The premium list OF the Cavalier
county fair Of 1915 and other matter
advertising the attractions of the fair
can be looked for now in a very short
time and may be confidently expected
to show that this years fair both in
exhibits and attractions generally is
going to be the biggest and best fair
ever held in this or any other county
in the state. The crowd of visitors
should be correspondingly large as it
is hard to remember when the crop
conditions were better than they are
at the present time. Watch our
farmers harvest a bumper crop this
fall and get a top price on the market
for it just as soon as it is threshed.

The wheat market has been tilted
wrong end up all week, but as it will
be three months before Cavalier
county's crop comes on the market
present conditions don't cut much
figure. It's the September market
that is being watched.

Secretary Of State William Jen-

o:fcial members of President Wilson
cabinet and the policy Of the govern

state at a meeting Of the cabinet held
Tuesday afternoon. There has been
a delay Of several days in the for
warding of President Wilson'S reply
to the German note, and no doubt
exists since Tuesdays developments

people regarding the attitude Of the

JUNE WEATHER COMPARISONS

June of 1915, up to date, which
means the opening one-third of the
month, has passed with only an occa-
sional glimmer of sunshine, but an
over generous share of cold stormy
weather during which the thermome-
ter reached the low temperature of 81
degrees-fve below the frost line on
Monday morning, when the more ten
der garden truck, including, beans,
corn and potatoes showed evidence of
being "scorched' by Jack Frost.
The following morning Tuesday, the
wind-up of a cold drilling rain was
accompanied by a noticeable falling of
large flakes of snow. The moisture,
which since June 1st is something
that all are thankful for but the ac-
companying cold spell might have
been overlooked by Mr.. j. Pluvius
when he made his visit. The June
weather, especially of the 9TH, 9Th
and 9TH are recalled by the old timer
and verified by the Democrats files tc
that of June 9TH, 9Th and 7th il
1901, fourteen years ago, when the
weather was almost Identical with
this-and we had a good crop tina
fall too.

were going into debt.
Good roads will save the faFmer
much time, money, cost of hauIsge and
wear and tear of harness, wagons and
stock. Now, experience has shown
that in this matter of building improv-
ed roads, the upkeep is of equal impor-
tance with the original building of the
road.
The Governor recommends 1.-THE pa
troll system which has been adopted by
most of the New England States, and
has reduced the cost of maintenance
and prolonged the life of the initial
construction. Wider tires would have
a beneficial effect upon the roads and
materially reduce the cost of their
maintenance.
The present system of locally looking
after and patching up the roads, is both
ineffective and costly. There should be
good engineer with practical know
ledge of road building aided by corps
of helpers, to superintend and keep in
repair all he roads of the County.
"a stitch in time saves nine, is Pc
culiarly true of road oversight and re-
pair. Prompt mending of trivial de-
tects or breaks prevents serious and
often fatal injury to costly road. By
all means stop this old practice of
Tom, Dick and Harry ignorantly tink-
ering our roads.
If not as bad as the old graft system
of local road making, this local mend
ing of these costly new roads is unscien-
tific, and wastes both money and roads.
The Governors suggestion of wider
tires should have instant acceptance,
The largest number of vehicles using
the roads are carriages, having tires
the quarters to one and one eighth
inches wide. An increase of but so
per cent would greatly lessen the cut
ting which so soon harms the roads.
A two inch tire should be the smallest
the law permits.
The advantages to the farmer would
so far outweigh the slightly increased
cost and weight, that one wonders far
mers have not long ago demanded this
reform that France, the worlds pio-
neer in finest roads has had for almost
half century
The broad tires last longer and the
hauling is at least as easy even on
muddy roads, while the damage to
these good, expensive roads is much
less.
In France any vehicle carrying ton
must have four inch tire, and greater
weights a front tire whose tread is so
placed as to give the effect of an eight
inch ire width! How senseless to
spend thousands of dollars a mile build
ing fine roads and then straightway
cut them up with three-quarter inch
carriage tires!
AS for law requiring all carriages to
carry lights, one would think that the
fearfully imperiled carriage drivers
would for their own greater protection
have long since asked for such law to
protect them from the moi seless,
flying auto
Therefore let us have these three road
reforms, 1st, scientific oversight OF all
the roads in the county; I'd wider tires
for carriages; 3tl lights at night on all
vehicles.
