FARMERS FAVOR GOOD ROADS
Recognized as Greatest Economic Need
of Agricultural Communities in
Eastern States.

Good roads are the greatest eco
nomic need for agricultural commune
ties, This is the answer of 200 prom
inent farmers of the state of Maine to
questiOnnaires which asked them to
summarize urgent necessities to bring
their districts up to the desired eco
nomic standard.
The farmers who answered the ques-
tionnaires were selected as those best
fitted to answer the questions, and
they were asked to furnish a digest
of the situation in their respective COM
munities with reference to acreage,
crops, farm improvements, civic and
social conditions, etc.
The definitions of the greatest needs
covered a wide and interesting range.
The largest record of needs was good
roads, So emphasizing the urgent ne
cessity of adequate highways. There
were 45 who asked for more farm
laborers, a for cooperative buying
and selling, 35 for better school priv
ileges, 20 for more blueblooded stock,
% for manufacturing plants, 20 for
better marketing facilities, and q for
greater credit extensions by banks.

ROADS AS DIVIDEND PAYERS
Where Good Roads Enable Farmer to
Save One Hour Per Week He
Makes Big Gain in Year.

If a farmer saves an hour a week
by being enabled to use good roads
as opposed to bad roads, it would
mean 81 hours year; estimating the
use of man and team as being worth
Sc day, this means saving of $31.20
year.
Suppose his farm is assessed at
$4,000, and the additional tax levy
due to the issue of road bonds by the
county runs to 81 per thousand, which
would mean SO a year additional
taxes as against a saving of $500 on
time alone. This means that he is

MOTOR TRUCKS TO AID ROADS
Government to Give Army Equipment
Valued at $4s,o0o,ooo to State
Highway Departments.

More than $45,000,000 worth of mo-
tor trucks are about to be distributed
by the secretary of agriculture
through the bureau of public roads to
the state highway departments. These
trucks. have been declared surplus by
the war department and are being dis
tributed to the states under the pro-
visions Of section Z of the post office
appropriation bill. They must be used
by the states on roads constructed in
whole or in part by federal aid, for
which $200,000,000 in addition to the
former appropriation was given to the
states under the same bill. All that
the states must do to acquire the use
of these 10000 trucks, which range in
capacity from two to five tons, is to
pay the loading and freight charges.

LEECH AS WEATHER PROPHET
Those Familiar With Small Creatures
Habits Can ForeteI Changes
That Are at Hand.

An excellent weather prophet can
be made by placing a leech in a glass
jar of water.
If the weather is to continue fine
the leech lies mOtiOnless at the bot
tom of the jar, and rolled together
in a spiral form. If it is to rain,
either before or after noon, it will be
found to have crept up to the top of
its lodging where it will remain till
the weather is settled.
If we are to have wind, the poor
prisoner gallops through his limpid
habitation with amazing swiftness.
and seldom rests till it begins to blow
hard.
If a remarkable storm of thunder
and rain is to succeed, the leech, for
some days before, lodges almost con-
tinually without water, and gives it.

The latest arrivals in blouses are not
in the season, except in incOnspicuOus
details of making or trimming There
is no good reason why designers
should run after strange gods as
long as there is an insistent de-
mand for the styles now in vogue or
until some change in skirts opens the
way for a change in blouses. What
women are most concerned in is
knowledge of the merits Of materials
used in blouses and of the most prac-
teal and becoming styles for various
uses.
The most durable and at the same
time dainty blouses for daily wear are
made of fine cotton wolfe. 1t does not
seem possible that so sheer and fine
fabric could have such powers Of re-
sistance to wear and Tubing but the
fact remains that it will Outlast any
other. When made up with strong
cluny or fillet, or handkerchief laces,
one may depend upon wolfe blouse
for two years wear, some times more.
Tatting makes as fine finish as the
most fastidiOus taste can ask for
blOuses made of wolfe or other cottons.
Batiste is n softer material than
wolfe and gives good service. 1t is not
expected to last as long, and the
finer lingerie laces, val, cluny and fillet
are used with 1t. 1t is u beautiful

A later arrival in styles for after
noon frocks Is shown at the right Of
the picture and it foreshadows some
thing new for fall. This is a gown
made of shot taffeta silk, and it sug-
gests the "bustle dress" of two or
three years ago. One material and
cleverly managed drapery of it, are
the means at hand with which the
designer has succeeded in making an
interesting and very pleasing dress.
Bunchy drapery is caught at the right
side below the hip, with ribbon in long
loops and ends, Frills of lace set off
the neck and make pretty chemi-
settle, adding their daintiness to the
sleeves. This model, modified little
and made up in light-colored silks,
makes lovely evening dress. One of
these in blue taffeta shot with gray,

collar) that extends below the waist
line in front and forms a sash. This
