Savior to honor the last by
rendering all her devotions at
the Lord's three altars here on
earth—the family, state and!
church altars; thereby like Jesus
her Savior, bowed never at any
false altar and so like her hus
band left her children a full
pattern of service separated
from false altar service as Jesus
Christ did while on earth. She
was a member of the United
Baptist church of Christ, also
a corporate member of the
National Christian Association,
opposing and exposing secret
societies and lodges of all kinds.
She left 10 children, 37 grand
children and 2 great-grand

1 You Are Paying For 1
I Good Roads==But are 1
I You Getting Them? I
It is a foolish farmer who thinks because his coun- m
■ ty has not voted bonds, and because the sheriff is
I not collecting anything from him for the purpose, ■
m that therefore he is paying no road tax. Every farm
er is paying a road tax—for the bad road itself is a m
■ tax. It charges you enough extra (in increased cost
I of travel and transportation) to pay for good roads. ■
I Everybody, therefore, we repeat, is paying for good
■ roads. There are only two kinds of folks--those who ■
pay for good roads and get them, and those who pay m
for good roads and don't get them. • n
If your county has voted bonds or a special tax, I
then it's a case of paying for good roads and getting M
them. If on the other hand, your community is do- I
ing nothing? then you are paying for good roads, pay- ■
ing enough in the increased cost of hauling and
traveling to have them--and are not getting them. ■
The road tax you pay the sheriff is productive: it ■
brings you value received in return. But the mud M
tax the bad road charges is a cheat and a fraud: you I
pay all the expense and get nothing back. In fact, ■
the road usually gets worse instead of better. ■
This then is the big message that we would leave ■
with every Progressive Farmer reader this week : ■
■ You are paying for good roads—but you are not get
■ ting them? ■
If you are not—well, the thing to do is to be
■ gin paying tax to the sheriff instead of the Bad Road. ■
M And very soon you will begin rejoicing over some fine ■
V gravel or sand-clay high-ways instead of bewailing ■
I your fate in having to flounder through mud. ■
a There are just a few others suggestions that ought ■
m to be made. m
I In the first place, don't get the foolish idea that ■
A building the road is all. Keeping it up after it is m
built is just as important. You would not think of m
I buying a'thorough-bred horse then turning him in-
M to a broomsedge field to shift for himself. If you C
V have paid a good price for a horse, you are all the more - I
willing to take care of him after you have him. It I
ought to be the same way with a road.. The cost of ■
■ keeping up a sand-clay or gravel road however is m
m very small. What you would have to pay as interest
money for macadam road will keep up the sand-
Don't rest until your county has good highways. ' I
Talk the matter over with your neighbors, the lead- \ m
ing men in your county, and get a movement started ■
for an adequate tax bond-issue. Then see to it that ■
the money is wisely spent under the direction of ef
ficient road-builders, and that they' recognize the m
economy of sand-clay or gravel as compared with
macadam, and the i'mportance of the drag as the M
cheapest of aM road-makers.--Progressive Farmer. ■
