With $500,000 additional for rnral routes, made available between now and the first of next July, the general superintendent of the free rural delivery system expects to put in at least 2,500 new routes before May 1. Indiana will probably get about 125 of these new routes, possibly 150. This will bring the total number of routes in Indiana up to more than 1,000, and the total number in the whole country to 15,000. Ship Canal Scheme Revived. The Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin commenting editorially on the prospective drainage of the Kankakee valley in northern Indiana offers the suggestion that the big ditch be made of ship canal proportions and extended to Lake Michigan, that the farmers of the reclaimed regions may get the benefits derived from the shipping facilities of the great lakes.
