are satisfactory for purposes of traf-
fic. The Jefferson highway was a
dream in men's minds for a few
months, then it became a highway on
paper for a matter of a few weeks.
Rapidly now the ribbon of gravel and
rock and concrete is unrolling through
Winnipeg, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Des
Moines, Kansas City, St. Joseph, Jop-
lin. Muskogee, Denison, Shreveport,
Baton Rouge and New Orleans, tra-
versing the agricultural heart of Amer-
ica. the most broadly developed agri-
cultural country in tho world. In less
than three years' time the great high-
way not merely ought to be bftt will
be transferred from men's mind and
from paper to the ground, a 2,000-mile,
I hard-surfaced, 365-day road from Win*
I nipeg to New Orleans.
Social Advancement.
| Good roads always contribute to tne
1 social advancement of the community.
To# n and city folks are greatly bene-
fited. but farmers are real beneficiaries
' on account of the saving in time and
! labor in marketing farm products.
Encouragement to Birds.
Were our highways bordered with
! trees, we should find such feathered
visitors as our bluebirds, robins,
thrushes, catbirds, song sparrows,
bluejays and orioles living within our
I view.

HORSEPOWER" is a misleading phrase. It is
sometimes wrongly used to carry the idea of
something unusual, exceptional—some startling
innovation.
We don't claim anything we can't prove. We
don't mislead by reference to a technical subject you
don't understand.
