OF state and federal aid that we could
not get at any other time, and our
people are sorely in need of the mon
ey."
II. &c. Earring Of the highway board
gave assurance at the meeting of the
commissioners with the cooperative
bureau Wednesday afternoon, that
there was good money to be made on
the highways under present wage
scales. and further assured those
present hat the commissioners would
cooperate with the farmers to procure

o. II. Baum, attorney for the com
missioners of the highway and vice
president of the First National bank
gave the information hat the banks
of the county would be glad to help
any deserving farmer who gave as
surance that he would work out his
loans on the highways of the district.
Federal aid Is so remote that II is
not to be considered" he said. state
aid has not materialiZed and We should
not depend upon 1t In any degree. We
have left then only a few threads to
work with. If the farmers and the
commissioners and the farm bureau
and the banks can get together, pick
up all these loose threads they may
make u spool. And unless We have
enough to make a spool there is no
hope that we can all survive the fall
and winter and prepare for another
harvest"
f. A. Zlek, president of the farm bu-
reau said that the farm bureau vas
ready and anxious to cooperate with
the commissioners and would appoint
n committee from that organization to
meet and advise with the commission
ers. He expressed the opinion that the
farmers and commissioners should
work in closer harmony.
Bruce Lampson, county agent, said
IL favor the bonds in every respect
We need the roads the worst way and
no one travels them more than l and
knows how badly they really are
needed. l am working for them and
would like to see them assured at the

that the differences between Great

regarding Fiume and the Dalmatian
coast may yet be settled with full
accord.
Signor Orlando, Italian premier,

Rome, where they have been since
they quilted the peace conference
more than a week ago, owing to in
ability to obtain what Italy consid-
cred concessions which would satis-
fy Italian ambitions.
With the Italian question settled,
almost complete unanimity of senti-
ment would prevail in the peace
conference. The obstacle represent
