Wo nre being treated to n demon stration of what happens when tho arteries of commerce become dis eased, congested and run down. The lack of adequate transportation facili ties) on the rullroads of this country mounts Into tho millions of dollars in tho delays that are occasioned. Our railway system, like our agricultural methods, have grown up so gradually, keeping nbroast, even ahead of tho de mands of commerce, we have come to look upon them as a matter of course. Hut tho even balance between trans portation facilities and demands of commerce Is easily upset, as the ex perience of the past few months has demonstrated. Our railroad system needs rehabili tation. Hut along with the Improve- t fa v!W Better Roads Would Permit Increaso In Tonnage by Motor Vehicles. ments of tho railroads there Is great need for a material Improvement throughout the land. Over tho coun try roads move the raw" materials that go to make up a vast proportion of the tonnage carried by tho railroads. The present freight congestion has emphasized the Importance of the country road. It has proved the value of hard surface roads as passageways for freight carried In motortrucks and automobiles. Much relief for the railroads has come through the Immense tonnnge that has moved this summer on motor trucks. A greater tonnage, would un doubtedly have moved In the same manner If our highway system had been lit. The time has come when tho mileage of concrete, brick or other hard-surfaced roads must extend In an ever-Increasing network until the re motest parts of tho country can have the advantage of quick transportation every day of the year In a motor ve hicle. American Fruit Grower. ROCK FOR HIGHWAY BUILDING First Systematic Efforts to Determine Value Were Made In French Laboratory In 1878. The first systematic attempts to de termine the value of rock for road building purposes by means of labor atory testa were made In France, where In 1878 a road materials lab oratory was founded In the French School of Bridges nnd Roads. Ilero the Devnl abrasion test wns adopted, and this test with slight modifica tion has been accepted as standard throughout the United States. The test In named from Its Inventor. It wns first used In connection with con tract work In the city of Paris. Many valuable data were collected In this laboratory on the hardness nnd tough ness of rock, nnd tests for these prop erties were developed which were. In principle, the same as those In use today. ARGUMENT FOR GOOD ROADS Judgment Rendered Against County Because Culvert Was Obscured by Weed Patch. An argument for good roads that carries with It n sharp punch In the way of n substantial Judgment for damnges Is disclosed In n recent de cision of tho supremo court of Wis consin. In this case It appears that when a riinchlno went nut of tho trnf flc path of an old-fashioned country rond for the purpose of letting a tractor pass It struck the cement curbing nt the end of n culvert which crossed tho rond at this point. Be ing covered with weeds the obstruc tion wns not seen until the accident occurred. Tho county wns held llablo In damages for the accident. USING CONCRETE FOR ROADS Building Going on at Rate of Mile a Week With Equipment of Mich igan Contractor. With tho over-lncrenslng Interest In tho necessity of building good roads there conies the effort to build them good and fast. With the special equip ment that n Michigan contractor Is using concrste roads are constructed at the rate of a mile a week. m m FOR AFTERNOON OR EVENING WEAR T11EUI3 are a good many women j who have no use for more thnn one or two frocks for formal wear nnd who are sensible enough to buy only what they can use, no matter how ample their means. These women want conservative styles, equal to serving for both ufternoon nnd eve ning. They rely on accessories to tone up such gowns to the. requirements of any dressy function. With the return of nets nnd dyed laces to favor and tho perennial black lace and sutln dress there ore offered two very safe choices. And there nre added to these in the new dlsplnys, very handsome frocks In silver cloth' embroidered with Jet, In duvetyn com bined with metallic and other bro- tfcades, In vfcllinga draped over satin nnd, more than all, embroidered frocks In which silk or glittering bends brighten up quiet colors on crepe de chine, satlp, charmeuso or wool fab rics. Two frocks that will prove an en during Joy to their wearers and servo for any sort of formal wear ore shown In the picture. At the left a brown net About the Season's Blouses EXGKl'T for some elaborate, much decorntedlmd sometimes stnrtllng models, which might be clnssed ns "ex hibition blouses," the fall season has not brought In many designs that can lay claim to originality In theso very popular garments. But why should designers strlvo for new Ideas while wo are well satisfied with those we huvo and contlnuo to buy them? The search for Komothlng new does not go entirely unrewarded even when the too-elnbornto models are not count ed In tho finds. Among the tailored blouse's there are some In which crepe do chine Is used for long-sleeved mod els that have turned back cuffs of pique and collars of this material that roll high at tho back and open In n long "V" at tho front. This combina tion ot materials Is new and tho col lar unusually becoming and modest looking. Plaits and points ure outstanding feutures of the handsome new blouse pictured. A soft flgu,red crepo do chine, with large dots Is made up with satin to match and worn over a satin slip with accordlon-plalted skirt. Bands of plcot-edged ribbon alternate .vlth rows of dots on It nnd tho skirt Is sus pended from a yoke of satin corded nt the edge to give It a flare. The wide girdle Is of satin, nnd there Is n elmrt, folded vestee of It and folds of satin finish the sleeves. Black charmeuso nnd chantllly Inco flouncing make tho dignified frock at the right of the picture. The lace forms a long overdress extending across the sides and back of the full sntln skirt. The sleeves and underbodlce nre of lace and the satin overblouse affords an example of a new nnd much ad mired neckline. Even In evening dresses the low decolletago Is being re placed by a straight neckline. The girdle of this dress Is worth noticing, for It Is very pretty nnd new. Ameri can Beauty In color It Is made of wide, soft sntln ribbon twisted and wound with n twisted silver ribbon Into u rope that encircles tho waist and Is looped and knotted nt tho left side. . Joins forces with plaited georgette tc make this Ingenious model, tho geor gette forming the uppor portion of the blouse and sleeves. It ends In points from which are suspended loops of the material fastened to the points with small, sntln ornaments. The crepe de chine falls over the pValted georgette which forms tho lower part of the blouse and tho peplum. A belt of tho crepe slips through tho suspended loops nnd confines the blouse at the waist line. The frills that finish the sleeves are wide and the sleeves them selves rnther largo and slightly flaring. The new neck line appears In this model nnd, altogether, It Is about tho most promising In style nnd attractive ness that has como up for Judgment thus far. V. (. 1S20. Western NewioaDer Union.)

There must be cal- H culating before the figures are ready for the s bookkeeper to enter: footing, checking, making extensions, figuring discounts, get- H ting percentages. This "scratch pad" figur- H ing takes a large part of the time of anyone who has anything to do with business HI figures. It's costly, too, when done in the H ordinary way. H The Burroughs Calculator adds, HI subtracts, multiplies and divides, without g printing the figures, just by depression of H the keys. It is, therefore, very fast, and, of H course, accurate; It brings speed and econ- omy to the biggest figure-job in business. H There is a place for the Burroughs Calculator jH in every office that has figures to handle. HI Omaha Office: H Masonic Building, Douglas and 19th Streets HI - R. J. Beckley, Mgr.
