Des Moines, Sept. 2.-The weekly

The week was favorable for work

but the weather was too cold for corn.
The average temperature was about u
degrees below the normal and light to

in many localities, especially over the

amount of damage done by the frost.
but it Is safe to say that over the
greater part of the state the damage
was almost inappreciable. but on low
ground, over the northeastern and
north central counties corn must have
been injured some.
On account of threshing being de-
layed. there has been little or no fall

careful scrutiny of the highways will
be made in order to see which is the
most permanent for use to connect the
rural districts with the urban points.
The scheme provides for the payment
of one-third of the cost of making the
highways, while the state benefited
pays the balance.
One of the most useful results of
the government cooperation in AIRY
ing on this work comes from the les
son that local authorities learn of con-
tinued maintenance of highways in
proper condition. A few years ago the

that is, the plan of keeping experts at
work on each section thruout the
year. taking the stitch in time that
saves ninety nine instead OF letting
defects grow without attention until
they command attention and It is ex-
pensive. TO-DAY this' plan is coming
to be generally understood and more
and more adopted. It makes main
tenance not only far more sa satisfactory,
but much cheaper.
There is accommodating reason to an
ticipate that before many years the
federal government will launch into
rural highway building on large
scale. in cooperation with the county
and state authorities. The demand for
such government leadership comes up
with increasing insistence from the
country and is more difficult to deny
each succeeding congress. The econ
omists insist that a rural highway APP
preparation would be the most entic-
ing sort of pork barrel and dread
to see the national government COM
nit itself to a program in which bill
lions could be spent. and in which the
end would never be reached But the
demand is urgent and not a few ma
tional legislators believe that in the
long run federal domination would
represent actual economy.
