Much Gravel Road
Hopelessly Lost
Many Surfaced Highways Now
Plain Dirt Notwithstanding
Value Questioned

Lost, several hundred miles of
gravel road. $4,000 reward Of
fered for their return"
This want ad will not appear in
the columns of the Herald. The
iMinnesota Highway department
admits that many miles of road are
lost, but this seems to be an ex-
ception to the rule that ssit pays
to advertise" for there rs little
hope that anyone will find the lost
gravel.
Just how many miles Of gravel
roads have been "sunk in the mud"
during the last three or -four weeks
will not be known until the spring
breakup is over, when the depart
ment proposes to make "a survey to
determine where the money avail
able for regraveling shall be plac-
ed.
cat the end Of 1925 we had 833
miles of paved road, 229 'bitumin-
Gus treated, 4,151 heavy gravel,
1,O43 light gravel and 674 earth
or and clay" says Commissioner
C. M. Babcock. "It is quite APP
parent that after we get through
with this spring breakup, these fig
ures will have to be revised, ami
the figures on gravel roads great
ly reduced.
"The last four weeks have been
the most difficult the trunk high
way system has ever faced. Wealth
err conditions probably have been as
bad in some past years, but traffic
is so much greater that many roads
which would have stood up we'll
under the traffic five years ago,
are going to pieces under the grind
they get now. Registration has
doubled since 1921. AS recently
as five years ago a majority of the
cars were put up for the winter.
Now probably 80 per cent are kept
going the year around.
s'The pavements have come
through without damage and the
oiled and tarred roads have stood
up fairly well. Some of the heav-
lily graveled roads that are graded
and drained to trunk highway
standards and do not carry toe
heavy traffic have remained fair
or better. But on many others
the gravel has completely disap
peared. Last year, without any
such regraveling problem as we
have this year, it was necessary to
spend $4,250,000 for maintenance.
It will be impossible with the pres
ent maintenance allotment to re-
gravel all the roads which need re-
surfacing, and it is question
whether to allot more money for
maintenance, or to let some OF
these roads remain without re
surfacing until money is available
for paving. We have gone through
cycle of dry years and we have
cycle of wet years ahead of us
Considerable crawling will he
done. but on some of the mosf
heavily travelled roads it looks like
, waste of good funds"

Farmers Creamery at

Cooperative Unit Purchased by
Gibbon Butter Man; Deal
Takes Effect.

The st. Cloud Farmers Coop
erative creamery was sold Satur-

erative project at Fair Haven, has

Cloud plant by Mr.. Bergquist.
Farmers of the st. Cloud terri
tory have operated the creamery
through period of six years, and
have always been handicapped by
lack of finances. Lack of interest
at the very start forced the insti-
tuition into business on frail cap
ital, an obstacle that was hard to
overcome. The Gibbon man made
a good offer for the plant, and the
farmers accepted.-Journal Press.

Legion Commander Visits HIS
Minnesota Comrades


Visiting Minnesota this week,
April 80, Legion National Com
mander Howard Savage declared:
"The great job of The American
Legion for 1927 is to make the
Paris convention the epochal his
toric event it deserves to be. To
attend this convention is to par
ticipate in the greatest pilgrimage
of all time, to be part of an ac-
tivity that will attract worldwide
attention. OF the $4,000 men and
women privileged to go, thousands
have made reservations. More re-
servations are those flowing in
daily. 1T will not be long before
reservation books are slammed shut
and those who daily will be dis
appointed.
"The Legion wants this over
seas pilgrimage to be representa-
tive not alone of the Legion but
of every walk of life. The 10000
who GO should be as much a
cross section of Legion membership
as the Legion is a cross section of
American life. 1t is up to you
Legion speakers to help make it so
by spreading the message among
comrades to whom participation in
this expedition is a lifetime event,
and to whom 1t represents the one
opportunity to go to France at a
minimum of expense"

SUMMER TILLAGE
WINS RAILROAD
THROUGH NJ. PHILLIPS
AND BLAINE

HARLEM, Aug. 19.-The bis
flat, near here will have a rail
road, according to a statement
made as a elimination of the re
cent visit here of president Ralph
Budd, Great Northern railway
who was prevailed upon by prom.
inent men of the flat to inspect
the situation in that area.
The proposed line will be ap-
proximately rs miles long, leaving
the main line of the Great North
ern about one mile west of Saco,
at a point known as the big bend,
and extending north and west. 1t
will open up the entire big flat
country. Word from Saco an
LOUNGES that surveyors are now
working on the proposed line.
Although president Budd made
no definite statement as to when
the road would be completed, he
did say, that if present plans are
realized, the 1928 grain crop of
the big flat will be hauled over
the new branch.
Deciding Factor
The deciding factor in the rop
osition was the amount of summer
tillage on the flat at this time,
and credit is due no other man
of this section more than w. H.
Reed, who has consistently follow
ed this system of farming in the
face of prejudice.
The big flat committeeman have
worked upon the idea of a branch
line through their country for a
number of years, never losing
of the fact that if the show
ing of the amount of summer fall
lowed land always producing a l
crop could be exhibited to s
officials, the Great Northern would {
construct a feeder line through t
their country. S
