BAD ROADS VERY EXPENSIVE
Value OF Horses and Mules In One
County In Missouri DeterIorsted
Per Cent Annually.

From the 1910 United States census
reports It is found that the value of
horses and mules in one county In
Missouri was 1891, 0S9 The value Of
farm vehicles, harness and other
equipment was s375,O00, making a to-
tai OF s1,206,Oss. The present roads
OF the county cause all animals, vehi-
cles and harness to deteriorate three
per cent per annum faster than they
would on improved roads. Three per
cent of s1,20s.0s9 is s36,1s2.
This is only one source of loss
which the county must bear every
year on account OF bad roads. Again,
the cost per ton mile for hauling on
the roads in the county is 80 cents,
while the cost on good roads is only
IL cents per ton mile, thus saving
16 cents per ton mile.
There are about one hundred thou
sand tons hauled an average OF FIVE
miles in the county; rs per cent Of
this amount would be over improved
roads provided the present bond issue
carries.
Seventy-five per cent of the 1O0, 900
tons equal $4,000 tons.
This amount hauled five miles rep
resents 5000 ton miles; 375. 900 tons
multiplied by 16 cents equals 100000
plus s36,1s2 equals s96,1S2 total an
nual loss on account of present roads
as compared to improved roads. This
annual loss would be eliminated If the
main or heavily travelled roads of the
county were improved.

HOW TO GUARD
AGAINST PNEUMONIA

In the Better Babi's department
in the February Wcman's Home
Companion there appears new sarv-
ice offered to mothers. mDthers-to-
be. and social workers. 1t is filled
with practical suggestions of great
value and interest. From this serv-
ice appearing in the February issue
is taken the following advice as TO
how parents and others can guard
against pneumonia both for them
selves and for their children:
February is the month when
pneumonia is busiest and ,deadliest.
In Chicsgo and New York last Feb
ruary mo &c than one thousand per-
sons died of pneumonia.
Pneumonia is now classed by ply
sicians as preventable disease. It is
an infectious dust disease. due to
germs which can be fought with
pure air.
Pneumonia germs thrive and mul
tiply in unventlate1 school rooms.
stores. factories. homes. and NOV
ing pictures theatres.
Dry-sweeping and busting put
germs in circulation. Moisten your
broom and dustcloth when cleaning.
Wash and dry both when your task
is done.
DRY air dries out the mucuous
membrane or lining of nose and air
passages. leaving them susceptible
to infection and exposed to colds. IL
you have steam heat or hard coal
burner in your home. always keep a
pan of water on the radiator or back
of stove.
Pneumonia is sometimes the re-
suit of a neglected cold. Treat cold
promptly.

TROUBLES BOSH!

The show and sleet retard our feet
We slip, we slide. we wade.
Ard then to make our woe complete
We're very. much afraid
The coal is all gone from the bin.
The pipes are on the blink.
We cannot make the water run
Out of the kitchen sink.
A tide of woes has sure beset
Us folks these winter days.
Dali care is now the one best bet
In several different ways.
But when we know that all is lost
And there's the d ucs to pay,
We think about the Belgians and
