Good Roads Notes.

= 4 ~ & p --
No other citizen realizes the
value of good roads as does the
farmer,
A community can safely be
Judged by the kind of highways
it maintains.
The greatest chasm between
the producer and the consumer
is the mud hole.
Production must cease when
the transportation costs eat up
the profits.
There is something radically
wrong with the farmer who is
opposed to good roads.
Without good roads, there can
be no development that will be
permanent and enduring.
Bad roads keep children away
from school and impair ithe eff
cheney of church work IN a CON-
munity.
The elementary principles IN
volvedl in improved highways S
are social and domestic happi-
ness and business economics.

Oktibbeha Mules.

Jones Brothers, who were here
last Saturday, from st. Louis,
and who are buying mules for
the European Army service, had
splendid lot of more than a
hundred fine Oktibbeha mules
offered them. However, their
prices were no lnducement, and
not a mule was bought by them.
This is prima facia evidence that
the War panic nor the Boil Wee
VII have struck our-farmers with
such force as to make them lose
all propriety of the value of good
Mississippi mules on good Mis-
sissippi farms. On this we con-
gratulate our farmer-friends, for
it but means that they are living
at home and boarding at the
same place.
