going to die and asked him:
"YOu wouldn't tell q Lie now,

into the tub?"
Although racked with pain, toe

Lewis, who has served pre-

OF the Federal Tariff Commission
under appointment Of the late
President Woodrow Wilson, served
that body with distinction, it is
said. Is looked upon in Montgom-

who could be put up In opposl-

the county each time he has
asked the suffrage Of the voters.
Zihlman is said to be accumu-

strength In the upper counties of

trae Of Allegheny county, where
the voters are said to maintain
that Zihlman was innocently

One County Feared
No less q person than one Of
the most important Democratic
leaders in Montgomery county
yesterday said that Allegheny
county Is the only county unit
that stands In the way of Lewis

conceded Garrett county to Zihl

claim Washington county by only

coming along with the largest
Lewis majority in the district.
They give Allegheny county to
Zihlman by a reduced majority,

On the other hand, Republican

Contracts let for post offices for the
first six months show an increase of
over 100 per cent as compared with the
same period last year.
During the first three months of
1880 the highway departments of the
various states let contracts amounting
to 124 per cent more than they let in
the first three months of 1929.
The states also let contracts for state
institutions in excess of contracts let
for the first six months of 1929. The
figure for hospitals and similar nat
ional, state and local institutions was
627 per cent greater for the first half
of 1880 than for the same period in
1929.
The contracts let for educational in
situations for the first six months of

month average for the years 1925 to

THE VALUE OF PAVING
DEMONSTRATED BY BUILDER

An Iowa contractor has discovered
some important facts relative to the
value of paving.
This man had somewhere around a
ten mile strip of paving which required
the hauling of material wholly from
one end of the line. He paved about
one-half of this section next to his
supply station first. He then used this
five mile strip for hauling his material
for the last half Of the job Some of
the haulers were working by the load.
The standard price was twenty five
cents per load per mile. Because part
of this haul was on pavement the price
was cut to Is cents per load per mile.
The haulers made more money at the
lower rate on paving than they could
have made on the higher rate on dirt.
This man figured that on his own
trucks he saves one-half of the oper-
ating cost where he can use pavement.
Where his cost is twenty cents per mile
on dirt he can operate at ten cents per
mile on pavement.
There isn't any guess work in this
case. The man knows his stuff. Ex-
perience has demonstrated to him the
value O. paving in hauling loads.
Recently local people drove east on
the Lincoln highway, leaving Council
Bluffs about II o'clock P. M. Trucks
carrying livestock to the Omaha yards
were frequently met as far east and
north as Denison. Forty truck loads
of stock were on this road that night.
What will paved roads save to Iowa
stock raisers when they can transport
to the primary market at Omaha with
little shrink from Hamburg, Corning,
Adair, Audubon, Denison, Onawa and
all points between these places and the
market?-Council Bluffs Nonpareil.

EDITORS, BUREAU LEADERS
SUGGEST DROUTH RELIEF

The Minnesota Editorial Association,
through its Farm Bureau Committee
chairman Col. E. E. Howard, editor of
the Wheaton Gazette, believes that the
press of Minnesota can perform a
significant part in helping the drouth
area of the country by pointing out to
their farmer readers the necessity of
conserving every bit of grain, hay fod-
der and straw this fall for feed. No
straw pile should be burned Straw
may be used for roughage for the
stock at home while grain and hay may
be shipped.
There will undoubtedly be better
prices for feed before spring, but re-
CARELESS of prices, there is such an
actual shortage that saving roughage
in the districts where there is a fair
crop may mean that the concentrated
feed released for shipment will actu-
ally save the lives of stock in the
drouth area.
The drouth probably will force
thousands of head into the livestock
markets this fall in an unfinished con-
dition and prices will tumble so the
off from the market until it is really
finished, even if he has to borrow
money to do it. After the sacrifice
market there will be a shortage if
animals are kept on the farm and that
will be good time to hold up market
ing until prices get right.
Minnesota is in good shape this fall
but there is no feed to waste if this
state is to do it's part in helping the
farmers in less fortunate areas, Farm
Bureau officials and Minnesota editors
assert.
