Or RAVELING PROJECT
BECOMING POPULAR
! Kaymond Lohnes, maanger of the
Cedar Creek lumber yard, was in
town Monday evenng. He says the
; petition to gravel the Louisville-
Plattsmouth road and also the road
to Cedar Creek connecting the town
with this highway is being largely
signed by the residents of Eight Mile
Grove preefnet. The idea is to follow
the rlan of other precincts that have
recently approved of the offer of the
. commissioners to pay one-half the
expense out of the automobile license
fund and the precinct authorize the
levy of a small tax for one year to
pay the balance. If you are a resi
, dent of Eight Mile Grove precinct
and favor the plan you should lose
.no time in putting your name on the
petition. Not only this, but ask your
.neighborto.dolikewi.se.
When Louisville precinct voted to
gravel its road, the county com
'missioners were handing out no such
! alluring offers, although they treated
. us very nicely by furnishing the
'grading. But after all. what's a few
dollars between friends? We have
our roads graveled and have been en
joying them. We can appreciate the
benefit and wouldn't go back to the
old method of plowing through mud
for double the amount it has cost us.
That is why we are free to advise our
neighbors. . We believe in all season
roads. Those who opposed the pro
position are enthusiastically advis
ing others to crawl out of the mud
and get on solid ground.
The Courier has been a staunch
supporter of good roads because it
is firmly convinced that money spent
to procure them is money wisely ex
pended. It has had confidence in the
judgment of the taxpayers that when
the right time came they would fall
in line for road improvement. Pre
cinct after precinct has signed in
favor of a plan to gravel and the
Courier feels that the ice is broken
and that Cass county will soon have
as good roads as other counties In
the state. Louisville Courier.

THERE is but one Maytag the washer that won world lead
ership by its cleaner, more careful washing. This wonder
washing Maytag is equally practical for farm homes with or
without electricity. You have your choice of
power electricity or gasoline.
The Gasoline
Multi-Motor
This remarkable Maytag engine is the
simplest, sturdiest, most compact gaso
line engine made. By removing only
four bolts, it is interchangeable with the
electric motor. A thrust of the foot
pedal starts it and it delivers an abund
ance of power as steady and smooth as
an electric "motor. High-grade bronze
bearings, a flood-proof carburetor, Bosch
high-tension magneto and speed gov
ernor make it a worthy Maytag product.

Find out how the Maytag will change wash
day for you. See how the Roller Water Re
mover, with a flexible top roll and a hard
bottom roll, wrings everything evenly dry
and spares the buttons. Write or telephone
for a Maytag before next washday. it
