the whole into one vast network of hard surfaced roads.-Sub urban Life.
