It lie not overstating the fact to say
that three-fourths of the men charged
with the responsibility Of building
and repairing the roads the country
over, know very little about the sub
iect; they have not had the engineer
Ing experience or even the practical
experience necessary; they have sim.
ply followed their predecessors and
they do what the fellow before them
did.
In the movement for better high
ways the first step Is more intelli-
gent expenditure of the time and
money appropriated for the better
ment of the roads, to the end that the
community shall get the most and the
best results for its contribution. It
Is common practice to do either the
wrong thing, or If perchance the right
thing is done, to do it at the wrong
time Of the year, and the result is
very often an expenditure Of one dol
lar to get thirty cents worth of bene-
At. As an instance we might cite
that Illinois is spending five million
of dollars year upon the highways,
and those in position to know, assert
that more than half of it is wasted
by i'll timed and misdirected effort.

that the outlet is unobstructed If side
bitches are used, especially on a hill
slope, and have them as wide as prac

Suppose the bed of the ditch Is
twenty-four inches wide down hill
slope. Construct SO that the bottom
of the ditch next to the hill side will
be an inch or so lower than the side
next to the road, so the flow will
tend to the hill side instead of to the
road
Wherever 1t Is necessary to carry
water across roadway, 1t is best to
use iron or concrete pipe and carry
1t across at an angle. Strong tile
will do If it Is placed sufficient dis
tance below the surface so it will not
be broken by the traffic. The outlet

CRAFT LOSES HIS CASE
State Fire Marshal Held for Dam

Sioux Falls, Dec. ia feder-
al court jury, in the case Of Will

the state fire marshal of South
Dakota, and others returned a
verdict awarding a judgement in
the sum Of $500 in favor of the

$25, 900 for alleged wrongful ar
rest and detention in connection
with the destruction by fire of
a barn in Moody county.
A stay of sixty days was grant
ed the defendants in which to
make application for a new trial.
The whole case turned upon tn
failure of the sheriff making the
arrest to have his warrant prop
erly 20 KID" in the county in
which the arrest was made. The
warrant was issued in Moody
county and the defendant was
found in Deuel. county, where he

That this is necessary will be a

in any county was good in any

were removed with the others by
the troops but were later per-
