The suggestions anid most intel. ligent appeals for better road laws have come, in the main, from thc upper part of the state where thc conditions are most exacting, while the opposition has been um. ted) an<} hais come from the . lower section whero the roads are nuot suchi a serious problem as with us. One reason why a .good genera] law has failed is that there us such ai great diversity of opion as?)11 to how to euro the prest,Si1 trouble among the represent av'ives fromi thle sectioin where the remedy is most needed. W~o will never have a satisfac, tory adjust ment of t hes> diiYer ences, and therefore no0 decidled road imuproyemuen t, util legisla tion can be effeted that will a p ply in proportioni to tihe varyinig demands of every section i of the stato.

A good deal of practical know. ledge is constantly going untused by the majority of Pickens9 counta people simply bdcatuse they haya not yet arrived at the way of util izing it, Farmers in this part of the country know their own affairs bet, ter than those who do not under take to farm, but an observer wvh has seen the farming methods o: other farmers, and successfil ones too, is capable' of telling a few gen, eral truths which, if applied, would work a revoiution in farmirg, even in Plokens coun67, ' )eopl) l'alj't ged 1owl to business, algricilturally l' pe'3iaking, like tlhey Oltllt, and want...
