ROADS GETTING
 IN GOOD SHAPE

The weather for the last two weeks could hardly be improved
 upon. Not only has it brought joy to the farmers, but it has gladdened the hearts of many tourists as well. While the soil has been getting in condition to welcome the farmers seeds, the roads have rapidly dried and hardened to hasten the trans continental tourists on their way.
 If all the counties along the Old Trails route would do as well by the road as Coconino is doing,
 this road would soon be in such good condition that favorable inn pressions would be left in the

minds of passing tourists.
 The road drag deserves most of the credit for the big improve ment made in the roads from Williams to Ash Fork during the last two weeks. These ruts have been filled up and the road smoothed off so that auto traffic has already produced a hard level bed. This stands in mark ed contrast to the road from Ash Fork to Seligman. This road is still full of innumerable ruts, many of them a foot deep for hundreds of feet at a stretch. The traffic is gradually improv- ing even these, but it is a nerve racking and painful task to put upon the autoist. We are in- formed, however, that Yavapai will soon have a gang at work on this road. That being the case, the old Trails road should soon be in good condition in spite of the wet winter. The good work Yavapai did on this road last year is still in evidence. All that is needed is more of it.
 NOTE: Such is the lot of the Country editor. This article was written Saturday. The compositor had to be kept busy. Press day finds the weather decidedly chang ed. The weather of the last few days could be improved very de- cidedly.
 However, the roads are improv- ing and if drag be used following these rains, the roads will be bett- CT for them.

right rottenness and rascality. The
matter to which we refer is Ing con
