NEW ROUTING OF NO. 15 According to information received in Warsaw, the new routing of No. 15 in Kosciusko county as contemplated by the Indiana state highway commission < will mean that a right-of-way of approximately six miles will have to l>e purchased so the road can go west of the interurban tracks into Elkhart county. This being the case Kosciusko county will have approximately 14 miles to pave and Elkhart county only three miles. This it is said, is why Elkhart county and the cement interests are trying to saddle the 25 per cent county aid plan on Kosciusko countv for the cementing of highway No. 15 from Warsaw to Goshen. This county would have to furnish free fourteen miles of right-of-way and in addition 25 per cent of the cost of the cement paving would make an additional debt of from SIS,(MX) to $20.000 to this county under the county aid plan. Cement roads built as cheaply as possible in this county have cost $21,000 a mile and the state road is two feet wider, which would make the entire road in this county cost probably $50,000 to $70,000. one-fourth the cost to be paid by this county. HOW TIMES CHANGE Come to think of it. what offers better evidence of how’ rapidly times have changed than our grocery stores? Most Syracuse citizens can remember w’hen canned goods were sold far from plentiful, groceries being <ol<l in bulk. Most of the sugar was a somewhat soft, white brand, called "coffee crush.” The codfish bucket and the kerosene barrel lay down together, so to speak, and their combined odor proclaimed the place as a grocerystore. The only herring was smoked and strung on strings running through the fishes’ gills. And a slogan along about that time was "Drain your measure,” especially referring to. the cold season when molasses ran slowly from the measure into the customer’s jug. Now look at the grocery store, with its mechanical contrivances, and almost everything—sugar, molasses and all—either in cartoons, cans or glasses. Anyone who seeks to find how rapidly times have changed need go no farther than a grocery store.

HEAT your home 'with one piece of FURNITURE Here is a marvelous heating unit encased in a rich, mahogany finish cabinet. It circulates warm humid air to all parts of the house. And the Circulator keeps that cur- t/C rent of healthfully moistened air moving in such volume that when al Circulator goes into a house three or four stoves can come out. Think ■ of the dirt, the dust, the muss and I trouble this saves the housekeeper, think of the actual physical labor of coal-carrying and ash-removal that W QUAKER Heat Circulating CABINETS BECKMAN’S Home Furnishings Phone 71

O . “TO I UHDOWN" Last year 15,000,000 Americans joined in one mighty shout w’hich echoed across the length and breadth of the land and that roar of human voices was raised in uttering one word "Touchdown!” For football during the season of 1926 reached proportions which make it a serious contender with baseball for the title of “the great * national game” and the 1927 season finds it promising to become even more important than last year. If you would know’ how football has become “big business” in the United States and why it draw’s such crowds during its short season, be sure to read the illustrated feature article. “Touchdown!” by Elmo Scott Watson, in this issue of the Journal.

PINCHING THeTtHER WAY The spectacle of anthracite coal miners and operators peacefully gathering about the council table to discuss what can be done to increase the demand for their product, indicates that one branch of the great coal business is beginning to see something of greater importance than the matter of a few cents per ton in wages. During the hard coal strike of two years ago a discouraged and disquieted people adopted measures to use other fuel. r n Massachusetts, alone, house-, holders are now using gas, electricity. oil and coke equivalent to 1,250,000 tons of anthracite—or about 20 per cent of former sales. Other states report similar conditions. The public never has objected to paying increased prices for coal provided the increase went to the miner, but the public is weary of the periodic strike its uncertainties and its speculative prices. Coal producers are no longer masters of the heat and power field and it is doubtful if any possible joint action will prevent a further restriction of the business. — o * FUR FARMING Fur farming, or raising of fur animals in captivity, has steadily developed until the investment in the business in the United States and Alaska is about $30.000,000, and in Canada about $11,000,000. There are more than 4,000 fur farmers in these countries most of them raising silver or blue foxes. - Fur farming is also being undertaken in European countries and in Japan, w’here it is having a steady growth. ■ o Subscribe for the Journal.
