A man who has children wants
them to live easier; have more of
the luxuries of life; be surrounded
by a better environment than he
himself mas had, thus causing
them to grow mp better men and
women. If he is a thinking man
and lives on a farm he will try to
bring his farm up to high state
of cultivation. He will care tor
his orchards; keep the house and
barn in the best condition posi-
bic, thus making improvements
that cannot be easily wasted; be-
ing such thatthey will encourage
his children to be industrious
and economical, to stay on the
farm and not go away among
strangers and for bad be influ-
ence. Good roads are of the ut.
most importance for their well
fare and contentment. If you,

you with a mud hole IN front of
it reaching completely across
the street and people had torn
down the yard fence and were
walking through the yard to keep

would hesitate to offer a fair

 The private car he travels in is a wondrous thing. At one end is tiny kitchen with all sorts of electric grilis and ovens presided over by the neat Jap. Then comes the "living room,' with rose colored silk cur tains at the little windows, a lamp with shade to match on the reading table, and lots of magazines and books. Along both walls run cushioned seats, and a few comfort able chairs complete the main fu-- nishings.
 MT. Herron's office opens out of this-a stern affair with desk, book shelves, stationery cabinets and files, typeWriting machine on the seCre- tary's table, and all the necessares of well-equpped business sanctum.
 There is a costliness about every thing-a look of silverplate, rosewood and moroccan leather-that quite ex- cites me. The master of this moving palace of industry appears never to consider the price of anything. The world is at his command, apparently, and he takes everything for granted
 Until this afternoon he took me for granted-as though l were an under study who had been kept for just this emergency, the illness of his secre- tary. Suddenly he looked up from his papers, studied me attentively and remarked:
 You know, you do very well, Miss Varick-not half bad"
 Thanks" I smiled. I've had lot of experience. I should know good work by now, and I always did have a knack for spelling"
 "Yes. But I don't mean that. You're easy to look at besides. I was thinking more of that part of it."
 I kept my eyes on the notebook beside my machine and made no re- ply. He didn't seem to expect any.

1t is estimated that $l3S,000,000 has
been expended this year in the United
States for hard-surfaced roadways, but
Thomas II. Macdonald, chief of the
bureau of public roads of the depart
ment of agriculture, states that $633,-
100000 will be available next year for
this work This is about four times as
much as has been available in any pre-
vious year and indicates the Importance
of road construction in this country
There may be some question whether
the country will be able to utilize such
large amount in one season S work on
the highways. 1t will call for an i'm

Dor and there is some question whether
or not they will be available. But il is
evident that the country is going over
the top in road construction and i'm

What, Only rs Cents?
{ Rutland News. }

1t has been taken for granted gem
orally that prices of produce in the
smaller Vermont towns were lower than
they were in Rutland. This has been
frequently asserted It does not al
ways seem to be true, however For in
stance, eggs of the strictly fresh gath
cred variety at the present time in some
small Addison county towns are selling
for 90 cents a dozen. while in Rutland
the price has been - cents a dozen
Another peculiar thing is that in small
towns close to each other the. price
varies widely. Somebody is profteer-
ing-and it is hoped the producers are
getting their share.
