ROAD
Building
MAINTENANCE OF GOOD ROADS
Farmers Urged 70 Vote Against Bonds
or Taxes Whenever Plans Do
Not Provide for Up.Fs"p.

The progressive farmer believes in
good roads. as everybody knows. No
body needs good roads more than the
farmer and his family Good roads
increase profits and enrich social life
Poor roads cost more than geod ones
At the same time. we have reached
the conclusion that II is our patriotic
duty to advise our readers TO vote
against road bonds or road taxes
whenever the plans for building the
roads do not include proper provision
for maintaining them after they are
built. II Is just as foolish 70 spend
money o. build a road without at the
same time providing for funds to keep
u up as it would be to spend money
20 get q horse without providing feed
for him after be Is bought The South
has wasted millions and millions by
hGllt.Hc roads without keeping them
up and 10 is high time 10 stop vast.
INK the peoples tax money in this
fashion We must aim not merely to
get good roads but to keep good roads
Another important matter is that
Of having all road expenditures made
under expert supervision Secretary
OF Agriculture Houston says The
nation today is spending annually the
equivalent OF more than 5000 900. 600
for roads. Much of this IS directed by
local supervisors and It is estimated
by experts that OF the amount so di.
cent is relatively speaking. wasted
or misdirected Every state should
have a state highway commission. and
the people should not vote money for
any expensive scheme OF country road
improvement until it has been ap.
proved by experts
The third matter we wish TO EN-.
phasize is the importance OF the road
drag AS We have said before, the
drag is undoubtedly the cheapest good
roads maker ever invented. and II
some commercial company had pat.
euted it and sold it at five times its
cost every county in the South would
be using it. It is so simple and cheap
that people will not realize what a
wonder.worker il IS. The time to pre-
vent next winters bad roads Is now
and the way to prevent them is to
make plans to have the roads dragged

Count Beer As Bread;
Drink? Then Don't Eat

Berlin Germany. Sept 15.-The Ger
man Lodges of the Good Templars. =
temperance society with more than
10000 members. have addressed an
open letter 10 chancellor Won Beth
mann Hollweg;
Your exceIlency's government has
reduced the production II beer % per
cent since the beginning OF the war.
but 2100 tons Of grain are still used
daily for brewing purposes, this guam
tity of grain would be sufficient 10
feed 1o.og0.0oo people says the letter
II Undoubtedly your eEcelleucy knows
that for the production II one quart
Of beer eight and a half ounces Of
barley are used and that the daily
bread ration per head is only eight and
one-teuth ounces Barley is a bread
grain. like rye and wheat. and must
be saved as much as possible
IF the government considers II nee
essary 10 keep the breweries in oper-
alton, social justice demands that beer
shall only be sold TO holders Of bread
cards and that the consumers Of this
beverage shall receive corresponding
y smaller quantities Of bread
such a measure however, would Be
insufficient In our opinion all danger
Of a shorta &c Of bread grain and hunger
can easily be removed by closing the
breweries and distilleries until peace
returns"
The Fran kfurter ZeltunE SAYS IN an
editorial comment On the demand Of
the Good Templars-
The proposition made in the letter
TO the chancellor is logical and de-
serves serious consideration. II is only
logical that those who must have beer
vr rye whisky shall have the quanti-
ties Of these beverages used by them
charged against their bread cards"
The demand is also supported by the
Socialist newspaper Norwaerts, the
Catholic Cologne Noikszeitung and
many other influential papers.
