 The Crop Outlook.
 The outlook for the crops IS eH1 raflrnt The season was backward on account of wet weather, but the croos are growing in the ground III oood shape. and with ample mols- fnre to give them fine start when warm weather comes. Inc singie exception is the cotton crop, whicn had T poor start and IS threatened hv the boil weevil. Apprehension IS felt of short crop, and the priee reflects It.
 The improvement IS not confined to this country. Foreign trade IS better. The South American countries which produce raw materials and food stuffs are finding better markets. working off the surplus stocks of
 merchandise which have embar- rassed them, and beginning to buy apain in substantial amounts. Con
 ditions in Asia are improving. The

the concentration of all sorts of in

the roads Of the various states in the

Engineers Of the department are
now gathering complete information
regarding the road mileage and eX-
penditures in the United States. In
many of the states much of the in
formation desired is easily obtainable
from the state highway department.
In the case Of Iowa the figures were

past-sOme II feet and good many Of
1G-foot width lave been constructed
in an effort to economize, but it has
proved shOrtsighted economy. Only
one line Of traffic can pass over a T.
foot roadway, and 1G feet of width
will not accommodate two lines in
safety. Many of the states, such as
Pennsylvania. New Jersey. Ohio and
Massachusetts, have found it advisable
ir replacing old bridges on important
roads to make them wide enough to
accommodate three and four lines of
