ture estimate the total expenditure
for construction and maintenance of
roads in the country in 1921 to be $500,
100000. The sources of this fund are
approximately as follows: Motor-ve-
hicle revenue, 10 per. cent; state road
33 per cent; state taxes and appro-
priations, IL per cent; federal aid, IA
per cent; county, township and dis
trict taxes and assessments, IA per

Russia Orders Seed Corn
Toward the middle of February the
S D., received an order from the Rus
sian relief for 100000 bushels of seed
corn for use in Russia Northern
grown seed was asked for, seed grown
in the Dakotas, Minnesota, northern
Wisconsin, northern Iowa and Nebras-
ka, this corn being especially suited to
the climate Of the territory to be
planted. The seed is required to be
at the wharf in Baltimore not later
than March 20. The corn has been
sacked, 21a bushels to the bag, re-
curing $4,000 bags and more than 800
cars to handle the shipment. Ship
ments have been going forward stead

will be filled at tidewater in ample

+ Wheat Growers Union
A despatch from Denver, Colo, tells
of the federation of all the state wheat
growers cooperative societies on the
100 per cent pooling plan, to be known
/, ISOLATION.
| This resulted from a series of con-
! ferences and it is claimed that the
membership represented in the or
/ ganization controls between $4,000,
| 900 and 90.000,00 bushels of wheat.
| If those figures are approximately cor
rect it is evident that more than one
| inter-mountain state is included in the
deal The story continues as follows
! "In addition to the formation of this
gigantic pooling plan for controlling
the flow of wheat from the producer
| to the consumer, the conference re-
suited in removing the antagonism
that has been growing between the
various state organizations and the
United States Grain Growers, incor-
porated, it was announced"
Turned Down by Congress
| The drought stricken areas of the
northwest are evidently in need OF
more seed wheat than they have
money to buy. Just how much wheat
they actually need is not ascertained
nor has the shortage of money needed
to supply the demand for seed been
definitely stated.
The principal evidence as to condi
lions in that section was brought out
at Washington on Monday when, by a
close vote, the house refused to sus.
pend the rules and pass a bill author
izing the appropriation of $1,006,00C
for the purchase of seed grain. The
vote was 191 for to SO against, or
votes short of the two thirds needed
for passage. Those opposing the mea
sure held that it had not been showr
that the farmers were destitute, OIL
had exhausted their credit resources
1t is supposed that a part of the money
might be needed for seed oats etc
