 There is at present great shortage of ships for world commerce, and though this shortage will be to an ex- tent relieved when the German com merce fleets are released and the French and British ships now diverted to war uses get back into trade, it is likely that there vii be a call for ev- cry available ship when world trade gets back to the normal. There is one phase of American commerce that will not decline with the ending of the war. The bringing of ore from Cuba and South America and the conveyance of coal to South America and southern Europe represent a phase of commerce that is but in the beginning. The coal fleets and the ore fleets will grow Torrington Register.
 Fresh eggs-"Thank God for Will son'-are 65 cents dozen, and likely Thanksgiving day. Thus does the promised reduction in the cost of liv- ing proceed. And still.'' as President Wilson said in his Wilson day speech at Shadow Lawn, "the great work is not hed."-Springf1el Union.
 It is not pleasant for the consumer to contemplate the increased price of milk and butter, but the advance is more logical by far than that of coal and some other things. Grain is sky larking and milk producers have to purchase it whatever the cost. Their only salvation is to ask enough for their product to cover the costs. It is a long chain and the hook appears to be fastened firmly to the pocket of the consumer.-Bristol Press.

GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT.

The good roads movement is no
longer a state affair. tits move
nomination wide. The govern
mentappreoiates the valueoi good
roads. 1t is a means of bringing
the markets of the country direct
ly to the markets in the city.
There WAS a day, and not 30
distant, when it was almost inn
possible for the farmers in certain
sections to reach the railroad
points of shipment. There was
day when the man titled the
soil, who applied his energy to
produce natures yield found it
almost impossible to place his
product before the people in want.
Good roads will make this pos
sible.
1t has been charged that the
good raods movement is because
of the growing popularity Of the
automobile. This may be true.
The allegation is not denied, The
farmer feels this in a sense to be
true. He buys himself an auto
mobile to prove the advantage
of good roads.
The old rural prejudice against
mo,er oars is fast wearing away.
The advantage of good roads is
making its silent appeal to all
sensible people, whether they
are farmers or whether they are
city folks.
In the old days. before the days
of railroads, when travel was
United and when it was a
question of time to move from

They were in certsin

ares, but in others a deplorable

1t was the best to be had in

The movement for good roads
as become movement of nation
ride momentum. 1t is a move
which will insure the coming
generation advantages that the
Romans left and which
re enjoyed by the people OF to-
