I CAROLINA, j i SOUTH CAROLINA < i ?? ] TOO LATE. * ? Dillon County Got the Appro- J priation and Gone}. < The road from Clinton to Columbia * is the choice ot" mauy Newberry and * Richlaud county people who have studied the conditions imposed by the Postmaster General in his communicatio.n relative to the expenditure of $30,000 on improving and maintaining a fifty mile road in South Carolina. One of the conditions is that the distance most be covered by rural routes and another is that the State or local subdivisions arrange to set aside ?20.300 to be added to the government's $10,000. The matter was called to the attention of the Governor, says the Columbia Evening Record, by the PostmasI'or flonorftl q narL rvf < Vip Ipfctpr f>nn. ' vyx V4VUVAMI) W V- VMV ? fcaining this paragraph is as follows: "If you will cause to be selected in your State a saitable road about fifty miles long over the entire length of which there is delivery of mail by rural carriers and will arrange to have $20,000 raised by the State, or local subdivisions thereof, in accordance with the requirements of the law, the government will set aside $10,000 additional from the appropriation granted by Congress and will expend the snm of $30,000 thus provided, so much of it as seems wise, for the improvement and maintenaceof the road sheeted.'' The Governor is given authority to name the road the conditions being that it is a road on which rural mail is delivered. The Newberry Herald and News ^ contains the following editorial endorse < ment of the proposed road: t "We would like to suggest the road j from Clinton to Colombia, which is little more than 50 miles. l*his road i is on a ridge all the way practically, and is a mail delivery road. It has a 1 number of towns on it and goes through a prosperous farming section. i "The road between Ohapin and Lit- : < tie Mountain oeedajo b$ relocated so _ y as to avoid going*directly up and down , the hills between these two points. . "From Uttle Mountain to Prosperi- : t-v flrmotnrionr KaacrfA hoa *li?Aadv rmt. I * the road in fairly good condition ( bat in order to keep it so, it mast have attention. From Prosperity to Newberry there is now a fairly good road, and from Newberry to Kinards the road is in good condition, with the exception of holes, and these conld be remedied by the split log drag, and with very little time and labor." From the above statement as to the conditions in Newberry county, bat little work will have to be done. At the office of Supervisor Mailer it was learned that the roads now under improvement traverses the Dutch Fork from the Broad river bridge to the 15 mile post. The finishing touches are now being pat on and the link of four miles from the 15 mile post and Spring Hill will be put in shape as a part of the proposed 50 mile government road. The only movement that will be necessary is the obtaining of pledges to pay the $20,000 as the part of the *30,000 that must be met by the owners of the property abutting on the proposed model road. Continuing the estimate the amount may be divided among property owners on a basis of $400 a mile. The goverment would spend $200 a mile wffiich would build and maintain a highway that would prove a practical example of modern road making methods and stimulate activity in thn important i feature of constructive efforts. j Make No Change. 1 Hon.

XVI :rops, better roads, happier homes, more prosperous people, and a richer and better nation. That is to say, :he I H C Service Bureau proposes to help do for all the states and for Canada what Holden has done for Iowa. After considering many offers, and after an investigation of the company and its works, Professor Perry G. Hclden has entered the service of the [ H C Service Bureau at Chicago. Professor Holden is known wherever real agriculture is known. His Evhole life is one of service. He orignated the idea cf carrying informa:ion direct U. farmers. He is the fallen oi the demonstration train, short school courses, the corn show, county PROF. PERRY G. HOLDEN. lemon straticn farms, and the National 3oni Exposition. As head of the exensfon department of Iowa State Colege of Agriculture he did a work vhlch, Senator Cummins says, up to he present time has increased the wealth of Iowa $50,000,000. The object of the I H C Serrlce Bu eau is the promotion of agricultural ducation, and a co-operation which will tend to rai$e the whole tone of iommerclal, industrial and farm life. Since agriculture is the basis of prOS^r??* and nporrpaa *?*tttr?T?v fjirim troblems claim first attention. The iim s higher efficiency, both on and off he farm. To do a big work a big organisation s necessary. Not only the bigness. jot the perfection of the International jrganization as well appealed to Pro'essor Holden. The big general agencies, scattered all over the United 3tates and Canada: the salesmen, ravelers and expert machine men: he 40.000 dealers?every one. so far is possible, is to he made an apostle >f better farming. For years the International Ilarrester Company has realized the importance of service. It has spent milions of dollars in the perfection of lajor-saving machines, and now the company is going in for direct son ice ?direct to the farmers, and direct to he farmers' children, that the men md women of tomorrow may he more apable and so more prosperous thi.n ,he men and women of today. It is no longer a theory that if we ire to get. the most out of life we nust raise more per acre. "Intensive farming" is in the air. It is the jattle cry of p^aco and plenty. But aising more is the result of mind, lot muscle. We must know. And lot only that, we must. .Know we inow, and know why we know. We nust know good seed from bad. right ultivatjon from wrong. ana tne ways ind wlierefors of climate?, soils, 'ruits. cattle. horses. poultry, and so orth. For these things the bureau wns established. But the bureau and ?rofessor Ifolden see more than an iverago increase of a few bushels. They see a time coming when fanners sill raise twice as many bushels of ?orn. wheat and oat' to the acre, ind like yields of all other kinds of rarm products. They see a time when 'armers and farmers' wives and their children will think more and work ess. Every bushel raised means just 'hat much profit, and the profits of he farm promote commerce and inJustry. After a period of good work in Michigan agricultural college, better work if Illinois, and s great work at Iowa. Professor liolden now enters upon a sorld'a work.
