BACK OF GOOD ROADS
Seasons Do Not Wait and Crops Must
Be SoWed, Cultivated Reaped
and Marketed.

The farmer or rural dweller, in GER
tain sections, for a long time stood
in the wayne wanted the roads. but
he didn't want to pay for them. He
did not realize that in the long run
good roads pay for themselves out OF
savings made to the community in
haulage Of people and merchandise.
But the farmer today is reckoning in
units of time. for seasons do not wait
and crops must be sowed and cult
waited, reaped and marketed at the
right time. Therefore the farmer Is
now back Of the road Improvement.

Classification Of Passenger and Freight
Highways Is Predicted by
Chairman Diehl.

Freight roads and passenger roads
are probabilities Of the comparative
" near future in %congested sections
Of the country, according to Chairman
George c. Diehl of the A. A. A. good
roads board, who has sent a commune
cation to this effect to the Office of
the chief of engineers Of the War de
partment. Mr.. Diehl thus comments
on the up-to-date highways problem:
"There will never be a time when
all roads are of equal durability and
carrying capacity. Highways and
railroads are analogous, in that they
are both designed to carry traffic, and
| general rules which have been devel-
oped through scientific management
of railroads apply as we'll almost in
variably to highways. The heaviest
locomotives and rolling stock are car
ried or roads like the New York Cen
trail and Pennsylvania and Union Pa
cific. Their use owe lighter con-
structed railroads would ruin the
roads in Il comparatively brief period.
"There must come a classification
Of highways. over class /. the heav-
lest motortrucks and trailers would
be permitted; each truck should have
large figures con%spicuonsly placed on
the sides to indicate The total weight
that it was permitted to carry Oper-
ators and owners Of trucks should be
prosecuted for using the heaviest
trucks on roads designed for lighter
traffic. 1t would be comparatively
simple to enforce such provisions, as
there seems to be no defense Of the
proposition permitting n or two
heavy trucks to ruin an investment
of many thousand dollars on the
lighter constructed highways.
"At the road intersection the high
way capacity could be indicated, as
the highway department should, I be-
lieve, have a traffic department under
a chief traffic engineer. having to do,
not with construction and mainte-
nance but merely with the control Of
traffic. 1t is extremely likely that 1T

Rotary Tomorrow.

The Wednesday evening dinner
and meeting of the Rotary Club was
in charge of the Boys Work Conn
mittee of the club and proved very
interesting. This committee is COM
posed of H. E. White, John Harch
and Joe Rothman. Both Harch
and Rothman were absent from the
meeting and L. j. White was pressed
into service for the discussion of the
subject, which was very nicely hand
led. The committee will shortly
outline plans for reaching the boys
of the city for individual and COM
munity betterment. President Ayres
also announced that the application
OF the Ely Club had been accepted
and that the charter would follow
in few days.
Tomorrow evening the formal
christening of the Ely Rotary Club
will take place, the Virginia Club to
act as godfather and in which they
will be assisted by members from
Eveleth, Duluth, Minneapolis and
other places. It is expected that
about a hundred outside Rotarians
will be present and assist in placing
the Ely club on its feet. A dinner
will be served by the ladies of the
Presbyterian church at the Com
munity Center.
