Naturally thore will follow tho mak
ing of Improved highways of other

Joy tho prlvllego of froo Improved
roads. V. V. Klnley, president of
tho Southern Railway company and
chairman o tho oxecutlvo commlttoo
of tho American Association for
Highway Improvement, makes a plea
to tho farmers of tho country to Join
forces with tho view of improving
country hlghways.especlally thoso
which connect large towns that fur
nish a market for their produce and
shipping points. Ho alludes to the
roads connecting tho principal towns
as " trunk lines" in distinguishing
them from thoso to shipping points.
Mr. PInloy says: "Tho trunk lino
highways, afford Ideal routes for
tourists. Thero aro some localities,
especially thoso most frequented by
tourists, whore the construction of
trunk lino highways of this class 1b
highly desirable and their improve
ment necessarily benefits tho farm
ers adjacent to them. If the greatest
good is to bo done to tho greatest
numbers, tho farmer Is moro Inter
ested In tho Improvements of the
roads of the second class which have
been mentioned thoso radiating
from a market town or shipping sta
tion. By giving attention first to
those parts of tho roads Immediately
adjacent to the towns and shipping
stations and extending improvement
out into tho country year after year
as funds may become available, en
tiro regions will in time be traversed
by good roads. Then, by connecting
up adjoining systems of those radiat
ing roads, trunk lines and through
road for tourists ultimately will be
formed. The Improvement of theso
radiating roads will be benefltilal to
not only tho farmer, but also to a
largo proportion of tho dwellers In
cities and towns. Thoy will enlarge
the trade of retail merchants, facili
tate tho work of rural mall carriers
and extend the limits within which
local newspapers can be circulated
on the day of publication.
WHICAT STALKS FROZEN.
State Zoologist Finds Duiimeo Where
Snow Wiitj Light.
Fears that the wheat crop of Penn
sylvania will fall as far short of the
average as it did last year, because of
tho severity of tho Winter and tho
absence of snow at the time of the
remarkable drop of the temperature
In January -and February, are ex
pressed by llr. H. A. Surface, the
Stato Economic Zoologist, who has
returned to the capitol after visiting
a number of counties in tho southern
and western ends of the State.
Last year tho wheat crop fell short
owing to tho depredations of tho
Hessian fly, which was worse than
had been known in a decado, and al
most ruined tho crops on famous
farms. In many fields tho wheat
stalks have been frozen.

Surrounded with verdure and wood

Spread out like a mirror lies dainty
Beach Lake,
A Jewel of nature reflecting tho light
Of the lord of the day and the queen
of tho night.
Its beauties hut half understood by
the throng,
Who people its borders the whole
summer long,
In primitive splendor it lies here as
ono
Who's worth is unnoticed, who's
1 praise is unsung.
Its waters of crystal, lit drink for a
king,
Tho sands of its shore gleaming

Its coves aro all dear to tho fisher
man's heart,
Its beaches tho bathers delight.
Its health-giving hreezes Tirlngs color

To the cheeks of tho workers In of

Who, when their brief summer vaca

Put In the glad hours around dainty
Beach Lake.
There nro lakes that are larger, much
larger, in fact,
Some of them approaching in size to
tho sea,
They are all right for traffic, but for
pleasure or rest
Lakes of that size don't appeal to

In an hour of comfort, with paper or

Or a health giving row I would take,
Or a season of pleasure with rod,

Then give to mo dainty Beach Lake.
A river has beauties peculiarly fts

Thoy both furnish pleasure and Joy

But they pall on the senses at last.
But tho prldo of Wayno county, its

Which glitter like gems In tho sun,
Offers pleasure unbounded to thous

Both now and for ages to come.
Keep forever theso beauty spots open
to all,
Whero alike, both tho Tich and tho

May get close to nature and naturos

A Few of tho Things Dono by tho
Present Administration.
No better statement so briefly put
can be found of the splendid work
of tho Taft administration than the
following from the Oregonlan:
As with ono of his predecesosrs,
tho people should lovo Taft for tho
enemies ho has made. Con over the
list and see if they aro not the right
kind of enemies for a man whoso solo
aim Is to enforce tho law as It
stands and amend it in such fashion
that it shall moro closely conform
to justice.
He has prosecuted violators of tho
anti-trust law with such impartiality
that political associates and college
classmates are not spared. Ho has
put such life Into this law that thoso
men, who scoffed at It as a dead let
ter, now beg to have it extended, that
tho Government may protect them
against their own proneness to
wrongdoing. Theso men who have
felt tho scourago of tho law aro his
enemies.
He has consistently adhered to a
tariff policy which will cut out tho
craft without impairing the rational
protective features of tho tariff;
which will relievo tho consumer
from extortion without hardship to
tho producer; which will make each
schedule stand on its merits, as do
wned by an imartlal board, Instead
of allowing thoso Interested In ex
cessive duties to pool their Interests
In order to perpetuate such duties.
Dy securing tho Insertion in tho
Pnyno-Aldrlch law of provision for
tho Tariff Board ho Insured that that
Bhould bo tho last tariff bill prepared
under tho old log-rolling system,
and that all future tariff bills should
bo based on ascertained facts col
lected by a non-partisan body. So
clearly did ho see that this was the
only rational policy that ho did not
fear to awaken a roar of denuncia
tion by vetoing tho Democratic bills
which did not conform to ft. Tho
general approval with which tho re
port of tho wool tariff has mot, its
accoptanco by tho standpatters as a
culdo. the embarrassment of tho Ir
reconcilable Insurgents and tho
cries of Democrats for tho abolition
of tho Tariff Hoard aro tho vindica
tion of Taft's policy. Hut ho has
mado enemies of tho manufacturers,
who see tho end of their tariff graft
approaching, and of the politicians,
who wish to keep tho tariff In poll
tins for political purposes. Aro thoy
not tho right kind of enemies for a
faithful public servant?
Ho has conserved tho public do
main iby sotting asldo forest, coal and
phosphato land and watcr-powor
sites, and has proposed reform In
tho land laws which will conserve
this wealth from tho eploltor, but
will permit Its uso. Ho has thus
mado enemies of both tho exploiters
of tho public domain and tho con
servationists who would provent its
uso.
Ho has approved a plan of mone
tary reform which lias won tho In
dorsement of business men, little as
well as ibig, but by 60 doing ho has
Incurred tho enmity of thoso who
"soo rod" at every mention of mon
ey, and of all thoso In whoso disor
dered brains tho groonback and froo
silver crazes still linger. Ho proposes
a wholesale extension of tho Civil
Service system, which would doprlvo
congressmen of much power and
patronage. Ilo saves millions by
economy In administration and pro
poses to put system Into tho national
finances by means of an annual budget.
President Taft's enemies are those
he has made by doing his duty to tho
nation those who liavo fallen foul
of him because thoy are enemies of
the public good. Tho kind of enemies
ho has made are his strongest rec
ommendation to the public confi
dence. Being unpopular with such
men, ho should be popular with all
tho rest of us. As the pooplo review
his work, thoy more and moro realizo
tho fact. That is why he is " com
ing .back."
