Town and country merchants can anddo sell just ;1s cheaply. as city mail order stores and in many in- stances cheaper, but the people must be educated to the fact. City.stores depend entirely on•advertising. Qual- ity and price may be all. right, but the story, must be told in advertising like the city store news is. Something To Think About When farmers • learn that on each mile of highway, three rods wide. 27,000 tons of water fall annually," says the. University Farm Press News of Minnesota,"they will begin to ap- preciate the necessity of highway drainage, and learn that a hard road cannot be made out of mud. No plan. of road worts, no amount of labor and machinery will make a gooddirt road that will stay good, until some plan is adopted to get rid of the•water."

Over -100 Applicants Mr John Wiseman has the honor of being the 100th applicant for connec- tion with the Clinton Waterworks: system.

He comes. in. when he can, laden with filth and germs which he cheerfully deposits on whatever food he is able to reach.
