WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 20. 1913.
Rain this week fell in many sections of the drouth-infested
west, where the corn crop has been cut short millions of bushels.
The happy season of the year on the farms is here—tobacco
curing time. It is a little bit early yet. but soon from a thousand
hills flames will crackle in the dues, and the hue of the fires will
be of gold.
There seems to be an impression that the road improvement#
have been called off, and that the movement is dead. This is
entirely unfounded. It is law, and you can depend on it for sure
Danbury, Sauratown and Meadows will|have good roads. The
bonds will be issued next month. The money markets are easy,
and there should be no difficulty in selling- Stokes bonds at a Rood
premium.
The Danbury Reporter's correspondents wilt take a day off and
enjoy a picnic and reunion at Piedmontl Springs on Saturday,
August 30. There will be, fan interesting program
of exercises, nsatic, dinner, andSsocial Zinrtereonrse. and an
enjoyable occasion is expected. The invitation* will be waited out
this week. Should an? of the regular correspondents not have
received a letter from tha Rejitrter ere|this, they will oblige the
publishers by aerifying them at once.
Henry Clews, the well known financial expert and writer of
New York, says there 'is not the slightest danger d? afiy panic or
monetary stringency. Tha change in tha tariff laws has been
largely discounted, and money is eur. The cffffir of tha Secretary
of the Treasury to lend $g00,000,(&) to Southern I and Western
farmers to move their crotpa with, forestalls tha usual tightness
in money at this season of th» year. Tha prraßitecfS for good •
business and great prosperity as a re«alt rtf the splendid crops,
were never brighter.
A Good Dirt load Is Better
Than Poor fine ot Bock.
My county has- been making
the mistake of building rock,
roads when wa havo not had
money enuugh to build a re&l'
dirt road. Tha result io that
after five yean of thie policy
we have a boat 25 miles of ma
cadam roads, Which are gain* to
pieces iti 12 mouths after beiug
built beeausa enontfh stone was
not p»at on tho road, an'd oar
supervisors picked sp from, a
class of men willing to
office that pays sot over J&0 per
year for the honou it* it. No
matter how heaestvthey are.,
they are, from the lack of tx
p-.rience. incompetent to. direct
road building- The roads *ro uot
properly drainer! and no one'
looks after then-; after being
built, limtead of making what
they 'ln make, tirst-class. r :ey
attempt to stretch the road as
t..:' h* j.n *• if>.c.
Tne iiirl roads are in worse
sha;.e tli:ui they have been for
years. There is not a road-drag
operated in the county, so far
as 1 know, and I travel all the
roads.
My conclusions are that had
we spent the same money grad
ing, bedding, and draining dirt
roads properly, we would have
benefited more people, and the
roads with the aid of gravel,
etc., which could easilv be
procured would be in better
shape for most of the year at
least than they now i-re.

Celling Rid of Fleas.
The ttea revals the bedbug in 1
sociability and as with the cock
roach and bedbug, only unceasing 1
devotion to them on the part of 1
man —or rather woman—will 1
cause them to depart. They 1
| live and feed on any warm
bl'X>ded animal, from rat to
human In fact, the plague is
spread by the agencyiof fleas on
rats and rabbits. The first
thing to do is to eliminate the '
source of-supply, the cat or .dog, 1
if possible, or. at least, the nest
The flea lays its eggs among the
hairs of animals These drop
off and hatch into tiny white
worms which secrete themselves
in cracks, under the neat, or in '
any other convenient place wait
ing to tnm into the adult with
! the strength of Teg to "seek ;
'whom it may devour." They,
(object to hot soapsuds or l*e ,
1 getting info the crevices where''
they are enjoying thensselVes,
dislike the liberal ise of lime brf
insect pqwder, are extremely un-|
comfortable when moisfened by j
gasoline or kerosene, and will]
not tolerate fumigation. It is paid 1
that sticky fly paper with a j
•mall piece of raw beef in the■
center, placed under tit* bed
will do effective work. gone-.,
times eats and dogs and thickens
can be rid of fleas by
insect powder among the hair or
feathers. A wa6h of two
teaspoons of creolin fox cats and
four for dogs, with a qaart of
water, is recommended. \i fleas
are on the head or neck of chick
ens. lard will kill them, but!
carbolated vaseline will nst only |
kill them but will heal the skin. >

aniily get injured in any way, such as
I sprains, cuts, bruises, and, in fact, in many
j accidents that happen I always use Mus

| I never think of anything else—it is
