The future is re-

misunderstood The future is re-
vealed in the history of the past.
Everything points to increasingly
powerful and capacious motor We
hicles of various kinds, used in
greater and still greater numbers,
and such transportation will depend
upon and necessitate roads solid
enough and scientifically sound
enough to bear the strain to which
such traffic will subject them. The
larger units will drive the smaller
before them, on the public roads as
they have done the same thing on
the steam railways, the trolley lines,
the rivers, the seas, and even the
canals.
Since all this is clearly fore
shadowed and is plainly near at
hand, the only escape from ruinous
expense, in struggling with the road
problems of a country which labors
under serious climatic difficulties, in
its sections of greatest population
and heaviest traffic, is to prepare as
rapidly as possible for the coming
era of wonderful motor truck trans
portatiOn by building roads which
can stand up under the loads they
must carry, and do it year after
year, for long periods.
That is to say, the road-buiIding of
this rich and progressive but some
times wasteful and careless nation
Will have to be done with more
scientific pains and greater eff
cheney. The mere pouring out of
money will not avail much if the
laundering which has marked much
highway construction work is to con-
tinue to discourage taxpayers and
bring heavy motor trucks and traffic
into disrepute.
The importance of this problem of
government and economics is not
yet fully understood, but it is grow
ing clearer, day by day, as the use
and enjoyment of good roads, even
good in the superficial and painfully
temporary sense, makes converts
and wins the favor of the public
that pays the bills.
: There is opposition, of course. as
there always has been in human
progress. Inertia has to be over
! come. Prejudices must be fought
down. Selfish and narrow interests
have to be swept aside, as they were
! flung out Of the path of the railroad
the trolley line, the automobile in
| city streets Ignorance and incom-
petence in official positions of an
/ thority must be overcome before The
building of highways that will stand
! up to their work and last a reason
! able time can come into the king
dom which Is their manifest DESTINY
We must get more years even
though we have to accept less miles
for our millions poured out in the
building of highways We must
move more slowly but with fewer
mistakes. 1t is imperative that
greater value shall be obtained in
building roads, or the widest, most
comprehensive, most elemental and
basic part of our transportation sys
tenn can never attain its proper de-
velopment.

WEEKLY. REPORT ON
CROP CONDITIONS
FOR Ohio

Corn cutting is rs percent complet-
ed in the State with the largest per
cent of corn remaining uncut in tn
Southwestern counties according t.
reports received by C. J. West, State
Federal Agricultural Statistician.
Silo filling rs practically completed IN
most sections of the State. Expense
of filling silos averages only a little
less than last year and wages for
cutting corn are about two-thirds OF
last year.
The machine and engine to fill a
silo are hired by the hour in many
sections of the State with a State
average rate of $2.57 per hour. The
charge where paid for by the day
averages $1,000. Last year charges
by the hour averaged $3.10 and by
the day $12.30. Other ways OF
hiring the machinery in connection
with silo filling are by ton and for
fixed amount depending upon the
size of the silo, tho the hour and day
methods seem to prodominate. This
years State average for corn cutting
is 91a cents per shock. Last years
price paid was from to 7 cents per
shock higher. Where corn cutters
are hired by the hour the average rate
! is 80 cents.

LASTING ROADSAVITALN NEED
Must Build Better-Flimsy Highways Are Waste of
Money and Do Not Serve Public-A National
Issue of the Hour
BY Sloane Gordon.


One fundamental fact which stands
out in all serious consideration OF
the great question of road building
and road maintenance in the United
States, is that the country cannot
stand still. There must be enduring
progress or there will be loss of
ground already gained.
For the people will not endure the
burden of paying for the construc-
ton of costly highways, only to see
them go to pieces in a year or two.
The waste is intolerable, the cost
too heavy to be borne. The i'm
proved roads must last longer, or
they will not be kept up at all.
To put the problem that way is to
show that road building must be bet
ter done and road maintenance must
be more careful and more 1ntelli-
gent. America cannot sink back
into the mire of highways which had
mo bottom in the winter and no top
in the summer" That period is past.
We must go ahead, as a people, in
the construction, use and enjoyment
of good roads Public sentiment de
sires the progress which economic
needs demand.
The movement toward heavier
and larger vehicles, on improved
roads, is in harmony with the prog
ress of the age. 1t marches with
the times Similar changes are
steadily going on in transportation
by sea and on inland waterways.
They have been marking and hasten
ing the development of American
railroads They characterized the
growth of the interurban trolley
lines, until they ran into the hard
and almost paralyZing conditions
which were partly the result of the
war and partly the fruit of unsound
early financing and inadequate con-
struction and equipment, from the
beginning.
In the last century, enormous
changes in steamships have made
the first little vessels moved by
turning water into steam seem like
quaint toys. The earliest locomo.
tives are equally futile and insignia.

CALL CORN BORERS
AN ACTUAL Menace
Scientists Who Visited Canadian
Fields Advise on Fall Control
Measures

"Next to senseless panic, the
worst possible state of mind is unbe-
lief as to the reality of threat made
by the European corn borer against
the prosperity of Ohio, and OF the
cornbelt states"
This is the view of entomologists
of the Ohio State University who ac-
companied a party of 30 American
entomologists to Canada late IN
September. The trip was to inspect
fields of corn rendered by the borers
absolutely unfit to harvest in this,
only the second year, of the pests
known occurrence in Ontario.
During the summer just past, the
borer has been found in Ohio. Light
but virtually continuous infestation
has been unearthed in every shore
township of every lake county from
Cleveland east, and in seven scattered
townships west.
In Ohio, as was the case in Canada,
the first year infestation is slight
Next year, say entomologists, will GO
far toward determining just how
great a toll the pest will take. Every
agricultural institution and organiza,
ton will, it is planned, be mobolized
before spring to make a fight.
! Following are fall practices now
being urged upon farmers in Ottawa
Erie, Lorain, CuyahOga, Lake anc
Ashtabula Counties, where the pest
has appeared Cut corn close to the
ground and early. Ensile the entire
crop; this kills all borers. PloN
early and so thoroughly as to cover
up all vegetation remaining from the
corn crop, conduct further cultiva
ton so as not to uncover this vege
tation. Be certain that no growth
from infested fields gets on manure
piles. Burn weeds around infested
fields.
