"The day has arrived for road adj
ministration under men holding Office
solely upon their merit" is the broad
and very sound principle laid down
by Logan Waller Page, Director of
the United States Office of Public
Roads and Rural Engineering in an
address to the American Association
for the Advancement of Science in
Philadelphia. Not men chosen be-
cause of their value as political
workers but men noted for their con-
structive ability. What difference
does 1T make to the farmer hauling
his crops to market, or to the mer-
chant transporting his merchandise
home, or TO the traveller journeying
from place to place whether the road
was built and is maintained by a
Democrat or a Republican or a Pro-
gressive? The road is the thing.
Yet, speaking generally and of the
country at large, road construction
and road maintenance have been
largely committed to more or less
desirable political workers with the
result that not less than $4,000, 900
is wasted annually by the careless
ness and incompetence of the men
charged with the supervision and adj
ministration of the public highways
of the country. 1t is not so much
the fault of the road officials them
selves,-they want the money wasted
upon them in the way of salary, and
need it--but of the political system
which makes their selection possible;
and before there can be any substan-
tial Improvement in the character and
efficiency of the men the system must
be destroyed.
There are in the United States
three thousand counties and approx
mately one hundred thousand local
road officials, supervisors who do not
know how to supervise, overseers who
lack both the technical knowledge and
administrative ability to oversee, in
sufficiently paid at any price for
what they can do, and who are elected
by the people because they are "good
fellows" or they are hard workers in
party affairs, and they must have

recognition" bother the roads and
the purposes for which they are OPEN
ed. Time was not SO long ago when
In some Of the States superintendent
OF education, who signed their names
with cross mark were not frequent
ly selected because they had been

Ii the public roads of the country are
to be accepted as proof of the fitness
of the road officers they are condemn
ed by their work. EK
Tn whole business has been run
ming at loose ends-what should have
been everybody's business has been
nobody's business. There has been
no continuity of effort, no organiza-
ton of the working units, no general
planning in the public interest, no
seat of authority, no care in admin
istration. Changes in the politica,
control Of States and counties and
districts are followed by changes in
the political complexion of road Off
Gals without regard to the Compel
ency of the new men selected for this
work or the efficiency and experience
of the men displaced to make a poll
teal holiday. Within the last ten
years arbitrary changes on political
grounds have been made in the con-
troll of the engineering work in the
State highway departments of Ariz-
ona, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Michigan, Maryland, Missouri, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, Washington and West
Virginia. In the last fifteen years
nine changes have been made in the
control of the highway department of
New York, and the most of these
changes have been made on partisan
political grounds. Doubtless some of
the changes have been justified be-
cause of the efficiency or other unfit
ness of the men holding Office; but in
the main the highway departments
have been regarded as offering con-
venient refugees for deserving" work.

POULTRY
CONSULTING DEPARTMENT
Feeds For Poultry

TecuS r VI tOuitTy
Though the feeding of poultry is a
much debated subject in poultry hus-
bandry, there is no one best feed or
combination of feeds. Results depend
almost as much upon the ability of
the feeder and the methods Of feeding
as on the kinds of grain.
The simplest feed-mixtures and
home grown grains should usually be
selected, the rations varying with
changes in the market price of grains.
1t is advisable for most poultry rails
ers to mix their own feeds, as in this
way they can control the proportion
of the various ingredients and obtain
the precise mixture that they desire.
If, however, one desires to purchase
prepared feeds, information concern
ing the. different commercial articles
may usually be secured from the State
experiment station. Most experiment
stations will analyze poultry feeds
and report on the different commercial
preparations sold by dealers in their
States.
Poultry feeds may be divided for
convenience into FIVE general classes
First, grains, both whole and cracked ;
second, ground grains, fed in the
form of a mash; third, meat feeds
fourth, mineral feeds; and fifth, green
feeds. Corn, cracked corn, wheat
and wheat screenings, oats, barley,

have taken the place Of messenger
boys and quick delivery of mail. No
one will agree that there are not more
miles of telegraph wire in use today
than ten years ago, nor can 1t be said
that there are fewer messenger boys
yet the telephone is in almost every
business house and in many house
holds doing work for which there was
little demand few years ago.
The farm tractors will simply fit in
to the greater needs of the country
and will do the heavier chores and
drudgery which horses are little fit
for. They will not replace the horses,
but will simply assist them and make
life easier for them. They will also
enable farmers to breed better horses
because their mothers will be kept for
that purpose instead Of spending half
or more of their time in doing heavy
work. Let us not dream too long of
the horseless farm. 1t is a long way
off, as yet.-Farm Machinery

