C, April 18.?A gold medal to the school boy or girl be tween the ages of 10 to ir> who writes the best composition, not to exceed S00 words, on the repair and main tenance of earth roads, is to be awarded by Logan Waller Page, Direc tor. OIllCO of Public Heads, United States Department of Agriculture. Washington, D. C. AH compositions must bo submitted to Mr. Page before May 1.".. 19T3, and tho medal will be awarded as soon thereafter as the compositions can be graded. The composition may be based on knowl edge gained from books or other BOUt'COS, but no quotations should he made. After many years' experience In dealing with public road situation of the country. it is Mr. Page's belief j that ignorance on the BUbjecl of re pair and maintenance of roads is as much the cause of their bad condi tion as any other one factor. It Is expected that the competition will bring about a better understanding of tho subject of repair and maintenance in the rural districts. Many children living in the rural districts have experienced the disad vantages of roads mndo Impassable through :> lack of proper maintenance and it is expected that their interest in the Bad roads have prevented many children from obtaining a proper edu cation and have even prevented doc tors from reaching the side of rural patients in time to save their lives. H Any chibl between the ngCS mention ed, attending a country school, may compete. Only one side of the paper must be written on: each pngc should le numbered; the name. nge, and ad dress of the writer, and the mime and location of tlie school which he or she is attending must he plainly written at the top of the lirst page. The an nouncements of the compel it ion has been sent to the superintendents of sei oo's in the rural districts. No further Information can be obtained from the Ofllco of Public Roads. This announcement should he plain to ev eryone, and all children will thus start on a basis of equality. Coughs and Consumption. Coughs and colds, when neglected, always lead to serious trouble of the lungs. The wisest thing to do when you have a cold that troubles you Is to net a bottle of Dr. King's New Dis covery. You will get relief from the first dose, and finally tho cough will disappear. O. II. Drown, of Muscadine)' Ala., writes: "My wife was down in bed with an obstinate cough, and colds.
