RECOGNIZED MENACES TO HIGHWAY TRAVEL High weeds and brush if obstructing sight distances, particularly at road intersections, are recognized menaces to highway travel, due to traffic density. In this same class comes tall growing crops in fence corners, especially at turns and curves. Particularly is this true of corn which now is of sufficient height t<x in some cases, obstruct the view of motorists. In its campaign, designed to make highway traffic as near safe as possible, state road officials recently called on their maintenance forces to bear in mind the importance of cutting tall weeds anckclearing away brush at such places where an open view of the road might be obstructed. A. H. Hinkle, maintenance superintendent, pointed out in a letter to his field assistants that the time was at hand when he expected them to get busy with mower, scythe and axe. Discussing the growing corn menace in fence corners, John D. Williams, highway director, pointed out that a dangerous condition exists at road intersections due to the tall corn planted out to the fence. “We are hoping,” he said, “that from publicity given this subject in past years, and the accounts of accidents resulting from such obstructed views, that we will have the cooperation not only from our own forces but also the farmers, in keeping highways and railroad intersections free and open. Many an accident will undoubtedly be prevented if this is done, and very likely tragedy also averted.” EVERY BUSINEvSS DAY 88,000,000 quarts of milk. 36.000,000 pieces of pie. I, pairs of shoes. 11. automobiles. $16,000,000 for initial premiums for life insurance. $12,000,000 for the operation of automobiles. $3,500,000 for electricity (sales of electrical energy. $2,800,000 for gasoline. $1,000,000 for electrical appliances. SBOO,OOO for residential light fixtures. $600,000 for radio sets. $400,000 for electric light bulbs $250,000 for Brazilian coffee. $5,000 for Mah Jongg sets. These figures, selected at random, serve unusually well to give an indication of the immensity of the American market, because they all refer to but a single day’s purchases by the great army of prosperous American consumers.

U. S. POPULATION j Eleven cities have grown \nto the 100,000 population class dur- ( ing the last year. Estimates of population of the principal cities ( of the country up to July 1, thisfl year, show there are 78 havin/ j 100,000 or more as compared with 68 last year. The census bureau ( in preparing the estimate < not calculate the population vs ’ some c.f the, rapidly growing cities such as Detroit, Los Angeles. Seattle, Denver, Akron, Bridgeport, Houston and Spokane. The population of the country on July 1 is estimated at 112,078,611. The relative rank of some of the cities is unchanged by their newly estimated population. New Orleans has passed Cincinnati, Oakland’s population has grown so that it now outranks St. Paul and Providence and Springfield, Mass., has passed Grand Rapids. New York has passed the 6,000,000 mark, Chicago approaches 3,000,000 and Philadelphia the 2,000,000 mark, while Cleveland is somewhat short of a million. Detroit, for which no estimate was made likely has passed the million mark as its population was estimated at almost 996,000 a year ago. The estimate of the population of Indianapolis is given as 335,450. REFUSED TO VOTE It is astonishing how many voters who have the right of suf- ! frage refuse to make use of that • right. The total vote cast in 1920 | for presidential candidates was j 26,713,832 or 8,000,000 more than twere cast in 1916. But in 1920 there were 25,705,063 stay-at-homes. This seems almost incredible. Kentucky had the best record in the percentage of votes cast, there being 24 absent out of each 100; Indiana was third with 35 out of each 100. Among the states that cast less than half i of the total vote were Pennsyl--1 vania, New Hampshire, Vermont, California, Arizona, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and several other southern states. The stay-at-homes are most numerous in states where one party or the other has a preponderance of the vote. It is in close states where the voters turn out better; but there is room for improvement in many of them. o HOW TO FLAVOR COFFEE There is a best way of doing everything—even of putting sugar and cream in your coffee. In fact, to put sugar and cream in your coffee is quite wrong, according to Popular Science Monthly. The really correct procedure is to put cream in the cup, then the coffee and add the sugar last of all. This will prevent the cream from “feathering” should it be slightly sour. Coffee poured on cream and sugar in a cup is almost certain to result in the cream’s curdling. 0 r NOW BELIEVES IN BANKS Mrs. Mary Fisk, 81, ofcWashingtou, didn’t believe in banks. She carried $20,825 pinned to her corset. When her stays became old she threw it in the trash. She did not think about the money until the rubbish had been collected. The police finally found the corset and the wealth in a trash can across the street from the Fisk home. Now Mrs. Fisk deposits in three banks. . o Salvation Army The Salvation Army, of Fort Wayne, will hold a meeting at Redmon Park, Dewart Lake, Sunday, Aug. 24, at 3 p. m., and probably at 7:30 p. m. also.

SOME STARTLING STATISTICS] ’ What of your government, locol and state? The Indiana Taxpayers’ Association, a non-partisan body of business men has sent out the following to local organizations: “The total of all state and local taxes on property in Indiana collectible in 1924 is $124,866,790 This is 8.6 per cent more than in 1923; 65.1 per cent more than in 1920; 108.9 per cent more than < in 1917; 203.5 per cent more than in 1912; and 472.1 per cent more than in 1900, in which year the total was $21,825,127. During this period the population of the state has increased only 16.4 per ceirt. Our total state and local tax bill in Indiana, therefor, is almost six times what it was in 1900, while in the same period our population has grown only one-sixth. SEVEN THOUSAND WASPS ’ Os all the news teday, for permanent value nothing is more important than the importation by the State of Ohio, of seven thousand wasps from France. These peculiar French wasps are brought.here to fight the corn borer. They and their children’s children might save the country hundreds of millions a year. o DANCE HALL COLLAPSES Buckeye Lake, Ohio, Aug, 8. — ! While 500 negroes were dancing . at the jjavilion here last night, ’ the southwest end crashed into I the water below, killing six negroes and seriously injuring six others. The crash came near the . end of the annual negro day cele- ' bration. - j MOONSHINE STILL CAPTURED r f Prohibition agents and mem- . bers of the Fort Wayne police department late Thursday after- . noon captured a monster moonr shine still near the Fort Wayne . country club just west of Fort i Wayne. The still was hidden in > a woods. It was one of the larg- ; est stills ever located in northern I Indiana. About 1200 gallons of t mash was found. t o y WARSAW MASONIC BUILDING Work has been started in Warsaw on the new Masonic building J which will be erected on the site -of the old M. E. church.
