l submit Is necessary to arrive at
this conclusion. What was said IN
the New Mexican article should be
here repeated, in order to make
matters clear: that Is. in order to
avoid duplication in arriving at the
cost of government, there should
be deducted the payments from the
current school fund because such
payments are included in the ex-
penditures for schools in the analy-
sis of county payments. Payments
for state educational and other in
situations, as well as payments for
the investment of state permanent
funds, might also be properly de-
Quoted from these totals. OF course
all of these payments are ultimate
ly chargeable against the state, no
matter how they are classified, but

Santa Fe, N. M, June Is, 20.
Editor Morning Journal,
Albuquerque, n. NJ.
My Dear Sir:
note with interest the editorial
on the short ballot in your issue of
June IA, referring to a letter of
mine on that subject In a recent
number Of the New Mt ;ican.
The fact that the association
committee, which proposed the
short ballot, refrained from men
tioning the recall, cannot be
charged to weakness. It's recon-
mendations are, on the contrary,
very clear. vigorous and direct.
They are quite the contrary OF
I weak and are put in unusually
forceiul and unequivocal language
There is no side-stepping and no
lack of candor in that report.
= Whether or not the recall would
add to or detract from the strength
of the Short ballot proposal, is a
subject seriously open to question,
one which l am sure some member
Z of the Lindsey committee will fully
discuss.
The aggregate figures noted in
the New Mexican of the receipts
and expenditures for the territory
and state during the past ten years
might. as you surmise, properly

this property keeps on increasing
at the rate it has been increasing,
the result instead of boosting and
encouraging development On the
lines you SO enthusiastically advo-
cate, will be just the opposite. AS
you say, retrenchment may be wise
or unwise, but 1t cannot be unwise
II it Is necessary. and that 1t is
virtually necessary here at this
time l am sure all will appreciate
after they have studied our situa-
ton a little more carefully.
In conclusion ! beg very respect
fully to call to your attention the
fact that while the assessed valua-
ton of property in the state has
constantly increased, going from

The opening of the cooperative
cheese factory at Radium on Aug. 4,
will mark an epoch in the dairy in
dustry Of Marshall county. 1t is a
long stride forward to better and more
profitable farming. 1t has been proven
again and again that successful farm
ing cannot be carried on without cattle.
The weed infested farms one often sees
is evidence of that fact. In order to
have cattle on the farm it is necessary
to have facilities for manufacturing and
marketing of dairy products. Marshall
county and this section Of the state
can and does grow the most nutritious
grasses. The clover, alfalfa, timothy,
millet, fodder corn and root crops that
can be raised here make this dairy
mans paradise.
The cheese factory has been built by
cooperative effort. Farmers and busi-
ness men have bought shares in the
enterprise, mostly in small amounts.
The factory therefore is the result of
a fine community spirit. The farmers
and business men Of Radium and vi
cinity have shown that by cooperation
it is possible to accomplish big things
for the betterment and upbuilding of
the community. The Radium people
have set pace that other communities
will do well to emulate,

The electric transmission line from
Crookston to Argyle which will be con-
structed this summer by the Minnesota
Electric Distributing Co., Of Minnepalis,
will be extended so as to supply
electricity to the village of Stephen
This line will pass within few miles
of Warren, and if it is possible to con-
tract for electricity at rate lower
than the cost Of manufacturing the cur
rent at our own plant, arrangements
should be made to secure electric SER
vice from this company. The matter
of conserving coal should be considered
also, as the Crookston plant is Oper-
ated by water power. If electric cur
rent could be sold at lower rate, more
heating and: cooking appliances would
be installed by consumers, and all the
benefits to: be derived from the plant
increased. We believe that the light
and water commission should give this
matter thorough consideration.

In driving around the country in this
part of the state one notices that very
little if any road work is being done on
county and township roads. The state
roads that come under the supervision
of the county board and highway en-
gineer are, most of them, kept in fairly
good shape by dragging, but the other
roads. which come under the care of
the township authorities are mostly
neglected. 1t seems to us there is great
lack of efficiency in the present system
Of road improvement by the townships
and that some better system and more
adequate means ought to be provided
for building and maintaining these
county and township roads, There
ought also to be some kind of co-ordin-
alton Of state and township road work.
For instance, this summer when the
state road to Argyle is almost impassa-
BILE by reason Of its being gravelled,
one Of the parallel township roads ought
to be dragged and kept in good repair
for road traffic to Argyle. The pro-
posed Babcock road amendment, which
we hope will be passed at the next elec-
tion will provide a good connecting
system of highways, and put Minnesota
in the front rank as regards roads, but
some attention must also be given to
the other roads. Some way should be
found whereby state, county and town.
ship road work may be co-ordinated and
made more efficient. The present
all.

Government inspectors attending the
11th annual convention Of the Mine In.
spectOrs' Institute OF America tell us
that there is enough hard coal to last
$50 to 200 years and soft coal to run
the country 5000 years, so why should
we worry about fuel. But coal in the
bowels Of the earth 1000 miles away
is not going to help much when the
thermometer registers 40 below and our
coal bin is empty. So after all we have
good reason to worry about the supply
as we'll as the price of coal for our
use next winter.
