Ing. sSfF'
There will never be, permanent roads
quilt in Iowa until there is an or
santzation established by state law
with power to act without the consent
OF the local community. The county
should be the unit. The local author
ity should be the board OF supervisors
acting under and by direction of a
state highway commission.
Permanent road building will begin
In Iowa when there is an arbitrary
power established. Permanent roads
has passed the talk" stage; it has
passed the experimental stage; it has
passed the amateur" stage. This
whole matter has been demonstrated
by other states. Plans and specifica-
tons are obtainable in a half dozen
states. If the state Of Iowa through
its legislature this winter should es-
tablish highway commission and
place funds in it's hands none OF II
need be wasted in experiments either

within short time.
The Eagle believes Benton county
is ready to act in conjunction with
highway commission to build per-
manent roads. 1t believes the county
is ready to put up dollar for dollar
with every dollar the state Will ap-
propriate. The highway commission
should be the determining power as 70
how. where and when the roads should
be built. It would be utterly useless TO
leave road building with the severa!
boards of township trustees ana the
board of supervisors. Local commu-
nities' could never handle It, II that
method were adopted it would simply
be a waste of time and money.
The Eagle has faith that the COM
mittees on highways in the two houses
Of the legislature will be able to Tor
mulate road laws that will be effective
in organizing and perfectins ROAD
bureau which will solve the road ques-
ton in Iowa Road building isn't a
matter of today nor tomorrow; II Is
a matter of years and many years al
that.

baked. and was thrown into the dis
card" The Journal explains that the
T.-R. never misses an opportunity to
throw a brick thru habit and submits
that Mr.. Cannon had plenty Of good
company, citing Mr.. Taft as per ex-
ample.
1t might be mentioned that OF the
good company kept by Mr.. Cannon
him into the discard. The high per-
sonage referred to particularly by the
Journal is in the discard much deeper
down than the former speaker. Indeed
the former speaker might have
squeezed thru again had it not been
for the burdensome weight of the
presidential candidate. For Cannon
was consistent. Whatever else may be
said of him, and that is plenty, nobody
can say the gray wolf of Danville ever
doubled on his tracks like fox.
Judged by the vote Of last election
the IRIS comment was not only con-
sentative but kind. Mr.. Cannon's de-
feat came precisely because he refused
to adapt himself to the will and wish
of the voters. The good company he
kept was not so considered by those
who cast the ballots.
The length Of Cannons service and
the manner in which that old political
desperate held his district against at
tack after attack and the overwhelm-
ing defeat of Taft is typical of the
strength and character of the two men.
Cannon was big, Taft small by COM
parison. Cannon made pledges and car
ried them out in the face of opposition.
Taft made promises and forgot or re-
pudiated them. Cannon never fled
with the hare and followed with the
hounds. He was a leader. That is the
secret Of his continuance in office long
after he should have been displaced.
1t is not abuse of public men nor
the throwing of bricks to point out the
actual causes Of their relegation to pri
vate life. The protest against such
comment comes naturally from the dis
card.

There isn't any manufacturing busi-
ness that gets its raw material easier
than the ice man's.-Marshalltow
imes-Republican.
The usually keen Marshalltown edi-
tor has overlooked the one manu-
featuring business which beats the ice
mans for supply of raw material.
That is the drunkard factory. 1t
only has to throw open its doors af-
ter securing a license from the COM
munity to make drunkards. Then the
raw material transports itself to the
factory at it's own expense, and pays
the cost of being transformed into a
drunkard.
The ice man has to take his tools
and his teams to the ice fields ana
transport the product to his ice houses.
Not so, the saloon, to which not only
the raw supply is delivered, but from
which the finished product only has
to be kicked into the gutter.
1t is not the intention to compare
the two businesses: indeed, no two
are quite so dissimilar, for one con-
serves and preserves. the other de-
strcys. But the contrast furnishes a
commentary on the Marshalltown edl-
tors conclusion which will appeal to
the community as fairly illuminating.

MAKING old Orchard. Productive.

Mucn can be done with the old Or
chards to counteractTyears of'fnesicct.
The first step is pruning. No one sys-
tenn can be described as each tree PIE
sents a different problem.
The dead wood should first be re-
moved, then long dropping limbs as
we'll as tall ones should be shortened.
Where limbs are thick they should be
thinned and where branches cross and
rub one should be cut out. High tops
should be cut back. In pruning off
cut close to the base of the limb and
leave no stub cut, for this never heals
satisfactorily. Good tools should, of
course, be used. The axe is never per-
MISSILE in the orchard. 1t is mis-
take to cut off very large limbs when
ever it can be avoided. Use the saw
instead. Cracks and water checks in
the stub hold moisture and are pretty
sure to result in the death Of the par
ticular limb and later the tree itself.
A mistake commonly made it to
prune trees from the bottom up. This
is a serious mistake, because of the
cutting off of many fruit spurs and re-
moving the fruit bearing wood to the
outer edge of the long limbs. 1t is the
| surface close to the ground and well
! distributed over the tree.
Water sprouts will usually develop
! after vigorous pruning mas been given
/ but these are easily removed and
! should be cut out each season All
| wounds over an inch and half in
diameter should be protected with a
thick coat Of lead paint.
After the pruning has been done
steps should be taken to combat in
| sects and fungus diseases. 1t is now
impossible to grow good fruit without
| spraying.
In the end, perhaps, the old orchard
may need some attention in the way Of
cultivating and manuring. With proper
care, tho, the old trees may even ye
be made to produce paying crops. They
are certainly worth consideration.
(, When an old apple tree gets in such {
condition that there is little bearing
wood among its branches. it is some
times advisable to top-work. This !!
a very easy process and is done by
simply cutting off the old branche:
and taking q small limb about TIVE
inches in diameter cut smooth directly
across A split is then made acros!
the smooth cut and two. small scion!
Of the current seasons growth are in
serted at each side of the cleft. The
whole is then covered with grating
wax After the new graft is wei
started cut away one Of the two new
gratis if both have started. The new
gratis grow very rapidly and in two o.
three seasons will be in bearing. Top
working will often proloug the life o
an old apple tree as much as twent!
years.

BUILDING ROADS.

Any attempt to take away from. the
local communities the right to con-
troll their road affairs viii be met by
instant revolt, but il highway COM
mission has a fund available which
can be used to help those communities
that are disposed to make permanent
improvements, there will be no con-
fict of authority for the reason that
the local officials can do as they please
about accepting such aid and super
vision.-Good Roads.
If the above is true there will never
be permanent road building in Iowa.
Or II the local communities must
control each rod Of road running be-
tween towns Helping those COM
munities that are disposed" is simply
wasting money.
What use would 1t be to have high

.Pie.-Almost . necessity 70 life. Hot

than q soft boiled Ell. becauso you In

while you Just gulp the soft ones II
you know how to eat the soft ones. they
are Just 10 good a. ones cooked hard.

no real choice except In matter Of

Maybe you remember that soEgy. sub

was q crust, whose sickness mother
had absolutely waterproofed against
the attacks OF the digestive juices. But

crust, Is entirely different"

ISM" says the Cedar Rapids Repub-
lican speaking Of the fee system.
1T is hardly safe to make the
feeding Of prisoners a source of profit
to a sheriff. The prisoners are apt
to get the worst OF it ad the sheriff
is apt to line his own pockets while
destroying the Innings of the poor dew

4 man who is confined IN prison for
misdeeds is not entitled to great
deal OF turkey and pie. but he ought
to be given plenty OF good wholesome
