position of director Of physical educa-

To say that East Chicago as city as
well as the school city Will miss this
efficient and cultured man from our

The boys especially are losing a friend
and adviser whose place can be filled
with great difficulty If at all. Mr.. Cox
has been the one man in the city to
keep alive and foster the boy scout
movement under every discourag cement.
He has been perhaps more active than
any other man in raising a three year
campaign fund to put the boy scout
program across in this city.
1t is with great regret that the city
will witness his departure for his new

RAISE MORE SHEEP
EFFORT BEING MADE TO sTiMU.
LATE THE INDUSTRY.

l. N. Taylor of the County Farm
Bureau is making a special canvas by
mail of the farmers of the county,
who are engaged in the keeping or
breeding of sheep on their farms and
from the replies received so far, over
eighty farmers have been listed. The
idea of this canvas is TO find out the
forces that would be interested in the
organization of a County Association
that would cooperate with the Farm
Bureau, in the increasing Of the sheep
industry of the county. To this end ar
engagements have been made for the
coming of L. G.. Foster the Marketing
Agent of the Extension Division of
the State Agricultural College at
Ames and he will be in Oskaloosa on
January G, 1919, for the purpose OF
getting in touch with these farmers,
so that a definite plan or organization
can be perfected. This movement is
not in opposition to the low Sheep
Breeders and Wool Growers Associa-
ton. but by cooperative work TO
strengthen the development of this
industry in the county and state.

In other words, the states, taken as a group. paid from their revenues, all their current expenses, interest, and outlays, and either re-

 States in Which Revenues Exceed ed Expenses.
 In all but of the states the rev. enue receipts exceeded the payments for current governmental expenses and interest, and in 2S the revenues exceeded the total expenditures for governmental costs including inter- est and outlays. These 2S states were New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Con- necticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana Wisconsin, Minnesota, North ! Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia North Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas. Mon tana, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Washington, and Ore- gon. The greatest excess, S3,99O, ,148, was shown by Texas. Other states in which the excess was more than $1,- 000,0 were Connecticut, with s3,- 700, ,573; Minnesota, s2,592.073; Okla homa, S2,11o,977; Montana $2,106,- 953; New Jersey, $2,033, ,524; Penn sylvania, $1, SS4,676; and Indiana, S1,- 535, ,344.

 The total outlays for permanent i'm provements aggregrated $67. 7.936,105. Of this amount s19S5O,269. or about 30 per cent, was spent for the con- struction of new roads, and the per manent improvement-such as ma cadamizing or ' paving-of existing ones \ In addition, S15,599, ,029 was apportioned by the states to their counties, municipalities, and other minor civil divisions for use in the construction, improvement, and main tenance of roads. and a considerable portion of this sum was employed in construction and permanent inn

Only 19 states expended money directly on the construction and improvement of roads during the fiscal years, but a number of the other states apportioned sums to counties, municipalities. etc, which were spent in the construction and improvement of roads.
