: covered too thin, and is above thu
grade of the road at it's tOpmost part
So when the standard of roads is Sc
by our road supervisors and commits
sioners, an embargo is also placed
upon the enterprising men who
might bring in modern outfits II
create wealth in the county.
| The county is suffering from lack
of quick transportation and will con
tinue to suffer from that cause. Not
only transportation by rail but by
the short haul from farm to siding
where cars are loaded. Millions OF
pounds of potatoes and beets have
been lost thru lack of facilities and
roads fit to move them on. Time
is precious, prices are high, and the
losses are increasing as the war
stringency increases. Most people
shake their heads when anything is
said about expanding money on the
roads during the period of the war,
and yet we shall keep on paying the
penalty of having poor roads.
| A number of enterprising men in
the county have purchased tractors
and trucks, and while the most prac-
teal tractors will probably be of
medium weight, the trucks that are
supposed to make profits by reason
of the speed they attain as we'll as
by the heavy loads they carry, can
not make time on the roads In their
present condition because the roads
have not been dragged to keep the
holes filled, and it is like driving a
truck over an endless wash-board to
drive it over our roads either in town
or out. A man who goes about the
county delivering gasoline to the
dealers with a truck, comes in at
night with himself and his machine
shook sup worse than a cat at quilt
ing-bee, and the owner of the truck
knows that owing to the lack Of road
dragging at the right time, his in
vestment in the truck is going for
naught. The machine is being jolted
to pieces and he is unable to make
speed as he expected.
If Bingham county is to be made
a good place, if it is to be well gov
erned, If it is to be made inviting
for the enterprising fellows to come
into, If it Is to encourage the spirit
Of enterprise in it's citizens generally,
it must lay down the rule to road
supervisors that roads must be
dragged during and right after the
showers, and this dragging must be
done as vital part of their duties,
not as pastime. Bingham county
should have county engineer to
have charge of all roadwork year
after year, and follow a uniform and
settled policy instead of having every
road overseer working on a plan of
his own. We should make arrange
ments to borrow a million dollars
as soon as we can, and make roads
and bridges that are inviting to all
kinds of vehicles, and then we should
arrange to expend large sums every
year for maintenance.

SWIFT CHANGES
OF TODAY

Changes are coming swiftly now in
America. A war always brings its
changes in a nations life, and the
more wide-awake and progressive
they are, the more sweeping will be
the changes.
War, cruel as it is, brings about
many changes for the better as well
as much retrogression. Some Of the
countries of the old world have in
dulged in wars until they scarcely
recover from one struggle till they
are plunged into another and they
never got en0ught vitality to become
progressive. America with it's as
semblage of adventures and cour-
ageous people from everywhere,
with its liberal form Of government
and protection for inventions and
discoveries, has originated new
things for the world, and is still do
ing it. There has been such long
perod of progress in all lines Of hu-
man activity that we have INDUCED
in he expensive luxury of unneces-
sary variety of vast number of
things. For instance, the automobile
in its short life has come out in such
infinite varieties, that since the gov
eminent has taken over SO many Of
the factories or accepted the offer Of
them for war use, it becomes neces-
sary to curtail the manufacture Of
autos, and this will force manufac-
turers to combine the best features
Of all cars into few classes-pleas-
ure cars, business cars, cars for
swift traveE cars for heavy loads,
etc., and soon we shall have, like the
liberty motor, the essential features
of all, made in one of a few classes.
The necessities of the times will
force these things, and the opportun-
ity to produce them on the Ford
plan in vast quantities exactly alike
will make for economy.
Just now a great change is form
ing in the matter of writing-papers
used in correspondence and business
transactions. There are different
classes Of writing paper, such as
bonds and flats, the former made
partly from rags, and the latter
made from pulps containing no such
fiber. The bond papers are made in
more than 100 brands, and each
brand is made in from three to six
or eight sizes, and several weights,
or thicknesses, and from three or
four to dozen shades of color. All |
this calls for machinery and formulas |
for making upwards of a thousand |
different products, each requiring the !
most exacting attention to detail.
It requires vast sums of money to
carry on the work in all these

plants, vast quantities of materials

men and advertising to market it.
and then the dealers have to select
from this endless array of different
brands, weights, colOrs and sizes
and be loaded with too many varie-
ties, with the prospect that some OF
them will lose favor with the public
and go stale on the dealers shelves.
When we consider that all of these
papers are good in their place, and
that a dozen brands will answer all
the sensible requirements of the
nations needs, and that the govern
ment is Investigating to see which
ones they will permit to go on manu-
featuring in greater quantity, and
which mills they will put to making
something else, it is clear that the
nation is about to take q step that
will save millions of dollars in the
little matter of stationary alone,
and yet have people supplied with
the best of each kind that has ever
been produced. 1t will release an
army of people who have been du-
plicating each others work. and 1t
will release vast amount Of capital
for other activities. s
That has been said of autos and
paper can be said of shoes,
tools, engines, pumps,
tractors, and an almost infinite ar
ray of other things. The war has
brought about necessity; the neces-
'ity mas clarified our vision and our
Judgment, and we are on the road
% such national advancement as
'nly our widest dreamers have had
