Widening of the Area of Travel
And Necessity of State Control

Improvement of the highways in
almost every locality where it has
been accomplished has brought about
a most remarkable change in the
traffic which they carry. Over unim-
proved roads the travel is generally
limited TO small loads drawn by horses
and occasional buggies or other light
wagons. Sometimes an automobile
passes, but not often.
Loads drawn by horses over unim-
proved roads are necessarily limited.
as the hauling capacity of animals 5
limited 10 what they can pull over the
worst places. While three or four
tons are not exceptional loads for two
horses on hard roads of easy grade.
one-third TO one-qIarter of that amount
IS often difficult TO negotiate over a
road which abounds with mud holes
and sharp pitches; with long heavy
hills it is often less.
When good roads are built much
local heavy traffic. which has previous
iy gone by other routes, is diverted TO
them, probably doubling the amount of
load travel originating in the vicinity
which passed over the road before its
improvement.
The good road easily doubles the
distance that a horse or team ard
buggy can travel in day. This ia It
brings into existence a larger amount
of this class of travel, estimated az
fifty per cent more, and by reason of
the greater distance which may be
covered, and the overlapping travel
from other localities, this class of
traffic may easily be multiplied by
three.
The development of the automobile
multipies by ten, according 10 the
most reliable estimates, the radius of
a days travel. With an automobile
4 business or professional man at the
county seat or other point can visit
practically every part OF the county
in a day, and be home before supper
time. People from other localities, OH
business or pleasure, enter, leave or
cross territory in a short time which
formerly took hours; local merchants

Automobile trucks establish freigh:
lines to villages and smaller points
which were previously unprovided for
With all these facilities, which i'm
proved roads make possible. il is esti-
mated that the motor car travel of all
kinds is multiplied approximately by
ten.
Doubling the heavy traffic. trebling
the light horse traffic. and multiplying
the motor traffic by ten, places fifteen
vehicles on the good road where there
was but one before the improvement
was made. And this is an underesti-
mate rather than otherwise. close
observation of the travel over thous-
ands of miles of improved roads viii
show increases OF twenty or thirty
times that which existed before the
good road was constructed. This en-
ormous increase intravel is one OF the
wonders of the age in which We live.
And this enhanced travel is an impor-
tant factor in the development OF To-
cal markets.
State control of road construction
is made necessary by number of diff
ferent reasons, each important in il
self, as has been demonstrated by the
experience of states where state aid
has long been the rule. Among these
are. that the roads in various counties
when built shall form continuous
routes; that the construction shall be
as nearly uniform as the nature OF
available materials will permit; that
the location. drainage. material and ev-
cry other factor involved in the con-
struction shall be under the charge OF
competent engineers: that the con
tracts be let to competent and respon-
sibIe contractors. who can be held to
a strict accountability; and that the
road funds, state, county and town
ship, be properly expended and &C
counted for. so that every dollar shall
produce a dollars worth of first-class
road.

Every Home Needs
This Fine Remedy
A Mild, Reliable Laxative
tonic is Something No
Family Should be
Without.

No well-regulated home should be
day in family of several persons
that someone doesn't complain of a
headache, of sleeplessness, or show the
first signs of cold.
A laxative then becomes a necessity
or what was a trifling congestion at
the beginning may run into a serious
cold or fever. No harsh remedy is
needed, but simply a mild laxative
tonic that will make the liver active
and stir up the bowels. People who
have tried a great many things, and
are themselves heads of families who
have seen the little ills run to big
ones, will tell you that there is moth
ing better than DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, which you can obtain at any
drug store for fifty cents or one dol
lar bottle, the latter being the fam
lily size.
Among the great believers in Syrup
Pepsin for constipation in old or

emergency remedy is Mrs. ]. w An

WASHINGTON, April 11.-These be
lean days for the press associations
at Washington, which sent dispatches
concerning actualities. But it is the
open season for the dopester.
When Congress is in session bills
are passed in the chambers of the
greatest deliberative bodies in the
world These constitute tangible
news Columns may be written with
ease where the writer is a victim of
the old adage that every man is elo-
quent on the subject ne knows But
when Congress is not in session no
one seems to know anything What
do you know" is as common a greet
ing in the Congressional press gal
leries as it is on the Bowery in New
York, Canal street in New Orleans, or
Main street in Ishpeming, Mich
Nearly everybody in the United
States has an idea that nothing hap
pens in Washington except that which
is closely connected with the govern
ment When Senator Knute Nelson,
known in this country as Nelse knut-
son, was first candidate for Con
gress, his Swede campaign manager
passed the word around that if the
people would vote for Nelse he would
go down to Washington and run the
government like a top. But any small
boy will tell you that even top runs
down occasionally. The government
top seems now to have run down.
Oscar Birmingham Underwood and
a select company of the majority in
the House has been engaged in wind
ing the string around the top again
and today it was hurled down on the
sidewalk and set spinning once more
But the winding process is rather dull
A whole lot of freshmen Congress-
men stood around in a circle watching
Mr.. Underwood wind up the top. They
were eagle-eyed and were watching
closely to see that the string did not
get snarled or twisted in such a way
as to tangle when the cast was made.
! few Republicans were doing their
best to step on the string or cut the
end of it off short but Underwood was
vigilant and it looks as though the
top, labelled tariff this time, is hum
ming in tune.
There is a time-honored institution
which the smallest newspaper office
includes among its ssession-towit
a "morgue." This is not the sort of
morgue that the police departments
of the large cities supervise, the place
to which people go after big fires to
look for familiar bits of lace and
jewelry among the shapes that once
were men and women. But it is sim
liar.
A "morgue" in a newspaper office is
not a resting place for dead men but
for dead news. When anything hap
pens in the world or in the news
papers, a clipping. telling all about it,
is placed in the morgue. The news is
dead for the present, perhaps, but
may become useful during the lean
years which come to everything. Sup
