THE HORSE STILL INDISPENSA.
BILE

As yet the mtor truck does not ap-
pear to foreshadow the retirement of
the horse, declares a writer in the
Providence Journal. On the con-
trary, the market prices in Boston in
dicate that the horse is more than
holding his own against the new COM
petition The local demand for hor-
ses is greater than it was a year ago
and higher prices are predicted.
The steam locomotive, the electric
motor, and the bicycle never drove
the horse off the roads. Automobiles
to the number of hundreds of thous-
ands are in daily use and there is no
lack of work for the horse. The ad
vantages of heavy motor trucks have
been proved, and yet more horses
than ever are in demand The ex-
PLANTATION is that as there is enough
hauling for all classes of vehicles and
that under certain conditions the
horse is the most available means for
moving commodities

MILLIONS FOR
GOOD ROADS

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Under
the federal good roads bill, which
was finally agreed to in conference
form in the house today and there
fore is an accomplished piece of leg
islation, road building should receive
a very decided impetus in the state
Of Ohio.
There becomes ava liable for road
building purposes in Ohio during the
fiscal year beginning next Saturday
$193,700, which will be Augmented
in each of the following fiscal years
in the following amounts:
1917-18, $3874O0; 1918-19 $751;
100; 1919-2O, $77h 500; 1920-2I
$968,500.
This makes a total OF $2,9O5,5OO
to be paid out by the federal govern
ment for road building in Ohio dur
ing the five fiscal years beginning
July l, next
Must Give Dollar for Dollar
AS the state or local communities
must match the federal appropria
tions dollar for dollar, this means
that a total of S5,811,000 is made
available for the improvement of the
Ohio highways. The plans will all
be worked out under the state high
way department. The apportionment
is based on three factors-area, pop
ulation and number of rural delivery
and star routes. On a basis of all
three factors, Ohio will receive 1874
per cent of the total appropriations
which are S5,OOO,OOO for the first
year, $10,000,OOO for the second
year, $15,OOO,0OO for the third year,
2O,O00,000 for the fourth year and
$25, 100000 for the fifth year.

Many communities hold Chautau-

the Chautauqua assume so much
magnitude. so much of interest as

interest, Notwithstanding there are
Chautauquas all around us none Of
the other Chautauquas are held in a
beautiful grove. none OF the others
are held on the shores of great lake
as is the Celina assembly.
Nowheres else is there the de-
lightful social life, the camping and
cottage experiences with all the lux
uries Of home, and where the oppor-
tunities for rest, outdoor recreation.

in reach.
