SHOULD ORDER EARLY

People wanting peony blooms next
week should place their orders ear
ly. 1t is going to be difficult to
supply the demand unless the pub
lie understand how it is to be ham
died this year. Large orders can be
filled on certain days and smaller
ones sandwiched in between. Our
largest order is for thousand by
the Republican office for the open
ing of the chautauqua Tuesday even
ing, June %, and that will probably
clean up everything that is out in
bloom the first of the week. That
order was placed a year ago and
must be filled first, unless there is
some very pressing or urgent need
that would justify us in asking them
to cut their order short, and If they
consented, it would be cutting the
public short at the entertainment.
1t requires some careful planning to
supply everybody. Ring Mrs. Rum
BILE on the o. F. Smith phone, 423-
RI, and get your order on the book.

and thrown aside. AS most drivers
aim down the line that is smoothest
and busiest, they are rapidly wear
ing out two parallel paths that will
soon develop into wide ruts and
will require repairs. So long as peo-
pie insist upon driving at rate of
speed that makes their tires pick
up the surface of the road, includ-
ing stones up to the size of marbles,
there is only one kind of road that
will hold them, and that is the hard
surface made of cement, bitumen or
something that does not yield to
suction.
The people who travel the roads
should decide whether they want to
make high speed and buy new roads
often, or travel slower anr pay less
for road repairs.
All drivers should keep out of the
ruts If they would, but they don't.
And those fellows have no right to
find fault with any kind Of blunders
in road construction, for they would
destroy it, whatever it might be.

ing and damage to crors had result
ed from not having these connec-
tions made soon enough. Farmers
who left their irrigation or delayed
watering while they worked to dig
out pipes and connect them, doing
what the road builders should have
or would have done if they had got
around to it before irrigating time,
even tho they charged the county for
their work, were losing money be-
cause their time was worth a great
deal more in the field than working
for wages for the county. All of his
efforts to save these losses and en-
barrassments had only resulted in
his being treated like he was not a
citizen, when he talked to the en-
gineers about it.
Mr.. Shleman said that a good
many siphons had been built to con-
duct ditch water under the road, and
the cement risers built to conduct
the water into the earth ditch are
not long enough to make good
joint. Those along his lane have
been leaking or breaking out and
making trouble, and he believed they
were not made as they should have
been. If so, the workmen needed
better instructions as to how to build
up the earth banks where they join
cement walls.
At one place where he and his
neighbor had small ditch crossing
the road he asked that it be changed
and the new pipe placed on the
straight line where he thought it
would be better for the interests Of
the county. He made the request
early, but the local engineer, Mr..
Taylor, said he had no authority to
change it, and when it was put up
to Mr.. Stone, the superintendent Of
construction, he said it had to go
in where the old one was and no
changes would be allowed. 1t was
put in that way, and now Shelman
says they have to dig up the road
and place one where they asked to
have it placed, and the one put in

Inder Mr.. Stones directions will
be abandoned.
Mr.. Shelman does not think very
well of the manner in which con-
struction wark was handled in his
community, but he says the work
done by Contractor Bob Stone down
the line, was of the kind he APP
proved.
In speaking Of the grades and
their getting rough and bumpy, he
said it was unfortunate that such
large mass of dust was used in the
building the grades, and no amount
of rain or sprinkling would wet thru
to the bottom. He believed that 1t
might be years before the grades
would be soaked thru and settled
hard. He believes the new grades
will be pounded into holes this year
and much loss result. If people will
only keep out of the ruts and stave
off the day Of breaking it up into
holes it will save much loss and
much damage to cars as we'll as to
the roads.

Work on the Fort Hall bitulithic
pavement is progressing, and prac-
tically half the work is done. A
little over two and half miles of
the bitumen is laid and in use. A
long stretch of base is ready for

On several stretches of the new
road the earth was packed before
they could get it levelled, and cars
jolt and vibrate as they pass over
it, especially if they travel on high
speed. 1t is already too dry and
hard to successfully carve and pack
down, and it is sure to wear into
holes as the summer advances. The
faster people whizz over it, the soon

Where the roads are smooth and
perfectly graded, most of the cars
travel very rapidly, and the sue

REPORT ON ROAD
EXPENDITURES
Detailed Statement oil
Cost to County of
Highways

The following is a report of road
expenditures for the first four
months of 1920, showing what was
spent in each commissioner dis
trict and which division of the roads
from which local people can deter
mine what precincts it was used in.
We have heretofore published re-
ports of the expenditures in the same
districts, and when this is added to
it, the report is complete to the end
of April. If the interested persons
have preserved the reports already
published they have it all now eX-
cepting what has been spent in May
and June. The May report is not yet
completed.
Readers will understand that dis
trict one is. the north end of the
county, number two is the middle
and number three is the south end.
Last week the Aberdeen Times re-
preached the nAlissicncrs for stop
ping work in the third district and
spoke of there being lot of cul-
verts uncovered and the bridge over
the Peoples ditch unfinished. The
writer drove over the whole line
from Blackfoot to the south end of
the county and found culverts seem
ingly all replaced with siphons made
of cement, and the old bridge still
doing duty at the crossing of the
Peoples ditch The curved road to
the old bridge makes the road per-
haps hundred yards longer than
the new one will be, but there seems
to be no reason for any frantic APP
peal from Aberdeen to have it rushed
to completion. 1t is upwards of
thirty miles from Aberdeen anyway,
and it seems far-fetched for the
Aberdeen paper to be so much
troubled about it.
The following figures merely
show what was done in four months
of winter and spring in the progress
of finishing up work already under
taken;

FINDS CADILLAC TRAVEL
BETTER THAN RAILROADS

"Ihe most convincing object lesson |
received in the West says Lynn Nc
Naughton, sales manager of the Cadillac
Motor Car Company, of Detroit, was
the difficulty of schedule travel by train,
because all the trains are running late, and
the ease of it by means of n Cadillac"
Mr. McNaughton has just returned from
n trip which took him to the Pacific coast
and back
"The first time ! encountered this DIFF
ference was in making a run from Denver
to Colorado Springs. The distance be-
tween the two cities is about 20 miles.
1t takes the trains three hours to cover the
distance. Two hours is all the time the
Cadillac requires.
'In California, in the course of one
week, ] travelled 500 miles in Cadillac.
One trip in particular was Illuminating
We were starting from Oakland for Sacra-
mento, some 800 miles away. Upon leav-
ing Oakland nj 945 in the morning, our
driver said we would be in Sacramento by
go that evening. We stopped in Fresno
for business and lunch, and had our dinner
at Stockton. At $50 in the evening we
were in Sacramento Everywhere |
Travelled in the motorcar, we made our
schedules in the same fashion, Nowhere
did encounter a railroad conductor who
would say exactly how late his train was,
nor how much time might be made up IN
arriving at a given point.
