MAINTAIN THE ROADS.

Now that the war is over and the
restrictions which have been placed
on highway construction have been
lifted, the state and counties of Ten
nessee should resume their program
Of road construction. The war has
demonstrated the value of good roads
not only in the large industrial COM
munities and war ereas, but to the
rural communities. Never again shoud
the products of the farm be wasted
on the farm when there is such a
demand for them on the markets of
the world. In order that the farmer
may find a proper market for his
produce he should have an outlet to
the market L. all kinds of weather.
Good rural highways will furnish
this outlet, and it is only through
good highways that it may be OBJ
tanned.
The present tendencw in Tennessee
after a road is built, is to leave it
to the destruction of the weather
and the traffic in the hops that it will
in some way, continue to serve the
public. This is a fundamental error
AS soon as a new road is conctruct-
ed a proper system of maintenance
should be installed to insure it agains
deterioration and decay. Practically
all the counties have had the exper
ience Of seeing new road wear anc
crumble to pieces soon after it's con
struction. The only way that this
may be prevented is to begin caring
for the road as soon as it is construc
ed. A proper system of maintenance
will care for the earth roads in tn
state and will make them passabl
for light. traffic, at all times Of tn
year.
The University Of Tennessee give
a short course in highway engineer
ing each year. The course this yea
extends from Jan 6 to Feb. IA. In
formation may be obtained by wri
ting Dean Of Engineering, Universi
Ity of Tennessee, Knoxville, Tenn.

BRIDGE CONTRACT LET.

When Claiborne and Granger coun
ties Joined hands to build a steel
bridge across Clinch river on the
road leading from Cumberland Gap,
on the Virginia -- Kentucky border,
to Paint Rock, N. c., via Tazewell
and Morristown, they wrote an impor
tant and bright page in the history
of East Tennessee's development and
up-building.
The Commissioners appointed by
the two counties met in Tazewell on
December and canvassed the bids.
The contract was awarded to the
Champion Bridge Company Of Will
mington, Ohio, the price being $50,
10000 and the structure is to be COM
pleted by September l, 1919.
The new bridge will be located
the old Kincaid ferry, and its COM
pletion will close the last gap in
old Buffalo Trail" the main high
way from tn northwest to the At
lantic coast. Over this trail, in ane-
bellum days, the stages, wagons and
great droves Of live stock formed
perpetual stream, and our predic-
tion is that the building Of this bridge
will bring back to the Buffalo Trail"
it's old time activity. Claiborne

GUARANTEED WHEAT PRICE

Judging from a considerable num-
Der Of inquiries regarding purchase
Of the 1918 and 1919 wheat crops in

the following seems desirable:

prices for the 1918 wheat crop, ap-
plies to wheat harvested in the Uni
ted States during the year 1918 and
offered for sale before the first day
Of June 1919, to such agent and en-
ployee of the United States, or other
person as may be hereafter designa-
ted" at the principal primary mar
kets specified. The Food Administra-
CATION even though peace should be
ton Grain Corporation was designa.
ted June 21, 1918, to purchase the
1918 wheat crop and therefore con
tinue to exercise that duty and obli
signed prior to June 1, 1919. The Fooc
Control act provides that termina
ton Of the Act shall not affect an!
obligation accrued during its exis
ltence and the purchase Of the 1911
wheat crop is such an obligation.

NEAR EAST RELIEF.

During the week Of January 18th,
the people Of Tennessee will be called
upon to help save the lives Of mil
lions of starving men and women and
children in Western Asia. Only $50,
100000 is asked Of the entire nation,
and Tennessee is to give 100000,
one one-hundredth Of the amount for
the United States.
Rev. L. M. Ellis Of Rutledge, has
been designated as Chairman of
Granger County for this campaign
and this county has been allotted
$500 Of the ree-hundred-th thousand.
Four hundred thousand orphans are

these waits, the desolation caused by
the Turks, and the horrible agony
people of these Eastern Mediterrau-
can countries are undergoing for

for this drive, and Seth Seiders ia

the state organization have been open

taking this relief fund to the coun-
tries where it is so bodily needed, il
borne by private subscriptions and
the total sum Of $3O,OO0,0oO will moi

sary work Of raising it.
Even the salaries of the mission

Granger County News:
In campany with Mr.. H. r. Tate
paid my old home county a visit
few weeks ago and was much i'm
pressed with what remained of the
of the exhibits of the first Granger
County Fair, and | was told that it
was the purpose of our people to
continue these fairs from year to year
Just before leaving Rutledge Mr..
Walter Lowe informed Mr.. Tate and
myself that he and johnson Jones
had a talk recently at Knoxville and
agreed that it would be a mighty
good thing for Granger County to
have a "Home Coming Week" next
year, and we also agreed that this
would be a wise and proper thing
to do. We pledged both personal and
financial support to the movement
1t now appeals to me that tho
ond County Fair and "Home Coming
Week" should be at one and the
same time.
have spoken to Mr.. Joe Legg
about the proposed "Home Coming
Week." he being the other only
Granger County resident of Valdos-
ia, and he said we would go if we
had to walk.
Something definite and tangible
should be done about this matter
and the proposed event given pro-
per publicity, and it being something
of case of what is everybody's bus
mess is nobody's business, I have
decided, as a preliminary move, to
take the liberty, until a morea pc
feet organization can be formed and
in a more representative way, to
nominate the following executive
committee on "Home Coming Week
and cast the vote of Granger Coun-
ty for them, as follows: w. T. Lowe

A. T. Sawyers, DR.. C. M. Atk
