Iowa Counties Vote Bonds
for Pavement This Year
Nearly 5000, 900 Authorized Since
Jan. Retired Farmer Gives
Quarter Million

Twelve Iowa counties have held
special elections since January 1,
1926 and have voted to authorize
bond issues totaling $12,950, 900.
They have authorized 421 miles of
paving. Added to the present mile
age of 592, this will give Iowa a
total of 1913 miles Of paved roads
and will bring Iowa ahead Of Mime
sofa. Our state will have 1888 miles
of paved trunk highway when work
now under construction is completed.
Iowa's primary roads are built and
financed by the counties. Before any
county can spend money for paving,
the question must be submitted to the
voters. "A separate vote must be
taken on a proposal to issue bonds.
The first elections on the question
of authorizing county board to pro-
June 1919, according to the Iowa
State Highway Commission service
bulletin. Up to date, Sd elections
have been held in as many counties
on the same question. In "a counties
these elections have carried, but in
one, the authorization was rescinded,
leaving 33 counties in which it is
possible to pave if funds are availa-
BILE. In IA counties elections have
been held to authorize bond issues for
paving primary roads. This proposal
has carried in 26 counties, with a to-
tai authorization Of $28,091 1884 for
bonds. This has been done entirely
by individual counties, irrespective of
any probable future action toward a
State bond issue for surfacing pri-
mary roads.
Fifty-five legislative members met
recently and passed resolutions ask
ing that special session of the Leg
islature be called to submit the ques-
tion of issuing 500, 900 in bonds
for program of primary road paw
ing. Present indications, however,
are that no special session will be
called but that the matter will come
up at the regular session in 1927.
Announcement was also made that
Alexander Coleman, a retired Iowa
farmer, had made gift of $3.50, 900
to build paved road past his home
stead from Hillsboro to the so-called
Mt. Pleasant Madison Trail, a dis
lance of-ten and one-half miles. The
offer has been accepted by the county
boards of Lee and Henry counties, in
which the road is located. This win
be the longest secondary road pave
ment in Iowa.

to stop and back away the car had
reached the first rail and in a few

Smut Loss On Oats Will Be S.
500, 000-Smut is again causing
heavy damage in Minnesota grain
fields this year. DIR. E. C. Stakman,
plant disease specialist Of the Mime
sofa Agricultural Experiment Station.
estimates that in 1925 smut reduced
the yield of oats about 10000, 900
bushels, causing a financial loss to
farmers of about $3,500,000. Indi-
cations are that the damage done by
smut to oats this year, adds DR..
Stackman, will be just as great in
districts where seed treatment has
not been practiced.
These losses, says DR.. Stakman,
could have been almost wholiJ PIE
vented by the treatment of seed in
advance. The cost of the Tornado
hyde treatment for oats is about l n
cents bushel. To treat all the oats
sown in Minnesota this year would
have cost about $150,000. This,
thinks DR.. Stakman, would have been
"a small price to pay to effect a saw
ing of $3,500,00O. To put it anoth-
er way, $4,000 invested in seed
treatment would have yielded re-
turn of $500 per cent. Why not
grow dollars instead Of smut spores?

Hogs Get T. M. From Infected Hen
Flocks-Nearly 88 per cent of the
swine infected with tuberculosis in
Nebraska had tuberculosis of the
avian or fowl type, said DR.. L. Van
Els, chief of the veterinary division of
the University of Nebraska, at re-
cent meeting of the Minnesota State
Veterinary Medical association at
University Farm, st. Paul.
Because of the situation in Ne
braska, which is similar to that in
other states, DR.. Van Els believes that
tuberculosis among swine in any
case would warrant an investigation
as to the poultry on the farm.
The spread Of tuberculosis of the
avian type, affecting fowls, has been
rapid. DR.. Van Els reported to the
Minnesota veterinarians that up to
1906, after 13 years of veterinary
practice in the middle west, he had
never seen a case of avian tuberculo-
sis. Today, he said, half the f1ocks in
the Mississippi valley are affected.
The remedy, for the present at least,
lies in the adoption of strict santa
ton.

motorcycle on the pavement just north
of this city Sunday evening at about

A large piece of flesh was torn
from Mr.. Felix left leg just below the
knee. The bone was laid bare and
lsplintered in two places. Three fingers
on the left hand were broken at the
third joint, and he was badly bruised
and cut about the head and body.
Deputy Sheriff Felix was going
south on the pavement and he at
tempted to pass a car, when another
car appeared from the opposite direc-
ton. Seeing that he was unable to
reach his own side of the pavement,
he chose to run into the ditch on the
left in preference of being struck by
the oncoming car. He was travelling
at high speed and his motorcycle
struck the heavy guard rail, tearing
out one Of the posts. He was thrown
a distance Of nearly so feet.
Persons who witnessed the accident
took Mr.. Felix to st. Gabriel's hos
pital for care. He is getting along IA
