In a yearly report devoted to the
history and solution to the good roads
problem, State Geolagest w. 5.
Blatchley of Indiana draws the con-
clusion that State Highway Com
mission, such as is in operation in
Massachusetts and New Jersey Is absO-
lutely necessary II any state is to have
good roads. The commission in the
states mentioned has fun supervision
over all road Improvements in the
state, fixes a standard for both gravel
and stone roads, requires strict com
pliance Herewith, and has done more
to bring about proper and permanent
road construction than any other
force Experienced and honest men
are chosen as inspectors and superin.
tendents by such state commission
and every dollar spent is accounted
for in proper business manner Mr..
BIatchley also suggests that the
adjustment of the present antiquat-
ed method of working out the poll tax
under supervisors can not come too
soon. He holds that such tax should
be paid in cash and this, for the most
part, should be used in permanently
improving some certain portion of
road, the improvement to be done by
contract and under the proper super.
vision, The suggestions here are
worth the while OF those particularly
interested in pushing the good roads
movement.

The beet farmers are particularly
iubilant this year Besides having
splendid crops they have a contract
price that can not be lowered by over
production or other old thing. With
the potato, wheat or any other crop, a
particularly large production usually
means lower price. With contract
price, the beet raisers are decidedly
ahead.

JEWISH NEWYEAR
BEGINS TONIGHT

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-The setting
of the sun this evening ushers in the
Jewish New Year 1867. 1t is feast
of marked significance in the religious
calendar of the Jews and is observed
by reformed and orthodox alike, ex-
cept that the former observe one and
the latter two days. In all congrega-
tions the ancient ceremony OF blowing
the shofar, or rams horn. Is stu used.
In the orthodox congregations, which
cling most tenaciously to the old time
ritual, one of the customs Is for the
men to appear in the temples wearing
shrouds to typify the Significance Of
the day a. a reminder of death.
1t matters not how distant any Jew
has kept himself from his co-religion-
lists. on New Years day and the holy
day that follows he is found in the
synagogue. For that reason It IL Inn
possible to accommodate the large
number that desire to attend services,
and therefore in many sections OF the
metropolis, particularly on the lower
East Side. scores of public halls are Sc
cured for the services During the
holy days money Is collected for char
liable institutions and organizations
