Souvenir William Harrison Taylor, in perfecting the list of the living state officials and members and officials of tions to the general assembly centen- nial celebration May are to be sent, is obtaining considerable valuable his- torical date.

 Palmer Bill of Norwich began to be
 the compiler. MT. Bill was wide awake
 and popular At the bottom of the last page of the first number of Mr.

Florida Climate

Florida has probably the most
even climate of all the states; the
mean annual temperature is 70.9.
Since 1880 only five cold waves
covered the peninsula. In sum-
mertime hot waves are practically
unknown and it is recorded fact
that sunstrokes are entirely I'M
known in Florida.
Many people have the idea that
Florida is unbearable in summer
months; as a matter of fact, Flor
ida climate is milder in summer
than in many of the northern sum-
mer resorts. The explanation for
this is that the Atlantic on one
side and the Gulf waters on the
other side of the peninsula act as
giant regulators and ocean or gulf
breezes make the summer days
and nights delightfully."- pleasant,
thanks to their cooling effect.
Florida is located south of the
storm tracks which move from
west to east across the states dur
ling the winter months. On this
account the number of days when
the sun shines is very great. 1t is
known fact that the newspapers
of the well-known tourist town of
ST. Petersburg are given free any
day when the sun does not show
its rays. And the newspapers
have not lost very much money on
this bet.
Severe droughts are not CON-
mon in Florida. The dry season
takes its course in winter. The
wettest part of the year are the
summer months. Between July
and September we have refresh
ing showers practically every af- !
ternoon, lasting but a short time, |
with a deliciously cooling effect. |
The normal rainfall varies from
IS inches at Key West to 90 inches
on the northwest coast.-Florida /

PAVING COUNTRY ROADS

In California there are thousands Of
miles Of paved country roads, and nei-
Their the motorists nor the man with a
truck for hauling his produce to mar
ket ever has a moments worry owe
the weather. In South Dakota there
are many miles OF extremely rotten
roads and the men who tour and haul
are continually worrying over wealth
err conditions
California estimates that its paved
roads can be built for about 500 a
mile. Estimates in South Dakota run
higher, but unless they run a great
deal higher they still would be a good
investment for this state. The fact
OF the matter Is that sooner or later
this state will be compelled TO pave
country roads. The advent OF the
truck for farm work necessitates the
Improvement.
Assuming that roads could be paved
In this section for the California price,
Beadle county could have a paved road
from the east to the west and from
the south to the north lines al a cost
OF less than a million dollars. Good
feeders to the lines of paved road then
could be built by crawling whatever
additional roads necessary, and farm
ers from practically every part of the
county could get to market in prac-
tically any kind OF weather.
AS long as paved roads must come
sooner or later. The Huronite believes
the wise thing to do is get al them
at once and not waste time and money
Ia trying to make dirt roads where IL
cannot be denied dirt roads are not
adequate to the requirements Paved
roads probably will cost twice what

they do In California, but ven II they
do they will be within this couhty's
g a and. moreover. in the long run
will prove the best Improvement, the
work OF upkeep year by year being
very much less costly than rebuilding
dirt roads after every spring thaw.
The best Of road building is none
too good for this county, II will be a
good investment in the ong run, and
the county can afford 1t, Therefore
let Beadle county set as it's goal per-
