GOOD ROADS INSTITUTES.
What Mr. Crawford Has to Soy Con-
cerning Letter Fron^Mr. Pen-
nypadcer. ^
Ekiitor News: 1 enclose here
with a letter from the director of
public roads, agricultural depart
ment of the United States. It
will be seen that the department
proposes to send an expert road
builder to this district, and that
he will deliver an address in each
county on the subject of road
building and the value of good
roads. I had hoped to induce the
department to bring road ma
chinery and construct sections of
road according to approved metb>
ods in different communities of
the district as an object lesson.
We can hardly hope for it this
fall, but I feel sure that it will be
done in the near future, if the
people desire it. Practical les*
sons in road building of the char
acter the government gives
would be of great value to thoge
who are interested in better
roads. Transportation, by rail
and the public highway, is one of
the absorbing questions before
the people throughout the coun
try. It vitally touches all, in an
economic sense, producer and
consumer alike.
I sincerely hope that the peo
ple will avail themselves of this
easy opportunity to hear a mas
ter of the subject discuss the dif
ferent’ phases of public road
building. When the details have
been arranged, due notice will be
given of the appointments.
Very respectfully,
W. T. Crawford.

Hon. W. T. Crawford,
Waynesville, North Carolina:
bear Sir: I have the honor to
acknowledge the receipt of your
letter of August 6, enclosing, .letter
from the acting secretary of agri
culture, relative to a proposed lec
ture tour of your district.
We can arrange for one meeting
in each of the thirteen counties in
your district as you requested, pro
vided the tour begins after Septem
ber 19. In regard to the construc
tion feature of our work, it might
be possible for us to undertake
something of this character in sand
clay or gravel roads this year, but
I am afraid the season is too far
advanced for us to give you much
encouragement as to our co-opera
tion in the building of macadam
roads.
All of our road building machin
ery is now in use, and will proba
bly not be available before the be-
^^nTiTTig of the ^Vinter season. How-
ever, the exi:>ert from this office
can explain the whole plan of co
operation, thoroughly, during the
lecture tour and can, at the same
time, ascertain the most suitable
time and places for road construc
tion, and ‘we can then determine to
better advantage what course to
pursue. Very respectfully,
J. E. Pbnnypacker.
Acting Director.

In a private letter Hon. W. T.
Cra-wford says: • “I am trying to
get'the T>»nartment to send an ex-
pert on agriculture*ilong -witli tne
road expert. I wiU send out de
tails in posters in a few days. Will
appreciate it if you will keep it be
fore the people so.'.that we may
have a good crowd at the meeting.
I hope to be present.**

pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science hss
been able to cure in all its stages,
^nd that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is the only positive <*ure now
known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional dis
ease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. ball’s Catarrh Cure is taken

blood and mucous aurfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foun
dation of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building
constitution and assisting In
doing its work. The propi^ore

powers that they offer one hundred
dollars for any case tbat it fails to

,‘We never repent'of eating too lit
tle,” was one of the ten rules of life
of Thomas Jefferson, president of the
United States, and the rule applies to
every one without exception during
this hot weather, because it is hard
for food even in smalljquantitles, to
be digested when the* blood is at
high temperature. At this season
w e should eat sparingly and proper
ly. We should also help the stom
ach as much as possible by the use of
a little Kodol For Indigestion and
Dyspepsia, which will rest the stom
ach by digesting the food itself.
