Creed PrmJeaKo and Good Hrtltli I separable CoHilltioaa. Tho vddo awake, prosperous, busy town differs as much in appearanco as it does in manner from tho uleepy, careless community that lets things tako caro of themselves. What u contrast tho well paved aud well kept street of tho for mcr present to tho untidy aud neglected aspect of tho latter! The capitalist, tho artisan, the homeseeker, can but bo impressed with tho evidences of thrift and energy that aro inseparable from cleanliness and order. As a consequence tho ouo rapidly advances in wealth and population, while tho other btmtds still if it does not which is probable executo a backward movement Tho tirst duty of a town is to provide for tho health of tho residents that is, so far as it is possible to do so by preventive measures. Cleanliness is next to godliness, and puro water and a scientific sewerage system aro indispcnsablo aids to the physical and moral welfaro of tho community. Iu far too many localities is tho question of drainage left to tako caro of itself, and it remains a perpetual menace to tho publio health, sootier or later to break forth with dire results. A system of drainages should embrace not ouly tho removal of storm water which falls upon tho streets, but also tho water from sinks, closets, factories and other sources. All such should havo direct connection with sewers having an outlet in the nearest water course. Tho street gutters should Ihj kept free from rubbish and havo such a iwrfect grado that no water will find lodgment along tho streets on either side. Money judiciously spent in this work under tho supervision of a competent engineer is a safe and sure investment that will bo returned with compound interest In our own town there is much room for improvement in this direction, and each business man and householder owes it to himself and his neighbor to help along this necessary work. In tho matter of streets, too, wo aro far from perfect. With a little moro caro in the details of construction and moro systematic and thorough methods of keeping them freo from sticks, stones and other accumulations of rubbish our thoroughfares would bo a credit and n prido instead of, in somo cases, tui eyesore and cause, for mortification. As in tho larger cities, ordinances fixing penalties for dumping ashes aud other household refuso to tho streets should bo enforced, as well as forbidding tho loading of wagons with dirt, coal, wood, otc., in euch manner that a part of tho contents will bo distributed along tho route of th"ir jmssage. A proper supervision of these matters, with a lilteral distribution of the printed ordinances, will go far toward realizing tho desired neatness. TREES IN THE TOWN.

Thry Ailil Value tu l'rfiprrtjr A Few Itrmurk on Street I.ichtiiiK. A love of the beautiful is inborn in man. Trees are a source of never failing enjoyment to dwellers in tho town, and no town can be beautiful without thcia. How refreshing their shade in summer, and tho dreariness of winter is rendered less desolate by their presence. Sentiment aside, trees have a direct value, A tree shaded avenue is a much moro desirable place of residence than one which lacks their adornment Property is more valuable on this street, and landlords demand and receive a higher rato of rent. The houses are more pretentious, tho lawns sire green and smoothly shaven, and bed of flowers and bunches of shrubbery bear witness ,to tho friendly rivalry among tho dwellers to excel in the beautiful. A comparatively small outlay would do much to beautify our town. Once planted and properly guarded from destruction, trees require little caro and in a few years will amply reconrpenso us for trouble and money expended. Thy lighting of streets at night is a subject of great importance to tho people of a community. Tho benefits are many and far outweigh any question of cost or economy. How many accidents that have caused loss of life and limb are due to insufficiently lighted or wholly dark streets ! How many crimes have been committed under cover of darkness that would never have been perpetrated had there been light to reveal tho robber or assassin to his intended victim ! The development of electricity has mado it possible to light our streets at night at a small expense. No costly plant is required, and tho outlay for labor to put up the wires is nominal. Tho lighting of the business section Ib not enough. It is good so far as it goes, but it does not go far. Tho personal safety and convenience of every citizen demand that our streets shall to so illuminated that ho may leave his home after dark without danger of breaking his limbs or having his head sinoehed by somo enterprising footpad. For Ailvertlaera tn Conaliler. Tho recoil of ads. loaded with lamo logic often breaks tho backbone of business. A verbal "wiggle" to a "business bait" will often catch tho eyo and interest of a very cautious "fish." It takes two to make a bargain, but one persuasivo ad. well circulated will often make a market An appetizing ad leaves a tasto in tho reader's mouth which often ripens into a hunger for the thing advertised. A peculiar verbal twist to an ad. often helps it to draw the cork of pcutup prejudice. A business boom loaded with convincing logic and shot through tho columns of a mighty medium will knock piggish prejudice higher than Gilroy's kite. Newburyiwrt (Mass.) News. A Vary Good Cltlira.

