activities Of John the Baptist, who
was boldly preaching the necessity
OF baptism at his own hands as of
one having particular authority. and
who was administering baptism by
immersion to all repentant appli-

would be followed by a higher en-

Forty State Projects.
Under the provisions of the act 40
states have submitted 1873 projects in
volving a total of approximately 1,730
miles, according to the secretary's re-
port. OF this number 1870, embrac-
ing lisp miles and calling for an es-
timated expenditure including federal,
state and local funds of S7,947, 114.50,
have been approved. These projects
involve federal funds to the extent Of
S3,455, 57376, or 23.T5 per cent of the
total allotment, S1455O,OO0 to the
various states for the fiscal year 1917
and 1913. Six projects covering 40
miles have been disapproved. Agree
ments have been entered into or are
IN the course of preparation in the case
of 81 projects, aggregating 1874 miles
and involving $19O,600S4 of federal
funds and total Of 80, 225, 944.74.
The full effect Of the federal aid
road act cannot be measured by any
comparison of funds expended In 1916
and made available for 1917, as many
of the legislatures did not meet until
early in the calendar year 1917. 1t Is
significant, however, says the secre-
tary, that while the expenditure Of
state funds in 1915 aggregated $4O,-
969, 900 1t is estimated that the expendi-
ture of state funds in 1917 will reach
approximately S60OO0,OO0. or an in
crease of nearly so per cent. These
funds are distinct from local expendl-
lures and indicate an advance In state
participation In highway work.

BUSINESS METHODS IN NEED
Many Of Farm Failures Doubtless Due
to Lack Of Science-Farmer
Would Produce More.

Much emphasis is being placed upon
science In farming We are often
told that If we would use more SCI
ence we would produce more. There
is much truth in this. Many OF our
failures doubtless could be traced to
lack of science-that Is, lack Of
classified knowledge.
Business methods are indispensable
to profitable farming. without sound
business judgment, correct business
habits and safe business practice, 1t
will be a very difficult matter to use
science for profitable farming.
