Southern Iowa Is just one bower OF

Hon. John M. Wade Of the board Of

visitation of the institutions in south
ern Iowa.
There is considerable difference
between northern and southern Iowa
at this season of the year" he said.
Southern Iowa Is two weeks further
along than around Des Moines. The
trees are all abloom and In the coun-
try where plums, cherries and peaches
are abundant, the country presents
beautiful appearance. Down among
those hills and dells around GlenWood
is veritable paradise at this season
of the year. The orchardists have
commenced to spray their trees and
prepare to fight for good fruit, and
they have fine start this time. Farm
operations are we'll advanced but al

MANY CALLS MADE
FOR ROAD LAWS.
State Ofiiclals Are Being Asked For
Copies Of Misunderstanding
Booklet on Law.

Des Moines, May 3.-(Special. -
State officials are daily besieged with
inquiries for copies Of the new state
highway commission law. Copies Of
the senate bill which finally become
the law have been exhausted. Just az
soon as possible the pamphlet giving
the law with annotations will be issued
under auspices of the highway COM
mission.
The preparation of the copy for the
SO many new questions coming up or
variations Of the main problems, and
the deeper the annotators get into 1t
the harder it appears to get the In
structions worked out In satisfactory
manner.
The office of attorney general may
be impelled to send out warning on
the matter Of having bridge work
done this year on old or continuing
contracts. II there are valid contracts
for individual bridges existing the con.
tractors Of course can 90 ahead and
finish the same and collect. But It
work Is commenced on new business
under what are known as the blanket
contracts, which are really on price
agreements, and the state highway
commission specifications are not fol-
lowed there is danger that soc sharp
taxpayers will 60 into court and en-
join payment for the same. A vast
amount Of litigation is possible unless
great care is taken. SO the state Of
ficials say.
Members Of the state highway COM
mission are to meet here this week
and consider with state oflcials the
methods for the greatest efficiency In
office work and the handling Of the
business. A. w. Wilkinson, former
clerk Of the courts Of this city, and at
|one time accountant for the board OF
control, has taken charge of the open
ling OF the books for the commission.
He made the Investigations into coun.
|ty affairs in Clinton, Jackson and
some other counties last year which
brought to light 50 much Of public In
terest regarding bridge contracts.
It is the plan Of the commission to
divide the state into three distracts
foar convenience in the matter OF the
visitation Of members to different
counties and with regard to the en-
pert engineers. The commission is
abundantly supplied with funds for
carrying on the work.
