IMPROVEMENTS OF RURAL
HOMES GOOD INVESTMENT

Everybody who is anybody around
Julesburg is ready to boost town i'm
provement- land it is good thing to
do, too. But why not advocate country
improvement also? The farmer or
stock raiser is the backbone of every
community, for without him there
would be no cities or towns, nothing
to eat or wear, nothing to do but do
nothing He needs better roads, better
school facilities for his children; he
needs to be more in contact with his
commendable, but let's boost the rural
districts, too, and make our act doubly
commendable. The columns of this
paper are open to any citizen who has
a plan or suggestion to offer for the
good this town and countryside.
Many people have splendid ideas in
their heads. but are timid about let
ting them out. They should not be
backward in this respect. The people
need those ideas for development, for
it is an establishment street talk or
home dreams The people will listen if
you will make a noise. And you can
make a noise through the columns OF
this paper any time you want to put
your thoughts in writing.
