A homer, which took the starch out
of McShane, was driven over the

taken out, after filling the bases and
allowing three men to cross the plate,
but it was too late, as the game was
cinched 1t was a desperate struggle
for supremacy, but the Goslings play

notchers and Watertown, with
another game between them before
the close of the season.

one third times as much as her rail-
roads for transportation, whereas in
this country the public roads are so
poorly maintained and administered,
as whole, that the highways carry
only between one-third and one-fourth
as much produ as the railroads.
Director Page has described the con-
dition OF the roads of the United States
in making an announcement that the
American Association for Highway I'm
provement has opened offices in Wash
ngton, The organization OF this as
sociation followed a conference in this
city several weeks ago OF many OF the
leading road engineers of the country,
the president of five OF the largest rail-
road systems and representatives Of
motor car manufacturers and publish-
ing interests. w. G. Brown, president
of the New York Central lines, is vice.
president of the association; Lee Nc
Chung, treasurer of the United States,
is treasurer and Louis Hill, president
of the Great Northern Railroad, is
chairman of the board of directors.
TO Harmonize The Work.
According to President Page and
other officers of the organization
the principal work ahead is to CORE
late and harmonize efforts Of all exist
ing organizations working for road i'm
provement to get uniform road legis-
lation in every state, and to seek con-
tinuous and systematic maintenance
Of all roads. Everyone interested in
road improvement is eligible for mem

Minnesota Leads in Wheat

Minnesota again takes rank by big
lead as the greatest wheat producing
state of the country, and, by statis-
tical coincidence the most remarkable
that the department of agriculture
whose annual statistical report is out
today, has ever found, is shown to have
raised this year 81 .0S0,0OO bushels, ex-
actly the number given by the estimate
of the department for 1909.
1t is between the prominence of Min
nesota and Kansas as wheat prod
and the great rivalry of the two states
that the principal interest lies. Kansas
which is one of the greatest OF grain
producing states, whose wheat fields
extend every year over an area of be-
tween 8 100000 and 5000, 900 acres, and
whose product is winter wheat, which,
ordinarily averages somewhat higher in
yield per acre, passed Minnesota in 1905
by 100000 bushels, the totals for the
two states in that season being 6S,577-
600 bushels for Minnesota and 7S,lS2,-
900 bushels for Kansas. At that time
the winning of first place from Mime
sofa by the Southwestern state was COM
mented upon all over the United States
and was the cause Of much speculative
| figuring what the comparative promi-
nence of the Northwest and Southwest
in wheat production would be few
years later, this against the contention
of Northwestern authorities that tenn
porary conditions of one season caused
the change.
Last year Minnesota, with produc-
ton OF "a ,Os0, 900 bushels, was o 100000
bushels ahead of Kansas, which raised
S5 ,478 900 bushels, This year, with Ca.
080, 900 bushels for Minnesota, Kansas
shows up 81 .060, 900 bushels, Minnesotf
thus running ahead by 100000 bush
els.
Minnesota, North Dakota and Kansas
are the three great wheat producing
states, and although other states ruI
prod duction far into the millions, non'
approaches these three. e.-Minneapoli

Bad Roads a Big Waste.

Washington. jan, That the Uni
ted States suffers a direct loss Of 40
million dollars annually on account OF
incorrect and inadequet methods in the
construction, maintenance and ad-
ministration OF public roads, is the as
sertion of L. w. Page, director of the
United States Office of public roads,
and president Of the new American
Association for Highway Improvement.
This enormous loss Ia nothing com
pared with the indirect loss, through
excessive cost of transportation, which
is caused by the burden which bad
roads impose upon the farmers and
Others who use the highways, and this
amount, according to Mr.. Pages re.
port, rsaches the impressive total oI
250 million dollars every year
Where Europe is Ahead.
The American Farmer ispaying two
or three times as much to get bis pro
ducts to market as the man who till
the ground In Europe, and this added
cost of transportation is known TO b'
an important factor in the high cost o
living problem. France is said to us'

Morgan Asks Federal Aid.

Wash. ID c., Jan. i4-Dis.stisfied
with the attitude taken by F n. New
ell, director OF the reclamation service,
toward irrigation in western Oklahoma
Representative Dick T Morgan Satur-
day went over the head OF the reclama
tion service anu lodged his plea for
fair play to Oklahoma direct with Sec
rotary Ballenger Of the interior depart
ment Upon hearing Mr.. Morgan's
views the secretary promised to lay
Oklahoma's claims for recognition in
the hands OF Major General William
L. Marshall, consulting engineer for
the interior department, with instruct
ions to report to him direct what has
been done in Oklahoma by the recla-
nation service, and whether or no. a
final field investigation of the 0klaho-
ma situation is desirable.
Discussing his conversation with Sec
retary Ballenger, after the conference
with the 0klahoman correspondent,
Nr Morgan said he was confident that
another investigation Of the Oklahoma
situation would be authorized by the
secretary and that he was hopeful that
this investigation would be prolific in
greater results than those heretofore
made under the directions OF DR.. New
ell. Mr.. Morgan made a special pie
for Woodward, Ellis, Harper, Beaver,
Texas and Cimarron counties, which
are in the dry zone He informed Sec
retary Ballenger that the lands in thesa
counties have been entered largely
since the passage of the reclamation
act and the settlers had assumed that
the government would carry out in
good faith the provisions of the recis-
nation act, and that in due course of
time portion of these lands would be-
brought under irragation.
The fact that only $4,000 had been
received out OF total OF more than
5000, 600 contributed by the state to
the reclamation fund was also brought
up in the conference. Mr.. Morgan al
so said that most OF this money was
spent in southwestern Oklahoma. In
Mr.. Morgan's opinion the reclamation
service has never made a careful and
thorough survey of the proposed irri-
CATION projects along the Cimarron,
Beaver and North Canadian rivers.
1T, after a careful and thorough
survey and investigation by competent
engineers, it shall be determined that
there are no feasible and practical ir-
rigation projects in Oklahoma" said
Mr.. Morgan, "our people no doubt will
accept the result and b. satisfied
Should a subsequent investigation re-
veal feasible irrigation project, name
ly. one that would not cost to ex eed
$50 or $50 an acre, it is not improbable
that the state would find itself drawn
into the project for the reason that
more than one million acres of state
lands are embraced in the northwest.
Some means Of co operation between
the state and nation for the reclama.
nation of these and other lands, there.
fore, would seem essential to the sue
cess Of the undertaking "-Oklahoman
