Prior to seeing their father's skill as a marksman, both Jem and Scout shared the perception that their father was older and couldn't do much of anything other than read and work. Jem especially was flabbergasted at Atticus's ability to kill the rabid dog in one shot, even though it was "a little to the right. . . .Always was." Miss Maudie, who addressed Atticus immediately after this episode as "One-Shot Finch" was delighted to tell Jem and Scout that "Atticus Finch was the deadest shot in Maycomb County in his time. . . .Guess you'll change your tune now." Like many children, Scout and Jem had never really given much thought to what their father's life might have been before they entered it, and the idea that he might have been young once was probably something new to consider; additionally, Atticus had never spoken of his talent in this particular area.

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible to answer it specifically and efficiently. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

To answer this question, it is first necessary to read the entire text to which it is related. Then, it is important to understand that public works spend public money that should be collected from the payment of taxes by the population, so how does this stimulate the economy and resource management? in relation to resource management, public works allow the government to spend resources on what is most needed in society and which will promote the general good. This general good should promote an increase in the economic capacity of the population, allowing the country's economy to be stimulated. An example of this is the creation of bridges that will allow people to get to work faster, being able to be more productive and earn better wages.

In that case, you should look in your text for evidence that shows that public works were necessary in one region and that it would promote an economic incentive in the same region.
