aid roads," he said. "While unques-
tionably there has been great i'm
provement in this respect during the
last decade, the failure to make prop
er provision for the repair of roads
upon which large sums of public
money have been invested is the
sheerest of economic folly. Unless
there is positive assurance that means
will be available for the constant and
continuous care of the roads after
they are improved, l am convinced
that it would be better not to i'm
prove them at all.
zone of the primary conceptions of
the federal aid plan," Mr.. Jardine
said was to expedite the completion
of an adequate system of interstate
highways. "It is my feeling that the
progress in the completion of trans
continental roads is gratifying, but l
do not lose sight of the fact that the
lack of Translate routes in the agri-
cultural states of the Mississippi Val
ley is not in keeping with the de-
velopment, east and west. In spe-
cific states this condition is brought
about more largely by the feature re-
ferred to above, that is, dependence
upon county financing, than upon any
lack of need of such roads or lack
of response on the part of the State
Highway departments. "
'In Minnesota the U. S. numbered
routes are all kept in shape for good
going, from one state line to the
other. Nearly all the central western
states except Minnesota depend on
the counties for financing pri-
mary roads. Minnesota is also rec
ognized as having one of the best
state wide maintenance systems in the
Union"

Minnesota Highway Plan
Found Among the Very Best
Obstacles to Improvement Plan Cited
by Secretary of Agriculture Do
Not Exist in This State

That Minnesota has road pan in
advance of many other states is evil
dent from a study of the address
given by Secretary of Agriculture w.
M. Jardine before the annual meeting
of the American Association of State
Highway Officials at Pinehurst, N.
c., Nov. 9. Mr.. Jardine pointed out
three obstacles which stand in the
way of the most efficient use of avail
able road funds and the completion
of the federal program, in some
states. Not one of these obstacles
exists in Minnesota.
After discussing the great advance
made in road building through re-
search and application of scientific
management during the last decade,
Mr.. Jardine said: "Not all the exact
information it is possible to obtain,
however, will suffice to provide an
orderly and systematic improvement
of the main roads in the states which
still rely upon the financial. assistance
Of the counties to carry out the state
program. Certainly there has been
experience enough to prove that COM
plete connection of main arteries is
practically impossible so long as there
is dependence upon county financ
ing"

provement in the maintenance of all
roads and especially of the Federal

U. S. INSPECTION
!. OF CANTALOUPE
CROP IS ENDED

PHOENIX, Aug. 4-Arizona's second
season of federal cantaloupe inspection
closed tonight after more than coming
up to it's earlier promise of success,
Although cantaloupe shipments proper
,honeydews has continued to the pres
ent time. with an unusual proportion
moving under government certificate.
The total number of cars inspected
during, the season, beginning the last
week in June, was short of 800.
T Federal inspection proved especially
popular among the Independent ship
pers, at least two of whom admitted
they could not have kept going with
out it, so powerful an influence in
marketing did the grade certificates
prove However, the service also was
used by several of the big distributors
which maintain their own sales con-
nections throughout the country and
therefore do not need inspection so
much from the marketing angle, these
firms having cars inspected OCCASION
ally to check up their own graders and
packers.
Grape inspection, attempted for the
SERVICE also proved a boon to the sew
seral growers who used it, and the gov
iernment certificate in one case averted
rejection of an entir ear by an eastern
ibuyer who sought to evade his con-
tract.
Officials of the Arizona Industrial
congress, which obtained the service
for the benefit of Arizona shippers and
growers, have already taken steps to
have federal inspection available for
the lettuce movement next winter and
spring, more than 400 cars of the last
lettuce crop having moved under gov
ernment certificate.
Renewed interest also has been
shown in federal hay inspection, Gra-
ham and Pinal county shippers joining
those of Maricopa and Yuma counties
in an effort to have inspection service
available by fall. The U. s. depart
ment of agriculture probably will hold
it's southwestern training school for
inspectors, set for early fall, in Ari-
zona.@ so that growers and shippers of
the state, as we'll as prospective in
spectors will have an opportunity to
take the training. k'S' z
