(Joon roads are the best possible investment in any eommunity. There is not an interest that is not bene fitted by such improvements. It makes all sorts of farm products more valuable by making markets more accessible. Laud located on good roads obviously becomes more valuable as residence property, for it may 1 more easily ami pleasantly reached. Considering the importance of good roads, it is of vital moment that ob ject lessons in their building should be well taught. For this reason none but the most skillful engineers and the most conscientious contractors should lecmployed in building model roads. I ft he improvement proves good and permanent, it will soon convince the tax-payers that more such road is desirable, and develop ment in that line will follow. Should the model road prove defective, it would be a serious setback to the cause. What are Building and Loan Asso ciations. The following, taken from an ex change, is reproduced with the idea of putting our people to thinking more along the line of ISuilding and Loan Associations: Joint stock benefit associations for the purpose of raising a fund to as sist memlrt'rs in obtaining homes. Money is loaned to the members and is paid back in weekly or monthly instalments. The interest, on money borrowed at the rate of (5 per cent, per annum is payable weekly or monthly. Kvery six months these Building and Loan Associations re ceive into it new members. The se curity offered to investors induces many people to enter the Ituilding and Loan with a view of having a convenient means of depositing their savings. In the 1'nited States alone t he assets in t hese building associa tions is $10,00(1,000,000. This large accumulation is the result of only a few years. Think of t he homes now owned by people that have been built through the Building and Loan Asssociations. If you want to build it's a good thing. If you do not, it teaches you and trains you to save. Talking about what Jluilding and Loan Associations will do for a town, Charlotte now has buildings under way that will call for an outlay of a million dollars. Cause for Pride. Charlotte News.

As a matter of fact, there are few things that an en gineer dreads more on the track in front of him than a cow, and with good reason. The reason is to be found in the dispatch in yesterday's paper which told of a double-header on the Illinois Central, running through Iowa, striking a cow, which was, of course, killed herself, but which caused a wreck which cost the two engineers, two firemen and a brakeman their lives.

Parker's Two Drug Stores. Greeting to Roosevelt. President The following editorial article pub- ished in the Richmond Times-uis- ntch of the 18th, is so fine in spirit, and the subject matter so pertinent that we copy it although a little out of season for the purpose which it served that of a greeting to the 'resident of the I nited States upon lis visit to that city: Kometbinir more than forty yean, ago the President of the United States enter ed the city of Richmond and took noHsewBion of her conquered territory, and when he came he found sorrow and desolation. On Sunday night, April lH(;r, Richmond was evacuated by the 'onfederate crovernment; the troops were withdrawn from the front and the offi- ials of government took train for the South. Ah they departed from Manches ter they looked back and beheld the en- ire lower portion of the city wrapped ii flames. Practically all buildings em braced in that part of the city hounded bv Twenty-second Street on the hast, James River on the South. Fifth Street on the West and midway between Grace nd Franklin Streets on the .North were destroyed and that portion which survived bore the marks of poverty and leprivation which the long and disas trous war had entailed. It was a gloomy sight which the President of the United States beheld on that occasion and the heart of Abraham Lincoln mus,t have been touched to the quick. Rut while their city had been in great art destroyed, the spirit of the men and women of Richmond had not been brokea and ere the bricks in the smouldering ruins had cooled the citizens pulled off their coats and went to work with will and energy unsurpassed to clear up and rebuild. Jntime nil the buildings were restored and Richmond entered upon a new career. Today the President of the United States will enter Richmond as our in vited guest and will see no evidences of distress and desolation, hut every evi dence of happiness and prosperity. He will see a city of 100,000 inhabitants with buildings and lots assessed at $"0,- 000,000, an increase of more than 4,000,000 in a single year, a city of factories, warehouses, mercantile estab lishments, bonding and insurance build ings, hotels, churches, schools, parks and monuments, nnd as a further sign of rogres8 and prosperity, he may know thatjthe deposits in the banks have in fifteen years grown from less than f'.,000,(V0 to more than $2K,000,000, being equal in the aggregate to the en tire deposits of one of the most pros perous of the States South of us. As he enters and drives through our streets, he will receive a cordial welcome from the people of the city which was once the proud capital of the Southern ('onfeder- 1 i 1 acy. ana wnnnersoever uis eyes may turn, to this side or that, he will see countless numbers of Federal flags dis played in his honor, as well as in token of Richmond's loyalty to the national government. . .. . It has been said that they to whom it has been given to do the really high est work in this earth have trodden with deeding feet and aching brow the hard, rough and thorny life of which the Cross is the symbol."' And again that "the man or woman who has learned to suf fer well has gotten the highest of moral victories.'" It was in war that the men and women of Richmond learned to suf fer, and while the cause in which, and for which they suffered failed, they have gained in peace a victory more glorious. Nay. it was this training and discipline in tlie school of suffering and daring which gave them the grit and the grace to rebuild their Jerusalem and make it stronger and greater than ever, an object lesson in enterprise, courage and pat riotism, and may we not say that it is this grace, born of devout suffering, which enables our people today to for get those things which are behind and extend in sincerity and hearty good will the hand of welcome to the nation s chief magistrate. Rut our greeting to President Roose velt is no empty formalism. It is the greeting of a patriotic people w ho know the flag of the Union and the man whose high function it is to hold it high and preserve its honor at home and abroad. .Moreover we cordially greet the man.for we admire Mr. Roosevelt. We admire him for his courage and manliness, for his frankness, for his good morals and lor his righteousness. W e believe that he has become broader in view and more catholic in spirit since his last election e beh?ve that his great triumph at the polls so far from turning his head has softened his heart and made him more and more in love with all the people e believe that he haw risen above par tisan prejudice and the bigoty of poll tics and that he is endeavoring to re deem his promise to be President of the nation without respect to person, party or section. We admire him because he walks in the fear of (!od, and makes thesuggested morality of the Bible his rule of conduct. e admire him because he insists that all shall obey the laws, no less the high nnanciers ot wall street than the hum ble citizen of low degree. Mr. Roosevelt is but human and it is human to err, but iu spite of any errors which he may have made ne has convinced the nation that he is sincere in what li3 says and does, that Ins impulses are generous and chivalrous, that lie has an honorable sense of duty and that his courage never mils. Richmond is proud to receive and en tertain him as her guest and hopes that the acquaintance w hich is formed today will ripen into mutual and lasting friend ship, l or one day at least, we shall forget that there is such a thing as poli tics, partisanry or sectionalism and burn sweet incense to hospitality and pat riotism.