Those Americans in Canada

During the last six or seven years
about 100000 of Americas finest
young farmers, the majority of them
from Iowa, Nebraska, and other
states In that section went to western
Canada to take up homesteads. Now
thousands Of them are breaking NOV
ing records to get back to their old
homes in the United States. They are
fleeing from threatened CONSUMPTION.
No doubt there is good land In Can
ada, but there is no farming land
there any better than can be found in
the United States. 1t must be adj
nitted that Canada's plan ot adver-
tang was most successful. for it re-
suited in filling the dominion with the
hest and most energetic people on
exrth-the young farmers of America.
1t required the war in Europe to
make these Americans see where they
had made a mistake. They have no
desire to leave their families in Can
ada and go to the scene OF the con-
flict as soldiers. They have no more
interest in the war than they bad
when they lived in their native land,
and they are coming back. 1t Is safe
to assume that few of them will ever
roam again.-The Oklahoman.
NO HOrSeleSS Farm
Those prophets and sons of prop
bets who predict that horses on the
farms will soon be only a memory,
will have passed away, and pleasing
epitaphs will be carved into the stones
which mark their resting places, long
before their prophecies become fact.
The introduction of the farm tractor
will not, as some believe, remove the
horses from the fields and from their
pastures. The advent of the street
cars did not have that effect upon
horses, neither did the bicycle nor au-
. tomobile. Today there are more
horses in this country than there were
ten years ago, and prices are consider
ably higher. The one thing that the
farm tractor will do is to supply the
need of power on ten farms which
horses can not give. Take away the
farm tractors which are in use today
and several hundred thousand horses
would be required to replace them, or
If horses could not be had the lands
would have to go unplowed and until
ed. The number of tractors now with
in use will be multiplied many times
within the next ten years but there
will be as many horses in-this country
then as there are today, andp rices
will be even higher than now,
Farm tractors are becoming a nee
costly, just as electric street cars have
become-the same as telephones have
supplanted the telegraph in way and

pies. The men charged with the work
should be selected solely on the
ground Of merit. There would be a.
much sense in choosing all highway
engineers and supervisors because
they are Presbyterians or Roman
Catholics as there would be in select
ing them because they were all Re-
publicans Of Democrats.
AS the most effective way Of pro-
tecting the State highway depart
ments from the destructive influence
of partisan politics Mr.. Page suggests
that each department he placed un-
der the control of a non-partisan, I'M
paid commission, party ex-ofilco and
party appointed, and representative
of the education and scientific institu-
tions Of the respective states, the APP
pointed members of the commissions
of approved fitness for the work in
hand. He would entrust to these COM
missions the selection Of the chief
technical road officers, their selec-
ton to be made wholly on the ground
of qualifications as proved by a COM
petitive examination, just as the Of
ficers of the Government at Washing
ton are selected for their fitness. He
would take the roads of the country
out of politics, the bane of all well
directed and successful administra-
ton of the most important service.
He would not interfere with the ini-
tiative and voice of the countries af-
fairs further than to require that the
men selected to direct the country
road should be chosen only after pass
ing such examinations as the State
highway department acting in CO.
operation with the civil service de-
partment of the State might require.
"The intelligent application of the
merit system in securing skilled SUI
pervision in road work is the only
promising method of eliminating poll
ties from road administration"
Surely, the old plan has been tried
long enough. That it has failed, the
fact that there are in the whole Unit
ed States today only about 10000
miles of really first-rate public high
ways proves beyond question. An
other fact that is worth noting is the
waste of $50,000,000 annually in road
building and maintenance because of
the inefficiency of those charged with
the work.
