C1BL GOBRCH W WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, DEC. 13, 1915. I Another day and then comw the big barbecue tit Old Ford. It is expected that over two tliouaand good roads advocates will bo present. If there is anything that will defeat the bond issue on January 4th, it* will be die lack of registered votes. If you haven't already done so, register at once. If eome of those, who are at present opposed to good roads, could have gone over somo of the highways in the township yesterday or today, they would become tlio strongest advocates for improvements. Witli snowstorms this early in the season, it looks like a fine win ter ? for the eoal and wood man. The Chamber of Commerce at Rocky Mount is planning to do some' extensive advertising of that city. When it comes to location and resources. Washington is far ahead of Rocky Mount and the only reason that we haven't more people here is that the outside world doesn't know about us. ' Greece is planning to demobilize her armies. There's man v an otiier country in Europe that would like to do the same thing. A QUESTION OF COXCERN TO FARMERS. We received a letter today from A. 1). MacLean, one of the prom inent attorneys of the city, calling attention to an editorial in last week's Saturday Evening Post on the subject of good roads, and how thqy concern the farmer. The editorial is of especial interest at the [ present time and we reproduce i* with pleasure. "A recent report bv the Department of Agriculture suggests that the wagon haul from farm to shipping point of the marketed por tions of the average corn, wheat and cotton crops costs farmers some thing like tifty million dollars a year. The. crops referred to fur nish, of course, but a comparatively small part of the total farm-t> market haulage. Besides other grains, there an.' vegetables, fruit, poultry, dairy products and livestock to be hauled. Statistics gathered by township and county correspondents and Held agents of the Bureau of Crop Estimates over the country give six and a half mile* as the average distance from farm to market. Nine years ago ? though the figures are not strictly comparable- ? the distance was somewhat greater. As railroad mileage increases in| settled regions the wagon haul will grow shorter; and in nine years' improvement of country roads has enabled fanners to haul more in a day. Thus, in 1906 a day's haul of wheat was a fraction over fifty six busfcfels, while in 1915 it was a hundred and twelve bushels ? not because each load was heavier, but because more trips could be made in a day. "Of course the shorter haul bad something to do with this; but, on the whole, roads muflt have been better too. An average day's haul of cotton has increased from seventeen hundred pounds to three thousand. These gains have l**en more or less offset by higher rost of horses, of feed and of farm labor; but there is undoubtedly room for greater, gains in the same direction. First of all, it is a question of better roads ? a question of more real enncera to farmers than to everybody else put together." PREPARE FOR PEACE. The New Rem Sun-Journal brings out an excellent, thought in the following paragraph : "In addition to being prepared for war. it will also 1k? well for the I'nited States to prepare for peace, for when such is secured this country is going to have a glorious opportunity to increase its store of wealth and to own one of the greatest merchant marines in the world. While war is yet in progress is the time to get in readiness for that, coming opportunity." There is much that the I'nited States could do toward- "peace preparedness." The Sun-Journal makes mention of the n ? r ' marine, which is an important project. There are also gov rumen: highways, government controlled industries and inland waterways. i which are of equal importance. Congress is in session and '"war preparedness" appears to be the prime subject for debate and discussion. Millions of dollars will probably he spent towards putting this country on a better naval and military banis. Very little discussion has yet l>een heard of " peace i preparedness," hut it i? to Ih? hoped that not all of t.he increased ap propriations will lie made for war and that some step* will he taken to insure a greater prosperity and wealth by increasing the appro priations for waterways for agriculture arid for other measures that will be of more material assistance to the people than a great flotilla of battleships and a great army of men. 4 'LOOKING RACK WARDS." China will again revert to an empire. The Republican form of gotfcrnment has proven too progressive a measure for her un progres sive people. Tt is evident that the Chinese do not wish to progress, that they are satisfied with their old way of living and that they wish to continue in the *ame rut which their fathers, their grand fathers and their great-grandfathers travelled l**fore them. The United States prides Itself upon being * progressive country, hut there are people withinsita borders who are very similar to those of China. These people object to every progressive step that is token and the argument they advance is "what was good enough for father is good enough for me." v ? They refuse to take an interest in the development of the com munity in which they live. When a plan is organized for securing better streets, new industries, or any other project that tends to m create the prosperity of the town or city in which tl>ey live, they do, DOLLS! DOLLS! DOLLS!
