Our Situation.
The situation which the United
States faces In It's efforts to maintain
fair distribution OF sugar to the Al.
lied world is as follows:
Sugar supplies throughout the eoun-
try, In homes, stores. factories and
bakeries are at a low ebb. We must
make Increased sugar shipments to the
Allies
Production Of American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap-
pointing.
Porto Rico crops have been cur
tailed.
Immense sugar stocks In Java can
not be reached on account Of the ship
ping shortage; ships are needed for
troop movements and munitions.
Army and Navy sugar requirements
have increased az we'll az those from
the Allies.
Most Industries using sugar have had
their allotment reduced by one half;
some will receive no sugar.
Households should make every ef.
fort TO preserve the fruit crop without
sugar. or with small amounts OF sugar.
Later, when the sugar supply Is larx-
er, the canned fruit may be sweetened
as II Is used.

War brings about many strange
conditions, none more remarkable
perhaps than the introduction OF
the mich goat into the back yards
OF American cities. A milch goat
averages quart and half OF milk
a day during the lactation period.
The demand for this milk in the
United States is principally for
children and invalids.

KNOWLEDGE THAT SHOULD BE
POSSESSED BY A COUNTY
ROAD ENGINEER
By Rodman Wiley, Commissioner
Department of Public Roads,
Frankfort. Ky.

Frankfort, Ky.
The question is frequently askec
what should a man know in order
10 be an efficient County Road En-.
gineer?
The fact is appreciated that in
some sections of the State, we have
only gravel roads, in other sections
macadam or earth roads. We be-
lieve a man should be best familiar
with the type of road that predomi-
mates in his county. Generally
speaking, he should first of all know
road work in detail, possess con-
siderable executive ability, be able
TO handle men and know how to
deal with the public and be thoroly
honest.
If any roads are to be graded, he
should know exactly what machin-
cry 10 purchase and how TO place
the men. and, if necessary, super
intend the work. If any stone is TO
he crushed. he should know how to
drill and load the holes and how
to distribute his forces so as TO
crush the stone in the most ecOnom-
ical way, should know how to figure
the cost of concrete in place, gravel
delivered at various points, stone
crushed and hauled along the road.
He should be thOroly familiar with
the construction of any type of
road which might be undertaken
in his county during the term of
his office: as a matter of fact, he
should know in detail each kind Of
work for which the county will
spend money under his direction.
A man might be a most excellent
lawyer and yet failure as a drug
gist. or, he might be successful
farmer and yet valueless as cashier
Of bank. A man might be a good
business man. thoroly honest and
Industrious, but il he does not
know the details Of road work, he
will not make a good road man. IL
has always been my experience that
it costs too much money TO educate |
a man in the art Of economical road
construction and maintenance and
it seems that the proper thing to
do is TO employ a man that knows
and. if such is done, it will be found
that good will result from all funds
invested in roads, that he will be
able TO save the county his salary
many times in the course of sea-
son. 1t is, therefore. hoped that not
only the county officials, but all
citizens Of the State will appreciate
the fact that they will receive a
dollars worth of work for every
dollar expended. if they will en-
ploy men thoroly trained in road
work and pay them a good salary.
rather than TO employ someone who
knows nothing whatever about
road work and spends most OF his
time lOafing around the court house
or attending TO his private business.
Inasmuch as the County Road En-
gineer handles 500 and sometimes
more of the cOunty's funds, it is an
important Office and the proper man
10 select for the place should re-
ceive the careful consideration Of
every taxpayer.
