coming rapidly. There are parts
Of the country where it IS not yet
known as a physical fact But the
residents Of those parts arc impa-
tent with their poor highways and
are working hard to improve them.
The government IS aiding. The
states are active. The counties are
hustling. The boroughs and town
ships are scraping and rolling. Al
together it may be said that the good
road has arrived.
Some OF the motor cars that
started out bravely from the west
to make Washington for Shrine
week had to turn back because they
could not navigate the mud of the
rain-soaked roads west of the Mis-
sissippi. That should not be. And
the day will come, perhaps within
a decade, when there will be no such
danger anywhere in this country
save in the back lanes OF infrequeni
communication.
With good roads the American
people can all go visiting, from on'
better home" TO another. Coco
roads make for wider acquaintance
Better homes make for stronger
family life. In these two particu
lars the American people are blessed
above the average Of the human
family, but there is room yet foi
improvement.-The above recent,

Better Homes and Better Roads.


President Harding yesterday,
Speaking on two different occasions
in this city, urged upon the Ameri-
can people better homes and better
roads. One of these occasions was
the dedication of the model of the
Home, Sweet Home" of John
Howard Payne, inspiration OF his
immortal song, and the other was
the dedication of the zero mile
stone,' from which all distances
from the National Capital are to be
measured hereafter.
These two American needs are
related, and the nation is to be
praised that they are on the way to
accomplishment. The average home
in this country is far improved over
that Of half a century ago, and the
average American road is Infinitely
better than that OF the same period
back.
bStteI MONIES means more than
more artistic architecture. 1t
means better sanitation, greater
comfort and more attractiveness.
q better home may not cost more
than its predecessor, save for the
higher cost Of construction at pres
ent, but it will have more in it to
hold the family together, which is
the chief purpose OF a home.
The better roads make for better
living They may take the family
out touring, but il the home Is at
tractiye and comfortable it draws
back to it all who fare forth Tor
pleasure or on business.

NEEDS OF THE HOUR

What the railroads need Is a night
Waterman to arouse public attention
to the necessity for railway expansion
In the construction Of new lines, more
locomotives, freight cars and terminal
facilities. 1t Is deplorable that there
has been decrease Of over 200 miles
Of road in the United States since 1915,
that there were more locomotives re-
tired than installed In 1922, that the
replacement of new for old freight
cars has not averaged over eighty per
cent a year, and that passenger equip
ment Is equally behind in the matter
Of new cars.
In the face Of these handicaps, the
railways are being managed SO eff
GENTLY that they are handling grester
volume Of traffic than was ever known
for the first three months Of the year.
Under such conditions car shortages
are inevitable. Railway managers,
however, are not discouraged, but on
faith are ordering new equipment and
other facilities at an unprecedented
rate. That faith must rest on the be-
lief that few radical politicians can.
not fool the people all the time.
The Federal Constitution gives the
railways the right to earn fair re-
turn upon the fair value Of their prop
erty devoted to transportation. The
LaFollette Federal Valuation Act has
dried up the old cry Of "Water! Wa
ter" and gives assurance to the pub
lie Of a valuation based On law and
facts. In cooperation with the State
Railroad Commissions, the Interstate
Commerce Commission has lately
found the value Of the railways as Of
December 81, 1927, to be $19,412 POI. :
600. and has fixed 5K% as fair re-
turn thereon. This should result In q
net operating income Of $1,118,O0 900.
The railways can earn this return II
the radicals will stop tearing up their
rails and give them trial.
Rates and wages have reached an
equitable standard which, II main
tanned, will yield satisfactory and pro-
gressive results. II wages 60 up. 80
must rates; and II rates 60 down, 30
must wages. -.
Present rates do not restrict traffic
and are not out Of proportion to the
value Of the goods transported. When
prices, wages and fuel costs approach
pre-war levels, 1t will be time to talk
Of readjusting rates and wages. Team
work between the public. the railways
and their employees is the Transports
ton need Of the hour.
The foregoing facts call for serious
consideration and should make an ap
peal to all thinking personalities
tisement.

Seeding Has Been Begun Earlier Than
for Many Years, and Soil 10
In Perfect Shape.

With weather conditions highly IA.
ada, with the exception probably OF
q portion Of Manitoba, have completed
seeding from ten to fifteen days earlier
than for some years past. In some
parts Of Manitoba there were floods
which delayed seeding, but they have
abated, and left the land In good shape
for quick work and speedy germina-
ton. In Saskatchewan soil conditions
for seeding were never better. With q
generous quantity Of snow, which after
melting left needed moisture, and an
other snowstOrm after seeding was
finished, there was an ideal condition
created. From all parts Of Alberta
there came the best Of reports as TO
rainfall and snow moisture. leaving the
ground in the condition required for
the prospects of a good crop.
Spring, as in most other parts Of the
continent, was backward, but notwith.
standing this, as has been said, farmers
were able to get on the land earlier
than for some years. In fact, seeding
was practically commenced about the
18th Of April, which to many readers
may seem remarkable, when 1t II
known that several hundred miles far

spring seeding for several days later.
Reports to hand on the 18th Of May
state that wheat Is up above the
ground In a great many places, oats
are being sown, and corn planted.
Farm labor was scarce for awhile, but
the demand has fallen off. One fea-
ture of the demand for farm help Ia
that farmers are now employing help
by the year, at Of course smaller wages
than those paid for special work. The
increasing tendency to employ help by
the year Is evidence that farmers are
not relying solely upon wheat growing.
but are going out into other branches,
such as dairying, stock raising, etc.

erly planned any meal may be
stretched to include chance guest,
without any one being defrauded.
There is a fallacy called economy,
which consists Of "using everything
up; of course that is most desirable
and to be commended, but when the
leftover to be used of ingredients
worth three cents must be combined
with foods costing five or six times
that 1t Is not economy, unless the COM
bination Is especially well-liked.
A few slices of bread to save when
used with milk, for pudding, with
raisins, eggs and spices II the family
likes 1t, Is worth while; If not. put
those waste slices into the sour milk
over night to make into the griddle
cakes for breakfast. Or spread the
slices with butter and sprinkle gen.
erously with chopped rhubarb which
you are supposed to have In your gar.
den, sprinkle generously with sugar
and bake until the rhubarb Is soft and
the juices absorbed by the bread. Such
q dessert is wholesome, well-liked and
economical.
The ordinary ready-to-eat breakfast
foods are not economical, especially
In a good-sized family. For such let
them buy a few pounds of wheat at
the mill or from some farmer-if you
are not one-soak 1t over night-a
cupful or two-and cook on the back
of the range during the day when
fire is in use. Serve with top milk;
this Is a hearty meal in itself and will
make bone and muscle for the grow
ing boys and girls.
, Perishable foods should be served
In small quantities, SO that there will
be no leftovers. 1t Is impossible to
avoid leftovers and they must be &C
cepted as q necessary evil, served as
appetizingly as possible; but avoid hav-
ing them.
