DEATH RATE HIGHEST AMONG
BABES OF WORKING MOTHERS

The death rate in the United
States among babies of mothers who
work outside their homes far ex-
ceeds the infant mortality where
the mother is not so employed
This is brought out in the annual
report Of the federal children's bu-
reau, which is conducting an inquiry
into the social and economic causes
of babies deaths. The report shows
an average infant death rate of
1874 out of every 1000 babies in a
steel-making and coal mining town
as against a rate of eighty-four out
of every 1000 in a residential sub
urb An even greater contrast is
found between the most congested
sections and the choicest resident
section in each of these two COM
munities.

"Two-BIT" FAIR FOR sALINA
Adult Admission Price Lowered and
Children Free

Salina Journal: "Two-bits" will
be the admission price to the 1916
Salina fair. This was decided by the
board of directors of the fair asso-
citation at a meeting yesterday, and
at the same time 1t was decided
that childrens under 12 would be
admitted free.
Considerable discussion was de-
voted to plans for the entertain
ment, and to the probable date.
These matters, and the appointment
of committees, were left for future
settlement, although it was decided
that the fair would be held some
time after September 10, and that
the dates would be determined
largely by the dates of the Hutch
inson, Topeka and surrounding en-
tertainments.

KANSAS ROAD SITUATION
Big Dimension of Roads in State is
Depth Says Engineer

During the last five years" ac-
cording to w. S. Gearheart, state
highway engineer, kansas has built
and has been maintaining the finest
system Of earth roads in the world,
but about ten months ago, the bot
tom dropped out and the most i'm
port dimension of these highways
has been their depth. The weather
conditions of 1918 and 1914 were
favorable for the maintainance of
earth roads and many Kansans be-
gan to think that properly graded
earth roads would answer any pur-
pose.
"However, it is now clearly evil
dent that if these main roads rad
iating from market centers and
connecting cities, are to be maintain
ed in the eastern part of the state
as 965-day highways, it will be nee
essary to surface them with more
permanent UldI6Ildlo Lunh PuuNASN
earth.
Eastern Kansas Is especially
adapted to general farming D and
dairying, and a system of first class
highways leading to the market
cecnters is one of the first essentials
in the successful carrying out of
this type of farming.
"The kind of road to construct in
any locality depends essentially up
on two things, namely, the kind OF
surfacing material available in that
community and the kind and amount
of traffic for which the road is be-
ing built.
Choosing the type of road for a
locality should be done by an ex-
pert engineer, while the construc-
tion of the road should be placed
under the supervision of corps OF
expert engineers who have been
given the power to get results"

MEN GO AFTER
sIsAL TRUST AT SESSION

A congressional investigation OF
the sisaI trust which is controlling
the supply OF material for making
binder twine will probably be de-
manded by the Western Retail In
plement and Hardware association
which will meet in Kansas City Jan
uary lila. over 1000 dealers are
expected at the session.
Another problem that will come
in for discussion is the plan of the
manufacturers to sell implements
on a merchandise basis, taking their
cue from the automobile business
which is handled on a cash basis.
1t is pointed out that the farmer
often pays cash for motor car
which is worth more than all his
farm machinery yet buys the i'm
plements on long time. The dealers
will discuss methods of readjusting
their business to the new order of
selling. The average farm has $500
worth OF implements and it has
been the custom to get nine to u
months time. This is to be short
ened to 80 or so days.
The office of the secretary, H. J..
Hodge, will be opened at the Coates
House Monday morning. His assist
ants will be j. P. Brilliant, j. e.
