"cAN" THE WORD SUPPORT
(From the Nations B%usiness)

(From the Nations Business)
DO you support" your chamber
of commerce or your trade associ-
alton? Ii so. don't do it, Which
may seem strange advice from a
magazine which has fought from
the day of its foundation for or
ganized business, which has stood
for the right of industry to get
together for the common good.
But a chamber of commerce or
a trade association ought not to
be thought of as asking support,
but rather as Offering "for value
received" services which can be
had in no other way.
The man who pays his taxes
isn't supporting his town. He's
paying for protection from fire,
for street paving, for schools, for
the dozens of others things that
well-organized communities pro-
vide. We deal with the corner
grocer; we don't support him. We
buy his potatoes and canned corn
and are willing to pay for them.
So, too, with a business organi-
cation. 1t has something to sell,
services that can be bought no
where else. A member who feels
that he is getting his moneys
worth is a good member to have.

There are hundreds of Sunday

20 Members
The school boasts an enrolment
of 20 members with four classes
at present. In order to take care
of a number of children who will
become members of the Lutheran
church, plans have been discussed
and a catechism class will soon
be organized with Sigard Jensen
as teacher. This will make five
classes, one using the Lutheran
materials, the other four using in
terdenominational quarterlies
Rarely does the attendance fall
below so for each Sunday and
very often the full enrolment is
present at worship.

With fence purchased In former
years. the department will now have
nearly 500 miles of snow protec-
ton. Steel fence posts are erected
late in October or early in Novem-
Der, before the ground freezes, but
on soft fields or meadows it is i'm
possible to attach the fence until
after the ground freezes. This is
the reason it is sometimes i'm pos
sible to get the fence up before
the first snow storm.
Highway snow fence is made of
painted wood laths, " by inches,
four feet long, held together by
galvanized wire. The fence is taken
up and stored early in the spring,
and is expected to last many years.
A number of additional snow
plows have also been purchased this
year and will be distributed among
the sixteen maintenance districts.

MINNESOTA GETS IN ON
U. s. FOREST ROAD FUNDS

A total of 1,G41 ,504 was spent
in the construction of 228.3 miles
of national forest reads during the
fiscal year 1897, according to Allen
S. Peck, district forester. Denver.
Of this amount, $98s,002 were al
lotted from federal funds. The
remainder, s5a.50a was provided
by local cooperating agencies in
terested in the construction of
roads. Due to the large area of
national forests in Calarado. more
funds were spent there than in any
other state Of the district where a
total of SAT- miles was constructed
at a cost Of $60s.s55 of which
$22,555 was In the form Of local
financial cooperation. OF this mile
age, 28.4 were built on highway
specifications by the United States
Bureau Of Public Roads at a cost
of 1889 and are known as
major projects; 56.3 miles were
built by the Forest Service on less
exacting standards, chiefly as de-
VeiOpment ROADS, at cost OF $780,
256 and are known as minor pro-
jects.
In Wyoming, $50 miles were
completed at fhe e9st of sa1a,ess.
In South Dakota, 1876 miles at a
cost of $84,246. In Minnesota, 63.2
miles at a cost Of 1921, 121. In
Nebraska, miles at a cost of 49,
571.
These roads are built frem spe-
cific appropriations by congress.
The amount available to the vari-
Gus states. for road work is based
on the area and volume of forest
lands held In them by the federal
government. Forest highways are
built on high engineering standards

by the official road building organi-

culture, primarily for the benefit of
communities in and surrounding
the forests and, to greater or
less extent, dependent on them
economically.
The forest development roads are
built on less exacting specifications
usually primarily for the protection
and administration of government
property, although open for public
travel. Development roads, for the
most part are classified as minor
projects costing less than $4,000 a

STATE To KEEP
HIGHWAYS OPEN
ST. LOUIS COUNTY WILL GET
SOME OF NEW SNOW FENCES
: BOUGHT BY ROAD DEPART
MENT-EVERY POSSIBLE EF-
FORT WILL BE MADE TO
KEEP ROADS OPEN.

The Minnesota highway depart
ment is again making preparations
to keep the trunk highways open
during the coming winter. A mil
lion feet of new snow fence will be
ready this month to aid in prevent
ing snow drifts from blocking the
roads.
Commissioner C. M. Babcock en-
phasizes, however, that the depart
ment does not promise to keep all
the roads open all the time regard
less of weather. Announcements
in previous years that the depart
ment would make an effort to keep
the roads open have been construed
by people who read them hastily as
a promise to keep traffic moving at
all times. No one familiar with
Minnesota weather would dare to
make such promise. All we prom
Use is to make a reasonable effort.
But with the additional snow fence
and not worse than an average win
ter, we should come somewhere near
our goal"
st. Louis county will get it's share
of the new snow fence this month.
The fence, which Is being made at
the Minnesota Transfer, is being
shipped out at an average of three
carloads day. The manufacturer
started early in September filling
his contract at the rate of 10000
feet day and expects to complete
the entire order about the middle
of October.
By advertising for bids and plac-
ing its contract early last spring,
the department was able to get
much lower prices than those who
attempt to buy in small lots in the
open market in the fall. The bid
ders were able to make low prices
because they took less risks than
# they had to manufacture the
fence without knowing if they
could sell it ALL Another circun-
stance which helped to bring low
prices was an oversupply of lumber
suitable for lath, due to the rapid
increase in the use of composition
wall board for building purposes.
The bidder who got the contract
