road funds to know what Is available
for any particular project, where funds
have been or where existing balances
are to be expended.
3. Lack of any systematic practice
in handling funds among most coun-
ties makes it very difficult to carry out
over even single year any persistent
maintenance policy, because funds Of
ficially obligated for maintenance pur-
poses are not protected against spo-
radio and irregular drafts for miscel-
laneous purposes. The greatest like
lihood consequently exists everywhere
that there will be no balance in the
maintenance fund in the last half or
third of the year. although only part
of the fund allotted may have been
spent.
A. Local labor available for mainte-
nance work is made dissatisfied by
the constant, unintelligent and unfa-
vorable criticism of those using the
road.
s. Maintenance continuing over a
period of years-the ultimate indis-
pensable condition of effective main
tenance-is jeopardized by lack of ac-
counting control that will prevent
spending next years current income
in this year.
6. The lack of skilled supervision
in construction and the effect of this in
increasing the cost or in making ef-
fective maintenance impossibly expen-
sive is everywhere seen.
Z. The county authorities are COM
monty opposed to following sugges-
tions for maintenance that involve ty-
ing up road funds in any way, such
as purchasing materials in advance to
store along the road for making re-
pairs or maintaining the road surface.

MUCH WASTE OF FARM LANDS
Suggested by Country Gentleman That
ReckIessIy Heavy Maintenance
Cost Be Avoided.

The Country Gentleman makes the
sensible suggestion that prodigal
waste of land and recklessly
heavy maintenance cost be avoided by
American roadmakers. Upon a four
rod government highway "one dozen
farm wagons could be, by little
crowding, set side by side" and each
mile Of government highway contains
eight acres of land, much of it good
land, capable OF growing 500 bushels
of corn" while thousands of miles of
the best highways of France, Ger
many and England are but one rod
wide.
The Country Gentleman objects to
Iowa devoting 416,000 acres of the
best farming land in the world" to
growing a sufficient assortment of
weeds to seed the farms that lie
along the states 100000 miles of pub
lie road.
1t may be added that a well-main-
tained road rod or a rod and half
wide, with trees along either side, is
much more agreeable to drive over
than a road three or four rods wide,
which can never be shaded and must
always be an intolerably hot sun re-
fector during summer Left unoiled
1t is glaring and trying to the eyes.
Oiled, 1t gives off heat like stove

The Dubois Well.

The Dubois well in 1911 near
Lone Grove is drilling at 2,250 feet.
The formations are said not to be
favorable, but the fraternity is inter
ested in seeing a deep test drilled
there to ascertain if the lower form
ations are not determined by the
surface indications, and that deep
sand exists. While this view is held
by some, there are others who are
skilled in geology who believe that
the surface indications are favorable
for prolific oil sands at this location.

Better Prices Expected.

Tulsa, Okla, June with the
demand for gasoline growing with
every day of summer because of the
increased use of automobiles, trac'
tors and farm trucks, Oklahoma oil
operators believe the oil market,
which has remained stationary for
several weeks, will take an upward
trend in a few days and will continue
to advance until the market reaches
81 a barrel at least. Oklahoma oil
new is bringing $1.5O barrel, the
maximum price in fourteen years.
Although several prospective pools
are being developed in Oklahoma and
Kansas and wildcatting is in progress
in many localities in the two states,
the production of oil in the Mid
Continent territory is steadily declin-
ing, and unless some large field IS
uncovered soon the total production
will show a decided slump by the end
of the year.
Because of the fact that the de-
mand for refined crude production is
on the decline several experienced
operators predict that Oklahoma oil
will eventually command from $3.50
to SO a barrel.
Development in progress in Noble
county, which year ago was looked
upon as rank wildcat territory, may
reveal a field of considerable proper
tions. While a number of strong
wells have been drilled at Augusta

MANAGEMENT OF GOOD ROADS
Specialists of Department Of Agri
culture Place Responsibility for
Highway Defects.

Where a county builds good road
and soon lets it become rutty, washed
out or uneven. who or what is prin-
cipally to blame? AS result of a
study of conditions in number OF
counties, road specialists of the United
States department Of agriculture are
inclined to place the responsibility
upon the following defects in road
management, some or all Of which are
found in all counties where good roads

Lincoln McKinlay, who has been

Kan. Mr.. McKinlay has been, inter-

made a close study of geology in a

by oil is made by mixing glycerine
and lltharge to the consistency of a
thick paste. This will be found very
handy in repairing cracked oil reser.

between two metal plates. The cement
should be applied as soon as it is
mixed, since It hardens very quickly.

Whereas, it has pleased the All
Wise Father to take from us our
friend and co-worker, Mr. Troy c.
Sykes, who has been chairman of our
board of education since the incep-
tion of our school and by his energy,
forethought and love for humanity
helped to make it possible for our
six hundred children to have an op.
portunity to develop those prlnci-
pies which tend to make noble men
and women, as evidenced by the
magnificent and well equipped school
building which has just been COM
pleted; therefore,
Be it resolved, that in the death of
Mr.. Sykes, we, the faculty and stu,
dents of Dundee public school deeply
feel his loss to our school and com
munity, and while we think with sad
ness of 'the cradle and the tomb,
alas. so Nigh" we humbly bow to
Him who said, Come unto me all
