LAND VALUES RAISED
BY|MPROVED ROADS
Increase in Selling Prices of
TiIIabIe Farms Shown by
U. S. Figures.
REPORT BY SPECIALISTS

To determine as far as possible the
exact dollars and cents effect on a
county of the improvement of bad
roads. specialists of the Office of public
roads and rural engineering of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture made economic surveys in eight
counties in each of the years from
1910 to 1915, inclusive.
This study of the increase in the
values of farm lands in the eight
counties reveals the rather interesting
fact that following the improvement of
the main market roads the increase in
the selling price of tillable farm lands
served by the roads has amounted to
from one to three times the total cost
Of the improvements. The increase in
values in those instances which were
recorded ranged from SO per cent to so
per cent in Spottsylvania county, Va.
from 6S to 1874 in DinWiddie county
Va; 20 to so in Lee county, Va; % to
100 in Wise county. Va. 8 to ia in
FRANKLIN county. n. Y; so to 100 in
derdale county. Miss, and from so to
100 in Manatee county. Fla The esti-
mates of increase were based for the
most part upon the territory within a
distance of one mile on each side of the
roads improved.
In Spottsylvania county. careful
record was made in 1910 of thirty-five
farms located on the road selected for
improvement. OF the seven farms sold
in 1872. the prices actually paid show
increases of from 81 to 116 per cent
over the 1910 valuation The average
value after the roads were improved
was *Ze26 per acre. compared with

KANSAS TEACHERS
 BEGIN TO ENROLL
Eight Towns Have Entire Teaching
 Forces Enrolled.

The campaign for the advance en- rollment of teachers into the Arkan- sas State Teachers Association, for the meetings, which will be held in Little Rock April CTS, 1916, has just begun to be waged all over the state. Ten thousand enrolment blanks have been sent out to the Superintendents and principals and county committee men over the state, and responses from these are being received at the Secretary's office daily.
 Secretary Laseter states that al ready about one hundred and fifty teachers have enrolled for the coming April meeting and that the superin- tendents from the following schools have enrolled their entire teaching forces Brinkley, Bearden, England, Stuttgart, Batesville, Malvern, Tom berlin and Sherrill.
 This is a much better showing than was made, up to this time last year. It is expected that fully fifteen hun dred teachers will enroll before the opening day of the Association. All reports indicate that the State Teach ers' Association, this year, will be the biggest in it's entire history.

informations are filed against them. The informations filed against the others are practically as strong as those against Brock and I believe they will be convicted.
 "The indictments and informations that probably will lead to indict- ments since they began working about the middle of November, will amount to 40 or 30. which we believe rleased with the assistance rendered by both the county and city officials here, who have bevn ready to res pond to our calls at any time.
 "I was glad to read an editorial in The Gazette of Friday commenting the officers of Phillips county for the splendid work that they have ac- complished in the enforcement of the state wide law. Sheriff Amos Jarman of Phillips county has spared no means at his command to run down the bootleggers and bind tigers Of Helena and his county, for which he deserves the praise of every good citizen in the state.
 What Sheriff Jarman has done in Phillips county can be done by any peace officer of our state with very little exception to the rule. l do not mean to criticise any officers, as am delighted at the way our statewide law has been enforced throughout the state, which is much better than had anticipated.
 'It only shows that the people of Arkansas, as whole, are ready for statewide prohibition, and that since we have the statewide law they mean to see that prohibition prohib- its, which is, as the editorial suggests a lesson to other dry states"
