ROAD AID NOT PORK
MINNEAPOLIS Journal

That Federal road money is in no
sense pork" has been demonstrated
il the case of the State of Kansas.
The Federal Government, as every
body knows, matches dollars with the
States in the building and improve
inert IF thorough highways that serve
national needs.
The last Kansas Legislature seemed
to think this money was some sort of
a government gift, carrying no strings
whatever. If failed to finance and
equip the State Highway Department
as required by the law as a prepre-
quisite for Federal aid. Washington's
action was prompt and efficacious.
Last April Federal id was abruptly
withdrawn. Allotments of a million
and half dollars for the present ifs
cal year, and more than two millions
for the succeeding fiscal, were in
volved.
Now Kansas sincerely wanted bet
ter roads and was ready honestly to
match it's money with the Govern
ment's But the Legislature, in spirit
of shortsighted parsimony, had ham
strung the Highway Department. The
rather drastic Federal action got
quick results. Legislators saw their
error, regretted it, and were willing
to correct it. But a way out was
found that obiated a special session.
The banks agreed to come to the res
cue with loans to finance highway su-
pervision that will be satisfactory to
the Washington authorities this year
and next. The banks are satisfied
that the Legislature to be elected next
year will do no quibbling about ap-
propriating money to repay the loans
-agregating some three hundred
thousand dollars-and to finance the
Highway Department on a proper
scale in 1927 and 1928.
1t is a foregone conclusion that
Kansas, with this lesson of 1925 in
mind will not let the slip accur again.
Nor will the lesson be lost on other
States

town. When good roads make trucks
feasible this is not very burdensome,
but it represents a good many hours
labor where horses an dpoor roads,
must be used. And so while the
tourist finds inter-city roads mighty
comfortable, to the farmer a good SER
viceable road from his farm to the
nearest market is downright neces-
sity.
The expansion of hard road system
both nthis and other states in recent
years has given the farmer an added
inducement for going into business
for himself, the foundation states.
That he has not been slow to take adj
vantage of the opportunit! is testified
in the increasing number of roadside
markets on the more frequented high
ways. Figures show that each of
these markets takes in fifteen to
thirty dollars up to several hundred
dollars a day, varying with the local
ity, the preponderance OF buyers be-
ing tourists driving through the vi
Unity. Some of these are nothing
more than stands of simple board con-
struti;cn while the more pretentions
are housed in buildings which may be
locked after the days or the seasons
business. The most successful OF
the markets are so placed as to have
convenient parking facilities where
prospective buyers may examine the
articles of goods, which should be OF
good quality yet moderately priced
and attractively displayed.

Better Highways Mean
Large Savings on Cars
Reductions in Gas and Tire Expense
for Sixty-two Autos Shown to
Equal Cost of Pavement

Following publication in The Sank
Centre Herald of expert findings that
from a road cost standpoint alone a
concrete pavement is cheaper than
gravel surfacing where the highway
is used by an average of 500 vehicles
a day, the State College of Washing
ton announces tests showing that saw
ings for road users in tire and gaso-
line consumption will equal the cost
of paving the road that is used by
only 62 cars on daily average.
The results, held of interest to
every automobile, are given in a
highfay bulletin this week with the
following summary of test results:
Auto tire wear depends, in part,
upon speed, temperature and road
surface.
Tests show that tire treads wear off
approximately II times as fast on
good macadam as on concrete and SO
times as fast on very poor macadam.
If it costs $40 for gasoline to drive
a car over a certain length of con-
crete road, it will cost $11.13 to drive
the same car over a good macadam
of the same length, and S15.07 if the
macadam is in very poor condition.
The conclusions are based on pains
taking tests as given in detail in the
college bulletin.
The report goes on to sa ythat with
gasoline priced at rs cent sa gallon,
the cost of gasoline an dtires at 33
miles per hour on very poor macadam
is $3.50 thousand miles, while the
cost on good macadam is $3.50.
Thus the motorist takes all the pun
ishment of rough riding and pays this
difference of $52.4O per thousand
miles besides. For example, on a
road carrying 500 cars day on
coarse crushed rock, FL days will re-
suit in a total of 10000 car miles,
costing the motorists an additional
$3.50. 20 for each mile of the road.
With we'll packed crushed rock the
extra cost would be only $104 a mile.
Other results, also given in detail,
prove the close relation between road
conditions and car running expenses.
Minnesota's average automobile
owner pays less than half cent a
mile in both auto and gasoline taxes
for better trunk highways, against a
possible saving of more than 2 cents
mile to be gained by them through
the adequate Improvement Of the
roads they use

Butter Cooperative Pays
High Average July Price
Cremeries Association Sells Over
100000 Pounds in July, All
Yielding Above N. Y. Extras

The Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association established a new
record when it sold it's total July
butter shipments at figures that re-
turned to the member creameries an
average of .55 cent above N. Y. Elk
tras for the total output.
The association sold the huge total
of 9,142,326 pounds of butter last
month, for which it paid back to
the member creameries the sum of
$3,967,891.22.
This was an average price for the
entire months sales of 43. 40 cents
a pound. The average price for N.
Y. Extras during the month was
AZ 85 cents. This feat of getting a
total return above N. Y. Extras is a
practical demonstration of the excel
lence of the sales system built up by
Minnesota's famous cooperative as
ISOLATION, the success of which has
been attracting nationwide attention
for many months.
A. J. Mcclure, general manager of
the association, and H. F. Meyer,
manager butter sales department, re-
turned last week from Philadelphia
where they delivered addresses be-
fore the American Institute of Co.
operation on cooperative marketing
in Minnesota. The Institute was a
great gathering, attended by cooper
alive leaders from 80 states and
Canada. Minnesota cooperatives
compare very favorably with those in
other states, is the opinion of Mr..
Mcclure after hearing reports from
all sections of the country at the Phil
adelphia sessions.

Firestone was assured his proposition
would be accepted.
Mr.. Barclay came here Tuesday to
work out the final details of the trans
action after six months negotiations.
While no official announcement could
be obtained, it was learned that a
S100,000,000 corporation will be
formed to operate the plantation on
scale which will assure American
manufacturers an adequate rubber
supply.
This is the first effort of an Amer
lean manufacturer to grow rubber on
such large scale. Three-fourths OF
the worlds rubber acreage is con-
trolled by Great Britain, with most OF
the remaining supply produced by the
Dutch. America, the largest con-
sumner, is in control of only small
percentage.

Hard Road Systems Gives
Added Business Inducement
Tourists Will Enjoy Many More Miles
of United States Hard Roads
for Minnesota

Minnesota farmers and tourists
now. enjoy 429 miles more of Federal
aid highways than they did a year
ago. This mileage, completed in the
year ending June 80, cost a total of
S6,378,124, of which the federal gov
eminent furnished S2,852,798. High
way construction under this plan now
under way. in the state totals 683
miles, while the total mileage COM
pletad previous to last year was 1922
miles.
This additional mileage, while a
convenience to the tourist in the state,
is a godsend to the farmer, according
to the foundation. It is estimated
that each and every farmer in this
section of the country averages 40
tons of farm products hauled to mar