Company Chartered Propoed to Ex tend from Spring Hope to tne Nor folk and Western Is This Part of Plan for Coaling Station Near Beau fort? The Raleigh Post of Tuesday says this in connection with the incorpor ation of the North Carolina Connect ing Railway Company, particulars of which are published elsewhere in the (iOLD L,EAF this weeK: An important railroad company was incorporated yesterday and from the route defined it promises to be part of the great plan under way for the devel opment of Eastern Carolina and will fur nish the Atlantic Coast Line with direct connection through this State with the big coal fields of W est lrginia. In connection with the incorporation of this company there lies an interesting story. About twentyyears ago theCoast Line'built a branch from UokcyMt.,onita main line, to Spring Hope, in Nash coun ty, and the general expectation was that it would beextended on to Raleigh. How ever, it Btopped in the woods, hardly 20 miles from the North Carolina capital, and there made Spring Hope its termi nal. A scheme for bonds to be issued in this county for the completion of the line here fell through and the popular suppo sition ever 6ince has been that the old Raleich and Gaston Railroad, the parent of the present Seaboard Air Line, reach ed an agreement with the Coast Line whereby the latter was not to enter uai eigh in consideration of the use of the former's bridge over Roanoke river at Weldon. This state of affairs has con tinued until the present time, the Coast Line still having Spring Hope as its terminal. Rut the completion of the Raleigh and Pamlico Sound Railroad from here to Washington will pass through Wilson and there tap the Coast Line. It traverses too a portion of the same territory as would the extension of the Coast Line from Spring Hope here. Rut it now appears that the Coast Line may have different and far more im portant plans for its little line to Spring Hope. The North Carolina Connecting Railway Company was incorporated yesterday for the purpose of building a line from Spring Hope to Roxboro, a point on the Norfolk and W estern, a line that runs to the Virginia coal fields. In building this connection the company has the right to traverse the counties of .sash, rraukhn, Halifax, Warren, Vance. Cranville and Person. This company is to begin with 890,000 capital, to be increased to $450,000, which by a majority vote of the stock holders may be increased to a larger sum. t he incorporators are V.

Railroad, from More- head to Goldsboro, and of the Norfolk and Southern which is being extended so as to make, with the little Pamlico, Ori ental and Western, a line between Nor folk and New Bern. Does the building'of a connecting link between the Atlantic Coast Line from Spring Hope to Roxboro on the -Norfolk and Western mean a great coaling route via the Norfolk and Western, the Atlantic Coast Line and the Atlantic and North Carolina to buid up a great coaling station at Beaufort or some point near there on the North Carolina coast?

