work in other counties are in process
and details of the statewide drive should
be available before the Oklahoma City
campaign is completed.
AS a result of the efforts of the as.
sociation, Oklahoma county has appro-
priated $277 900, to which will be added
an equal amount of federal aid, and
this fund will provide for the building
of % to so miles of hard-surfaced roads
in Oklahoma county, to be begun this
year. The association has secured the
cooperation of several counties affected
by the Improvement, state and federal
aid sufficient to insure the construction
of permanent and adequate bridges
across the Canadian at Newcastle, Cal
vim and Bridgeport. The Newcastle
bridge is well along in construction.
Five main lines of motor travel
the state have been mapped or
logged" this year by the association,
reaching territory embracing Pratt,
Dodge City and Wichita, Kan; Fort
Smith, Ark, and Fort Worth and Dal-

Some Figures on Profits.

But the best information a. to
profits in the cold storage business
consists Of actual figures, and such
are published regularly by the federal
Department Of Agriculture. These
show, for instance, that in the season
Of 1915-1916 butter stored In June and
July at an average Of 1884 cents a
pound, sold from November to March
at an average Of 27.45 cents a pound.
giving gross profit Of OBI cents
pound. or scarcely enough to pay for
storage and nothing for net profit or
interest on investment. In 1916-1917
the gross profit was 7.79 cents
pound, and in 1917-1918 it was 5.86
cents. These gross amounts must
cover storage charges and interest on
the money tied up for several months
before the net profits are arrived at.
1t is apparent from these figures that
storing Of foods is an uphill and down.
hill business with its fat and lean
years, and affords an average profit
which Is not excessive in view of the
risks that are run. Figures on storage
eggs for 1915-1916 show a net loss Of
90 cents dozen; for 19161917, an
unusually prosperous year. the net
profits were 5.54 cents a dozen; and
for 1917-1918 there was net loss of
LAP cents dozen.
Extravagant charges Of manipula-
ton and control of prices are prepos-
terously absurd In view Of these sea-
sons Of losses. The ups and down of
profits simply indicate the hazards OF
the game; for the best laid plans of
men can not foresee when warm
spell may come which will start the
hens to laying, nor, on the other hand
cold snap that will shut off current
production entirely. Year In and year
out, as the figures would indicate, the
consumer pays but a modest sum for
the blessing Of cold storage, which
takes upon itself, with all risks in

FARMERS TODAY
No MARKS" FOR
The BUNC0 MEN

There was day, years ago, when
the farmer was considered inexperi-
enced in matters of business and a
mark" for the bunco man. Editor
ial writer's on city newspapers fro
quently published warning to the
farmer to beware of the gold brick
salesman. And even now this idea
about the farmer seems to prevail In
some quarters.
Just why warnings should be ad-
dressed to farmers rather than to the
residents Of tho metropolitan districts
never has been made clear. Tia mod
