presume most of the taxpayers
know the benefits to be derived from
a good road. There may be some
that do not realize. For those |
would like to quote the following
from my observation. Land values
do no where exist without the good
roads being there. 1t cost money to
build the Multnomah highway in
Oregon.
The roads in some parts of Cali
fornia too, were costly. That's
where you find alfalfa land at $500
per acre. Don't you think our land
is just as good and when really it
comes to hay it would make theirs
look sick in comparison. What put
Pershing to the front? Wasn't it
good roads and plenty of grit. I'M
agine Pershing going to the front by
way of the alkalies near here. That
would be great. l think not, wouldn't
it?
The man who said we have the
land, but we are way behind with
our roads is right, and whatever we
do let us build them and build them
good, as in that way cost of main
tananee will soon make up for the
extra cost of a good road.
l presume we all want to give
Bingham county as we'll as the state
a place on the map. So let us all
work for good roads, better towns
and communities and a better Idaho.

LIVESTOCK LOSSES
IN, NATIONAL FORESTS

An explanation of why the federal
government is expanding funds in
the control Of livestock diseases, In
the eradication of poisonous plants
from national forest ranges, and in
the determination Of predatory ami
mails turnout the western states, is
given In some statistics recently
compiled by the Ogden office of the
forest service. During the fiscal
year which ended June 80, 1918,
3,lS7 cattle and horses, worth $780,
600 and 40.228 sheep, worth 1929
900 were lost thru predatory ami
mails, disease, poisonous plants and
other miscellaneous causes within
the national forests of the inter-
mountain district. The fact that this
loss. amounting to three quarters of
million dollars in single year oc-
Cured upon grazing lands which are
admittedly superior to those COM
prising the open public ranges, gives
some conception of the hazards at
tending the production of livestock
In the west.
Predatory animals took the heavi-
est toll from the range flocks and
herds, killing l273 cattle and horses,
worth $13.650, and '21,S13 sheep,
worth $283.b69. The next most de-
structive agency was the poisonous
plant, which killed 2139 cattle and

THEY WANT TO KNOW

A good many people want to know
what is the use OF putting up $685.
600 for road building, when we have
so little to show for the $4,000 that
was expended last year for roads.
They ask If 1t is not likely the larger
sum will also be spent and still have
nothing to show for it.
Their point is well taken II II
were the intention to expend this
large sum grading earth roads and
dragging them with all sorts of out
fits in all sorts of weather, wet, dry,
dusty or whatever it might be the
| day the road man had some teams
he wanted to hire out o nroad work
regardless of whether they would
accomplish any good.
But that is not the plan: All the
plans for the expenditure of this
bond money contemplate the con-
struction Of roads with crown with
a wearing surface that will neither
blow away nor wash away nor yet
soak up and tramp down fiat. We
never vet have had enough money
to 90 ahead and equip for handling
the materials for browning roads,
nor have we ever adopted the sys-
tenn that would get the work done
by the new system.
It is as If merchant were. doing
business in tent and IT. took his
profits each year to mend the tent
and ight the dust and rain water
that found Its way into his goods.
He might better bond and build a
permanent shelter for his goods and
stop the loss and waste, and the dam
age on the goods.
1t Is as II a man were raising grain
and had not enough money to buy
a binder or header and went ahead
harvesting it with a mower, losing a
large percentage of the crop, and
having 1t sprout and grow the next
year, where he did not want It, and
yet not have enough of it to make
1t profitable to stand back and let
1t mature as volunteer grain. He
would simply make a failure of
farming, whereas, he might go in
debt, (bond) for the price of a
binder, stop the waste and begin
making money. =
1t is difficult to comprehend this
road bond question because it runs
into larger sums than most of us
are accustomed to deal with, but 1t
is feasible to build lasting roads, stop
the waste, get better service and
stop the waste and loss on roads,
cars, tires and time.