WIDE TIRES TESTIMONY. Tbrlr Kutwrlorltjr Otrr tlir Nur rim Shewn. Obarrvatlon of w Furnier. I wish to givo my observation anil oxpericuco. I havo a lot of teams to look after, and wo havo on tho farm but two narrow tired wagons. In tho spring of 181M when hauling manure tho wagon with U inch tires and tho one with 1 U inch both went to tho field together, tho loads being equal When iu the field, tho broad tired drove in and unloaded; tho narrow stuck. Four horses were put to it to get it to a place to unload. Tho condition of tho field was tho same, broad tires on top of tho ground, narrow tires iu ground alwut eight inches. In addition to tho farm I also own tho largest sawmill plant in southeastern Indiana and now nso wide 7ires on all wagons, none being less than 43 inches. Tho common dirt roads (clay) havo no stonoon them in this country, and roads that aro used by common farmers are cut to pieces all rut nnd mud whilo tho roads used by tho log wagons aro solid and fit to drive over at all times. In tho spring of 1892 wo had a couple of mnlo teams to help plow a wet pieco of ground. I was in tho field when they struck it Tho mules, which weighed near to 950 pounds each, mired to their knees and were unhitched to get them out. Then I ordered ono of our heavy draff teams to try to plow where mull's could not, and they completed tho job in a good manner. They weighed 1, 790 and 1,840 each. From my observation and actual experience, having under my charge moro horses and wagon than three or four farmers iu this section of Indiana, I am led to Kdiovo that tho wide tiro is tho roadmaker and tho narrow tiro tho road breaker iuid horso killer. Whero I cannot go with a wagon with tires 4 J inches wido and a team of Clydes weighing from 1,500 to

1,800 pounds each no man with narrow tires dare go with tho samoload, no difference what his team may be. Givo us wido tires and compel farmers to use them and wo will havo letter roads than we ever have hail and save our horses also. Cor. Breeder's Gazette. How to .Make. Slilo Ultelie. A form of side ditch frequently seen along country roads has steep sides, which cave in on the slightest provocation, thus olistructing the How of water at tho lottoni and rendering them useless. Tho proper form of ditch is broad and flaring and has slopes of 1 to 1 that is, tho slopo extends outward a horizontal distance of 1 1 feet for each ouo foot of vertical rise. Tho ditch gnngo here shown is useful in making tho proper slopes at tho side of the ditch. The guago is made of light strips ol

3fODE.Ia DRUG CO It. IS 15K AN NOCK, M. I , Sev.'y and Malinger. Keep a full line of

DITCH OAUOE. wood about 3 inches wido and an inch thick. Tho upright strip is 4 feet long, and the horizontal strip is 1H inches long, measuring from tho back edge of tho upright to the cxtrcmo point, and tho top of the horizontal strip is one foot above tho Iwttom jxriut of tho guage. The bottom of tho ditch may ls from 6 inches to a foot wide. Tho guago is provided with a plumb line, fastened to tho upright strip, and by this means tho upright pieco is held vertical and tho slojws made to corresiond with the edge of tho diagonal strip. Country Roads. Kugvettlona Knr Ulifhwuy Improvement. There is no argument against highway improvement. Tho only question is as to cost. While certain farming neighlwrhoods of the wet have excellent hard road, mado of gravel mid perfectly good tho year round, it will bo a long time before such improvements will leeomo general. Meanwhile there should be tui improvement iu roadmuking methods. Tho system by which farmers' work out their road taxes by scraping tho mud that has liccn washed off tho roads into tho gutters or ditches back again into tho roadways ought to bo abandoned, Iload taxes should be collected in cash, as school taxes are, and expended in accordance with some well defined plan looking to the permanency of the work done. Suitable machinery should bo purchased. Ditches should bo dug. Tiling should bo put iu, and tho uso of wagons with broad tires should bo insisted on. Tho work should Ik) carried forward year by year on scientific principles by comiR'tcnt men, and tho cost would not bo greater than tho present wasteful methods. Tho result would Iks that iu a few years the highways would bo practically all that tho fanner would require for tho economical and easy luindling i.f his business. Chicago Record. The Itftad .Movement In .MaryUntL A farmer living 20 miles from tho city on a macadamized road can haul a load of kay to market iu a day. Those living on mud roads require three days. That is what a delegation of the Maryland iioad league went to Aiuuiolis to say to a committee of tho Maryland legislature. Tho bill they offer advocates tho annual cxttcudituro of $'.'5,000 for a department of good roads, $1,000 of which is to bo tho salary of a road engineer. The delegation made much of tho fact that its mcmlcrs had paid road tax for years and never received any projter return for tho money. The cxicuditurcs for the roads had been wastetl, and fully 1 10,000 were thus lost to the state every year. Exchange, Ilehlnd the Time. The farmers of l'olk county, la., have formed an anti good roads association, declaring that their roads aro good enough. Wo should bo glad to see thoso farmers or thoso romls. Tho ouo must be very far behind tho times or tho other far akead. American Farmer.
