ROAD BUILDING IN VERMONT

Montpelier is to have another Stat,
building, TO house vast amount Of
road building material loaned by the
trucks, tractors, rollers, sprinklers
mixers, hosting engines, steel for re-
enforcement purposes, scrapers, gaso
line engines, tents, steel cable. suction
dredge to be used in sand loading, as
well as several carloads of parts fol
the motor trucks, derricks, pumps and
other machinery. This material, val.
ued at 100000, is to be used in con.
structing highways The State pays
the freight and must see that the
stuff is properly protected.
The next question is, when this
100000 worth of machinery, etc, is
safely housed in the $4,000 building
what is to be done with it? Road
building in Vermont, as all know, has
hitherto been carried on in sort of a
primitive way, mostly by "scraper'
and a drag" with the farmers here
and there hauling on few loads Of
gravel, more frequently the grass,
stones, rubbish, ETC., being dug up out
of the gutter and spread on the middle
Of the road, causing profanity on the
part of drivers. From this sort of
road making" to the kind that goes
with the outfit mentioned above is a
long way. Is the Vermont highway
Office equipped to get
the best results with the least outlay
when it is called on to do the work.
Beyond doubt, this national road
building plan whereby the Federal and
State authorities cooperate is getting
to be big thing We learn from
government bulletin that II projects
in Pennsylvania will cost $4,607 OPS,
for which the Federal aid is $685.
997 Oklahoma has one estimated 10
cost S1271 ,555, for which $1,000
Federal aid is allowed The cost per
mile as given on some Of this work
would seem prohibitive in Vermont,

the Grand Canyon of Arizona, Colora-
do Springs, Denver, Chicago, Buffalo,
Albany and on his return to Califor-
MIA intends seeing New York, Wash
ington, Ogden, Salt Lake City, the
Royal Gorge and several other places
before sailing for home the latter part
of this month. Mr.. Kelley is very en-
thusiastic over the United States, this
being his first visit here. His father,
Joseph Kelley, may be remembered by
some of the older residents of Dandy. |
Mr.. Kelley is a cousin of Mrs. ]. M.
Griffith of East Dorset, Mrs. Estelle

ADVERTISING AND PRICES

Newspaper advertisements are ex.
cellent agents making for thrift. econ
omy and wealth. They are home saw
ings banks, handy bankbooks and not
infrequently proofs against family
Jars and divorces. Next to the Bible
they are the most important house
hold guides ever set up.
A good advertisement is proof of
the power of suggestion and the psy-
Geological potency of printers ink
mixed with brains. As magnet at
tracts the needle so a newspaper ad-
vertisement attracts the reader and
draws the crowd. Suggestion creates
want and want creates purchasers.
There is direct connection between
the suggestion and the purchase. The
extent of the purchase is in direct ra-
ito to the power of the suggestion.
Newspaper advertisements are for
the benefit of the purchaser more than
for the benefit of the advertiser. This
may sound strange, but it is true.
That the public hitherto has not real
lied it is due to the fact that most
persons have looked at an advertise
ment as they look at dry goods and
articles of food. The advertisement
is not the article but the idea behind
it, the guideboard that leads to it, the
