As is the case in towns and subur-
han localities, rural communities are
burning to concrete as the solution OF
the road problem. In practically all
sactions of the Omitted States the CON
crefe road is gaining in favor. Public
,rnrovaI or appreciation Of the con

shows its admirable surface. This
type of road appeals especially to the
farmer and his family, because 1t
provides them at all seasons with an
excellent place TO walk as well as a

During the nine days that the
Western Michigan apple show was on
in Detroit, 1874 people visited the
display and 767 copies of the illus
trated magazine western Michigan"
were passed out.
Three Wexford county boys have
been granted scholarships at the
Michigan Agricultural College be-
cause of reports made in connection
with the recently held corn contest.
These boys are Steward Lowe of Bag
nall, Lawrence Matthews of Manton
and Don Wright of Selma Township.
S. F. Postal of Spring Hill Farm
near Evart, in Osceola county, is un-
able to fill orders for fancy boxed ap-
plies at $3.50 a bushel. For two sea-
sons ne has taken pains to sort. grade
and pack his apples according to the
most approved methods and in conse-
quence is doing good business.
The farmers in the vicinity Of
Honor, BenZie county, who have been
growing cucumbers are rejoicing be-
cause of the news that they are TO
receive $100 a bushel for small Gu
cumberS next season. Already nICy
farmers have signed contracts. 1t is
estimated that 500 an acre can easily
be made growing cucumbers for the
sailing stations.
Clarence Lofgren, the 17-year-old
son of a Cherry Township farmer in
Wexford county, grew 140 bushels of
corn on an acre the past season and
was declared the champion corn
grower at the recently held meeting
OF the Boys Agricultural Club. The
corn was so good that part of it sold
for seed at $1.00 bushel. The total
receipts were $107. The rent for the
use of the acre of ground was esti-
mated at $500. The seed planted in
the spring cost 20 cents and the ferti-
lizcr used on the acre cost $500. The
boys labor for planting, cultivating
and harvesting brought the total cost
of the corn up to $22, which amount
subtracted from the $l05 received,
leaves a clear profit of $50. This
amount is the boys reward for the
use of his brains, he having already
received paw for the use of his brains.

or the cost Of mile OF indestructibIe

taking New York. New Jersey and

tinguished a title until he is well in
formed Of the resources, possibilities
and achievements of our country.
This is commercial age and CIV
ilization is bearing its most golden
fruit in America. We are noted for
our industrial achievements as Egypt
was noted for her pyramids; Jerusa-
lem for her religion; Greece for her
art; Phoenicia for her fleets; Chaldea
for her astronomy and Rome for her
laws. Likewise we have men who will
go down in the worlds history as pow
erful products Of their age. For, stand

movement that sways civilization is a
great man. The greatest minds travel
in the greatest direction and the com.

have been the sculptors. poets, phil

earlier civilizations.

Muscatine, Feb. 23.-The arrest of
Juan Topaz and his wife, Mary, &C.
Ecused of being an accomplice, was
declared to be another link. in the
chain which the federal government
is, driving in order to break up the
counterfeiting conspiracy in which
a number of MeXicans are said to be
engaged. The two Muscatine people
arrested are declared to be accom-
plices of several other MeXicans who
were apprehended at Moline, ILL.,, two
weeks ago and who are now being
held by the federal authorities at
Chicago.
The arrest of Topaz and his wife
was brought about by an investiga-
ton made by the local police in the
case of John Sanchez, who was ar
rested here during last week, charged
with incest. A story told by his step
daughter, who claimed that Sanchez
was the father of three of her chill
