for the in sane at Matteawan has been disi AppealsrI This practically sweeps away his last hope for release f Farmers and Good Roads A Hopkinsville County farmer tells the Madisonvillc Hustler that he would be willing to pay as much as 20 or 30a year for jrood roads He feels that im proved thoroughfares would be worth more than that to himI duel they would Ho rightly says that the farmers are the ones that should be the most active in pressing the matter because they wouldreap the benefits Good roads it is true would benefit the farmer immensely but the benefits do not stop with any one class Under a systematic plan of improvement there are very few farmers who would have to pay as much as 20 or 30 a year but where is there a sensible farmer living on a poorly main tainied dirt road who cannot figure out that he is llosing S20 or 30 a year or more by reason of the lack of rood roads It is a simple proposition in addition which does not renuire the services of a math amatical expert It can be dem onstrated with a piece of charcoal on the barn door or with the stub of u pencil on a cypress shingle The farmer more than anybody else perhaps needs good roads Doubtless he loses more money than anyone by reason of bad roads but he has no monopoly in that loss The business man at the country town loses whether he be merchant banker butcher baker or candlestick maker Every body pays in some way a tax for- bad roads in a county where there is indifference to improvement In the nature of things the farmer pays the heft of it and he ought to be right at the forefront of every

pauper houses so far as happiness is concerned be cause of some member of the family who is a petty tyrant a nagger a peace destroyer- In hours of exuberance and ex ultation or joyous merriment in reflective moments when the soul 1 is wept with memories pleasing orC lsi plaintive in the silence of religious meditation or in our little recesses from the homely duties and commonplace labors of the day or week they befriendus with their delightful solace these thoughts of home and happy family J circle There are six secular nights in each week Out of the six some men spend one at home and

despondencyWork moral and physical uplifter it is a panacea for sorrow idleness brings moral decay and furnishes an incentive to crime The avalanche of crime that is sweeping over our beautiful land is largely due to the fact that too many would rather steal than work The life of duty not the life of mere ease or mere pleasure is the end of life which makes the great men and women The best prize that life offers is the chance to workat work worth doing- A wordo f encouragement at the right time iis of more real worth than an ounce of gold It is more nourishing to the soul than meat and drink

Midwinter is no time to plant crops but it is the right time to study farm questions and alfalfa is one of the great topics So much has been printedabout alfalfa during the last few years and so many farmers have succeeded in getting it established in their fields that every other farmer ought to be ashamed of not having a Held of this perpetual clover and soil restorer One failure iin a neigh borhood has much more influence than the success of one farmer in another section Failures are common and the report of lackof success travels far There is always a reason when failure follows a seeding The land is either im perfectly drained or lacking in lime therefore sour or else the bacteria or lacking without which alfalfa will not grow or the soil may be deficient in humus and fertility This great member of the clover family is quite exacting so is any other valuable crop but when once established it is there to stay and is luxuriant in its re turns It is one of the greatest many crops forage crops soil im proving crops that can grow on good land No one who has ever been successful with alfalfa will ever farm without its beneficence To those who have failed we ad
