Commissioners. OIK DISFIGURED HIGHWAYS. Editor Dally Item: 1 crave a few more words upon the subject of our highways, and the de? struction of trees so ruthlessly mo? lest ed by all classes of our people. The farmer, all too ready to plough every foot of land skirting his fields is not alone responsible lor our pitifully disfigured and inconvenient roads, but also those who officially set the width and bounds by the ditches and drains. There are other harmful results that follow the destruction of "hedge? rows and avenues, many a gulch on a sloping hillside is protected from gulches by a strip of wooded growth, when this natural bulwark is cut down an ugly wash begins, bearing away with heavy rain, much of the farm? er's precious soil and fertilizer. Birds too are fond, of nesting in these hedge rows. Here they select a family tree and cradle their nest? lings, destroying thousands of insects that damage the growing crops. ('an we not now, in ohr State and in our county, make a determined ef? fort to correct these mistakes? With one hand we exploit our ad? vantages of soil and climate to induce desirable immigration, with the other hand we disfigure and destroy much that would attract practical, progres? sive, appreciative minds.