A SPELLING CONTEST

At the university of Minnesota re-
Gently spelling test was applied to
ninety students in the normal school,
Professor w. S. Mills, who conducted
the trial, submitted a list of ten
words. The best record was seven of
the ten words spelled correctly.
Next year the niety students who
were given the examination expect
to teach school. Since seven of the
words correctly spelled was the best
mark, it is inferred that many of
the other attempts fell below that.
The words selected were in, no
sense trick" words. They were
words in common use, and words
which are foun din almost every
column of every daily newspaper.

counted for loss of 1858 cattle and
horses, worth $1S,400 and sos sheep

including lightning, floods, boys,

Living as l do by an ungraded
county road, each day convinces me
more clearly of our need of good
roads.
Each community in the county has
rural center, to which good roads
would bring additional trade. In
crease in trade would keep more
money circulating at home and eco
nomic, educational and social facil-
tiles would gradually develop for
our benefit.
The transient travel thru our
county is not to be discounted. News
OF our good roads would encourage
new home seekers to try their luck
with us and assist them in winning
their way to success.

the heavy expense occasioned by
hauling over poor roads. Our own
produce would bring us higher pro-
fit thru increased marketing facil-
tiles and decrease in loss from de-
probation in the value of machinery
and live stock on poor roads. The
cut in garage bills and the saving of
time on good reads are valuable
items. The wrong of unmarketable
crops when the world needs food,
lies often at the door of bad roads.
The county business centers in
the banks at the county seat. Mis-
understandings often arise from
business transacted by mail. A good
road, permitting farmers to get in
touch with their bankers thruout
the year would do away, with many
delays and losses to depositor and
banker.
Then the explanation of the beaut-
les and resources Of our own home
county would be facilitated by good
roads. - rT
Leaving the economic value Of
good roads we ind the social value
even greater. Good roads would en-
rich our lives thru greater social
intercourse with our neighbors. Con-
tact with larger centsrs would per-
nit us to see and hear better enter
tainments. This would open up new
fields of thought and endeavor by
putting. us in touch with the cur
rent of world progress. No individ-
ual is improved without leaving
some mark upon the community.
lnasmuch as isolation breeds narrow
mindedness and bigotry, contact
the world develops broad mindedness
and humanitarianism. Good roads
lead US to better thoughts, more re-
taxation and enjoyment and finally
to better citizenship.
The education of our children is
seriously hindered by poor roads.
Their health is often endangered. To
build good roads would be to build
better future for our posterity.
AS country woman / have ap-
preached this from a country stand
point, keeping in mind the knowl-
edge that what benefits the farmer
benefits the city man in inverse
ratio, for one is dependent upon the
other. Perhaps the best good road
could do, would be to more closely
relate the lives of the two, develop
sympathy and harmony between
them and obliterate unnecessary and
unjust class prejudices.

Blackfoot, Idaho, April 2, 1919
Good roads are the greatest as
sets farming community can have
because they are economical, profit
able, indispensable. They enable the
farmer to deliver at the proper sea-
son his products with the minimum
of time and expense with either horse
or motor power and with the least
wear on either.
Tourists and homeseekers con-
slider roads with the development Of
country which either encourages
them to stay and invite their friends
t Ca good thing or to get out taking
a bad impression of the community
with them for they usually desire
thrifty looking places.
Good roads increase the value Of
the land near it as does a paved
street in the city, they induce the
younger folks to seriously consider
the farm as they rely principally on
modern conveniences for their flu
ture and good roads are modern
convenience which any progressive
community requires. Good roads
need less repair than bad ones, such
as we now have, thereby lessening
the taxes.
The states proposal to help build
good roads is proof enough to con-
vince one that we should maintain no
other kind where the traffic is great
est. Not only are the farmers bene-
fitted, but it makes all industry pay
better. Everyone receives better SER
vice, merchants, bankers, railroads,
lumber, electric and telephone COM
panies, in fact the only drawback
is in the building and this is soon
overcome by the many advantages.
Good roads are as essential to man
at this day and age as was the bow
and arrow to the red man.
