Greatest Bargains Ever Shown in the Vehicle Line
We have a lot of odds and ends in some instances from builders whose work we will no longer handle; in others that the varnish has become dim; some again that the styles did not take very well though popular else-
where. Furthermore —well you don't care why—what you are after is RESULTS and we will have a general "house-cleaning” as it were; and inasmuch as we want to convert these vehicles into cash the cost of the goods
will not be taken into consideration. These vehicles MUST BE SOLD and we have placed the prices at such a low mark that you cannot fail to buy. When taking our annual inventory we figured these vehicles at from
50 to 75 per cent of actual cost consequently you will hav e an opportunity of selecting from a large variety many of which will be offered you at considerable less than manufacturers’ wholesale prices. Included in this
sale is our entire stock of Closed Carriages each and every one being offered at and below cost Terms of sale will be 1-3 cash balance in three equal monthly instalments.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE FIGURES WHICH WILL ENABLE YOU TO COME TO SOME CONCLUSION:

GOOD ROADS.
One of the burning questions of the
day which has behind it strong influ-
ences and apparently an increasing
popular sentiment is that of govern-
ment aid in making good roads
throughout the country.
This proposition is supported by
many financial interests also by man-
ufacturers of bicycles and automo-
bUM in addition to the manifest in-
terest which the fanners and the bus-
iness men of towns and villages nee-
eHsarily feel in the subject. Automo-
bile and bicycle manufaciurers favor
the measure because good roads con-
tribute to the extension of their
•hade and are therefore profitable.
Their support comes as a simple bus-
'ness proposition and joins with oth-
sr influences to advance the cause.
The propriety of th? federal gov-
ernment entering into inis scheme is
widely questioned but 'there are co-
gent arguments In its favor. If a mer-
chant cannot send his goods upon the
waterways of the nation on account
of shallows or sand-bars the govern-
ment removes the obstruction without
expense to the merchant. If farm pro.
ducts cannot be brought readily from
the farm to town on account of im-
passable roads why it is asked should
not the government extend a helping
hand? bocal methods long tried are
found to be Inadequate. The almost
universal habit of allowing the far-
mers to work out their road tax. in-
stead of paying it in money results
in probably the loss of at least 50 per
.cent of the nominal amount of such
tax
The plan proposed by bills now
pending in congress Is co-operation
between the national st ate a nd county
governments. Provision is made for
an appropriation of 52a.000.000 to be
distributed among the states on the
condition that they respectively pro-
vide for at least an equal amount.
Thus if the share of one state should
be one million dollars it must pro-
vide at least another million. The
state In return offers to each county
its share conditioned upon its raising
at least ono-third as much. By this
means every dollar furnished from
the United States treasury will it is

assumed secure as a rule nearly $3.
cash .expenditure on the roads. As
this expenditure is to be made under
the inspection and supervision of gov-
ernment officials the supposition is
that the best possible results will be
derived therefrom.
The value of good wagon roads to
the commetce of a county must be
conceded when we remember that
95 per cent of the trade handled by
the railroads and steamships is first
carted over the country roads. Hence
the enormous aggregate waste due
to the fact that it may require four
horses to haul a load which two horses
should haul if the roads were good
or that it requires two days to
haul what could be transported in
one day—the fanner thus giving one-
half his time so employed to the bad
roads cause.
It is estimated that the average
farmer loses at least 5100 a year to
the cause of bad roads. This injures
not alone the farmer but the village
store keeper because the farmer might
earn $lOO a year more and have that
much more to spend.
If one were called upon to decide
which of the great American indus-
tries had in the last forty years been
most favorably affected by legislation
he would be obliged to say that farin'
ing was that industry. Much of this
legislation has been only of indirect
benefit but it has all resulted in the
farmer's favor from the railroad sub-
sidles which open up vast territories
for settlements to the tariff schedules
which have amazingly developed our
manufacturing interests and made
home markets for agricultural pro-
ducts. All this favorable legislation
has been of benefit to the whole people
as well as the farmer. Now if by im-
proving the common roads of the
country another direct and manifest
benefit can be conferred upon the ag
ricultural population who is there so
blind to the general welfare as to
Interpose an objection?
All the proposed measures provide
for the issue of local bonds to raise
funds to pay for the building of the
roads. This naturally meets with fa-
vor from that class of capitalists who
prefer to invest in local securities
rather than railroad or manufacturing
enterprises. Some objection is made
to this feature but if properly regu-
lated and restrained within reasona-
ble bounds it cannot be objectionable.
Good roads of a permanent nature
like all other enduring improvements
are made not only for the benefit of
this but of succeeding generations. It
is therefore not unfair that some of
the burden of paying for them be
transmitted to posterity.
The movement has already been of
vast benefit in an educational point of
view. The department of agriculture
has sent through the country expedi-
tions. equipped with machinery and
manned by expert road builders who
have in many states demonstrated the
ease and certainty with which valuable
improvements in this line may be
made. Innumerable official publica-
tions on the subject have been widely
distributed and have stimulated dis-
cussion in the public press. All these
things combine to bring about good
