GOOD ROADS THE BEST INVESTMENT Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 28. — Good roads built and maintained under Indiana’s method of financing are the best investment a state can make, declares John D. Williams, director of the state highway commission. In his opinion our plan of providing money for the state road departnent, permitting payment for oads as built and avoidance of large bond issues for future liluidation, is vastly superior to raising funds through bonded debt and settlement on the mail xrder plan. Increased license fees which earcely bring the Indiana rate up to the general average of ither states, plus a small gasoline tax provide the income for 'tale roads. Speaking of increased motor license fees. Williams pointedly emphasises! the advantage of the Indiana plan and tells what it will do in the following terse paragraphs: Your license fee saves you money. The cheapest insurance for vour car is a good road. You save money every day you drive over a state road, and state roads cost only a small per cent of the repair bill inflicted by bad roads. Why do we see so many old cars going fine? Good roads. Four years ago Indiana had no state road system. Today Indiana has 4,000 miles of state roads for you to drive over at a cost of a few cents a week. Your license fee and gasoline

Prevent bonded debt for your children to pay. Place every county seat and city of £,OOO population on a state Indiana’s *tete highway system directly serves 80 per cent of the state’s total population. .. o— THE BURDEN OF PUBLIC DEBT The net debt of the United States is nearly $31,000,000,000. of this $22,525,000,000 is the di rect result of war, and nearly one-half of that is because of loans to other nations. State debts seem to have increased 175 per cent during the past ten years, and now amount to a huge sum. City and county debts are more than $8,000,000,000, an increase of 149 per cent in 10 years and these debts are rapidly growing, in most cases tax free in order to facilitate the bond flotations. For every family of five there is $1,418.80 of public debt with an annual interest and sinking fund cost of about SBO. When it is considered that over 80 per cent of the people live in rented homes, and have to pay the tax on property that is "passed on,” it does not require the services of an expert to show where the burden is borne. o : — For sale bills go to the Journal office.

THE BYRA CUBE JWRJTAE

LIVESTOCK REPORT FOR INDIANA The number of horses and other cattle on farms in Indiana decreased 2 per cent last year while milk cows and sheep nade a gain of 2 per cent and 8 per cent respectively. The number of mules remained approximately the same as a year ago, but swine decreased 3 per cent according to the report issued today by the cooperative crop reporting service for Indiana. Prices per head for horses, mules, other cattle and marine show a decline, but for milk cows and sheep a slight increase is shown. The report follows: The number of horses on Indiana farms decreased 2 per cent during the past year, but the number of mules on hand - remained approximately the same as a year ago. The estimate for horses January 1, 1924 is 682,000 head and for mules 101,000 head. Individual reports also show that fewer colts were foaled in 1923 than the preceding year or for many years. Automobiles* trucks and tractors continue to supplant horses and mules on the farms to a great extent, making them a very unprofitable product when produced for the market for prices are still on the downward trend. The estimated value of all horses in Indiana is placed at $45,012,000 compared with $51,504,000 for last year. For mules the value this year is estimated to be 7,070,000 compared with 7,777,000 last year.

An increase of 2 per cent is shown in the number of milk rows on Indiana farms January 1, 1924. the estimated number beng 757,000 head January 1, 1923. The quaJitv of this class of live stock continues to improve and Indiana is now the leading state in the number of accredited herds of tubercular tested cattle. The average price of milk cows for the state, January 1, was $55 ner head, an increase of $2.00 ovsr last year. The total value of ill cows and heifers kept for milking purposes is estimated to he $41,635,000 compared with $39,326,000 last year The number of all other cattle in the state January 1, 1924, was 2 per cent less than a year ago on the same date and includes all cattle and calves, except cows and heifers kept for dairy purposes. The total value this year is estimated to be $24,694,000 compared with $25,726,000 or an average of about 70 cents less per head. While there’ seems to be an increase in feeding operations, especially in the northern part of the state, there is also an apparent shortage of eows and heifers. This is probably due to the labor situation more than any other thing. The number of sheep on Indiana farms made an increase of 8 per cent over last year, the Primate being 700,000 head, compared with 648.000 heftd on hand January 1. 1923. ' Feeding operations were somewhat in excess of last year and the number of breeding ewes also seem to increase. The price is approximately 40 cents a head better than a year ago and the total value is estimated to be $5,880.000 compared with $5,184,000 last year. The demand for good rtock is quite brisk and the industry continues in a favorable condition in view of experiences during the last few years. A decrease of 3 per cent in the number of swine on Indiana farms January 1, this year is primarily the result of heavy marketing, during the past few months, of sows and gilts intended for breeding purposes. The number on hand is estimated to be 3,880.000 head, compared with 4.000,000 head January 1, 1923. The average value per head is $2.10 less than last year and the total value is estimated to be $38,024,000 compare,d with $47,600, a year ago. o Reports filed with the Department of Labor from about 7,000 manufacturing establishments show’ a decrease in employment of about 70,000 during the last five months of 1923.

FOoSfeRICES GOING UP According to an analysis of the food price index of the United States Department of Labor, the cost of family food supplies are Readily climbing, now being 51 per cent above pre war level. The highest figure reached during 1921 was 52 per cent, but it decreased to 39 per cent. The rise in 1922 was 8.6 per cent, and the continued rise in 1923 was 4 r*er cent more. New York is highest with 60 per cent Boston and Washington next with 59 pegr cent, Baltimore and Chicago 57 per cent, Pittsburgh 56 ner cent. Salt Lake City i«. the lowest with 32 per cent. Eighteen cities had increases over the average and nineteen cities were below average. In England the cost is 77 per cent above the prices of 1914. In 1921 it stood at 99 per cent and at one time in 1920 at 169 per cent. The cost of family food in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Rusfiia. and in fact all European countries, are compar ativ e1 y higher than in the United States, and that fact has a tendency to increase the costs here, under the law of supply and demand.

The new Labor Premier of England will be compelled to create a couple of peers. The constitution requires that the Secretary of State and the Foreign office shall have a seat in the House of Lords—and no man may address the upper chamber unless he be a member of that class.
