Over W. D. CampbelIs Wire

was steady at small advance during the greater part of the session today, but after the noon hour was inclined to sag under scattered liquidation. Fresh buying was small In volume with business restricted by the holi- day feeling. The main feature of the day was the marking up Of spots heer by 12 points to soc for middling, the high est price quoted in this market In over half a century. In the early afternoon, January traded at 29.2Sc at it's lowest. We consider 1t unsafe to sell contracts at such discounts After an irregu- lar opening with small gains on some others, the market moved up to net strength of very favorable reports from the spot markets of the south For awhile the market held steady but gradually the demand let up and offer- ings increased until the trading months were 2 to 5 points under the close of yesterday Recessions like these and even much wider ones are to be ex- pected right now and then, and we ad- wise our clients to buy on them. for there are no signs of increased offer- ings in the spot market, even with the minimum price set by spot holders at tained, while. on the other hand, there is every indication that the spot de- mand will continue for monts to come for there are yet buyers who hold off from filling their wants as long as possible in the vain hope of seeing reaction from the advance.-Shepard & Gluck.

H ROADS OF 1917.

It will be but a short time now until the rigors
and storms Of winter will be past and the prob
lens of a new year will be before US for solution.
One Of the most important Of these problems
will be, "What Of our country roads in 1912"
The year 1916 witnessed the greatest impetus
to road building that has ever been known in our
history. Government, state, county and mum
cipality all awoke and attacked the problem with
yigor. and the results in many instances were
most gratifying.
But there was, the past year, another element
in the solution Of the good road problem that
heretofore had been l~acking-that Of community
cooperation. In many parts of the country the
importunities of the good roads advocates had
their effect, and the PEOPLE awoke to the live
fact that the roads were THEIR roads, and that
THEY were individually responsible for the main
tenance. And this was just the added force need
ed to give to the movement an impetus that moth
ing could stop.
It is this feature of community co-opera-
ton that must be fostered if our roads are to be
made what we would have them. Each and every
citizen must be fully aroused to HIS responsible
ity-not merely to pay his taxes and give his few
days work each year, but to shoulder his full share
Of responsibility and never let up until every road
in his community is a GOOD road.
Many communities have worked up q senti-
ment that each and every citizen shall give one
day each month to voluntary labor OF, the roads.
This plan is an auxiliary to all other road working
facilities. And the plan as carried out in these
communities has worked splendid results in the
improvement Of the highways
If all communities will organize on this plan,
work it up to a maximum of efficiency, and keep
the enthusiasm at white heat, it will be only a
short while until they awake to the fact that
their road problem has been solved.
