OPTIMISTIC OUTLOOK FOR EARLY
ADJUSTMENT OF DIFFICULT.
TIES IN IRELAND.
PREDICTIONS OF PEACE
SITUATION HAS UNDERGONE BIG
CHANGE FOR IRISH
TROUBLE.

been expressed Dy observers tndL the
Irish situation had undergone change
for the better since March II. A month
ago Dublin derided the peace prophets,
but predictions that there will be a
settlement are universal. Lloyd's de-
clined to accept bets offered that peace
will be brought about before August.
Outwardly, conditions have not i'm
proved. There has been no cessation
of warfare, and the trouble is spread
ing to Ulster.
Factors serving to stimulate the op-
timistic view are the admission of
Premier Lloyd George of the govern
ment's failure to solve the Irish prob
lem; the appointment of a Catholic
viceroy; De Valera's latest pronounce
ments, which are interpreted as show
ing the willingness of the Sim Fein
for what is deemed a reasonable COM
promise; England's internal troubles;
reputation of the partition act by
southern Ireland; the admitted diff
Guilty of establishing the Ulster Parlia-
ment; the significance attached in Ire
land to the report of the American
committee of one hundred; President
Hardings reported Endorsement of the
American relief committees campaign,
| and a rumor that Senator Kenyon is
coming as President Hardings repre-
sentative to investigate.
Government circles do not conceal
their anxiety over the prospect that
the Sim Fein will win most of the
seats in the southern parliament. With
the Nationalists and Sim Feiners CO.
| operating in the north, the task of
establishing the Ulster parliament is
recognized as fraught with political
hazards.
1t is confidently asserted that the
Sim Fein would be willing TO nego-
tiate peace on the basis of a status
of full dominion.

the goat finds small place in Ameri-

Of Europe, stabbed comfortably in any,

Though dwellers in fiat buildings
might encounter difficulties in raising
goats, others who have no facilities
to finance and operate a COW might
easily undertake goat culture. The
goat is non-tuberttilar and safe and
the milk excels as food. The cream
is emulsffied and does not rise to the

MATERIAL FOR ROAD MAKING
Careful Study Of Amount and charae-
ter of Traffic Is First Important
Essential.

Professor House of the Colorado Ag-
ricultural college is one of the best
known engineers in Colorado. He has
been head of the civil engineer depart
ment at that college for several years
and has always been in close contact
with the affairs of the state. In speak
ing about roads. Professor House
says:
"A great deal of agitation Is being
carried on at the present time, con-
corning the construction of concrete
roads for Colorado. That some Of our
roads should be paved in this way,
there is no question, but l think we
should carefully guard against over
doing the matter. In order to be jusi-
fable, road improvements must return
in economic and social benefits an
amount at least equal to the interest,
depreciation and maintenance, over
and above those of the old road.
ut is exactly the same as in ordi-
nary business. The amount that should
be invested in road Improvement Is
that sum which will give the largest
annual returns in benefits to the peo-
Pile of the community.
ut may be real economy to spend
$4,000 per mile for one road and only
$1,000 per mile for another, if the for
mer carries more than ten times the
service and costs just ten times as
much.

GOOD HIGHWAYS IN JAMAICA
island in British West Indies Is Awak-
ening to Realization OF
Improved Roads.

The island of Jamaica, in the Brit
ish West Indies. rich In natural re-
sources and active in trade, is awak-
ening to realization of the import
ance of good roads. The advent of
the automobile has had much to do
in the development of an agitation
which now promises valuable results.
The system of modern highways
which 1t is proposed to build Will
mean the speedy development of parts
of the island now more or less neg
Iected because OF their practical in
accessibility. Completion of radial
system of good roads would undoubt-
edly be followed by a general adop-
ton of the motortruck for conveying
the products to the sea. The in
creased speed and efficiency thus ac-
quired would tend to promote larger
production, and thereby increase the
wealth Of this already Industrious is
land.

The unrestricted wholesale slaugh-

the proper time or in a proper man.

expensive undertakings go to show
how disastrous it may prove for man
to disturb the wonderful balance which
we see in our natural surroundings.
The beautiful birds with their song

TO our lawn and garden. For this
service we should not begrudge them
the small amount of berries they eat,
which indeed is small pay for the in
sects they destroy, and the good work
they perform.

Government by the People Restored

The keynote of the Harding inaugural address was
sounded in those words which declared the lnterpreta

fact that in order to be intelligent the will of the people
must be based upon full information, anayzed and dis
cssed in deliberate manner and when thus formed is
dependable In the opening paragraphs OF his address
Mr. Harding demonstrated his correct Interpretation
of such judgement of the people, for he stood steadfas
y behind the decisions registered at the polls last Novem
Der.
Particularly this true in his comments our att

issue is that he the Democratic canddae favors going

plainly stated issue the American people gave Mr. Hard

pressed after keeny contested campaign had given the
entire country full of information which to form de-
iberate intelligent dependable popular will.
Other issues decided by the election also very ap-
propratey summed up by the President, thus assuring
the nation that these respects so there is correct in
terpretation Of the will of the people, for he says:

GOOD ROADS BOOST PROFITS
Where Farmer Can Haul but One Bale
of Cotton on Poor Road, Man on
Good Roads Hauls Four.

The matter of opportunity in mar
keting is worthy of consideration. For
the sake of example, suppose that two
farmers living in separate counties,
but at equal distances from the cotton
market, learn by telephone that cotton
has advanced in price 81 bale. The
man living on a bad road can lmme-
diately haul one bale of cotton to
market. while the other can haul four
bales because he lives on good road.
The rise in price means profit of 81
to the one man and only 81 to his
