TenaCIng Demonstration

Last Thursday we tried out Martin" terracing ditching and road grading machine on MT Tom BoWles' farm White Rock township The machine puf- chased by MT. Bowles and MT. John Taft, at the cost of S75 %, did excellent work ana wlth the proper horsepower will pay for itself in one year.
 It IS to be hoped that many farmers will take the opportun- ity ot going there to see It work, and 1t may stimulate them to go do likewise as there IS not farm in North Franklin which does not need terracing.
 The question of keeping up roads during the next two years Is going to be a very hard one, as there IS no road tax voted on, and consequently no money avail able. but If we could have few Martin graders distributed over the county and the farmers themselves would be interested enongh in good roads to be wilI- ing to give a few days work tor the upkeep of same, the question would be to a great extent solved, and we would soon have roads that we cid not need to be ashamed of.
