it would seem that the prospects are probably better than ever for securing the atten tion of the government for the con struction of a good provincial road from the queen oity to the border the arguments in favor of it from a rural standpoint are vastly more in keeping with the ufo program tbaqtbat which appeared to meet fervor from the late govern ment largely substantiated as it was from the tourists standpoint keeping everlastingly at it is the only way to obtain results anyhow and as the dominion grant for good roods must be expended on main roads tbere is substantial reason for
