With good roads the farmer can de-
liver all his products direct to towns
within radius Of fifty or more miles
and though making more profit him
self, he is reducing the high cost Of
living.
The merchant is able to take ad-
vantage of new sources of supply, to
buy his stock under favorable condi-
tions, and give it on sale to his Gus
toners in less time than he could have
secured delivery by the slower and
costlier railway express and freight
service. With motortrucks he can then
re-deliver to his customers and give
better service over larger territory.
Automobile delivery will increase his
business, lessen his costs and increase
his profits. * "s.--

The Way of Women.

When the once-wealthy Mrs. Blank
parted from her husband and decided
to work for her living, she became a
housemaid. Her first employer was a
woman who, in other days, had been
one Of her own servants. 1t seemed a
queer thing to do, but 'the wretch al
ways worried me by giving me notice"
said the lady in reduced circumstances
viciously; "she must have done it a
half dozen times. SO l took the posi-
tion-to give her notice, the wretch !!
And did it, too,1 after the first week"

HAUL ON UNEMPLOYED ROADS
Average Cost Per Ton Mile Estimated
at 22.7 cents-Average Haul
Was 90 Miles.

In 1905 the bureau of statistics Of
the department of agriculture deduced
an average cost per ton mile Of 22.7
cents based upon replies from In
quities sent to about 2,S0O county
correspondents. The average haul re-
ported was 9.4 miles. Since at this
time less than per cent of the roads
in this country were improved, these
figures Indicate the average cost Of

One WAY To Do It

"A resident of Irvine avenue COM
planned to the city council that
teams, automobiles and so forth were
using the sidewalk in front of his
property because the city has so far
failed to fill in mudhole in the
street. Knowing that the city is lack
ing funds with which to repair the
city streets, and knowing that there
is an ordinance which permits fine
of $40 being imposed on persons driv-
ing wagons or automobiles on side
walk, we suggest that policeman be
stationed near the mud-hole, dressed
in plain clothes so no one will know
him, and then arrest those who are
acting contrary to the ordinance.
This could be continued until the city
has received enough money in fines
to pay for the repair of the street.
