READ ADVERTISEMENTS

You can learn more from the
advertisements in your daily
newspaper than you could in
weeks spent in visiting stores,
shops and Offices.
If you did not read the adver-
tisements, you might go to a
store and come home again and
never learn about some new
goods in that store that would
interest you. But the store
keeper knows and he publishes
the news in an advertisement
for you to read.
If you did not read advertise
ments, you might go on pur-
chasing one article for years
when a new and better article
has come to take its place.

SUPERVISORS INSPECT ROADS.
Scott County Board vii, Travel Over
All Highways.

Davenport. Feb. I191A trip over
every road in the county is planned
by. the Scott county board of super
visors this spring as soon as the
ground permits travel on all high
ways. The trip will be made in sew
eral days If necessary and will be for
the purpose Of inspecting all roads
needing repairs and to judge those
requiring immediate attention.
1t is the plan of the supervisors to
have the county engineer accompany
the board members on their trip and
to make notes on every section Of
road. BY personal observation tha
supervisors will learn enough ebout
each road to judge afterwards which,
sections should have the first repairs.
1t is obvious that only a fraction of
the road work necessary can he car

funds available. 1t would be :mpos
