Improved Roads Sign of
Progress in Community

The material need and the economic
value of improved highways can hard
ly be a matter Of debate. 1t would be
possible to chart the path of progress
from barbarism to civilization in terms
of transportation facilities, from la
bored pedestrianism to flights through
the clouds. And as for actual road
ways for vehicles 1t Is probably cor
rect to say that poor roads are the
obvious advertisements of either a
backward nation or backward com
munity, while good roads are every
where and always the outward sign
of advance and progress, says the
Philadelphia Bulletin.
But there are other roads than those
that are built of either mud or mac
adam. There are roads to health
that are paved with wholesome food
and restful sleep and plentiful sup
ply of fresh air. There are roads
to wealth that are paved with am
bition and industry and thrift and
Infinite patience. There are roads to
success that are paved with high en-
terprise and long laborious days and
the kind Of desire and determination
which will be satisfied with nothing
less than real achievement. There
are roads also to failure that are not
paved at ALL but that wind almlessly
along in deep-grooved ruts of indo-
lence and ignorance and self-pity. There
are also roads that lead to happiness,
paved with loyalty to ones friends,
devotion to ones ideals and the spirit
of generous service. There are roads
to pleasure, paved with personal in
diligence, that lead to nowhere and
nothing, except establishment, and
in the end, despair.

Wheat Hay Not Favored
for Feeding Dairy Cows

Wheat hay contains little more
iigestible nutrients than oat hay. II
contains more carbohydrates, hence
Is not quite so desirable for dairy
rows and growing stock A mixture
Of oat and wheat should make very
lair horse hay. It would have about
the same feeding value as timothy.
Any green crop should be cut for
hay when the kernels are in the milk
stage. 1t is not difficult to cure il
good weather but it is difficult to get
such a crop put up without getting
more or less dirt in it from the field
as these crops do not form sod as
do the permanent grasses, like timothy
and bromus. Cure as you would tim
othy. A little more time is required

Highway Notes

The convention of American road
builders predicts perfect roads within
25 years. A perfect road, according
to our notion, will be at least twice as
wide as the ones people think plenty
good enough nowadays.
Improved highways make every part
IF Pennsylvania easily accessible. Mod
ern thoroughfares connect the centers
of production with the centers of con-
sumption. 1t is possible to drive 1000
miles in straightaway without once
eaving improved road.

Three Firemen Hurt and Sec
ond Alarm Sounded in
$4,000 Blaze.

Fire destroyed a one-story brick
building on the southwest corner Of
Maryland and Blackford Sts., part
of Kingan & Co. plant, today
with a loss estimated between $35 900
and $4,000.
Building was built forty.five years
ago and was the original meat
market Of the company. Ten
thousand empty barrels were stored
In 1t.
Thousands of persons were at
tracted by clouds of dense smoke.
Three firemen were slightly hurt
and one man was overcome. Clar-
ence Amos, of Pumper Company 6,
and Robert Sims, Headquarters
truck company, were cut by falling
ladders. Harry Harrod of Pumper
Company Z was hurt about the leg.
Harold Williams, of Southport, Ind,
Kingan- employe had TO be carried
two blocks away for fresh air when
overcome by smoke. Frank Hopper,
another employe, received cut
hand.
Fourteen lines Of hose were played
upon the fire in addition to the com
pany lines. The fire was still burn
ing at 1 p. m.
Fire was first discovered at 1925.
Plant firemen, seeing the flames
were beyond their control, called the
city department. Second alarm fol-
lowed.
Flames were confined to the one
structure, although water loss was
caused when fire broke into an adj
joining meathouse. A sprinkler sys-
tenn checked the flames there.
A fire wall saved an adjoining
four-story building on the south.
Spontaneous combustion was given
as the probable cause.
John r. Kingan, treasurer, sup
piled police with ropes to hold back
the crowd. Thousands Of the COM
pany's employees, released for the
noon hour, were marched away from
the flames.
Smoke filled buildings for two
blocks to the north. Employees in
