KANSAS CITY LOSES CROWD

Frank L. Haller, ylce president of tha
Linlnger Implement company, has re
turned from Kansas City where he wss in
attendance at a meeting or the retail im

Oklahoma.
The attendance was smaller than ever.
said Mr. Haller. Kanaas City is noted tor
keeping open bouse on these occasions, but
this time the entertainment feature was
done away with and this may have had a
tendency of keeping down the attendance.
Prominent manufacturers from all over
the country were jreent, but the dealer
were conspicuous by their abeense.

a few years ago Kansas City dominsted

that country. Large Jobbing branches are
also working the same havoc fn Oklahoma.

Oris hundred and sixty thousand dollar
waa expended on roads In Douglas county
during the last yesr. This IneTudes over
W5.00 from the inheritance tax fund
which was uaed to pave 10. 1 miles of per
manent roads, and over t"4.0ff spent from
the regular road fund on the unpaved high-
ays of the county.
This Is believed to be $lAi more then
was ever expended from the regular road
fund In any one previous year and the
amount of permanent road work accom
plished is almost equal to the total amount
of paving done in all previous yevrs.
The road committee cf the cojnty board
has Prepared a detailed report showing all
the Items of expenditure by it during the
year. The report la complete, giving the
location and scope of each important piece
of work performed under the direction of
the committee. The report shows these
Items as some of the more Important ex
penditures of The committee from the reg

In addition to the work on unpaved roads
there has been expended out of the regular
road fund on paved roads tl.TS.S on Mili
tary road. tl.ka.7S on Center street and
for dirt roadway a along Dodge and Center
streets, tl.735.G5. and for general repair
work gUBL The remaining smaller Items
bring the total up to the amount
expended out of the regular road fund.
Discussing this part of the work the re
port points out that taQ.tZ.X went Into the
roads for work and materisls used and
only (3.373.66 waa spent for new machinery.
oil. etc., which are designated accessories.
Ths expenditures from the permanent
road fund, which Is made up from Inheri
tance taxe collected In this county,
amounted to tl06.413.C7. Of this the work
on Military avi-nue took t.M0.S3. Q street
t2g.61S.IJ. Calhoun road t47.4u5.S5. and Leav
enworth street tS.2tfc.17. The average cost
per mile of the 10.1 miles of permanent
road work done was !10.H!.70.
F.eferring to this work. Commissioner Uro
says:
'I desire to call the special attention of
the members to the large amount of money
from the permanent road fund thst actu
ally went Into permanent roads. A total
of tll0.O12.s3 was spent on permanent roads.
Every dollar of this went Into the pave
ment except 11 MO spent for inspection. It
must be remembered thst the county engi
neer's office spent much time nd gave
much attention to these roads during the
year. This was done, however, without
cost to the permsnent road fund, aod with
out extra cost In that department except
one extra rod man for part of the time.
The only part of the permanent road fund
used for other than the road Itself is what
was paid inspectors, via.. 11.540, or a little
less than 14 ptr cent at ths amount expended."

County Physician Swoboda says the con
dition of the room used as a tuberculosis
ward at the County hospital is deplorable
He called on members of the county board
to urge them to use all possible haste in
providing a suitable tuberculosis ward at
the institution.
"There are s.x tuberculosis patients in
one small room," he said, "and during
this cold westher it is necessary '.a keep
the rooirr closed up. The air is foul and
reeks with the odors caused by the disease.
Where the patients have to be confined in
a close room the danger of contagion in
crease and the conditions there now are
a menace. At the same time nothing can
be done until a speclsl ward la provided.
They are doing all they can for the pa
tients at the hospital."
The county board already has advertised
for bids for the tuberculosis ward, and the
bids will be opened January SI. A lack' of
a sufficient number of plans has hampered
eon u actors who want to bid. but more
