make from which he is SO sure to re-
ceive generous dividends as from good
roads.
A reduction in the cost OF hauling
ia one of the most immediate benefits
OF q good road. A striking instance
OF this is shown by Investigations
conducted in Virginia where the av-
erage distance from the farm to the
market is 1910 miles, and the aver
are load for the staple crops is about
one ton. Assuming that the wages Of
\ two-horse team and driver are $500
-nar day. it costs the farmer In Vir-
einia an average Of 26 cents per ton
mile to market his crops. II the roads
were graded and improved with sur
facing suitable for the particular road
and region, the load could be In
creased at least so per cent and the
round trip made in the sane or less
time without any additional hardship
on the team. This would represent
q clear saving Of $3.50 per day to each
farmer in the state for every day IN
the year In which he was engaged ID

Fashions Set by Soldiers.

Alexander the Great is said to be re-

the Baltimore Sun observes. When
his phalanx swept into Asia the
boards of his soldiers were found to
be source of danger to themselves.
In hand-to-hand encounters with the
enemy the latter were found to pos
sess too great an advantage in being
able to grasp the beard. AS matter
of military necessity Alexander or
dered all his fighting men to shave.
Today in the trenches of Europe SOL
diers are permitting their boards to
grow as a protection against cold

7. NEW DISCOVERY

"Anuric" is a recent discovery Of
Doctor Pierce, who is head of the In
valids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y. Expert
ments at DR.. Pierce's Hospital for sew
eral years proved that "Anuric" is .
wonderful eliminator of uric acid. For
those easily recognized symptoms Of
infiammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination. as well
as sediment in the urine, or IL uric
acid in the blood has caused rheumar
tism, 1t is simply wonderful how surely
"Anuric" acts; and in gravel and govt,
invariably the pains and stiffness rap
idly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for 50-cent package OF
"Anuric," or send DR.. Pierce 10c for

country, it is a Well-known fact that
in our rural schools the attendance
almost invariably shows marked de-
crease during the periods when the
roads are bad. Another point worthy
of consideration is that the one-room
school is being supplanted by larger
consolidated schools throughout those
portions Of the country where condi-
.tions make it practicable to convey
children to school at the public ex.
pense. Roads passable at all times
are most necessary for successful
school consolidation. There Is abun-
dant evidence to prove that any ex-
tensive road improvement Is followed
by better schools and better school
attendance. IN some Of these schools,
advanced courses have been intro
duced, and 1t has been possible to
employ teachers having special quail
locations and training.
With good roads. some Of the adj
vantages Of the city can be brought
to the country. Social gatherings be-
come more frequent, and improved
social conditions exert q decided ct.
feet upon the principal objections to
life IN rural community loneliness
and isolation.
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1916-03-16

It is estimated that the people of
this country annually waste $250,000,-
900 because of bad roads. Investiga-
lions have shown that the average
cost of hauling on roads in the United
States is % cents per ton per mile.
1t costs the farmer more to haul q
bushel of wheat 9.4 miles, the average
distance from farm to shipping point,
than it ordinarily costs to ship it
from New York to Liverpool. In
France, England and Germany, consul
lar reports show instances where the
cost Of hauling agricultural products
is as low as 10 cents per ton per
mile. II the farmers of this country
could reduce the cost of hauling to Is
cents per ton mile, they would save
about $250,000,000 which now repre-
sents their mud tax"
The benefits of good roads are nu-
merous and far-reaching. They are a
powerful factor in promoting better
farm conditions throughout the coun-
try. They make the farmer more in
dependent of seasonal and weather
conditions and permit him to take bet
ter advantage Of favorable market and
prices. They increase the value Of his
farm and so enhance his material
wealth. They promote better agricul-
tural methods and are necessary for
an efficient rural delivery and parcel
post. They have profound effect on
our country schools and the home life
on the farm. There are indeed few
investments which the farmer can

Use Of spitLcs Drag, Arlington Farm, Virginia.

This is due partly to the decreased
cost of hauling and partly to the fact
that good road makes the farm q
more desirable place to live.
Moreover, improved roads have a
market effect on both the amount and
character Of production. For exam
pie, around the typical small town,
when the roads are not improved,
truck gardening, dairying and other
forms of intensive farming are con-
fined to small zone, Immediately
surrounding the town, which is usu-
ally scarcely sufficient to supply the
local demand. Without good roads
the production Of perishable goods at
any considerable distance from mar
ket or shipping point is too hazard
GUS an undertaking to be profitable.
With good roads the produce can be
brought to market with regularity and
in prime condition, two essentials in
successful marketing.
The parcel post makes possible d.
rect marketing between producer and
consumer regardless Of distance. But
here again the public roads play no
SHAT part, affecting not only possible
extensions Of the system, but also the
cost of its operation.
The condition of our rural schools
is closely connected with the condi-
ton Of the public roads. While it is
true that various factors contribute
to increase or decrease the attendance
