ABOUT PAVING

Rome was not built In a day.
Neither will Deming be paved In q
day, nor will II all be paved In year
perhaps; but start can he made ac
cording 10 the means at hand. Work
should start in the downtown district
Silver avenue 10 the station and
around the principal business blocks
would do very nicely The property N
this district Is valuable and able "a
stand the tax, and II ought to be made
to carry this Improvement.
Contrary to general belief. IL Is not
necessary TO get the consent of any
certain number of property owners 10
the project; the board Of trustees can
order IL done just the same as the
laying OF sidewalk. However, this is
not the plan TO he advised unless there
Is no hope whatever of getting the
principal property owners to initiate
the matter. Many large property own
ers are now favorable to paving; sew
eral can be won by reasoning with
them; unfortunately there are those
who will never consent to spend the
funds necessary. In the end the work
will have to be ordered by the board
of trustees, acting upon the initiative
of public sentiment.
1t has been urged that materials are
very high. True; but so Is everything
else and 1t is not legitimate excuse,
and leaving the matter to future in
definite and uncertain. There are
those. no doubt, who have not the
funds; but II is not likely that there
will ever come time when all will
have the funds The Graphic reiterates
that the property is good for II and

 The principal topic in town is the question of the disputed right of way at the junction of the old turnpike road and the church road. The owner of the prop erty puts up a fence daily and the se-- lectmen take it down and open the drive way. Public sentiment is against the closing of this short piece of road, as it makes dangerous turn a little further along the road. Tuesday about p. m Selectman Fred Dawley has removed the obstruction to the driveway when an au- tomobile with several passengers took the old driveway, and if the obstruction had been there the lives of the passengers would have been endangered.

meat prices went up from 5 to 25 per

price boost was in the cheaper cuts
of veal. Cheapest beef Common

lamb increased a dollar a hundred
