BUILD FOR TOMORROW:— The following editorial is sent out by the National Highway Association and is worth your careful thought: "Who builds for the present, builds only for the past," was not written of good roads, but is as true of them as of temples and meeting halls. The organization which, knowing it is growing, builds only for its present membership, soon finds it has built too small. The "present," which soon comes, brings a membership too big lor the building. The hard road built just big enough, wide enough, strong enough, well enough for today's traffic, is built for tomorrow, too, only when it is known that the traffic does not, can not grow. But there are few places where traffic does not grow! The village of today is the thriving town of tomorrow. The town of today is the big city of tomorrow, and the big city of the immediate moment becomes the huge city of the mxt one! When the Boston Post Road was built, no such thing as the “capacity of a road" was known. But today, this road (among many) is strained against its capacity limits most of" the time, and always on Sundays and holidays. The good roads connecting any two large cities of the nation: Boston and New York, New York and Albany. Baltimore and Philadelphia. Cleveland and Toledo, Chicago and Detroit, to mention only a few, are often inadequate to carry the traffic which seeks them. They do carry the traffic, but at greatly reduced speed, and spefid is as much a part of transport as motion. New roads should always be built for tomorrow; never for today. For "tomorrow" soon becomes ‘‘today, and the roa’d. b g enough and to spare for present needs,'is speedily used up to its capacity. To paraphase the quotation, "Only he who builds for the future, builds for the present!” Another complication in the affairs of Indiana'is disclosed or rather is brought up for an investigation which will disclose. The last legislature provided what was called the governor's emergency fund of sl2a,Ottp to be used as needed between April Ist, 1923 and April Ist, 1924. It was argued at the time that the money was to safe guard the state institutions and was to be used when emergencies arose as they do some times. Several of these demands are up now and institutions are asking for money. When it was arranged for them to get it, the fact was disclosed that these is but $l6O of the $125,000 left amt no one seems l<> know what became of it. Even Governor McCray is surprised and other officials arc non plused. The news dispatches fail to say whether they are surprised that there is still $l6O left or jus what it is that startles them. Cer tainly not the mere disappearance o suite funds will surprise any om these days. It seems to have a wa; of slipping out from under us. Am way its another little chapter. Did you know that many years agi in the earliest days of Indiana am

■during the first fifteen or twent; years of Adams county, there wai 'an Indian reservation of 1,600 acret ; I near Rivare. There was and it's ai 1 interesting story, splendidly told bj ' i "F. Q.” in a feature which will ap ; pear in Saturday's paper. You wil r 1 enjoy It and some day when looking for an interesting drive you cun by ir following directions motor around the tract and perhaps by spending n little time find the unmarked graves along the St. Marys river of two hall gibreed Indians who received the title 0 from President Monroe in the days s when the redskin and the pioneer was ® making history in this section for B others to write later. 0 0 • J According to a dispatch from WashI ington, John A. M. Adair is not a candidate for governor of Indiana or tor congress. He is interested in Hoosier politics of course and there is some discussion that he may be the candidate for the United States mate against James Eli Watson in 1926 but just now he is looking after important business interests and desirous only of assisting those who stood for him when he asked the j suffrage of the people. J' _ — , Navy To Insist On Its Game At Pasadena, Calif. (By Henry L. Farrell) (!'. P. Staff Correspondent) ' | New York, Nov. 15.—Disappointed ’tat the rather poor showing oi the 1 navy team in the east this fall, the • tournament of roses committee would t rather have another eastern team lor i the- annual New Year's pus' season , game at Pasadena, it lies been learned from reliable sources. The navy Ims been uiiici t’ly invited ' and has accepted, however, and only i I proposition from this end can call '' off the navy trip with diplomacy. One navy officer said that there could be no doubt now that the Cali- ; forni.i committee might prefer an- ! other team for the post season game as it is always desirable to have two i unbeaten teams in the game, but that : the navy hardly would favor any sug- • guestion.': to ease the midshipmen out [ of the game. Last week the tournament of roses, it is understood wanted Notre Dame in ■ preference to th navy, b'd its de ■ feat by Nebraska removed it as a ; champion outfit.

CANNING IN INDIANA This State Is One Os Leading States In Canning Os Food Lafayette, Ind., Nov. 14 —Indiana become one of the loading canning states of the nation during the last few years, according to data compiled by the Horticultural Department of Purdue University. The state leads all others in canning of tomi toes, baked beans, all other beans, pumpkin and hominy, is third on both onions and cucumber pickles, sixth In kraut pack, seventh in corn and eighth in peas. The value of all canned products produced in the state last year was $22,181,121. the output of 125 factories. Approximately 70,000.000 cans of tomatoes were turned into the nation's food channels last year by In diana canneries, most of the yield >t 60,000 acres being devoted to thb purpose. Sixty million cans of bak beans, put up in Indiana, made th" , lamed Boston product look like a pigmy. Besides this, there were a half millions cans of other b< ana. About 6,000.000 bushels of pickles, t grown in the state, found their wav ■

Into one of the “57" vsrltles. Although there were 16,000,000 cans of corn packed In the state last year, six other states topped Indiana on quantity but not quality. The pack of peas was 6.000,000 cans and kraut, 2.000. Besides these Important lines, all other crops grown in the middle west and used for canning purposes were canned to u more or less extent. “This state has taken the first place for quality as well as quantity It: many lines of canned foodstuffs and Indiana products are obtaining a national reputation rapidly because, of it," said one of the horticultural men. The Indiana dinners' Association bus taken steps to arouse a keener appreciation within the state for Indiana canned products, starting with a hit display of canned vegetabzlcs it the reeefit horticultural show at Purdue. Others will lie held over the state. ».. - - - HOGS ON INCREASE Small Increase Shown In Number Os Hogs On Farms tn U. S. . J , Numbers of stock hogs on farms in the United States on September 1 were three-tenths of one per cent

, more than on the same date in 1922, i the United States Department of Ag- ; riculture reports in a special survey. The increase In the Corn Belt States ! is placed at 413 per cent. The indicated increase In these slates agree* rather closely with the 5.8 per cent increase indicated in the June pig survey of the department, it is point od out. Lack of similar close argeoinent In other states is attributed to slower turnover and the larger percentage of births in the second hall of the year. Increases in the Corn Belt States are: Ohio. 2 per cent; Indiana, 1 per cent; Illinois, 6 per cent; lowa, 4 per cent; Missouri, 7 per cent; Nebraska, 4 per cent; Kansas, 7 per cent, and South Dakota. S per cent. The largest percentage increase is shown in Nevada and Idaho where the increase is estimated at 20 per cent.
