Adverse Criticism of Pleasure Seems ?
to Have Been Biased on a Misapprehension.
Washington, August 4.?Currency
legislation laws discussed today at a ?
conference at the treasury department
between Secretary McAdoo and Chairmen
Owen and Glass, of the senate j
and house banking currency committees,
and a delegation of officers of
"I
the National Citizen's League for the j
promotion of a sound banking system. ^
later the league officers issued a
? i
statement saying they were "particularly
pleased at the attitude" of the
men who framed the administration
currency bill.
"Adverse criticism of the administration
efforts," the statement continued,
"seems to have been based rather
cn a misapprehension of intentions
and a fear of radical innovations than '
on facts warranted by the bill as now
it stands. The league is of the op:
ion that in regard to many avians
snap judgment has been rendered.
Those working to develop the measure
should be given encouragement, support
and assistance by bankers as
well as by business men."
The delegation suggested that there
would Be less difficulty in starting the
proposed new system with a smaller
number of federal reserve banks than
twelve, as contemplated. The fear of
some bankers that the reserve requirements
of the bill would prove burdensome
was discussed, and it was sug

Other Things He Might Learn.
Jnion Times.
Dr. J. W. Sharp, the veterinary surgeon,
is the owner of a dog which
s a wonder. The dog is ng.med Jo
and is a year old. He is a:i English
jointer and belongs to the Rip Rap
Dreed.
This dog of Dr. Sharp shows alnost
human understanding. He goes
:o bring out the medicine case when
:old there is a sick horse. He goes
:o the bank, goes and brings articles
isked for by his master. One of his
many stunts is stealing apples or
Dranges when told to do so. It is
worth your while to go see this wonierful
dog. Dr. Sharp takes pleasure
in having him show these smart
performances, nor will he charge any
admission fee. If you have never
seen this dog, go up to the Dr.'s office,
in front of the court house, and
he will take pleasure in showing you
his stunts.
The Effect of Good Roads.
Fort Mill Times.
The direct effect that changing bad
roads into good roads has upon land
values and the general economic wellfare
of a community is shown in
o/axr/ir'ol ll In C tro tinn ? fflthPT
? W cii WiiV/iVVV, D
ed by the national department of agriculture.
The department has just issued
a statement on the subject, based
upon the mass of information gathered
by the office of public roads,
which is making a special study of the
economic effect of road improvement
in the country. According to data
gathered where good roads replace
bad ones, the value of farm land
bordering on the roads increase to
such an extent that the cost of road
improvement is equalized, if not exceeded.
The seneral land values, |
showed marked advances, following
the improvement of roads.
Among the illustrations cited by
the department are the following:
In Lee county, Virginia, a farmer
owned 100 acres between Ben Hurr
and Jonesville whicfh .he offered to
sell for $1,800. In 190S this road was
improved and, although the farmer
opposed the improvement, he has
since refused $3,000 for his farm.

Along this same road a tract of 188
acres was supposed to have been sold
for $6,000. The purchaser refused
the contract, however, and the owner
threatened to sue him. After the road
improvement, and without any improvement
to the land, the same farm
was sold to the original purchaser
for $9,000. n
In Jackson county, Alabama the
people voted a bond issue of $250,000
for road improvement and improved
24 per cent, of the roads. The census
of 1900 gave the value of all farm
lands in Jackson county at $4.90 por
acre. The selling value at that time
was $6 to $15 per acre. The census
of 1910 places the value of all farm
lands in Jackson county at $9.79 per

acre and the selling price is now $15
to $25. Actual figures of increased
value following road improvement are
shown.
As the roads in no way effect soil
fertility or quality of the farm, advances
are due essentially to the decrease
in the cost of :hauling produce
to market or shipping point.
Farms are now regarded as plants for
the business of farming, and my reduction
in their profits through unnecessarily
heavy costs for hauling
on bad roads naturally reduces their
capitalization in values. With rer>nctc

The automobile also has begun to
be an important factor in increasing
rural values where good roads are
introduced.
Immigration is particularly marked
where road conditions are favorable,
in fact, the figures of the department
seem to indicate that good roads
indirectly increase the demand for
rural property; and the price of farm
land, like that of any commodity, is

Hilda returned presently, carrying
two slippers.
"Why, Hilda," exclaimed Mrs. Richards
impatiently, "these slippers are