An informal luncheon was given President Roosevelt in Richmond last week after his reception and address in Capitol Square, at which he spoke as follows, as copied from the Times Dispatch: The address of the President at the luncheon given in a beautifully deco rated hall in the Masonic Temple yes terday afternoon deeply stirred the hearts of all who heard it. Mr. Roosevelt said: Mr. Mayor, Governor and You, My Hosts: One among the very many great Virginians at the time when this nation was born, said: (and I quote, gentlemen, Patrick Henry), Patrick Henry said: "We are no longer New Yorkers or New Englanders, Penn- sjdvanians or Virginians, we are Americans. And surely, Mr. Mayor, the man would be but a poor Ameri can who was not touched and stirred to the depths by the reception that 1 lave met with today in tins great historic city of America. Coming to day by the statue of Stonewall Jack soil, in the city of Lee, I felt what a privilege it is that I, as an American, mve in claiming that you yourselves lave no more right of kinship in Lee ond Jackson than I have. I can claim to be a middling good Ameri can because my ancestry was half Southern and half Northern; I was born in the East and lived a good while in the West; so long in fact that do not admit that any man can be a better Westerner than I am. There was an uncle of .nine, now dead, my mother's brother, who has always been anions: all the men I have ever met the man who it seemed to me came nearest to typifying in the flesh that most beautiful of all characters in fiction, Thackery's Colonel New- comb, my uncle James Uunwoody Bulloch, an admiral in the Confeder ate navy. Jn short, gentlemen, 1 claim to be neither Northerner nor Southerner, neither Easterner nor Westerner, nothing but a good American, pure and simple. Next only to a man s having worn the blue comes t he fact of the man's laving worn the gray, as entitling dm to honor in my sight. Last year told General k ltzhugh Lee that 1 wanted to add to my collection of autograph letters of great Americans Lincoln, Grant, Clay, Jefferson, (turning to tne uovernor, your namesake, Andrew Jackson) that of General Lee, with Jus photograph. J crot from General Fitzhugh Lee a let ter of General Lee's and a photograph of him, handed to me alter General r itzhugh Lee s death. I was not able to thank my old and valued riend, the father, but 1 put the son on my staff; and now I have the grandson of General Grant and the grandnephew of General Lee and the son of Phil Sheridan on my staff. I think it is a middling good staff, too. In my regiment, organized at the beginning of the Spanish-American war, 1 think that there were more men whose fathers wore the gray than there were whose fathers wore the blue. The only rivalry that ever entered their heads was the rivalry as to which man could show himself best entitled to the praise of having done all that in him lay for our country and our flap:. I noticed that the statue of Stone wall Jackson was raised as a gift by certain Englishmen. The best bi ography of General Jackson was by an Englishman, Colonel Henderson. It is a curious and rather lamentable fact that he died just as he was about to undertake another biography which I had earnestly asked him to undertake. I had written him urg ing that he should finish his very re markable military study of Stone wall Jackson, by writing a military biography of General Lee, and he had written me back that he in tended to do so. Shortly afterwards 1 learned of his death. Gentlemen, I cannot sufficiently ex press to you my deep appreciation of the way in which you have greeted me here today. You cannot be nearly as glad to see me as I am to see you. Let me sav once more what I said in my formal address. Think of the good fortune that is ours, think of the good fortune that is ours as a people in having, each of us, whether we in our own persons or through our ancestors, wore the blue or the gray, the proud right to chal lenge as our own all of the valor, all of the self-devotion, all of the stead fast adherence to right as God gave to each man to see the right, shown alike by the men who wore the blue and by the men who wore the gray in tne great contest that was waged from 'Gl to 'G5.

There is a large amount of hillside land in east Texas that by terracing can be made the finest of orchard land, advises Farm and Ranch. The terrac ing requires a good deal of work and the laying off of the boundaries 6ome little skill. Hut there is little if any cash outlay required. Terracing consists of first establish ing a beginning place at the highest point, then establish a line marked by states that shall everywhere be two feet or three feet, as desired, below the highest point Then by placing the leveling instrument ou the lower line another line two feet or three feet low er still may be marked, and so on to the foot of the hill. To properly level terraces that do not entirely circle the hill use a reversible or hillside turning plow. Degin at the lower side of each terrace and plow to the upper side, al ways throwing the furrow down the hill. If there is time before setting of trees, this process can be continued un til each terrace is reduced to a level, or if planted to annual crops this leveling may be continued through several years. The level terrace is probably best, but not really necessary, for orchards, us washing can be prevented by so placing the trees that no furrow will have sufficient fall to do serious injury. In this way many washed hillsides may be reclaimed and by proper rota tion of crops made more fertile than they ever were or if planted to proper ly selected trees or vines may be made the most profitable of all the land on the farm. A Strove, Lteht Gate For the Barn. In managing stock to the best advan tage in stables where a few unruly an imals must be managed a few easily constructed conveniences can be placed here and there that will greatly lessen the labor of tying up the stock, says an Ohio Farmer correspondent. In our barn we have constructed a few gates, as shown in the accompanying illus tration. The crosspieces in the gate are made of pine, being three inches In width and one inch in thickness. Two pieces are required both at the top and bottom of the gate. It is very essential that the crosspieces be of good timber and quite free from knots, for the strength of the gate greatly depends upon this part of the construction. The vertical pieces are made of oak, being two inches in width and one inch in thickness. In this gate the vertical pieces are four inches apart. In hang ing the gate we have found nothing fflnnnnnnnr A HANDY BABN GATE. equal to a strap hinge with a wood screw bolt for a hanger. The strap is bolted through the gate with quar ter inch bolts. The latch is made of the same material as the vertical pieces, being cut down to half its size in order that the side motion for moving the latch below may be secured. It is bolt ed between the two three inch pieces and also to the piece below. When the top of the lever is pushed forward, the gate is unlatched, and with reverse ac tion the gate, when in proper place, is securely held by the short right angu lar piece. A light brace is very neces sary to hold the gate in proper shape. In our barn we have eight of these light, simply constructed gates that serve an indispensable purpose. At night all gates are closed, and if any animal gets untied no harm can be done. Most invigorating Bath in Great Salt Lake.
