It Is an interesting statement that Is made by Secretary Wilson of the ad vanced work of the Department of Agriculture in its investigation of seeds adapted to the wide variations of climate and soil in the United States. These variations find their counterparts In other regions of the world, where particular products, through long cultivation. have beer brought to a high degree of develop ment.

Sound to Have Good Roads. tf Ohio does not have good roads it will not be because those who are at the head of the Ohio Division,L. A.W., affairs are lacking in energetic meth ods and never-say-die qualifications. t They are determined to give the Back eye State proper highways if such a c thing is possible-and it is possible- I all that is needed is that the wheel men ot Ohio band together under the mantle of the League of American Wheelmen, who have declared war on "bad roads." There will be no sign ing of a peace protocol until every pub. lic highway in Ohio is in a fit condi tion to be used by all man and woman kind, whether on foot, horseback ox awheel.-Tiffin (Ohio) Advertiser. Good Roads and Business. \ The value of good roads is seen in any of the trade reports, which state th"' the delivery of produce was re Ltaed by the bad condition of the higha\s On this account many farmer were unable to sell their good when t prices were at their highest ebb, and C\onsequently they lost money. This condi'ion would not be were good roads built ith the energy that char acterizes the. undertaking of other public improv ments, many of them not half as imp. rtant in their nature. It is impossible XD estimate the finan cial loss to farmer. and business men resulting from bad oads. The money thus lost is expendeol. in improving the public highways wou be a profitable investment. A Basis From Which ou -to Judse. There is no better basis' upon whicb to estimate the civilization, or, rather the material advancement, t%'f a peo ple than the prevalence of good road. among them. They form th' local arteries of trade, reaching out ro. oun .ain heads from which the water 9 0 trade are gathered to form the gr ai treams and oceans of commere. I Good roads are good taxpayers, be Iause they relieve the farmers and tradesmen of the country of their heaviest burden, for it is well known that one of the most constant, most = roublesome, most wearying of all the taxes they pay is the transportation ol their products to market over bad toads. Prosperous communities, therefore, are made by good roads, na, in turn, good roads are an index to the prosperity of the community. - .-J. B. Killebrew, in Southern States Sagazine. Business and Sentimen~ft. - .oene,~ who has given the subject e lose thought can doubt sthe moral and sentimental value of goodreadE. The successful maintenance of sch'ools and ~hurches and the spreading of 'hea 1 ood infigiences is directly dependent e "upon the character of the nighways. - The social life of the country is quick d- sned or suppresse# as the roads be r ome good or bad"' uth of the le country 1eavesX -~ ithe'rEason t impaessa Sthat ~o Istatistical way.o the road question a~so all. The Sfollowing from the Bay City (Mich.} Tribune tells the story--the old, old story: "A farmer from Saginaw County brought in a load of grain yesterday o be ground. Although living much nearer Saginaw than this city. he stated that it was impossible for him o draw a load of grain to Saginaw on count of the condition of the roads. e came into the city without any -trouble on Bay County's stone roads, ad he is positive that the failure of Saginaw to get a sugar factory was de to the poor condition of the roads in that county. While in the city this farmer made arr-angements to rent twenty acres of land west of this city for $6 per acre, and he will grow ten acres of beets and ten acres of chicory. He will rent his farm near Saginaw for $2 an acre, there being a differ ence of S4 per acre in the relative values of the two farms on account of rood roads and a market for products in Bay County." The same conditions are tot efound in thousands of localities, and the peo ple are beginning to ask if there is ever to be any advancement along the lines of road-making and road keeping? _ _ _ _ 'The Crusade in Brief.

Everything that tends to make roads better helps the bicycle busi Good roads and adequate means of transportation and communication are among .the essentials to full enjoy met of country life.
