SP* Stone Honda. The advantages to be derived from good stone roads are so manifold that all otlier material should be discarded where tough road stone is available for their construction and maintenance. But it Is greater economy to use earth or gravel than to go to the expense of macadamizing roads with too soft, too brittle, or rotten material. Many use this because it is more easily prepared. A road should never be surfaced with anything short of trap rock or serpentine. Inferior material may often be used with impunity for the first layer or foundation, but even this should be selected with great care. The evils resulting from improper construction of stone roads are even greater than those from the use of improper material. John L. Macadam never intended that a heterogeneous conglomeration of stone and mud should be called a macadam road. Neither did he intend that the name phould be applied to roads constructed of large and small stones mixed together and spread upon the surface. The surface of a road built in this manner is constantly disturbed by the larger stones, which work to the surface and which are knocked hither and MtVio* hr tvhpel of vehicles and the feet of animals. Such methods of construction can not be too severely condemned. L.-~" r? . ' Interest of Townl And Cities. The interest of towns and cities in good roads is easily demonstrated, and in many cases is already well understood by these communities. The whole people have equal rights on the country roads, and those living in the cities and towns have often greater need of them than the farmer, who at a pinch could live upon what he raises, while the cities raise nothing and could not live a day without the country roads. The farms of the United States comprise less than one-fourth of the total property of the country, yet that small fraction pays the whole cost of building roads. The injustice of this system, which we have Inherited from the old countries, but which was abolished there many years ago, is not yet fully appreciated by the farmers of this country, and the greatest difficulty now experienced in road improvement is in getting the farmers' consent to have this injustice wiped out, and in inducing them to accept the aid which the cities and towns are willing and anxious to give to the general improvement of the highways. The Surfacing of Road*. A great difference in roads lies In the nature of their surface. On a well made gravel road one horse can draw twice as much as he can on a well made earth road, while on a hard and smooth stone road he can pull four times as much. Consequently, where we have good gravel roads, Instead of earth ones, it Is possible to make one horse uo tno wor*. 01 mv, while on stone roads ono horse will do the work of four. On a level steel road ono horso can do the work of twenty or more horses over a level common road. After a road has been properly located, graded and drained, the important qualities of hardness and smoothness should by all means bo secured. The various surfaces for good country roads will bo considered In the following order: Earth, gravel and stone. Toll Road* For Motor Cars, Perhaps the only way in which automoblllsts will got good roads as speedways for themselves alone may bo by a revival of the old toll road system which prevailed in New Eng laml In former generations. It Is now found In Indiana and a few Western States, and quite frequently In the South. Such roads are constructed by prlrate Interests, which demand varying dividends In the manner of any in* vestment If the sntomoblllsts are willing to pay toll toward an automobile road this will be their privilege. Any road that the government may build will he for common use and would probably be monopolised by me farmers, whe still look askance at the automoblhst?Boston Advertiser. A Conrlndog^Demonitrirtloo.

Mean Civilization and Eeononty. There is civilization, enlightenment and economy In good roads. Good roads Jead to prompt and steady attendance upon church services, sehool room duties, neighborly intercourse and social advancement. Bad roads lead to profanity, worry, trials and tribulation* and the loss of teams, vehicles, patience, opportunities for good markets and lots of time. A Fapntar Qae?Uon.
