THAT SOUTH END ROAD.

The Eagles idea in regard to the
Improvement Of the 14-mile stretch OF
road in the southern end Of Brazos
county is this: The road from the
Nayasota river north toward Millican
for three or four miles, or as far as
the land is owned by Grimes county
people. should be improved Jointly.
From there on north to a point south
Of Wellborn, where u present good
roads district terminates, should be
improved by Brazos county alone.
There is no argument that can posi-.
bly, be advanced as to why Grimes
county should have any part in this
work.
With reference to the stretch Of
three or four miles next to the Nava.
sofa river that We believe should be
improved Jointly. the Eagle also has an
idea Of how this work should be done.
The country Is very low and is In a
wedge-shaped section caused by the
confluence Of the Navasota and
Brazos rivers. As q result II is easily
overflowed by the back water from
both streams In case OF heavy rises,
and this flood water remains until
both streams run down. Even then
. great many pools and lagoons are
left which remain the year round un.
less there Is a long drouth.
To improve the road with gravel or
any other surfacing material would
require a dump several feet high to
get the road above high water. and
such a dump would make a lake GOV.
ering twenty thousand acres ON the
north side OF the road.
The only feasible plan of improve.
ment' as we see 1t, would be a road
quilt on piling the entire distance
such a road would permit he wa,er
70 10y underneath and there would
De no complaint from back water. The
cost would be no greater, in u opln.
Ion than gravel or otner form OF sur.
ace Improvement, II as great. As NC
understand II. there is plenty OF cedar
IN Grimes county nearby for the nil
ing and a pile driving outfit can he
operated at no great cost. nearly al,
the labor being unskilled.
To our way of thinking this wou,d
be the solution of the whole matter
a road OF this kind would take N,
ua'fic out of the mud. and to keer
same In repair would be no create,
nan other forms of surface roads.
The Eagle offers this AZ n suggss
uon and believes II would be well Il
thoroughly investigate the matter and
reduce the proposition to absolu,,
facts and figures.

NAVY BEANS NOW IN LUXURY
CLASS.
Continue Upward March as War
Goes On and Top Isn't
in Sight.

Plain, every day soup beans, the
navy bean which has fed our armies
through many war, has risen from
it's humble, three cents pound po-
sition to the value of a luxury which
the average beaneater can i'll afford.
Michigan pea beans, the ordinary
boarding house variety, are selling in
Chicago at $40 per bushel Of sixty
pounds, or at the rate of practically
IL cents a pound Des Moines whole
sale grocery houses declare that the
retailers must get at least 10 cents
a pound for beans he buys at this
price and that two pounds for a
quarter would eliminate the profit.
The high price of beans, like that
of every other merchantable COM
modify. is blamed on the war and the
short crop of last year.
Bean history for the last two years
shows them to be susceptible to the
Influence Of the war to marked de-
gree. 1t will be two years ago next
month that the little white seed
jumped to the unprecedented price of
81 bushel. They had been selling
for $3.50 to 50 a bushel. The Europ-
can market doomed the price. Later
influences pulled them down again to
$3.25 year later, but the short crop
last year in Michigan and California
and the unusually poor quality Of the
Michigan crop, which is the most de-
pendable one, has bulled the bean
market again. Last year there were
many California beans and through
out the middle west, but even that
supply is practically exhausted now.
The present figure which is the
highest price eve. known for beans
in the United States, grows out of
the shortage of supply and the world
wide demand for the product. A
strong export demand, especially
from Canada, is reported and the do
nestle needs are greater than can be
met.
Local wholesalers were informed
recently by one of the largest can
nlng companies in the country that
they had withdrawn from the market
and will not quote any prices on
beans until the bean situation clears
up materially. TIE wholesalers are
expecting similar action by all Of the
other canning companies.
So far there has been but little
speculation in beans because of the
short supply, which eliminates the
chance for large profits.

Cow Pulls a Leg.

Speaking about peculiar accidents.
here is one that has them all cheated.
Milton Lamb, a young farmer west OF
town, had finished milking a heifer
and as he released her from the
stanchion kicked at her. When he
did so she switched her tail wrapping
the bushy end of it about his ankle
with half hitch. She started out
of the barn on the run, dragging him
behind her. AS he went out Of the
door he grabbed a ring in a post to
which he held with death grip yell
ing at the top of his voice for the
hired man to come to his relief. The
COW had him stretched at full length
and was trying hard as she could to
get loose. When the hired man cut
the tail off the animal was pulling SO
hard that she went end over end. Mr..
Lamb got out of the ordeal without
injury and the chances are he will
confine his kicking to bob tailed
