run over and bis clothes catching in
the machinery of the engine be was
dragged some fifty yards, the railroad

blood.
That-kHton Given Some Valuable
Polutn on the Subject.
(Correbpondence of The Ledger.)
Mr. Editor:—I have seen a great
deal said of late about making good
roads, but it seems that no one can
tell how to build them, and that is
what we need—a good plan by which
we can make good roads at the least
expense. With due respect to our
county officials,! must say they have
made a “big leap in the dark” by
buying the machinery for making
roads. The whole thing is a dead ex
pense except the rock crusher; it is
all right. But we don’t need those
large engines and dump wagons; they
are too heavy and slow for this coun
ty.
I will give you my idea how to
build a good road: In the first place,
get your rock; let the farmers of the
county haul it and put it in piles on
the side of the road; let as many as
can, haul to one place. If you can
get it in piles every two or two and a
half miles aoart that will be close
enough bo haul each way. You can
then take your crusher and go from
place to place and crush your rock.
Then let the county have four, or six
teams, if need be, and haul the rock
to the road. Prepare your roadbed at
least twelve feet wide, but fourteen
feet is better—thus giving room for
two wagons co pass. This is the way
to prepare your road-bed : Take your
road machine and scrape the dirt
each way from the center of the road
bed; cut it about six inches deep,
leaving the edges square so as to hold
the rock. Then have the rock crushed
to or as near one size as possible and
put it on the bed you have prepared ;
then put your big roller on the rock
and press it smoothly. Then, if you
wish, you can put the dirt which you
scraped off on top of the rock, and
you have got the best and cheapest
road that you can make in this coun
try.
Well, I have built the road; but
some one will say you must have
your rock in two or three sizes, but it
is money spent for no good, with the
clay that we have in our country. It
is hard and will not sink with a bed
of small gravel on top of the clay,and
to go to the expense of putting large
rock at the bottom and then small
rock on top. is money speno for noth
ing. You can crush your rock from
the size of your fist down and you can
build a road that will last twenty
years with but very little repairs
Now, my friend, as to the exoense
of this road building: We can take
eight muies and wagons and build
more road on this plan in one month
than you can in two mouths with the
outfit the county now has I would
be willing to bind myself to bake the
contract for building more road in
one month with the same cumber of
hands and eight mules and four good
wagons, and haul my rock one mile,
than they have built in two months
with their road machinery. And I
will make a better road, for when I
get my road built it will he nice and
smooth, but the road built with their
large engines is torn all to pieces and
worn out before you get it done.
Home one may say that hauling
with wagons is too slow. Weil, let us
see. You can take tour wagons and
haul your rock one mile, and make
your road nine feet; that is the
width of the one the county is now
building, and you can put it one hun
dred feet in cue day after ihe rock
has been crushed, and if your
is a goad one you cun crush the rock
faster than four wagons can put it on
the road. If you have twelve convicts
you can run your crushci and wagons
all at the same time After you have
prepared your road-bed it will only
take one man on the road to spread
the rock; then you will have eleven
men to crush rock and load the
wagons. Then all you need is two
good men that understand the work
and you have the best, outfit that you
can get. But if you haven’t got a
man that understands the work, you
had better have none at all, for there
is no man who can superintend any
work unless he knows how to do it
himself.
Now, my friends, I have written
this hoping it will be of some benefit
to some one. I have given this sub-

Etta Jank, Sept. 15.—The hay
making and fodder pulling season is
getting pretty well over with until
we have more sunshine.
Uncle Billy Thompson, who is
minding the Bates mill on Gilky
creek, will go to the Dawkins mill on
Thickety creek next year. As a mil
ler Mr. Thompson is very popular.
Dr. Thos. B. Whitesides, of Blacks
burg, is the only man we have ever
heard to give an indisputable reason
why men become baldheaded. He
says it’s because their.hair comes out.
Mr. H. B. McDaniel’s children
have whooping cough.
We regret to hear of the death of
Mrs. Mattie Whitesides, which took
place at her home in York county
last Friday. She was buried at
Smyrna last Saturday. We have
known her from her childhood and a
more estimable, noble woman never
lived.
“None knew her but to love her.
None named her but to praise."
Her heart-broken husland and
family have our profoundest sym
pathies.
We had the pleasure last Sabbath
of attending preaching at the A. R.
Ftesbyterian church at Hickory
Grove, and heard a splendid sermon
from the pastor, Rev. J. L. Oites.
The text was Hebrews II, 24th, 25th
and 26th verses. Rev. Mr. Oates is
comparatively a young man, but yet
he is one among the leading minis
ters of his own or any other denomi
nation. He will hold a communion
at Smyrna next Sabbath, 20th inst.
Preaching will begin on next Thurs
day, 17th inst. Those who attend
this series of meetings will hear good
preaching. A great many of our best
Cherokee county people are members
at Smyrna.
Mrs. James Brannon died last Sat
urday night and was buried at Salem
last Sabbath evening. The funeral
service was conducted by Rev. J. L.
Oates
Mrs. 0. W. Whisonant is, we regret
to say, not enjoying good health this
year. Her daughter, Miss Mary Mc
Culloch, is at home with her now.
Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Webber have
just returned from a visit to friends
at Lockhart Shoals, where they had a
very pleasant time. Mrs. Webber
has been in poor health for some
time, but we are glad to note that she
is tnucji improved and stood her trip
finely.
Rev. Mr. Hammett will begin a
meeting at Abingdon Creek church
next Friday night. It will continue
until Sabbath when the ordinance of
baptism will he administered to a
number of candidates who joined the
ue rues, church a month ago. Rev. Mr. Ham-

Heretofore these checks have been

.Stomach Trouble Caurtcft Heart Trouble,
Heart trouble is almost always
caused by stoqiach trouble. Tbe stom
ach fails to digest all the food, and
the residue ferments, forming excess
of gas which distends the walls of the
stomach, causing a depression on the
nerves and the arteries that lead to
the heart. This causes tbe heart to
palpitate or skip a beat occasionally,
or both, which is usually very alarm
ing,causing grave apprehensions. Ry-
dale’s Stomach Tablets will prevent
this trouble. They digest the food
and prevent gas from forming in the
stomach. If there is no gas in your
stomach your heart will not trouble
