The land surveyed was Jennings' counts 383 square miles, in Indiana. Pqrnons of a parish in Louisiana liad pret'Toiisly been photographed from an airplane but this is the j first time that air photographs for a base-map for a soil survey were made for a complete county. Ap proximately 430 aerial photographs! were taken from altitudes varying \ from 13,000 to 15,000 feet. The project enlisted the co-opera tion of the federal department of agriculture and Purdue university agriculture experiment station Parts of three days were consumed in doing the job, since unfavorable weather conditions did not permit uninterrupted air-surveying. All Details at a Glance The photographs show roads, houses, streams, soil boundaries, eroded areas, as well well as the dis tribution of woodland, fields, shocks of corn and character of crops. Mark Baldwin of the Washington office of the bureau of chemistry and soils, says while ground sur veying is necessary for examination of subsoils, the airplane has proved its worthiness as an accurate and speedy method for outlining soil boundaries and defining areas of soil erosion. The comparative costs of soil sur veying by ground method and from the air, points out Baldwin, is the determining factor that will hinder or speed up the development of soil-mapping by airplane. The 383 square miles comprising Jennings | county were surveyed at a cost of ~Yf— ——■ ' ’’w-*n This is the type of ramera ami the method, used in taking the sol) photographs of Jcnningc county, Indiana. less than one cent an acre, and other coucties could be mapped in a similar manner at costs verying from $2,000 to $3,000 for each coun ty, depending upon its size. The airplane also reduces the nec essary ground surveying by about one-half, Baldwin adds. Can Reach Difficult Spots Dr. A. G. McCall, chief of soil In vestigation of the bureau of chemis try and soils, in a recent experi mental flight over the Everglades of Florida, realized the advantages of the airplane for observation and mapping of soils not easily accessi ble to ground soil-surveying instru ments. In the cotton belt of the south, the boll weevil, which takes an an nual cottcn toll of $200,000,000, Is subject to air tracks.

POCKETBOOK APPEAL. The bridge that spans the River Sioux, Out at North Riverside. Is plenty long and plenty strong. And also plenty wide; It's smooth and lair, a pleasant way, All save its wet approach, But that has bumps my Flivver jumps. To groan in pained reproach. And further on, beneath the tracks Of the Milwaukee road, Full other lumps and further thumps. As dragons’ teeth are sowed; And right across the pavement there They in the shadow lurk. To rouse my ire, bust Lizzzie's tire, And give my spine a jerk. These defects are not new at all, But have been there for years. To make expense beyond all sense And break up auto gears. Though I would live a long time yet, Till many years have passed, As my abode lies o’er this road, I can’t much longer last. That doesn't make much differ ence, Except, of course, to me; But ere I go, up? or below? I hope someone will see, That loads of stock must come this road, To o’er it bump and toss. And every head that it knocks dead Is quite a vital loss. —Sam Page. ... ♦♦ The Issue In China. From New York World. The present civil war in China is a step in the task of dealing with an issue which every other large Canada and Power. From Pierre Capital-Journal. A great deal is heard about the law enforcement in Canada and about public rights, but the great est interest that Canadian people are taking is in the matter of pub lic service and control of public utilities. Hydro-electric has been furnishing Canada with electric, power at about one third what the American people pay. Over there it is public ownership controlling; here in the United States it is city ser vice and the unlimited subsidiaries. The people of Canada propose to have all the benefit possible for the individual. The majority over there favor privileges to the masses, In country has faced: That of the di vision of power and authority be tween the central government and the various local areas. The United States had this problem from the very beginning, and in spite of a four-year civil war it still is not settled Americans talk of “states' rights.” The Chinese talk of provin cial autonomy.” The old empire nominally was under the direct and complete con trol of the emperor. Practically, however, the governors of the provinces, or the Viceroys who ruled over two;or three provinces, were virtually supreme in their own ter ritory. The vast size of the country and the lack of quick and easy com munications made this inevitable. When the republic was started a constitution was adopted which gave the president considerable independ ent power. The first real president, Yuan Shih-kai, being a strong man, started to concentrate all the pow er he could in his own hands. When he died, and a series of lesser men filled the presidency, the authority of the central government gradu ally faded away until it almost ceased to exist even nominally. When the nationalists adopted the constitution of the present gov ernment, in October, 1928, they side stepped this question of centraliza tion by setting a committee at the head of the government, but with out defining whether the chairman of that committee or the committee itself should be the real authority. Chiang Kai-shek, who also is an aggressively vigorous man, as chair man of the state council since its formation, has sought to make ot that chairmanship substantially a personal dictatorship. Other promi nent leaders in China have opposed this tendency. Personal ambition stead of profit to the classes. An Ontario dispatch says: “Hydro, Ontario's publicly-owned power system, continues to buy up private plants.
