Then many have their doubts. Of course money is often spent extravagantly for this purpose. Many counties are still paying on bond issues for highways long since worn out. Reasonable expenditure for good roads is different from most outlays. A fine public building advertises a town or a coviuity, but it does not reduce tax bills. But when a good road is built autos run over it with less gas tires wear longer and cars need less repairs. Time is saved to farmers, truckmen and business concerns. Many towlnis that think themselves economical are really extravagant because of money wasted fn driving over rough roads, which discourages people from trading there. Talk to a few Randolph citizens, any number you like, and you will filnd opinion differs as to the best method of raising good roads money. Taxation of gasoline is regarded by many as the fairest and most practical. like the dentist with his local anaesthetics, who gets the tooth out before you know it, this tax has a way of reto unconsciousducing the ness before he is aware he has to give up his money. And then he glides over the new roads as happy as the has been stopman whose tooth-ach- e We are taxed for our roads, ped. whether we improve them or toot. If we allow them to decline, we do not realize the taxation, but it is there in the form of lost time, repair bills and injury to the towns business. And so like the man with the b&d tooth, the best way when a road gets too bad is to have those rough surfaces out, and get over our taxation pains as soon as possible. . The story is told of a traveling man who recently dropped into a hotel not so far from Randolph and espied a new waitress in the dining room. Nice day, little one, the begata drummer.

BARKER, General Partner, WILLIAM FACKRELL, LOREN JACKSON, Special Partners. 1 th Delving among some old documents recently, a Marshall, Mo., man came across an old acount book, used between the yeais 1818 and 1843. The records, kept at a Missouri trading post, throw interesting light on the good old days, as older residents of Randolph are accustomed to refer to them. In 1818 one 6u stonier drove three sheep to the trading post and received for the three the sum of $6 in' trade. Corn was 22c a bushel, hemp linen 41c a vard and cottdni linen 10c a yard. That year the bought 150 pounds of pork at 2 a pound, delivered. But 10 years later pork prices had gone up, for bacon was quoted at 6c a pound ; wheat was 50c a bushel: whiskey 50c a gallon, and ebon eh jeans to make a pair of pants cost $4.16. In 1834 potatoes a bushel, meal were selling at 33 at 50c a bushel, butter 10c, beef 3c, lard 6c, eggs 6c, and corn had dropped to 22 c a bushel. The price of enough jeans for a pair of pants had slumped to $2; the price for making them was 50c. An entry in 1841 shows that houses rented for $1 a month, and it cost 50c to get a pair of shoes made if the leather was furnished. Times have changed during the 100 years, and we really believe for the better. We love to speak of the good old days, but how many of us would want to return to them, all things considered? er c Randolph, Ut.
