We Have The Stone.

The factor of permanency in
road building is receiving care
ful consideration each year.
When buildings are erected for
any purpose, they are built in a
manner that makes costly annual
repairs needless-why not build
roads in the same manner? If
the total amount of money spent
annually for ten years, could be
put all at one time into a road
that would be good road for ten
years, why not do so? Tn e
'patch-upon-patch" system has
proven costly, with few good
roads to show for the money.
By good roads" we do not mean
roads that may be fair in dry
times; but roads that are good
during all seasons. After hav-
ing tried many kinds of material,
it seems to be the opinion that
brick roads offer the best solu-
tion to the problem. According
to biologists, and chemists, nc
better quality of CANISTER rock
exists in the State than is to be
found within a mile of McCon-
nellsburg. Should the Highway
Department ever decide to per.
manently pave the pike with
brick, what an opportunity for
this place to make a lot of money
making the brick right here!

Perhaps Free Trees.

During 1914. 3,4OO, 900 seeding
forest trees were planted in this
state by the Forestry Depart
ment and. it is estimated that
there will be 1900, 900 seedlings
ready for 1915 planting. If fires
could be kept from sweeping
away many of these young trees,
enough of them should grow to
insure our children, and their
children supply of lumber. The
State owns 100000 acres, and
annually spends 81 cents per acre
New York appropriates 10 cents
an acre, and New Jersey spends
s cents an acre annually on their
forest reserves.
A bill is now pending before
our legislature to make it lawful
for farmers and others to receive
free, trees from the State For
estry nurseries, the idea being to
encourage the planting of wood
lots, or to plant at points suitable
for rapid growth, and.where they
will be guarded from all injury.
And why not? Fish for propaga-
tion may be had free, why not
young forest trees? Seeds"
for sprouting political jobs are
furnished as free as water; but
for the love of Mike, keep the
free trees out of politics.

He "Put One Over"

A city man had occasion, re-
Gently, to call upon a local farm
er who, almost weekly, deposits
money in one of the McConnells-
burg banks. The city man went
to much trouble to tell his host
how to farm. When he got
through, our local man told him
that, evidently, he had missed
his calling, and that he should,
by all means, go to farming.
Said the city man, II don't think
| would like the hard work" "
Our local mans significant grin
put an end right there to the 9TH

impractical some things are. The
sums spent for real farm papers
are not begrudged, else. there
would be no farm papers. But,
it will be noticed, the farm pa
per that is sought by the sub
scriber is one that is managed by

BRONCHIAL COUGHS

When the bronchial tubes are af-
fected with that weakening, tickling
cough, they need immediate and sem
sible treatment. The breath seems
shorter because Of mucous obstruc-
tions; usually fever is present and
your head jars with every cough.
Your chest aches and the inhamma-
ton often spreads to the lungs.
The food-tonic that has proven its
worth for forty years-is SCOTS Emul-
sion. 1t drives out the cold, which
is the root Of the trouble, and checks
the cough by aiding the healing
process of the enfeebed membranes.
II you are troubled with bronchitis

member that Scott's Emulsion builds
strength while relieving the trouble.

New Scalp Law.

A few days ago, Governor
Brumbaugh signed a bill which
made a few changes in the pay
ment of bounties for noxious an
imals. The law provides that a
bounty of $500 shall be paid for
the scalp of a wild cat, $500 for
a fox, 81, 90 for a weasel, $1.0O
for a mink. Nothing is said
about bounties for hawks; and
since the customary repeater"
clause repeating all laws, or
parts of laws inconsistent with
this act" is attached, there can
be no other Interpretation than
that both red and gray foxes now
come under the bounty act.
Whether this was intentional or
not remains to be seen.
Another change is that County
Commissioners shall no longer
issue orders on County Treasur-
ers for payment of bounties. In
stead, claim for bounty shall be
made in the usual manner, and
the claimant will be given an or
der on the State Game Commits
sion at Harrisburg, to which the
order must be sent direct by the
claimant.
