1T is A FORWARD STEP.


Governor Clarke is to be commended
for deciding to appoint good roads
commission. This commission will de-
wise means and methods by which
Iowa can secure permanent roads. The
findings of the commission will then be
submitted to the next legislature. 1t is
to be hoped that by that time there
will be sufficient sentiment in favor
of permanent highways in Iowa to in
sure legislation toward that end.
Iowa is entitled to permanent high
ways. Iowa should have them. Iowa
is not entirely standing still in this re-
spect while other states are going for
ward-but she is making mighty slow
progress. There are some counties in
this state which have not felt the in
conveniences and financial loss of the
present wet season. Take Greene coun-
~ for instance. There are roads in
condition as not to be disturbed by
heavy rains. Greene county's roads
have made her famous.
Unfortunately, Iowa has few Greene
counties She should have ninety nine
OF them. The Capital proposes to use
its influence in favor of permanent
highways. This newspaper will well
come communications on the subject
and will throw open it's columns to
letters from readers who have given
the question special thought. Keep
Your letter within a reasonable lengt IN
and let us hear from you.

Herrick's home state, cooperative a.
sociatjons in many localities over
shadow local banks and do business
with farmers on equal, II not better,
, terms than other loan agencies.
The distinguishing feature of co-op-
Grafton along this line lies in the abb
sence, of dependence. Every member
works out his own degree of success,
encouraged by the example Of his as
sociates and given practical assistance
in proportion to his industry and
thriftiness. Here in Nebraska there
is no obstacle to farmers organizing
and operating associations and achiev.
ing in some degree the success and
confidence represented by resources
of s4o,000,0O0 in seventy associations
organized under state laws. The bor-
rowing home maker must give first
mortgage security. Safety requires
similar security from borrowing farm
ers. There may be no difference in
the interest charge over other loan.
ing agencies, but a loan as high as
two-thirds of the appraised value Of
the security is permissible and the
borrower shares in the profits.
The borrowing farmers with only
chattel security necessarily pays a
higher rate for money, but even so his
crop and stock gives him much high
er credit than the average working
mans chattels. The borrowing power
of the workman as we'll as the farmer
depends ON the security, and its char
acter determines the interest charge
In both instances real estate security
commands the lowest money rate. Each
class in their way have within reach
the cooperative means of achieving
their aims, and their success Is meas
ured by the enegry, intelligence and
thrift directing their activities.

An interesting feature which so far
the Iowa towns have not taken into
considera ton is the amount of deposits
actually owned by residents of the
municipality. So far all The towns
claiming to exceed the record of the
Arizona town are in wealthy farming
neighborhoods and it is reasonable to
assume that a goodly portion of the
bank deposits are owned by farmers,
their wives and their children.

HUGHES ON FAIRGROUNDS.

ltilnlOn AQNeIllSeT.I
Justice Hughes of the United States
supreme court is one of the nations
most enthusiastic advocates of the
playground. The supreme justice be-
lieves that the public recreation
ground for boys and girls stands for
fair play. and exerts a splendid in
fiuence on our future men and women.
Here are Mr.. Hughes ideas on the
subject, tersely expressed:
Il do not know of any better way
to teach boy to be honorable and
straight than to give him chance to
play with his comrades. In the play
ground he learns without any susges-
ton of rebellion against instruction
and precept and preaching. He learns
it because he, does not want anybody
else to cheat him, and is down on the
boy that does not play fair, and in the
long run, because he is down on the
boy that does not play fair, he Will eS-
tablish standards of conduct which we
must maintain in the community and
particularly in our great cities. If there
is one thing that we need more than
other it is the constant emphasis
among our citizens of that spirit OF
fair play, that willingness 20 give and
take, that generosity in defeat and that
lack Of assertiveness in victory which
we identify with true sport. and which
is learned best of all in childhood upon
the playground
Clinton has several hundreds Of
playground boosters who will heartily
indorse the sentiment of the supreme
justice
