Harvey auto stages came along and a
bevy of women disembarked and came
in. They soon had Doe in animated
conversation. Needing his handker-
chief, he reached back to his hip poe
ket for it, discovering with horror his
pants were torn and half yard or so
of shirt-tail was brazenly flying in
the breeze. Doc bit a sentence right
off in the middle, backed out of doors
and into his sedan and came away,
leaving his hat on the counter.

Wyoming, perhaps it is safe to take
a chance and tell about the big sur
prise he got a few months ago.
The county board Of supervisors,
after the time for en- appeal had pass
ed in the case of Harry Nash, SEN
fenced to the state penitentiary for
the murder of Martin f. Schwab, the
Utah travelling man, decided the muir
dered mans remains should be sent
back to his family for burial. 1t was
decided that it would be more con-
siderate to send them back in charge
Of someone. So Mr.. Lewis was assign
ed to it.
The remains were duly carried to
the Utah family home by Mr.. Lewis.
Funeral arrangements had been made
when it was discovered by some over
sight Of someone the skull had not
been included with them. 1t was still
in Flagstaff.
While George was in no way re-
sponsible for the omission, he was
pretty sensitive about the matter and
begged so strenuously and eloquently
that nothing be published about it,
that nothing was published. The rest
of the remains we're forwaded to
Utah and the delayed funeral held.

Doc Buck, optician at Fort Whip
pie, was in Flagstaff last Saturday.
Doc said a man came in not long ago
to get some glasses. He noted the
man had ridge on his nose, such as
is common on the noses of men who
wear glasses. Doc inquired:
"You have been wearing glasses,
haven't you?"
"No," replied the man.
"Then what makes that ridge on
your nose ?" asked Doc.
"Guess it must have come from
drinking home brew out of a fruit

Higher Wages Paid But
Road Costs Are Lower

Though wages are approximately "a
per cent higher in this state than in
the East North Central states, Ohio
pays more and Indiana and Illinois
slightly less than the average price
Washington has been paying for con-
crete paving.
The figures on which this compare
tive statement is based were fu:-
nished by Thomas H. Macdonald, di-
rector of the United States Bureau of
Roads, last week. A letter received
from Mr. Macdonald not only gave
the cost figures but also stated that in
Illinois 1885 out of 477.5 miles of paw
ing under contract will be surfaced
with concrete. In Indiana 320.S out
of 1859 miles are concrete, while
Ohio has 1875 of concrete paving out
of 32S.S miles of paving contracted.
Director Macdonald says the aver.
age wages paid labor in the East
North Central States of Ohio, Illinois,
Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin is
IS cents an hour in the Pacific divi-
sion, or the states of California, Ore
gon and Washington, it is AZ cents
an hour. The average wage is based
on payments made for all classes of
labor involved in preparing and lay
ing pavement. Forty per cent of a
pavement's cost is paid out for labor.
Taking the paving costs of Illinois,
Indiana and Ohio and reducing them
to the common basis of 2,219.33 cubic
yards of concrete to the mile, the av-
erage cost of existing contracts in
those states is $26,123, S24,124 and
$27,964 mile, respectively A recent
statement made by Highway Engi-
neer James Allen showed the average
cost in this state, the lowest on the
Pacific Coast, was s27,773 for the
years 1918 to 1922, inclusive.
Illinois has the most remarkable
deposit of concentrating materials to
be found anywhere in the country,
therefore, its manufacturing costs are
low

Surprising though it may be to
some farmers who haven't stopped to
figure the advance in labor costs since
pre-war days, but the hay loader now
earns more than twice what it did ten
years ago. This is based on harvest
wages of two men today compared
with ten years ago, the loader saving
at least two men in putting up the
hay. On top of that earning power
of about SIS day in the hay field, a
higher quality hay worth more as feed
or on the market is the result Hay
must be cut at the right time, cured
just enough and then put in the NOW
or stack with the least handling and
without too much exposure to the sun.
A rain simply destroys a large share
of the value of any of the clovers or
alfalfas. If used only 10 days, the
machine expense for 4 hay loader Is
about GO cents a day, taking the gov.
eminent figures for the life OF the
loader at 16 years.

STATE HIGHWAYS HELPED
BY FEDERAL AID FUNDS

That Washington keeps treading on
the heels of the United States Bureau

aid funds for road building as fast as
they are offered, is indicated by the
latest report of the federal bureau.
The national post road funds were
balanced as Of July l. 1924, and have
just been made public by the bureau
of roads.
At the time the bureau made its re-
port many Of the states had enormous
credits they had not touched, there be-
ing total of $S3,4Oi,SS3 available for
new projects This tabulation showed
Washington had an untouched credit
of $S74,4S2 but the state highway de-
partment since has sent in projects
costing $4,000.
The bureaus report shows in the
entire country so, 1929 miles of federal
id roads costing 1921, $50, S99 had been
completed up to July /, the Pacific
